Abstract

A Hyper-Converged Infrastructure (HCI) monitoring system includes server devices that each provide a respective HCI system that is part of an HCI cluster. A communication queue and a manager subsystem are provided on at least one of the server devices. The manager subsystem provides, in the communication queue, first workload code that is configured to run on a first server device and that is associated with a first HCI system identifier for a first HCI system provided by the first server device. The first HCI system accesses the communication queue, retrieves the first workload code in response to the first workload code being associated with the first HCI system identifier, executes the first workload code, and provides associated results to the communication queue. The manager subsystem retrieves, from the communication queue, the first results, and reports at least one of the first results to an administrator device.
