Abstract

A computer program product is provided for extending network services addresses, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, where the program instructions are executable by a processor to cause the processor to identify, by the processor, an event affecting a node, wherein the node provides external access to a network using an Internet Protocol (IP) address, in response to identifying the event, identify, by the processor, an attribute associated with the IP address, and based on the attribute associated with the IP address, determine, by the processor, whether to move the IP address to another node.
