Abstract
Techniques for peer node recovery can include: receiving a notification regarding an occurrence of a trigger condition which indicates to perform recovery processing for a first storage device of a first node, wherein the first storage device is used as a boot device for the first node; and responsive to receiving the notification of the trigger condition, performing recovery processing for the first storage device of the first node comprising: performing a network boot of the first node over an internal network connection using a preboot execution (PXE) server of the second node; reimaging the first storage device of the first node using content from a second storage device of the second node, wherein the content includes a bootable partition comprising an operating system; and using the bootable partition of the first storage device of the first node, booting the first node to load and run the operating system.
