Abstract
A system for utilizing a boot prefetch module is disclosed, such as a hyperconverged system with centralized storage. The system may include a controller. The controller may include one or more processors configured to execute program instructions causing the one or more processors to perform a parallelized boot of a plurality of nodes. The performing of the parallelized boot may include retrieving node boot data associated with the respective node from centralized storage. The one or more boot prefetch modules may be configured to perform the retrieving of the node boot data prior to the respective node being booted. The one or more boot prefetch modules may be coordinated in retrieving the node boot data and be configured to perform decryption and/or signature verification.
