Abstract

A method, apparatus, and computer-usable medium for retrieving a first entry from a collection of trickle confirmation entries (associated with a first collection of resources that require configuration confirmation) from a trickle confirmation queue. A first resource among the first collection of resources associated with the first entry from the collection of trickle confirmation entries is queried for a potential change in configuration of the first resource. If a potential change in configuration is detected, the first entry from the collection of trickle confirmation entries is inserted on a trickle update queue. A first entry from a collection of trickle update entries (associated with a second collection of resources that require configuration update) is retrieved from the trickle update queue. Configuration information regarding a first resource associated with the first entry from the collection of trickle update entries is updated.
