Abstract

Systems and methods for managing system resources on distributed servers are discussed. The servers may determine, using control circuitry, a system resource metric of the server. The system resource metric may be compared with a pre-determined threshold value. Based on the comparison of the system resource metric with a pre-determined threshold value, the server may determine whether to initiate maintenance on the server. If it is determined that maintenance should be initiated, the server may enter a not-in-service mode and the server may initiate maintenance. Once maintenance is complete, the server may exit the not-in-service mode.
