Abstract
A system allowing for path monitoring and notification in a system of switching elements and processing elements is provided. An exemplary technique uses a monitoring and notification module configured to generate and output monitoring messages across multiple paths defined by the plurality of switching elements and the plurality of processing elements, detect a fault in the system based on the monitoring messages, and generate and output multiple alert messages across the multiple paths to initiate recovery from the fault As such, a single element (or group of elements) does not become isolated from the rest of the elements in the system.
