Abstract

Embodiments detect and group multiple failure events to enable batch processing of those failure events, such as in a virtual datacenter executing a plurality of virtual machines (VMs). A long timer, adaptive short timer, and adaptive polling frequency enable a computing device to efficiently detect and group the failure events that may be related (e.g., resulting from one failure). The grouped failure events are processed in parallel thereby reducing the time for recovery from the failure events.
