Abstract

In a method of managing a computing network, an expected behavior of a host is determined. The host is associated with a network resource, and is configured to be switched between active and inactive states. When the host is in the inactive state, a message is transmitted via the network on behalf of the host based on the expected behavior thereof such that the host appears to be in the active state. Related computer systems and computer program products are also discussed.
