Pool Registrar

In computing, a Pool Registrar (PR) is a component of the reliable server pooling (RSerPool) framework which manages a handlespace. PRs are also denoted as ENRP server or Name Server (NS). The responsibilities of a PR are the following:

• Register Pool Elements into a handlespace,
• Deregister Pool Elements from a handlespace,
• Monitor Pool Elements by keep-alive messages,
• Provide handle resolution (i.e. server selection) to Pool Users,
• Audit the consistency of a handlespace between multiple PRs,
• Synchronize a handlespace with another PR.
