A method for managing network failure identifying a plurality of hypervisors, each of the plurality of hypervisors being associated with a plurality of networks, and identifying a first network of the plurality of networks, wherein a first network role is assigned to the first network. The method further includes determining whether the plurality of hypervisors satisfies an unavailability condition, and, in response to determining that the plurality of hypervisors satisfies the unavailability condition, re-assigning the first network role of the first network to a back-up network.
