Abstract: A distributed computing system can be operated in a fault tolerant manner using a set of computing devices. A set of computing devices can tolerate a number of failures by implementing identical replicas of a state machine and selecting proposals. The set of computing devices participating in the distributed computing system by hosting replicas can be modified by adding or removing a computing device from the set, or by specifying particular computing devices for participation. Changing the participating computing devices in the set increases fault tolerance by replacing defective devices with operational devices, or by increasing the amount of redundancy in the system.

Abstract translation: 一种分布式计算系统可以以容错方式使用一组计算设备的操作。 一组计算设备可以通过实现一个状态机的相同的复制品和选择建议容忍失败次数。 该组由托管副本参与分布式计算系统的计算设备可以通过添加或从集合中删除一个计算设备进行修改，或通过用于参与指定特定计算设备。 在该组改变参与计算装置通过，或通过在系统中增加冗余的量替换为操作装置有缺陷的器件提高容错性。
