Claim 12:
13. A system, comprising:
one or more computing systems that implement a network-accessible service, configure to:
implement a first computing node on behalf of a client, wherein the first computing node is implemented as a first virtual machine assigned a virtual address in a virtual computer network overlaid on a substrate network of physical hosts and attaches a storage volume implemented by a non-local block data storage system of the network-accessible service;
in response to a determination that the first computing node is not available or has failed, automatically replace the first computing node with a second computing node, including to:
cause the second computing node to begin actively operating in place of the first computing node, wherein the second computing node is implemented as a second virtual machine assigned with the virtual address and attaches the non-local storage volume implemented by the non-local block data storage system.
