9. Clustering
Clusters are multiple computers (nodes) working in concert to increase reliability, scalability, and availability to critical production services. High Availability using Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 can be deployed in a variety of configurations to suit varying needs for performance, high-availability, load balancing, and file sharing.
The following major updates to clustering are available in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.1
- Rgmanager now supports the concept of critical and non-critical resources
- System Administrators can now configure and run a cluster using command line tools. This feature provides an alternative to manually editing the cluster.conf configuration file or using the graphical configuration tool, Luci.
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux High Availability on Red Hat Enterprise Linux KVM hosts is fully supported
- Comprehensive SNMP Trap support from central cluster daemons and sub-parts
- Additional watchdog integration allows a node to reboot itself when it loses quorum
The development library packages provided in the High Availability, Load Balancer, and Resilient Storage Add-On channels are not considered supported nor are their ABIs or APIs guaranteed to be consistent.
