Adi, Your question seems slightly confused. If you want to implement a fail-over Apache service you need one two node cluster, not two single node clusters. Separate clusters are only relevant to disaster recovery systems, usually using a 2 node cluster and a single node cluster with the addition of the Sun Cluster Geographic Edition software.
A quorum device, usually a disk, allows the remaining cluster node to stay up when it loses contact with the other cluster node. Please read the Solaris Cluster manuals for more info. In particular the concepts guide and then the Apache Data Service guide. Hope that helps, Tim --- On 06/10/09 16:07, Aditya wrote: > Hello All , > I am new to clusters and want to try to implement failover on an Apache > Tomcat server. > I have installed SXCE and configured a single node cluster on 2 computers.I > would now like to test how Sun cluster failover takes place.CAn anybody guide > me.Is there any documentation of steps available.Also what is a quorum? > Regards, > Adi. -- Tim Read Staff Engineer Solaris Availability Engineering Sun Microsystems Ltd Springfield Linlithgow EH49 7LR Phone: +44 (0)1506 672 684 Mobile: +44 (0)7802 212 137 Twitter: @timread ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ NOTICE: This email message is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
