Hi Christine,
I could have searched Redhat knowledgebase but thought would be easier if I clarify here. We plan to cluster two RHES, server A & server B (on Ver 5.1AP) a)besides the regular network port for the usual network traffic, we only need one additional network port per server to set up the clustering, is this right? b)what if we want to use 2 network ports, then we have to bond the two network ports on server A & the two network ports on server B - is this right? c)anything we need to do on the Cisco switch's ports end? We are using Cisco 6513 Thanks U On 6/2/08, Christine Caulfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Jakub Suchy wrote: > >> Hi, >> I would like to know, if it's possible to run heartbeat (through cman) >> over two dedicated network NICs.
