Thanks Jeffrey, I think that was a good summary. > 2. Resiliency to network interface or switch failure
If you want that for your DB servers, you'll have do something like this: 1. Assign a routed IP adress (/32) to a loopback interface. 2. Make sure that this IP is reachable even if you have the failures you want to cover with this setup. 3. Configure your server (NetInfo/NetRestrict) to only use that adress. That will give you redundancy at level 3. I will probably do that as well for some of my fileservers as I trust OSPF more to do the right thing than fileserver and cache manager (sorry ;) Then there are a lot of other ways to give you redundancy at level 2 (which I not facy ;) Related: I think it would be nice if there would be some caching so that vos would not need to figure out at every invocation that it can not reach a particular server. Has anyone already written such code? Harald. _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
