Hi Ivan, We are currently working on different levels of fault tolerance. We want to have (in the short term) a best practices document to achieve fault tolerance with OpenNebula.
About a multi-cluster deployment architecture, there is currently two ways of achieving this: * Logic clusters: this is a new feature introduced in the 2.0 version. See [1] for details. * Federation can be achieved using plugins, where for instance the Amazon EC2 driver and server is used to federate different clusters, each one of them managed by one OpenNebula instance. Hope it helps, -Tino -- Constantino Vázquez Blanco | dsa-research.org/tinova Virtualization Technology Engineer / Researcher OpenNebula Toolkit | opennebula.org On Mon, Oct 25, 2010 at 2:17 PM, Ivan Frain <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi everybody, > > I would like to know if there is a failover mechanism for oned ?
