Tim> Our processes allow for "fail-over" from a failing server onto a Tim> good server. We do this by using OpenVZ.

Server1 would then have 2 virtual environments, one on Tim> 192.168.1.11/27 and the other on 192.168.2.21/27, and it's Tim> hardware node configured as 192.168.1.10/27.
sounds to be as if you were up to create a bridge on the HN and add the VEs interfaces to that bridge Tim> A "fail-over" is not an automated process, but a restore from the Tim> last backup of the VE onto another hardware node. with the link below and some modification that should be no problem Tim> Will OpenVZ support this type of setup without additional Tim> configuration? yes, I would opt for http://wiki.openvz.org/HA_cluster_with_DRBD_and_Heartbeat Whatever you finally come up with, please put your notes etc. onto the wiki -- maybe write a howto about it ... _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] https://openvz.org/mailman/listinfo/users
