High-Availability

[DanG]

LVS is a very good software package that is constantly under development and
use. linux-ha.org works with LVS collaboratively.
http://oscar.openclustergroup.org/tiki-index.php OSCAR is another open
source project for cluster builds you should look at. If you want an easy
cluster to setup and administer I would look at ClusterKnoppix which is
based on the Knoppix liveCD with OpenMosix clustering integrated. This
should make for a pretty easy install/setup http://bofh.be/clusterknoppix/

Subject: [TLUG]: High-Availability

Hi all,

   I am working on developing a small cluster of servers and I was (am)
looking at LVS (Linux Virtual Server) and it -seems-- to be able to do
exactly what I want. That is; create a server cluster transparent to the
user for hosting mail, web, file serving and LAN authentication.

   Why I am posting though is that most of the pages off of
http://linux-ha.org seem to be a few years out. Am I missing any more modern
options, by chance? Does anyone have any general comments or suggestions for
what I am trying to do?

Thanks!!

Madison
