Description : High-Availability (HA) solution
"SGI's Linux FailSafe is the premiere next generation High-Availability (HA)
solution for business critical applications. It provides a simple way to
make your applications HA without having to resort to rewriting or recompiling
or the need to invest in expensive hardware solutions. Linux FailSafe provides
a robust clustering environment with resilience from any single point of
failure.
Linux FailSafe is architected to scale up to 16 nodes in a cluster with the
cluster members sharing storage. Linux FailSafe and shared storage allows
multiple servers to assume control of data in the event of a failure. At the
point of failure, applications are resumed on the remaining system{s} and
filesystems are automatically made available to their applications.
Plugins are the application-specific interface between Linux FailSafe and the
application or resource that makes it highly-available. The following table
lists the available plugins:
