3.1.4Cluster Highly Available Applications (revised)
The Cluster Highly Available Applications manual describes how to move applications from a TruCluster Available Server or TruCluster Production Server to a TruCluster Server environment and how to use TruCluster Server functionality to make applications highly available.
A tutorial is provided on how to use the Cluster Application Availability (CAA) subsystem to track the state of members and resources in a cluster and restart or relocate them to another member if a failure in an application is detected.
This manual also describes how to use TruCluster Server application programming interfaces (APIs) to take advantage of cluster technologies such as the distributed lock manager (DLM), cluster alias, and Memory Channel.
