Figure 2. Hot-Standby Configuration
In this configuration, there is one cascading resource group consisting of the four disks, hdisk1 to hdisk4, and their constituent volume groups and file systems. Node 1 has a priority of 1 for this resource group while node 2 has a priority of 2. During normal operations, node 1 provides all critical services to end users. Node 2 may be idle or may be providing
The advantage of this type of a configuration is that you can shift from a
Rotating Standby Configuration
This configuration is the same as the previous configuration except that the resource groups used are rotating resource groups.
In the
If the cluster is using rotating resource groups, reintegrating nodes do not reacquire any of the resource groups. A failed node that recovers and rejoins
