The High-Availability RH architecture leverages both the capabilities of the native hot-pluggable Linux driver model and the Hot-Swap Kit drivers to offer ultra-quick takeovers while maintaining maximum device serviceability. The Linux hot-pluggable driver model not only provides hot extraction of backplane devices, but also dynamic device insertion. The Linux hot-pluggable driver model is a stated driver architecture that is used by RH drivers to survive system switchovers with a minimum of service interruptions. For further details on this driver model please refer to the Linux Device Drivers Book version 2 published by O’Reilly and Associates. Specifically the Hot- Pluggable driver extension is documented in the PCI Interface chapter.
