The Linux Enterprise Cluster explains how to take a number of inexpensive computers with limited resources, place them on a normal computer network, and install free software so that the computers act together like one powerful server. This makes it possible to build a very inexpensive and reliable business system for a small business or a large corporation. The book includes information on how to build a high-availability server pair using the Heartbeat package, how to use the Linux Virtual Server load balancing software, how to configure a reliable printing system in a Linux cluster environment, and how to build a job scheduling system in Linux with no single point of failure. The book also includes information on high availability techniques that can be used with or without a cluster, making it helpful for System Administrators even if they are not building a cluster. Anyone interested in deploying Linux in an environment where low cost computer reliability is important will find t
A Linux Enterprise Cluster consists of multiple computers on a network that pool their resources and act as a single powerful computer. When built correctly, clusters are fault-tolerant and less prone to downtime than individual computers, and especially when theyŽre Linux-based, theyŽre less expensive than large, monolithic servers. But building a high availability cluster that works is no simple task, and the practical realities donŽt always mesh with the theory.
The Linux Enterprise Cluster takes you through the real-world construction and installation of a reliable, cost-effective Linux cluster that uses commodity hardware and free/open source software to run mission-critical applications. Some of the functions youŽll learn about here include how to:
- Build a high-availability server pair using the Heartbeat package, which keeps tabs on your machines and makes sure theyŽre up and running.
- Use the Linux Virtual Server load-balancing software to distribute the computing workload among cluster nodes.
- Solve tricky problems like configuring a reliable printing system in a Linux cluster environment.
- Build a cluster job-scheduling system in Linux with no single point of failure.
- Utilize high-availability techniques with or without a cluster, so that you can reduce or eliminate system downtime.
If you are looking for a low-cost server solution with unlimited scalability, high availability, and stress-free maintenance, The Linux Enterprise Cluster will show you exactly how to build the cluster that you need.
The CD-ROM contains all of the software needed to build a Linux Enterprise Cluster on top of your Linux distribution, including the Linux kernel, rsync, the SystemImager package , the Heartbeat package, the Linux Virtual Server package, the Mon monitoring package, and the Ganglia package. All figures in the book are also included on the CD-ROM to aid you in pitching a clustering solution to the decision-makers in your organization.
