Clustering

AN!Wiki :: How To :: Clustering

There are currently one paper and four tutorials in various stages of development that may help you in building a cluster.

2-Node Clusters

EL6 - Cluster Stable 3

• Red Hat Cluster Service 3 Tutorial - This is an introduction to RHCS Cluster 3 on EL6. This tutorial is on hold while I finish the EL5 paper.

EL5 - Cluster Stable 2

• Red Hat Cluster Service 2 Tutorial - This is an introduction to RHCS Cluster 2 on EL5.5. This is the updated version of the older 2-Node EL5 Cluster tutorial below and includes proper resource management. A component not introduced before.
• 2-Node EL5 Cluster - This tutorial is back under active development. It should be used for any EL5 based cluster (RHEL, CentOS, etc).
• TLUG Talk: An Introduction to Clustering - A talk on Cluster Stable 2 clustering to the Toronto Linux Users Group on .

Fedora - Cluster Stable 3

I experimented with Fedora as a means to begin learning Cluster Stable 3. I would not recommend using Fedora as a host OS in a production environment! If you wish to use Cluster 3, please purchase a Red Hat subscription and use RHEL 6. If that is not an option, then please stick with Cluster 2 until CentOS 6.x is released. This said, Fedora is an excellent test environment for those wanting to learn Cluster 3 while waiting for a freely available EL5 distribution to become available.

• Two Node Fedora 14 Cluster - Abandoned when I got my Red Hat ISV and switched to RHEL 6. Still the most complete paper.
• Two Node Fedora 13 Cluster - Abandoned when Fedora 13 came out.
