View 14 RepliesI'm probably dreaming, but I have a hobby project in mind that I would like feed I have an opportunity to purchase a 3 year old fully populated (14 x 3Ghz dual Xeon nodes) IBM bladecenter relatively inexpensively.I thought it would be fun to set it up as a beowulf cluster with open source xen and test the market to see what people would pay for Private virtual machines.
My thoughts are to use 64 bit Centos 5 as a base to get the beowulf cluster up and then load xen.I haven't really looked at the market but I figure I should be able to run 50 private virtual machines charging say $50 per month. I figure I can use rsync to backup the virtual machines to a different location. I plan to connect to linux based Network Storage running 3 x sata 1TB drives, probably via iSCSI. Along with the drive capacity currently on the blades I should get 2-3Tb online capacity over a Gbit network. (Cisco 14 + 4 network switch module)
I realise I have a bit of setup work to do and before I go investing a lot of time and a little money I'd appreciate some pragmatic advice as to why this may be a stupid venture.
I am working in a project that needs to set up an Apache Web Cluster. The cluster needs to be High-availability (HA) cluster and Load-balancing cluster. Someone mentioned the use of Red Hat Cluster Suite, but, honestly, I can't figure out how it works, I haven't been able to configure it correctly. The project currently have two nodes, but we need to support at least three nodes in the cluster.

There is no luci_admin and even if I manage to start luci service, I get a blank white screen when I try to open it from the browser. I've googled a bit and found that I'd might be able to setup GFS if I manage to build cluster.conf manually and start the cluster suite, but I cannot find documentation on how to create cluster.conf anywhere. If anyone knows how to setup GFS2 without a cluster suite or how to configure cluster.conf.

After testing it in the lab, I tried to install a new cluster and received the following error: cman not started: Cannot start, cluster name is too long or other CCS error /usr/sbin/cman_tool: aisexec daemon didn't start I've checked the internet for that error, but nothing. I decided to to take the example from cluster.conf man, which looks like that :
[Code]...
And still I get the same error. I can find my servers both from DNS (FQDN and short name) and they also appear in /etc/hosts.
configure a separate NIC for the heartbeat. what i need to add to cluster.conf to achieve this?

I have install the rock cluster on the main server . and I want to connect the client with the PXE boot . when I starting the client then it boot from the PXE boot into the mode of compute node. but it ask the where is to be stored the I have give the path..then server says that not able to find the directory path.
Steps:-
1) insert-ethers
2) client is started with the PXE boot.
3) it detects the dhcp .
4) At last it demand where is to be started by cd-rom, harddisk ,nfs etc.
then I started with the nfs and I have given the lanIp of server.and server is detecting the client but client is not finding the filesystem directory. into export partition directory but it is not taking path.
PATH:-
/export/rock/install it is not finding this path then it is not able to start the o/s from PXE boot..Is there any solution and manual of rock or anyother solution then u can reply to me...
I have read several articles online trying to get a grasp and understand on a simple question. What is main difference and functions of cloud server infrastructure and cluster server infrastructure
To my understanding, the the basic setup is sort of identical in a way. They both have a master server (3 GHz, 2GB RAM 50GB HDD), from there it connectes to a switch, then a number of nodes (each 2 GHZ, 4 GB RAM, 100GB HDD) connect to the switch.
The cluster combines node resources so it looks like one computer (5 nodes = 2GHZ x 5, 4GB x 5, 100GB x 5 = 10GHZ, 20GB RAM, 500GB HDD). If this is correct, this sounds good for possibly Database or File server. The resources on cluster would be constant. Example would be Database Server. While running DB server it starts to slow down because of all the data it is trying to store and retreive. If you ned more resources, just add another node.
The cloud uses only resources it needs to run (same numbers as cluster). This is good for Database or Web Server. Example: Web server is hosting 10 domains each with 20 pages. One hour it uses 3 GHZ and 8 GB RAM, next hour it is getting heavy traffic so it uses 9 GHZ, 15GB RAM.
But from what I have gathered and read, this is how I am interpreting the information and understaing it. Plain and simple.
A Supercomputing cluster running a linux OS would have, say, 100 nodes. The hub (I think that's the term) would be running Gnome, KDE, or some other desktop gui. Any vital programs would also be running from the hub. Any other processes, however, would be delegated to a hub, much like individual cores in a multi-core tower. That way, you could be running 500+ intensive programs, relative to the nodes' power, and they would all run perfectly smoothly.

1. Both machines have Mysql server, Apache web server and Zabbix server.
2. Mysql database and web pages reside in SAN.
3. Active machine holds virtual IP and mounted shared disk.
4. We have also included a script in RHCS which takes care of starting Mysql, Apache and zabbix server on the machine which turns active when cluster switches over.
The above configuration holds good if Active machine goes down as a result of hardware failure or Reboot. What if, If any one service say Apache/Mysql/zabbix running on active hangs or become unresponsive.How can we handle this scenario ? Please advice.
I need to build a cluster with vmware with 2 linux nodes but I'm a bit of a begginer. I have this questions:
Wich vmware to use (server, workstations)? Do I need a server OS? Wich linux OS to use? how to create the cluster? How do I test it? How do I run a program in paralel?
I was following [URL] for the cluster setup. But things dint work out. One Doubt to ask "Do I need the services cman, ccsd and rgmanager one at a time on the both machine. I have been running it through script.

I'm building a 3-node cluster. I have created ocfs filesystems and mounted them on the first two nodes. But while mounting them on the third node , i'm getting this error for 8 of the total luns. all these 8 luns are of 1GB size.
I've unmounted these 8 luns from the other node and tried to mount in the third node ... and then it was working and again the error occurs in the second node. My observation was for some reason these particular luns are not allowing the third node.
mount.ocfs2: Invalid argument while mounting /dev/mapper/voting1 on /voting1. Check 'dmesg' for more information on this error.
dmesg output was :

I am trying to configure redhat cluster first time but no idea how to do it. I am using rhel 5.2. I have copied cluster rpms from redhat media and tried to install them but facing alot of dependencies problem. Can some one please guide how can i do redhat clustering from start. I am doing this for configuring single node clustering for zimbra suite but it is the requirement to configure redhat cluster first. One more thing i am using two virtual machines installed by using virtual box.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to recover movie files from my TNT receiver hard drive but it corrupts its FAT32 allocation table (crappy cheap device...)
Using dosfsck is useless because the correct file length is the cluster length, not the (shorter) one in the table, and dosfsck only proposes to shorten the file, which I won't do.
Question: how to recover a file using the FAT cluster chain instead of using the stored length in the FAT table?
I have made a cluster between two server.
In luci I can see that my cluster is green and the two nodes to.

I've looked all over the web, but don't see an answer to my particular case. I'm in GParted in Ubuntu Live CD 9.10 amdx64 To prep for Ubuntu install, I'm attempting to resize and re-partition my second hard drive which was FORMERLY my primary boot drive for Vista before it crashed a few days back. It is CURRENTLY my Vista User data file and is about 250Gb in size. The drive is a SATA 500Gb total.
But GParted now all of a sudden gives me several "Cluster accounting failed at blah blah: missing cluster in $Bitmap" error messages. Is there a good way to 'fix' these errors? (besides reformatting it) I deleted the long-winded background, so let me know if you need more info. Short version: I installed vista by reformatting my 120Gb data drive as the primary master now. Then I plugged in my 'previous' 500Gb Sata drive, and pointed Window's User folder to my old User folder, and voila, was back up and running in Vista... minus all my programs. but now, both drives are recognized by GParted as "boot" drives.

I am currently trying to setup a cluster using heartbeat. Unfortunatly it does not do what I want to do. I am using heartbeat 2.1.4-11 on a readhat system. I am using the the cib for configuration. What I want to do is the following: I have two Nodes. I want to run a clone resource on both nodes. It's named I want to run as a clone. This works fine.Additionally I want to have two virtual IP adresses. One should be set on Node 1 the other on Node 2. This works fine as well. I want to set dependencies between the resources. And this is where I have problems. What I want to achive: In case named is not able to run on a node, the vIP should switch to the other node (which then will have both vIPs). In case both nodes are able to run named, there should be one vIP on each node. Sounds simple, but does not work.Accourding to the heartbeat docu this an be achieved by using
