I am trying to figure out ho to setup EC2 clustering. I am seeing heartbeat as an option. I need something that will monitor the state of a daemon, and not if a daemon is running. For example, say I want httpd to be high availability. Does heartbeat monitor if httpd is not in a hung state, or does it simply do a ps -e |grep httpd? So my question is, how does heartbeat work?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy current project environment setup is having a single server, running on RHEL 5.2, that is constantly receiving incoming data (video and text) over a periodic interval e.g. every 30 minutes. Initial in-house testing projected the server will be generally busy, so we decided to incorporate a second server for load balancing purposes. So now, server A and B will need to be clustered. Once that is done, incoming data will balance out between the two server (or at least that is what I will like to achieve. Note, I'm aware that at the switch side, I'll need to do some additional configuration and that part is covered).
I've been reading on Red Hat Cluster Suite and the Linux Virtual Server (LVS) seems the way to go. However, I noted that the LVS solution require at least a two-tier solution, and that would incur 3 additional servers instead of just 1. So here's my questions:- I looked around and probably know the answer, but I'm gonna ask anyway. Is there a one-tier solution for LVS i.e. have anyone tried or whether it's even feasible. From my reading, it don't seem so but just want another opinion. Is there any other way for me to do the clustering (for load-balancing) without LVS?
Sidenote: I'm currently looking at Ultra Monkey and will be trying out in a while.

I do see the Cluster and VT directories in my redhat_es5.4 directory along with the Server directory. The rest of the files install just fine.
In doing some net and forum searching, I find a reference to a base.repo file that lists the directories but I'm not sure if it's related to creating a yum repository or if not, should it have been created in the redhat_es5.4 directory.
While I've built kickstarts for several years and am comfortable with the file, this is the first time I'm working with rpms outside the main Server path.

To clustering my web server so that it becomes Highly available. Its currently running php, apache and mysql with no redundancy in place. I want to be clustered so that if one node goes down then the second one will automatically take over. I have done that with HA in RHEL but I want to use centos clustering solution for this. Also how willl they share the web contents and mysql database among two nodes I have no idea. I have managed a iscsi target to store contents but it doesn't work as expected.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm looking to set up a clustered mail server, I kind-of know how I'm going to do it but wanted to check if there was a better way. So we have 3 mail servers, running as EC2 instances on Amazon AWS. We were going to achieve clustering by giving all three a shared EBS storage device to store the mail. The mail would be received by any of the three servers (Via postfix) and could be retrieved from any of the three servers (via dovecot). For receiving mail (SMTP), the domains would have 3 MX records pointing to each of the servers but for sending and retrieving mail (SMTP and POP3/IMAP) the three servers would have one DNS A record with 3 IPs associated (I know when using this method for web-servers, the load gets distributed among the IPs under that record but I'm not sure if this will work for SMTP/POP3/IMAP).
What we want is to have 3 servers that share the load equaly but are completely redundant for all services (POP3, IMAP and SMTP). We also need to be able to scale upwards so if we need to add more servers we can do easily. Also the servers must be perfectly synchronized at all times.
I am looking for an open source active clustering product can you please advise me about the best clustering softwares on Linux?

TOP command reports as follows:

Something misterious to me (I'm still a Linux newbie) is that TOP reports a total of 7.5GB used ram but very small percentage for single process (0-1%). Memory consumption starts at 1GB/8GB after reboot and in three days running gradually increases up to 8GB. I'm practising with Linux, but I still miss a lot to understand what's happening on my system. For instance, are there linux kernel logs saved somewhere that I can look at?

We are trying to set up a NIS server on a CentOS system. We need to have a NIS server which can provide NIS authentication to a couple of clients. We are practically new to all this stuff.
Just googled to find some ideas about installing ypserv and ypbind and portmapper. We did all that and also started them successfully. But now the clients are not able to join to the NIS domain . The error log states "YP_DOMAIN NOT BOUND".
I guess we have not entered the /etc/yp.conf, /etc/hosts files properly. Please let us know the detailed steps to setup a NIS server .
Also, please let us know what entries should go into the different /etc/<file_names>? What is meant by HOSTNAME in the /etc/hosts file?
Is there any other files which need to be changed? Are we missing any steps?
Also to add-on, while executing the ypinit command we faced the following error:
At this point, we have to construct a list of the hosts which will run NIS servers. localhost.localdomain is in the list of NIS server hosts. Please cont inue to add the names for the other hosts, one per line. When you are done with the list, type a <control D>. next host to add: localhost.localdomain next host to add:
The current list of NIS servers looks like this:

I have 2 desktops in my possession that I am trying to use: 1 is a 2.4 GHz with a 128 MB Radeon 9800 PRO video card (I think) and 1.5 GB RAM (the system is about 8 years old, but I built it top of the line for back then). The second system is a 3.2 GHz dual core with on board video and 2 GB RAM.The problem is, neither system will run 1080p video's without dropping hundreds of packets producing very choppy audio/video. I was wondering if it is possible to cluster these two systems together to harness both their processing power to run 1080p video? I would just jump in and attempt it, but as I have been reading, it looks like processes aren't actually shared across PC's, but auto determined which PC it will run on based on load, which is an issue since neither can cleanly run the 1080p video.

For hardware, I have a number of dual xeon PE 2650s and would like to use them as efficiently as possible. These are 32bit systems, I anticipate scaling up to 64bit systems when I have a tested, working solution in place. For distro, I am familiar with CentOs, Gentoo and Ubuntu but unsure as to which would be the best foundation, although leaning towards CentOs. For software, I need to realise all the services provided by xampp (Apache, MySql, PHP, Perl, FTP), plus Red5 flash media server.
My current train of thought is;
6 physical servers; 2 Directors/Heartbeat, 2 Apache, 2 Red5
Gigabit private network for connecting the nodes.
CentOs 5.5 on all nodes.
DRDB across the 2 Apache nodes for Apache, MySql, PHP.
DRDB across the 2 Red5 nodes for Red5.

I have a load balancer with 2 web servers behind it. The web servers rsync with cloud storage to update their apache directories 1 time every hour. Apache is just running php pages that pull/push data to a DB so they dont need to be updated that often. However I need to figure out how to implement a Master/Master MySQL setup to have my web servers point to for the PHP stuff. I need to implement it without having a single point of failure. The Load balancers are useless for failover as they only detect availability based on Ping request. So putting a master/master setup behind a Load Balancer is out. what is the best way to setup the master/master mysql in a HA setup without the use of a load balancer provided by the host?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a small home-office network. On that network I have two linux computers, one is a client the other a server.
On the server I have NFS Server setup and mount some NFS exports on the client computer.
On the server I have the firewall on and here it becomes a little tricky.
Since both the server and the client connect to the router the interface (eth1) is theoretically both an internal & external zone.
The router is commercial grade and therefore has a good firewall on it which is also setup. Therefore the firewall on the server is really more of a backup than a necessity. But that's fine, and by having the server's firewall on 'fail2ban' is able to work which I like to have working so I don't want to just turn off the server firewall even though I have good security from the router.
However, when I turn on the server's firewall, the client computer cannot see the NFS server when scanning for server -- done by: clicking on "Choose" next to "NFS Server Hostname" when adding an NFS share in the NFS Client in YaST. Clearly something is being blocked even though I have both "NFS Client" and "NFS Server Service" allowed in the server firewall. The Firewall config. files for these are below.
The Firewall configuration is pretty much "out of the box". That is I have the services I need opened up for the external zone, the other zones are left at their default which means the internal zone, although not used (i.e.: attached to any interface), is completely open.
The perfect solution I guess would be to setup my client computer to connect through a different NIC (perhaps eth0), make that the "Internal Zone" and therefore allow all traffic through to it while still blocking the server from the external zone. However, I cannot make that physical change to my network for now so I am looking for an in between (non-perfect) solution.
In this case I am guessing that means opening up extra NFS ports to the external zone so I have full NFS functionality. I don't mind this because like I said, the router firewall is the main line of defense anyway.
So, given all of the above could someone tell me what I would need to additionally open up in the server firewall to make the NFS server detection work on the client while the firewall was on. Or, if you have a cleverer/better solution without me changing my physical network that would be great.
Hopefully I have written this in enough detail and clearly enough so that all the parameters are clear but if not, feel free to ask me what you like and I'll try to make it clear.
