Fault-Tolerance And Fault-Containment Models For Zoning Clustered Application Silos Into Continuous Availability And High Availability Zones In Clustered Systems During Recovery And Maintenance
Fault-Tolerance And Fault-Containment Models For Zoning Clustered Application Silos Into Continuous Availability And High Availability Zones In Clustered Systems During Recovery And Maintenance
A cluster recovery and maintenance technique for a server cluster having plural nodes implementing a server tier in a client-server computing architecture. A first group of N active nodes each run a software stack comprising a cluster management tier and a cluster application tier that actively provides services on behalf of one or more client applications running in a client application tier on the clients. A second group of M spare nodes each run a software stack comprising a cluster management tier and a cluster application tier that does not actively provide client application services. First and second zones in the cluster are determined in response to an active node membership change involving one or more active nodes departing from or being added to the first group as a result of an active node failing or becoming unreachable or as a result of a maintenance operation involving an active node.
