Caché ECP Clusters on Red Hat
Enterprise Linux
Caché ECP Clusters is a high availability feature that enables failover from one ECP data
server to another, using operating system level clustering to detect a failed server. Caché ECP
Clusters technology has been tested and is supported on Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version
4. This document contains details of how to configure the cluster and is organized into the
following sections:
• Pre-installation Planning
• Configuring the Cluster Services for Caché
• Configuring the Second Node
• Adding Caché to the Cluster Services
• Maintaining the Caché Registry When Upgrading
For detailed information on configuring the cluster on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux, see the
Red Hat Cluster Suite, Configuring and Managing a Cluster, at the Red Hat Web site.
1 Pre-installation Planning
This section outlines the requirements for configuring the cluster system. Subsequent sections
describe the steps to install, define, and configure the various components of the cluster. To
plan the process for setting up the cluster system, first determine whether the configuration
is a hot-standby configuration or an active-active configuration. In a hot-standby configuration
only one node is running Caché at a time.
In an active-active configuration each node is running its own instance of Caché. The nodes
do not have direct access to the same databases; each database is assigned to one Caché
instance or the other. You can network the Caché instances with ECP and use namespace
definitions to project the same data from both nodes.
An active-active configuration requires the following tasks:
