What is clustering and load balancing?
What are Clustering and Load Balancing. Server Clustering is a method of turning multiple computer servers into a cluster, which is a group of servers that acts like a single system. Load balancing aims to optimize resource usage, maximize throughput, minimize response time, and avoid overload of any single resource.
What is NFS cluster?
An active/passive NFS Server in a Red Hat High Availability Cluster. The procedure uses pcs to configure Pacemaker cluster resources. In this use case, clients access the NFS file system through a floating IP address. The NFS server runs on one of two nodes in the cluster.
How does NFS work in Kubernetes?
Network File System (NFS) is a standard protocol that lets you mount a storage device as a local drive. Kubernetes allows you to mount a Volume as a local drive on a container. Persistent Volume with NFS – this lets you set up a managed resource within the cluster which is accessed via NFS.
Can you use failover cluster and load balancing?
Failover cluster and Network Load Balancing (NLB) are two different clustering technologies. It is not recommend to install these two features simultaneously on the server.
What should the IP be associated with the NFS cluster?
Ideally iSCSI or SAN Storage. And a IP associated with the NFS share. The cluster will work like this. In case of failure of Server A, Server B will enable the IP associate with the NFS server and take ownership of the shared disk, mount it and start the NFS server.
How does the NFS server work in azure?
The NFS server uses a dedicated virtual hostname and virtual IP addresses for every SAP system that uses this NFS server. On Azure, a load balancer is required to use a virtual IP address. The following list shows the configuration of the load balancer.
Is the fail over cluster for Windows Server 2016 working?
We have created a Failover cluster in Windows Server 2016 environment for 2 machines and third IP address is provided. with both the machines enabled for virtualization. The cluster works well for Fail Over but the load balancing is not happening at all.
