HP StorageWorks Using Hummingbird Maestro Server with the HP Windows Clustered Gateway Application Notes (432208-001, October 2006)
Using Hummingbird Maestro Server with the HP Windows Clustered Gateway application notes 13
The following example shows the service monitors created for the two sample virtual hosts.
If a monitor detects that the primary server is down, or that the NFS service is down on that server, it will
fail over the associated virtual host to the backup server.
Configure NFS clients
NFS clients access PSFS file systems by specifying a virtual host and the shared file system. Keep in mind
that all file systems are configured for export on all nodes; however, only one server should be actively
exporting a file system at a time.
To enforce this requirement, NFS clients requesting a particular file system should all go through the same
virtual host. This ensures that only one server (either the primary or a backup for the virtual host) will be
actively exporting the file system.
