Clustering Hardware
A typical clustering setup includes:
• Disks that are shared between nodes
These are needed if the application uses dynamic data as mail servers or
database servers do.
The shared disks may be shared SCSI disks or a storage area network using Fibre
Channel.
• Extra network connectivity between nodes for monitoring heartbeat status.
• A method for redirecting incoming requests.
