I am running a FreeBSD 4.9-REL NFS server. Once every several hours our main NFS server replicates everything to a backup FreeBSD NFS server. We are okay with the gap in time between replication. What we aren't sure about is how to automate the fail-over between the primary to the secondary NFS server. This is for a web cluster. Each client mounts several directories from the NFS server.
Let's say that our primary NFS server dies and just goes away. What then? Are you periodically doing a mount or a file look-up of a mounted filesystem to check if your NFS server died? If so are you just unmounting and remounting everything using the backup NFS server? Just curious how this problem is being solved. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
