Hello,
sorry if the question has been already discussed in previous threads, but i was wondering if there is a guide on how to configure two physical servers in HA mode as stated in the Administration Manual "In case of a HA head-node setup, the second head-node becomes a NIS slave server. " I configured the second server as NIS slave, but i'm more interested into a redundant configuration with drbd for the whole server. I'm trying to configure drbd to mirror all the partitions/LV on the second server using LCMC but with no success.
Any guide or hint is very welcome :)
Thanks a lot !

there is no guide for HA and there won't be one in the future. Getting HA right requires a lot of experience and if you don't get it right, you'll have a system way less available than without HA. HA is always a custom implementation that we at Q-Leap can provide on a contract basis.
