The Heartbeat program is one of the core components of the Linux-HA
|
|
(High-Availability Linux) project. Heartbeat is highly portable,
|
|
and runs on every known Linux platform, and also on FreeBSD and
|
|
Solaris. Ports to other OSes are also in progress.
|
|
|
|
Heartbeat is the first piece of software which was written for the
|
|
Linux-HA project. It performs death-of-node detection,
|
|
communications and cluster management in one process.
|
|
|
|
The Heartbeat program has been around for a while. It has a great
|
|
many strengths, and yet there were a few weaknesses in version 1
|
|
that needed to be addressed:
|
|
|
|
- limitation on two nodes for cluster size
|
|
- inability to monitor resources for their correct operation
|
|
- minimal ability to express dependency information
|
|
|
|
This release removes these limitations.
