Hi Fred -
We don't use any cluster software. Our backup server is just a full copy
of our data and nothing more. So in the event of a failure of the master
our server clients don't automatically fail over or anything nifty like
that. This filer isn't customer facing, so in the event of a failure of
the master there is no customer impact. We use a slightly modified zrep to
handle the replication between the two.
thanks,
liam
