Indeed, that is what I meant. I'm looking at running OpenLDAP as a failover cluster service. I understand what was meant about db failures and how GFS won't help with that. Our LDAP directory is fairly simple and updates/changes are made very infrequently. I've never experienced a db failure but I won't discount that as a possible issue (that's what I have backups for. TSM, I love you). I'll take my chances and run it the way I'd planned with some failover testing before I go production. -- Ryan On Tue, 2005-08-09 at 11:40 -0400, Lon Hohberger wrote: > On Tue, 2005-08-09 at 22:11 +1000, Adam Cassar wrote: > > We run openldap quite extensively here.
