The lecturer at the recent NG storage talk at Usenix in Anaheim, indicated that it was best to avoid "active/active" and get "active/passive" instead. Does anyone: 1) Know what these things mean? 2) Know why active/passive might be preferred over active/active? If I had to guess, I'd say that active/active means that n servers are all watching n-1 others to decide when they should jump to life, while in active/passive perhaps 1 server is primary, and the passive nodes only monitor that 1 server. Maybe? Just a totally wild guess based on next to nothing. :) Thanks! - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
