Main Topic: Red Hat Cluster Suite and the Global File System
RHCS and GFS are systems for managing clusters of machines. RHCS is a supporting infrastructure to deploy highly available applications that require failover or load balancing while GFS is a filesystem that allows block level access to multiple nodes simultaneously. RHCS and GFS are very important in bringing Linux to the large business.
Andrew Forgue, a Systems Administrator at Oakland University, will talk about RHCS and GFS, what the components are, what they do, and how they fit together. He will also do a short demo about a cluster that is set up at Oakland University.
