“Mission Critical Linux recently released Version 1.2 of its
Convolo Cluster server failover software for Linux. The highlight
of the latest version of Convolo is its support of Network File
System (NFS). According to the company, the new version now allows
a Linux server running NFS to seamlessly failover to a back-up
node, while maintaining the entire NFS configuration of file access
privileges and support for NFS locking protocols.”
“Convolo Cluster was released last summer, and provides for a
2-node failover for Linux servers. With Linux server failover
support of NFS, Mission Critical Linux is adding cluster support to
another important enterprise server tool. Convolo Cluster currently
supports failover for other enterprise-level software for Linux,
such as Oracle, DB2 and MySQL databases. Convolo Cluster runs
on all Linux distributions.”
