- 20:24, 8 September 2023 Node (hist | edit) [1,050 bytes] Digimer (talk | contribs) (Created page with "{{header}} An Anvil! node is a fully redundant host for servers in an Anvil! cluster. Each node is made from a matched pair of subnodes that fully replicate each other. Anvil! nodes can have very different capacity and performance from each other, if you wish. The resources available on a node sets the limit of the servers that can run on that given node. So you may well design a subset of nodes to be resource rich in storage or processing performance, while o...")

This is required so that anything can be taken offline without a maintenance window. In traditional clusters, shared storage is provided by a SAN. These are devices that share raw storage (called LUNs) to provide the backing storage for hosted servers. SANs typical have thorough redundancy; Dual controllers, dual powe...")
- 00:29, 8 September 2023 Live Migration (hist | edit) [2,070 bytes] Digimer (talk | contribs) (Created page with "{{header}} "Live migration" is the process where a server that is actively running on an Anvil! subnode can be moved to the peer subnode, without interrupting it or stopping it. This can happen if, for example, Scancore detects that the active subnode is developing a hardware fault. To minimize the risk of service interruption, the Anvil! will migrate to the peer subnode as a preventative measure to protect your servers. The way this works is that a "pa...")
