Node

Main Page :: Node

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 other nodes are designed to host many smaller servers. The choice is yours.

Regardless of which node a server is running on, all servers can be accessed from the central Striker dashboard.

Within a node, servers can run on one subnode or the other. Which subnode is "primary" is defined only by where the servers are running at any given time. Scancore monitors the health of the subnodes and, should the active node develop problems, the hosted servers will live migrate to the peer subnode automatically.
