    How To Set Up WebDAV With Apache2 On Mandriva 2010.1 Spring This guide explains how to set up WebDAV with Apache2 on a Mandriva 2010.1 Spring server. WebDAV stands for Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning and is a set of extensions to the HTTP protocol that allow users to directly edit files on the Apache server so that they do not need to be downloaded/uploaded via FTP. Of course, WebDAV can also be used to upload and download files.

  • Setting Up An Active/Active Samba CTDB Cluster Using GFS & DRBD (CentOS 5.5)

    Setting Up An Active/Active Samba CTDB Cluster Using GFS & DRBD (CentOS 5.5) This article explains how to set up an Active/Active Samba CTDB Cluster, using GFS and DRBD. Prepared by Rafael Marangoni, from BRLink Servidor Linux Team. We use two nodes, both are active nodes, and the requests are loadbalanced. To replicate data between the nodes we use DRBD. To active/active cluster, we must use a ClusterFS (in this case GFS), to make the two nodes to write on the DRBD resource at same time.

  • High-Availability Storage With GlusterFS On Ubuntu 10.04 - Automatic File Replication (Mirror) Across Two Storage Servers

    ubuntu Author: Falko TimmeTags: , , Comments: 3

    High-Availability Storage With GlusterFS On Ubuntu 10.04 - Automatic File Replication (Mirror) Across Two Storage Servers This tutorial shows how to set up a high-availability storage with two storage servers (Ubuntu 10.04) that use GlusterFS. Each storage server will be a mirror of the other storage server, and files will be replicated automatically across both storage servers. The client system (Ubuntu 10.04 as well) will be able to access the storage as if it was a local filesystem. GlusterFS is a clustered file-system capable of scaling to several peta-bytes. It aggregates various storage bricks over Infiniband RDMA or TCP/IP interconnect into one large parallel network file system. Storage bricks can be made of any commodity hardware such as x86_64 servers with SATA-II RAID and Infiniband HBA.
