An example of Active/Active for NFS v2/v3 consists of two or more systems actively running NFS and exporting file systems.
Active/Active Configuration Example for NFS v2/v3
Configuration Notes:
- The NFS software must be installed on both servers.
- Initially, Server 1 exports /home/test and Server 2 exports /engdocs/app. In a switchover situation, one system can export both file systems.
- File System A is the underlying file system for export point /home/test. File System B is the underlying file system for export point /engdocs/app.
- The underlying file systems are on different shared disks.
Creating the First Resource Hierarchy on Server 1:
| Server: | Server1 |
| Export Point: | /home/test |
| IP tag: | ip-172.17.100.202 |
| NFS Tag: | nfs-/home/test |
Extending the First Resource Hierarchy to Server 2:
| Template Server: | Server1 |
| Tag to Extend: | nfs-/home/test |
| Target Server: | Server2 |
| Target Priority: | 10 |
Creating the Second Resource Hierarchy on Server 2:
| Server: | Server2 |
| Export Point: | /engdocs/app |
| IP Tag: | ip-172.17.100.203 |
| NFS Tag: | nfs-/engdocs/app |
Extending the Second Resource Hierarchy to Server 1:
| Template Server: | Server2 |
| Tag to Extend: | nfs-/engdocs/app |
| Target Server: | Server1 |
| Target Priority: | 10 |
