The following figure shows a schematic representation of Systemwalker Operation Manager operation with cluster system.

The terminology for describing nodes and processes in cluster system varies from cluster system to cluster system. However, the descriptions in this manual use the following terms:

Active node

This is the node where jobs normally run.

Standby node

This node is on standby to take over jobs when the active node fails.

Failover

This refers to the transfer of jobs from the active node to the standby node when errors occur.

Shared disk

This is the disk that is shared between the active node and the standby node.

Logical IP address

This is the virtual IP address used by the cluster system and is common to both the active node and standby node.

Physical IP address

This is the IP address specific to each node.

However, the terminology of relevant cluster system is also used to describe windows, and in other cases where the use of such terminology makes explanation easier to understand.

Daemons that can be registered with cluster system

The following Systemwalker Operation Manager daemons can be registered as resources with cluster system:

Information that can be automatically reflected in the cluster system

The following information can be automatically reflected in both the active node and the standby node of the cluster system:

Settings can also be made so that "schedule information, power schedule information and completion monitoring information for SYSTEM_CALENDAR" under "Calendar information" and "Application startup information" under "Service/application startup information" are not reflected automatically.

Failover trigger

Failover takes place when an error occurs in the resources registered with the cluster systems.
