Red hat cluster heartbeat multicast interfaces


Hi,

I have a few doubts about the Redhat cluster suite.

Can you have failover nics, so when the nic's that have the multicast traffic fail , it can failover to another ethertnet card ?

Does the GFS sync info go threw multicast traffic ? do you usually route the multicast trafic threw the heartbeat Nics?

by heartbeat I mean 2 nics on a private vlan.

on a 2 node cluster is it a good a idea to have a quorom disk, in service guard for example is a must, in case all the network comunication is lost between both nodes...

Any good docs on Red hat clusters, the ones in the redhat docs page are rubish:

http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/csgfs/

Thnx!.

Hi likidO,
