Gluster users - Mar 2014 - Does QEMU offer High Availability

HI all,

If I use QEMU in Glusterfs 3.4.2 can I achieve true High Availability.

If I have two nodes that are clustering a QEMU image and one of them
goes down will the other QEMU image take its place.

Can I really achieve that ?



Thanks,

Dan

Dan,

This is not really a discussion for the gluster lists.

You should ask KVM people, but to answer you briefly:
- No, KVM is just a hypervisor, it runs virtual machines and that's all 
it does.
You need to run additional RedHat clustering stuff around it to achieve 
HA.
