6.1 Overview of cluster systems
SLM - Manager and SLM - UR can be run in cluster systems intended for achieving high availability.
A cluster system consists of multiple server systems that are linked together to run as a single system. The purpose of such a system is to ensure seamless operation in the event of a server failure by continuing business operations on another server.
By running SLM - Manager in a cluster system, you can continue monitoring the status of services, even when a failure occurs in SLM - Manager. If the service performance obtained as monitoring results is managed by using a shared disk, the service performance from before a failure can be inherited.
Running SLM - UR in a cluster system makes it possible to continue collecting HTTP packets when a failure occurs in SLM - UR.
The overview and components of a cluster system for SLM - Manager and SLM - UR are the same as for a cluster system supported by JP1/Base. For details, see the JP1/Base User's Guide as necessary
