Chapter 6. High Availability (HA)
Here the incoming connections are handled by the VSM server which distributes the connections to the
three VSM agent machines. If the VSM server goes down, no new connections can occur. The VSM
server is a single point of failure.
6.1.2. Solution - Elimination of Single Point of Failure
In order to eliminate the single point of failure, we configure the VSM server in a HA configuration
where two machines share the responsibility for keeping the service running.
The two machines are in constant contact with each other, each checking if the other one is up and
running. If one of the machines goes down for some reason, for example hardware failure, the other
machine detects the failure and automatically takes over the service with only a short interruption for the
users. No action is needed from the system administrator.
6.1.3. Theory of Operation
Figure 6-2. A ThinLinc HA cluster setup
In a HA setup, as illustrated in Figure 6-2 two equal machines are used to keep the VSM server running.
One of the machines is primary, the other one is secondary. The primary machine is normally handling
VSM server requests, but if it fails, the secondary machine kicks in. When the primary machine comes
online again, it takes over again. That is, in normal operation, it’s always the primary machine that’s
working, the secondary is just standby, receiving information from the primary about new and deleted
sessions, maintaining its own copy of the session database.
