  • Add-Ons for Red Hat Enterprise Linux
    DATASHEET ADD-ONS FOR RED HAT ENTERPRISE LINUX WORKLOAD AND MISSION-CRITICAL PLATFORM ENHANCEMENTS In conjunction with Red Hat® Enterprise Linux®, Red Hat offers a portfolio of Add-Ons to extend the features of your Red Hat Enterprise Linux subscription. Add-Ons to Red Hat Enterprise Linux tailor your application environment to suit your particular computing requirements. With increased flexibility and choice, customers can deploy what they need, when they need it. ADD-ON OPTIONS FOR AVAILABILITY MANAGEMENT High Availability Add-On Red Hat’s High Availability Add-On provides on-demand failover services between nodes within a cluster, making applications highly available. The High Availability Add-On supports up to 16 nodes and may be configured for most applications that use customizable agents, as well as for virtual guests. The High Availability Add-On also includes failover support for off-the-shelf applications like Apache, MySQL, and PostgreSQL. When using the High Availability Add-On, a highly available service can fail over from one node to another with no apparent interruption to cluster clients. The High Availability Add-On also ensures data integrity when one cluster node takes over control of a service from another clus- ter node. It achieves this by promptly evicting nodes from the cluster that are deemed to be faulty using a method called “fencing” that prevents data corruption. www.redhat.com DATASHEET ADD-ONS For RED Hat ENterprise LINUX 6 Resilient Storage Add-On Red Hat’s Resilient Storage Add-On enables a shared storage or clustered file system to access the same storage device over a network.

  • An Overview of Red Hat Linux
    Chapter 1 An Overview of Red Hat Linux In This Chapter • Introducing Red Hat Linux • What is Linux? • Linux’s roots in UNIX • Common Linux features • Primary advantages of Linux • What is Red Hat Linux? • Why choose Red Hat Linux? • The culture of free software Linux was a phenomenon waiting to happen. The computer industry suffered from a rift. In the 1980s and 1990s, people had to choose between inexpensive, market-driven PC operating systems from Microsoft and expensive, technology-driven operating systems such as UNIX. Free software was being created all over the world, but lacked a common platform to rally around. Linux has become that common platform. For several years, Red Hat Linux has been the most popular commercial distribution of Linux. With the latest versions of Red Hat Linux (reflected in the Fedora Core and Red Hat Enterprise Linux distributions), Red Hat, Inc. has taken steps to offer both free-flowing community versions and well-supported commercial versions of Red Hat Linux. NOTE: Because of significant overlap between Fedora Core and Red Hat Enterprise Linux, I use the term Red Hat Linux to refer to technology in both distributions. If software I describe is missing (primarily from Enterprise, which doesn't include many games and personal software), you can add the software later. Check your CDs, then check yum repositories described in Chapter 5 to find software RPMs. Introducing Red Hat Linux With the recent split between community (Fedora) and commercial (Red Hat Enterprise Linux) versions of Red Hat Linux, Red Hat has created a model that can suit the fast-paced changes in the open source world, while still meeting the demands for a well-supported 4 Part I: Getting Started in Red Hat Linux commercial Linux distribution.
