I have been using CentOS linux for a while now so I have quite goodknowledge of linux system administration, but I have never installedand configured a CentOS linux cluster. I bought this book to guide methrough the process of installing and configuring a linux cluster onlatest CentOS version 7 with Pacekamer cluster resource manager. Imust say the book did a really good job at it, providing me with astep-by-step guide, detailed description of every step and alsoadditional insights on the parameters used and why to use them. Withthis book I successfully configured a 4 node CentOS 7 cluster withMySQL, Apache, Tomcat and DRBD cluster services. I recommend this bookto everyone who want to set up CentOS linux cluster on CentOS 6 orCentOS 7.

After a while not using the open source Cluster Stack solution, I found myself in trouble to get a cluster running on Centos 7, since the last version of the solution I used was Heartbeat 2.This book got me updated on the new components of the stack as well as well as with the new set of managing tools included on the stack.The author is clear and objective explaining the concepts of a Cluster solution and it's components. When comes to configuring the solution he presents step by step all the options available within stack that could meet the wanted requirements.I truly recommend this book to all of those who need a guidance in order to start implementing the Linux Cluster Stack.

I have been working on RedHat cluster stack cman, corosync & pacemaker implementation for couple of years, yet I thought of buying this book hoping I can acquire more on this technology. That proved to be correct. I love this book, one its structure, second areas it covers. It start with introducing the high availability in general and move on to discuss the CentOS cluster stack. Further the book talks about the underlying protocols such as TOTEM which I have not come across much resources on this area. Book covers both rgmanager (CentOS 6) and pcs(CentOS 7). Overall I feel book covers required theory and practical implementation of the CentOS high availability and recommend the book as a good resource for anyone interested in high-availability setup.

This book is a well laid out approach to CentOS and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL).Outside of official RHEL training books and expensive classes which are extremely technical in nature, this book helps you ease into the basics of systems administration and quickly takes you from noob to engineer focusing on making your CentOS environment HA!From GRUB to Filesystems to Processes this book covers the foundations of CentOS giving you the reader a better grasp and understanding of one of the worlds most powerful and widely used linux operating systems

CentOS High Availability: Leverage the power of high availability clusters on CentOS Linux, the enterprise-class, open source operating system
