Q

Define Round Robin

A

Distributes client requests across a group of servers. Going down the list of servers in the group, the round‑robin load balancer forwards a client request to each server in turn. When it reaches the end of the list, the load balancer loops back and goes down the list again

Q

Troubleshoot one load balancer failure

A

If one load balancer fails, the secondary picks up the failure and becomes active. They have a heartbeat link between them that monitors status.

Q

Troubleshoot all load balancer failures

A

If all load balancers fail (or are accidentally misconfigured), servers down-stream are knocked offline until the problem is resolved, or you manually route around them.

Q

What is the Slash Dot Effect?

A

Also known as slashdotting, occurs when a popular website links to a smaller website, causing a massive increase in traffic. This overloads the smaller site, causing it to slow down or even temporarily become unavailable.

Q

Active-Active High Availability Cluster

A

An active-active cluster is typically made up of at least two nodes, both actively running the same kind of service simultaneously. The main purpose of an active-active cluster is to achieve load balancing. Load balancing distributes workloads across all nodes in order to prevent any single node from getting overloaded. Because there are more nodes available to serve, there will also be a marked improvement in throughput and response times.

Q

Active-Passive High Availability Cluster

A

An active-passive cluster consists of at least two nodes.. Not all nodes are active. The passive (a.k.a. failover) server serves as a backup that’s ready to take over as soon as the active (a.k.a. primary) server gets disconnected or is unable to serve.

Q

Types of RAID failures

A

RAID arrays often use caching to improve performance.

  • A battery-backed cache is one that can maintain the data in the cache during a power outage, preventing the loss of data still residing in the cache at the moment of the power failure. When this battery fails, it can cause the loss of data.
  • Disk failure disk is unable to be accessed, data corrupted, unusual noises from the disk (click of death).
