Embodiment Construction

[0047] The invention provides a mechanism for checkpoint management based on a cluster redundancy model. By combining the concept of redundancy model in the checkpoint management mechanism, high utilization of physical resources, quick response to checkpoint operations and reduced checkpoint management overhead are achieved.

[0048] Referring to Figure 2, it is a schematic diagram of the management process of the checkpoint in the cluster of the present invention, and the specific steps include:

[0049] S21. Set a checkpoint management flag for the application in advance, indicating whether to perform checkpoint management based on the redundancy model.

[0050] The present invention introduces a checkpoint management flag in the application program model information in the cluster configuration information, and the flag is used to indicate whether to perform checkpoint management on the application program based on the redundancy model. Checkpoint management flags can be B...

Abstract

The present invention discloses a management method of a checkpoint in a cluster, which comprises two steps. Firstly, the management symbol of the checkpoint of an application is acquired; secondly, the parameter values of the management symbol of the checkpoint are judged, if the parameter values of the management symbol of the checkpoint indicate that the checkpoint is managed on the basis of a redundancy model, then the checkpoint of the application is managed on the node associated with the application according to the redundancy model of the application, or else the checkpoint of the application is managed on all nodes in the cluster. The present invention can realize the management of the checkpoint of the application on the basis of the redundancy model, thus reducing the occupation of the physical resources of the nodes in the cluster, the time expended in the management of the checkpoint and the management expense of the checkpoint.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to cluster management technology in the communication field, in particular to a management method for checkpoints in a cluster. Background technique [0002] Checkpoint is a mechanism that assists in fast service switching between applications by saving the running state of the application. This mechanism can be considered as a service, called checkpoint management service. The application saves its running state by using the checkpoint management service. During the service switching process, for example, the service provided by the application A1 is switched to the application A2, and the application A2 can use the application A1 saved in the checkpoint. The running state of A1 to restore the service previously provided by A1. The checkpoint management service is used to ensure the high availability of the cluster. For example, if an application in the active state fails unexpectedly for some reason, the application in the stan...
