Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to a cluster storage system and a split-brain processing method thereof. Background technique
[0002] A cluster is a group of independent hosts interconnected by a high-speed network that form a group and are managed as a single system. In a cluster, in order to connect multiple independent hosts into an overall cluster, it is necessary to establish a heartbeat network for communication between multiple independent hosts, and the heartbeat network is usually an external switch.
[0003] Cluster technology is widely used in the field of storage technology. In the prior art, multiple storage controllers and their corresponding backup controllers can be connected as an overall cluster through control channels, and these control channels constitute a heartbeat network, and each pair of controllers (including a storage controller and a backup Disks can be attached to the contro...
