Running only 3 nodes also creates issues when there is a failure as you now can't reach quorum and need to immediately get the node back up.

Ай бұрын

My guess is when you have more servers, the load on each is decreased, such that occasionally one can take a backseat. So with an even number of servers, by this logic, the failure of one server would not compromise the process and it would function as normal since the “extra” would not be needed right away and thus have more time to get resolved and back up and running. Networking allows the servers to handoff tasks to neighboring servers in the network. This is also why it was mentioned in this video that “two entire servers” can go down and not cause an issue and nobody would even notice. Also, the odd number discrepancy to check for biases, that’s usually an ideal for if you have multiple tasks computing at once that put the network of servers at full load, but otherwise an even number will still work fine as one is backup.

That axle AI is crazy! Can't wait to see more historical clips showing up in new videos!

The concept of cluster voting was developped by Digital Equipment Corp in the 1980s for its VMS clusters. The votes and quorum mechanism did not handle just failure of a node, but more importantly prevented a node that left the cluster from continuing to function (thus proventing it from accessing drives without enforcing locks/synchrinization with the other nodes). (called cluster partitioning). In the case of a 2 node cluster, you could designate a drive as quorum disk and give it votes, so any node in the cluster that still saw that/those drives would get the votes and could then continue. (in VMS clusters, drives could either be served by a node (and accessed from other nodes via network) or be standalone with direct hardware links to each node. (Digital developped extention to SCSI (called DSSI) to allow multiple hosts to access the same SCSI bus so multiple nodes coul write directly to the same physical drives). (later on, I beleive SCSI did get that functionality). The freezing of a node to prevent partitioning is very clitical to prevent a node that lost its connection to the other nodes from continuing to write to disks or perform tasks without the synchronization with the other cluster nodes. (in a cluster, there was a single lock database so when a process on a node too a lock on a file (or area of file) or a resource, that lock would exist on all nodes so processes on other nodes would not get that lock until first one released it). From a failover POV: You can have 2 nodes doing work since the locking is synchronized, so when one node fails, the other one continues and new network connectiosn all go to the second node instead of being split between the two. The other way is to have node 1 take and get lock and do all the work. Node 2 requests the lock but is put on hold because lock is unavailable. When node 1 goes down, node 2 gets the lcok and then processes all the work. Tandem NonStop (used for mission critical stuff such as Interac/credit card) has different fault tolerance. In the same chassis, a process would run on a single CPU/RAM, but a copy would run on a designated CPU/RAM, but basically have it writes to disk/network disabled. Both processes got the same data from network/disk. So the backup was a copy of the main one, and shoudl main one go down, the backup tok over right where the backup failed since the backup had identical RAM, process state and conections to network etc. However, while VMS clusters could be spread across multiple buildings (and up to 96 nodes), the Tandem Nonstop was within a single chassis in 1 computer room. so fault tolerant within chassis, but not disaster tolerant. A mere smb file server just blindly executes writes/reads from any node to any area of disk/file and when you have different windows instances accessing the same time, the last one writing to it wins.

This is the kind of stuff that is exciting for me in IT. Although I would not go this extreme and aim for maximum value for money, it is fun to watch.

Excellent comment. Really excellent. The serious stuff for HA is not interesting for a general audience. Is pretty boring, even for us IT professionals. Is not "cost vs risk", it doesn't have the features for being redundant and secure. Is like building "the world's most powerfull PC" with $200, and then argue that well... it has prioritized costs... A recomendation? Just do it right, and if it is not right for a video, don't make a video about it, period.

@@maxhennessy6676 sure, but that doesn't make it HA... that's my point. You can't say "it's a discount HA", since there is a real name for it... just a failover cluster. Even if it load balances, still not HA. HA has many requirements and physical distribution is one...

12:41 I laughed way harder than i should have at that linus pillow

love the editing on this

Jake is the kind of employee that brings real value to an organization. Vote party for maximum raise at performance review time! 👏🏾👏🏾💯🔥

I love the not jank era of Linus tech tips. This is more like a proper corporate setup than home lab setup.

Let’s get some popcorn and watch Linus drop it

I work at an auto plant. Downtime on the main line = $1,000/minute. And the contracting companies do get charged that much if they're the cause...

The last 10 minutes with the AI labeling proces is super interesting to me. thks

You should try an IBM server sometimes!

NEW NEW NEW WHONNOCK!!

I love the James Bond-esque video caption at 1:48. You could also follow up to this video with: "Drive Another Day"...

So glad the intro is back!

Jake is looking great. Looks like he’s been hitting the gym quite a bit

Can you guys do a recap video of the realistic timeline/data requirements for an ongoing business that compliments this video by recapping every video like this one in your past(like all 7 or so with the title "we don't have enough space", "winnock server died", "we're upgrading again!") You've done many of these videos with the same theme, and a long term analysis of "Did we meet the goals we set out to achieve" with these upgrades over the past decade would be very fascinating and useful for the industry. Obv you are a special case since you output video but it would be cool to get some insight on both the long term decision making and how it's changed every time you do one of these.

Don't think I would be this interested in the video, but I got absolutely hooked on the fascinating tech
