1.4. Cluster Configuration Considerations
When configuring a Red Hat High Availability Add-On cluster, you must take the following considerations into account:
- Red Hat does not support cluster deployments greater than 16 full cluster nodes. It is possible, however, to scale beyond that limit with remote nodes running the
pacemaker_remoteservice. For information on thepacemaker_remoteservice, see Section 8.4, “The pacemaker_remote Service”. - The use of Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) for obtaining an IP address on a network interface that is utilized by the
corosyncdaemons is not supported. The DHCP client can periodically remove and re-add an IP address to its assigned interface during address renewal. This will result incorosyncdetecting a connection failure, which will result in fencing activity from any other nodes in the cluster usingcorosyncfor heartbeat connectivity.
Where did the comment section go?
Red Hat's documentation publication system recently went through an upgrade to enable speedier, more mobile-friendly content. We decided to re-evaluate our commenting platform to ensure that it meets your expectations and serves as an optimal feedback mechanism. During this redesign, we invite your input on providing feedback on Red Hat documentation via the discussion platform.
