Arbitrator
All > Technology > Storage
- Nodes in a disaster tolerant architecture that act as tie-breakers in case all of the nodes in a data center go down at the same time. These nodes are full members of the Serviceguard cluster and must conform to the minimum requirements. The arbitrator must be located in a third data center to ensure that the failure of an entire data center does not bring the entire cluster down. See also quorum server.
