Summary

This book delivers all the practical guidance NT administrators need to deploy powerful, scalable, reliable clustering with Microsoft "Wolfpack." Starting with the fundamentals of clustering and Microsoft's implementation, NT expert David Libertone walks you through everything you need to get clustering deployed in your enterprise. Learn how to plan a cluster implementation for maximum performance and reliability; install your NT cluster; perform day-to-day cluster administration tasks; optimize the performance of your cluster, and troubleshoot problems. The book's detailed coverage of the Win32 clustering API prepares you for NT 5.0's powerful clustering enhancements. An accompanying CD-ROM contains invaluable sample applications, examples and code.
