Novell Cluster Services SDK Documentation

Novell Cluster Services® (NCS) enables a collection of individual network servers (a cluster) to work together to provide users highly available access to their critical network resources including data, applications, and other services.

The Cluster Services SDK supports resource information, node information, and control. You can use it online or offline to migrate resources, find out which nodes are in a cluster, return resource details, find resources based on load script information, and retrieve a list of cluster-enabled pools and volumes. The NetWare® 6 version is able to handle distributed locks and memory sharing.
