The Apache HTTP Server is an open source Web server developed by the Apache Software Foundation. On a Novell Open Enterprise Server (OES) 2 SP3 cluster, you can use Novell Cluster Services to cluster the Web content for your personalized Web sites. The Apache service is not cluster aware and must run on each server in the cluster.
Clustering your Web site content helps make your Web site highly available for your customers. With Novell Cluster Services, if your Web server fails, you can use any of the servers in the cluster to host your Web site, which results in virtually zero down-time for your customers.
This section describes key considerations for configuring the Apache virtual hosts for your personalized Web sites.
