Apart from local clusters and metro area clusters, SUSE® Linux Enterprise High Availability Extension
12 also supports geographically dispersed clusters (GEO
clusters, sometimes also called multi-site clusters). That means you can have
multiple, geographically dispersed sites with a local cluster each. Failover
between these clusters is coordinated by a higher level entity, the so-called
booth. Support for GEO clusters is available as a
separate extension to GEO Clustering for SUSE Linux Enterprise High Availability Extension. For details on how to use and set up
GEO clusters, refer to the Quick Start GEO Clustering for SUSE Linux Enterprise High Availability Extension. It is available from
http://www.suse.com/documentation/ or in your installed system under
/usr/share/doc/manual/sle-ha-geo-manuals_en/.
