ABSTRACT:
A method and system to resolve a cluster failure in a networked environment is described. The method can include: configuring the application program in a directory based distributed configuration repository on the first cluster; replicating the application program's configuration via the external directory to the second cluster; mirroring the application's data on a first mirrored volume to a second mirrored volume; detecting failure of the first cluster; activating the second mirrored volume at the second cluster; and restarting the application program on the second cluster.
