Master-Backup – Runs as a slave unit and monitors the operation of the stack master. If the
master unit fails, you must select the Master-Backup manually to assume the Stack-master
role. If a Master-Backup becomes the Master Unit, another Master-Backup will need to be
selected manually. One of the Slave units will not automatically become a Master-Backup.
•
Slave – Runs a slave version of the Switching Algorithm, which allows the applications
running on the master unit to control the resources of the slave unit.
