About This Manual
This manual describes new failover procedures for AFP, NFS, and SMB in OS X v10.4. The failover model consists of two nodes – a master node and a backup node – each running a daemon that monitors, announces, and synchronizes changes to file service settings. Third-party software can use the NSDistributedNotificationCenter to issue messages or to receive notifications of changes to configuration settings or of cluster events, such as refresh, failover, and terminate.
