| Description: | Rack Controller for MAAS The MAAS rack controller (maas-rackd) provides highly available, fast and local broadcast services to the machines provisioned by MAAS. You need a MAAS rack controller attached to each fabric (which is a set of trunked switches). You can attach multiple rack controllers to these physical networks for high availability, with secondary rack controllers automatically stepping to provide these services if the primary rack controller fails. . A common configuration is to have a rack controller in each rack, with a fast primary network interface to the rack switch and secondary network interfaces on one or two other nearby racks for high availability redundancy. . This package depends on the necessary components to provide iSCSI, DHCP, TFTP and power management. |
