In the Red Hat High Availability Clustering (RH436) course, you will learn how to provide highly available network services to a mission-critical enterprise environment through the deployment and management of shared storage and server clusters. Created for senior Linux system administrators, this 4-day course strongly emphasizes lab-based activities.

You will set up a cluster of systems running the Pacemaker component of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux High-Availability Add-On, and deploy Linux-based services such as web servers and databases on that cluster. Cluster storage components from the Resilient Storage Add-On are also covered; installations and applications that require multiple cluster nodes can access the same storage simultaneously. This includes Logical Volume Manager (LVM) Shared Volume Groups, Red Hat Global File System 2 (GFS2), and Device-Mapper Multipath.

This course is based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.3.

RHLS Course Includes:

  • 365-Day RHLS Subscription - Full year of access starting from your purchase date. Official Red Hat Training Curriculum - Learn directly from Red Hat’s validated, up-to-date course materials.
  • Hands-On Labs (100 Hours per Course) - Build practical, real-world skills through extensive lab time.
  • One Certification Exam + Free Retake - Includes exam readiness resources to help you prepare with confidence.
  • One Virtual, Instructor-Led Class - Attend a live online class through the Red Hat portal (self-enrollment required using your RHID).

FAQs on Red Hat High Availability Clustering – Red Hat Learning Subscription Course (RH436LS)

Senior Linux system administrators responsible for implementing and managing high-availability clustering and fault-tolerant shared storage to ensure resilient production services.

Participants should have Red Hat Certified System Administrator (RHCSA, EX200) and Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE, EX294) certifications, along with the associated coursework.

You will learn to install and configure Pacemaker-based clusters, manage highly available services, troubleshoot cluster issues, configure iSCSI storage with multipathing, implement cluster-aware LVM, and set up GFS2 file systems.

Topics include cluster creation, node and quorum management, node isolation (fencing), resource configuration, troubleshooting, automation, two-node clusters, iSCSI storage access, resilient storage, cluster-aware LVM, GFS2 file systems, and eliminating single points of failure.

Yes, it covers practical configuration of iSCSI storage, multipathing, cluster-aware LVM, and GFS2 cluster file systems for shared storage environments.
