Abstract

Provided are a virtualization based high availability cluster system and a method for managing failures in a virtualization based high availability cluster system. The high availability cluster system includes a plurality of virtual nodes, and a plurality of physical nodes each including a message generator for generating a message denoting that the virtual nodes are in a normal state and transmitting the generated message to virtual nodes in a same physical node. One of the virtual nodes not included in a first physical node among the plurality of the physical nodes takes over resources related to a service if a failure is generated in one of virtual nodes included in the first physical node.
