GargoyleWondering if anyone can help me out with some terminology as I am not sure I am getting the right search results. Assume we are running in a load-balanced setup of 3 servers and on each one is a little daemon process that is going to periodically wake up and do something.11:05
GargoyleBut I only want ONE of them to perform the action each time, not all three.11:05
GargoyleIf this was a single multi-threaded process, it would just be a case of locking. Is there a fancy name for it when done across multiple programs (and multiple machines).11:06
Gargoylenm. Got myself on the right track now. Sometimes just asking the question is enough to reset your thinking! :D12:30

zmoylan-pii thought the general rule of linux swap fules was to let linux handle it for 99% of occasions?21:16
