1. A method comprising:
- provisioning two or more servers, each of the servers including a first network interface;
enabling a second network interface in each of the provisioned servers;
creating a shared volume;
assigning the shared volume to each of the provisioned servers; and
enabling a clustering application on each of the provisioned servers to form a cluster comprising the provisioned servers, the cluster having a heartbeat via the second network interfaces.

Abstract
A device may provision two or more servers, each of the servers including a first network interface. In addition, the device may enable a second network interface in each of the provisioned servers, create a shared volume, assign the shared volume to each of the provisioned servers, and enable a clustering application on each of the provisioned servers to form a cluster comprising the provisioned servers, the cluster having a heartbeat via the second network interfaces.

14. A system comprising:
-
first logic to; generate a job for provisioning a cluster; and place the job in a database; and second logic to drive an execution of the job in the database, the job comprising instructions for one or more of devices in the system to; provision two servers, each of the two servers including a first network interface; enable a second network interface in each of the provisioned servers; create a shared volume; assign the shared volume to each of the provisioned servers; and create a cluster from the provisioned servers, the cluster having a heartbeat over the second network interfaces. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. Computer-readable media comprising computer executable instructions for causing one or more processors to:
-
provision two or more devices, each of the devices including a first network interface; enable a second network interface in each of the provisioned devices; create a quorum disk; assign a logical volume associated with the quorum disk to each of the provisioned devices, install a clustering application on each of the provisioned devices, and enable the clustering application and a heartbeat between the provisioned devices via the second network interfaces in the provisioned devices.
