Apparatus, system, and methods for a high availability computer system
architecture using high-speed pipes are provided. An active computer
system and a standby computer system are connected using a physical pipe
for transferring data between the active computer system and the standby
computer system. A first logical pipe is used for transferring data over
the physical pipe, and a second logical pipe is used for transferring
high-availability data over the physical pipe. Network-interface cards may
be used to implement the high-speed pipes.
