[Spacewalk-list] HA Spacewalk

[travellig travellig]

I hope this helps answering your question.

Yes, the SW Server can be configured for either Active-Active or
Active-Passive High Availability configurations. Note that the Highly
Available mode refers only to the SP Application itself and not to the
Database (therefore, those wishing to run in High Availability mode
cannot use the Embedded Database model in SW)...

Here is the link the above comes from:

The installation guide for Satellite 5.1.1 explains this in more detail.
