What is rgmanager?

The rgmanager program manages cluster resources defined by the user. It allows you to define services for high-availability on your cluster. Basically, you can define cluster services, for example an NFS server, that is available to computers on the network (in or out of the cluster). Rgmanager monitors the services, and if a node fails, it will relocate the service to another node in the cluster. So if your NFS server fails, the service can be automatically moved to another node in the cluster and the NFS clients on the network probably won’t even know it failed. They should continue running seamlessly without knowing or caring about the failure.
