base/frameworks/cluster/__load__.zeek
base/frameworks/cluster/main.zeek
A framework for establishing and controlling a cluster of Zeek instances. In order to use the cluster framework, a script named
cluster-layout.zeek
must exist somewhere in Zeek’s script search path which has a cluster definition of theCluster::nodes
variable. TheCLUSTER_NODE
environment variable orCluster::node
must also be sent and the cluster framework loaded as a package like@load base/frameworks/cluster
.Warning
The file
cluster-layout.zeek
should only contain the definition ofCluster::nodes
. Specifically, avoid loading other Zeek scripts or usingredef
for anything butCluster::nodes
.Due to
cluster-layout.zeek
being loaded very early, it is easy to introduce circular loading issues.
base/frameworks/cluster/pools.zeek
Defines an interface for managing pools of cluster nodes. Pools are a useful way to distribute work or data among nodes within a cluster.
