Abstract
A clustered system has a subset of nodes coupled to a particular cluster resource. Nodes not coupled to the cluster resource may operate on a cluster resource through a node coupled to that resource. The nodes coupled to the resource form a group, the nodes in the group perform protocols to operate on the cluster resource, nodes not in the group do not participate in the protocols.
