Using Xming & Putty can connect to remote Linux X-server from windows desktop. By this way you will be able to view remote server GUI from windows desktop. This avoids need of physical console access to server.
Because granting server console access to application or normal user is a bad idea. One of my user pressed Ctr+Alt+Del while working on VMware virtual machine console. Which made system to reboot.

What is lib files in Linux?
A library(lib) is a file containing compiled code from various object files stuffed into a single file. It may contain a group of functions that are used in a particular context. For example, the ‘pthread’ library is used when thread related functions are to be used in the program.
Broadly, a library (or Program Library) can be of two types :
DNS stands for either Domain Name System or Domain Name Server. DNS used for name resolution between server hostname and IP Address. Many times there will be a change in system hostname or IP for some reason. During this time all DNS zone entries must be updated manually. Also accuracy of changes implemented to be considered. Think what happens if you have 500+ machines. Keeping them up-to-date by tracking manually is hectic.
SUSE cluster log is a single file where you found messages of cluster engine and all of it components. For each and every operation in cluster plenty of info will be logged into log file. While cluster is in smooth operation no one care about it. What if you run into some issue? Linux OS cluster do execute number of process in a second. With simple resource monitoring command we cannot trace out the whole operation history.
Having known about various parts of messages being written in SUSE cluster log file will help much during troubleshooting. The message to be written in logs with error code is predefined already. You may also see output of

Many of us will get confused with Corosync and Heartbeat. Have described about both corosync & heartbeat functionality.
This help you to have comparison of corosync vs heartbeat.
To get idea about where to use corosync and heartbeat?
What cluster engine been supported by corosync and heartbeat?
The Corosync Cluster Engine is a Group Communication System with additional features for implementing high availability within applications. The project provides four C Application Programming Interface features:
• A closed process group communication model with virtual synchrony guarantees for creating replicated state machines.
• A simple availability manager that restarts the application process when it has failed.
• A configuration and statistics in-memory database that provide the ability to set, retrieve, and receive change notifications of information.
• A quorum system that notifies applications when quorum is achieved or lost.
Corosync is used as a High Availability framework by projects such as Apache Qpid and Pacemaker.
Heartbeat
Heartbeat is a daemon that provides cluster infrastructure (communication and membership) services to its clients. This allows clients to know about the presence (or disappearance!) of peer processes on other machines and to easily exchange messages with them.
In order to be useful to users, the Heartbeat daemon needs to be combined with a cluster resource manager (CRM) which has the task of starting and stopping the services (IP addresses, web servers, etc.) that cluster will make highly available. Pacemaker is the preferred cluster resource manager for clusters based on Heartbeat.
