The invention relates to a method for operating a distributed computer system (SYS) with network nodes (NKN, NK1-NK6), each of which having at least one node control (STR, ST1-ST6) and one communications controller (KK1-KK6), whereby the communications controllers (KKK, KK1-KK6) are connected to one another via at least one communications channel (BUS), and a fault tolerance layer (FTS, FT1-FT6) is provided between the communications controller (KK1-KK6) and the node control (STR, ST1-ST6) of a network node (NKN, NK1-NK6). Said fault tolerance layer is disposed for receiving messages exchanged between the network nodes (NKN, NK1-NK6), whereby, in a matching method, the fault tolerance layer (FTS, FT1-FT6) decides the functioning of the at least one network node (NK1-NK6) by using received information about the state of at least one network node (NKN, NK1-NK6). The matching result is provided in the form of an output signal (ASS, AS1-AS6), whereby the at least one network node (NKN, NK1-NK6) is controlled according to the output signal (ASS, AS1-AS6). |
