Hello ! I have maybe a bit of a strange question, but i dont have a good idea of how to solve it. I´ve a decent setup with heartbeat, 3 servers, 1 with ilo interface, stonith is working as expected.
My problem isn´t really that part, it´s more how to intergrate the setup with our "management"-system at my workplace. We have a "main-central-server" wich handles all configuration files for our servers, so all files are stored there, and lets say i make a change on a server in a config file, this file will be replaced by the version that is on the "main-central-server", this check is done once per hour. So far so good, no problem yet. The problem is for me/or maybe im mistaken here and there is no problem at all, but anyway, this is what i want oppinions/suggestions on how to solve. Let´s say i want to change my configration on my ha-cluster server, normally i would change the config file (in this case then cib.xml) on the "main-central-server", and then let my "management"-system take care of it, wich i could do here also, in wich case the scenario would be something like this, 1. make change in cib.xml on "main-central-server". 2. "management"-system notice the diff between cib.xml on my servers and the cib.xml "main-central-server" and therefore "sends" out the new cib.xml to my servers. 3. then i invoke the new cib.xml on my servers with something similar to, ' cibadmin -R -x /var/lib/heartbeat/crm/cib.xml ' 4. everything is finished, ha-cluster has now my new cib.xml and also running thereafter. BUT, somewhere i thought a read that manually changing/replacing the cib.xml while ha is running is a very very very bad idea, but ive tried this theory and it seems to work as expected..... So basicly after this long mail im wondering, is there any danger for me to replace the cib.xml while ha cluster is running ? ?
