In that case, I really think it will be easier to set up DRBD. That way you can automatically replicate anything: web content, apache config files, databases, etc. by just creating the appropriate symlinks into the shared partition. Just be certain you never put anything in the shared partition that is needed at boot time or when the machine is not in primary mode (an obvious and particularly stupid example of this would be /etc/passwd). > Controlling the order so IPAddr2 fires and finishes synchronously > before starting apache or postgres, for example, is feasible, > correct? Yes. I personally have never used the xml-style configuration or the hb_gui, so I can't tell you exactly how you would do this. But in a v1-style haresources file, you specify the order in which resources are started, and you always have the IPaddr2 resources first, followed by drbddisk and Filesystem, and finally your service daemons last. --Greg _______________________________________________ Linux-HA mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha See also: http://linux-ha.org/ReportingProblems
