I think that if you're starting from new DBs implementing the mysql cluster is probably easier.. for me DRBD's strength is in replicating things which don't already have builtin solutions (postfix's mail spool for example)..

The Apache OCF is absolutely useless in CentOS, fails ocf_test every time..

However if you grab this version:

http://hg.linux-ha.org/dev/file/aaba921b100c/resources/OCF/apache

it works great...

Additionally, I'd love to hear people's opinions on mysql + drbd vs mysql 
replication in regards to a HA setup...
It seems to me that drbd replication would be easier to implement than a mysql 
master/slave solution...

I'm interested in hearing others' opinions though.

2 nodes will be running mysql, with a vip on the active node.
2 nodes will be running drbd, a vip, and an apache instance.

this is on centos 5.2 in testing, will be on RHEL in prod.

I'm having troubles getting the apache ocf RA to work, and from what I've read, 
many other people have as well, but I've not read a workable solution, so I've 
defaulted to just using the linux init script as a resource.

if anyone would mind pointing me to a setup of the vmware stonith device, I'd 
really appreciate it... I'm having troubles making heads or tails of it.

also if anyone has a pointer on the apache RA, I'd love to hear about it...

Thanks so much guys.
