I spent quite a bit of time familiarizing myself with heartbeat 2.1.3, ip address takeover, and drbd using 2 Ubuntu VMs. I was encouraged enough by what I saw to move further into the solution space.
My ultimate target is a SuSE 10.1 production box with a twin in the cluster. It seemed wise to me to base the ultimate solution on a 2.99 and Pacemaker base because that's mainly where the project's focus will be in the near future (correct?) I expected if I based on 2.1.3, I'd end up with a migration project later that I would like to avoid if possible.
That said, it's a bit baffling to get the 2.99 and pacemaker configuration installed on SuSE. Are there any tutorials that can guide that process? Basic questions are:
what's the easiest way to install it? Yast2 with RPMs? If so, which RPMs? Has someone compiled a list of dependencies to install first?
I tried installing the 2.99 RPMs and Pacemaker but end up with uninstallable dependencies on things like IPMI and OpenAIS libraries. I'm sure I don't understand all the common code and dependencies between heartbeat and openais, ipmi libraries, etc. So, I never know if I'm "over-installing". I would like to know just what I need to get the 2.99 and pacemaker equivalent to the 2.1.3 and crm setup.
Any pointers to exact package lists, package install order, dependencies, or other hints for getting this installed on SuSE would be appreciated.
I have DRBD 8.2.6 built and installed on the SuSE box, so mainly, I need some guidance on the heartbeat and pacemaker installs under SuSE.
Thanks for any help, Landon _______________________________________________ Linux-HA mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha See also: http://linux-ha.org/ReportingProblems
