Is there some documentation available for openais? I can't even find a
good description of what it does or why you would use it. Also, will
this help with my 2nd question: having a few spares for a large number
of servers? While my objective with the squid cache is to proxy
everything through one server to maximize the cache hits, I may switch
to memcached on a group of machines and would like to have a standby or
2 that could take over for any failing machine.
Well, there are man-pages and the mailing list. The install page even
has a configuration example. And I have found this thread to be
especially helpful:

Yes, but I want to know why I should use it before dealing with how to
install and configure. Is there a feature list, FAQ, or comparison to
other mechanisms?
openais will be the future platform for pacemaker clusters providing the
communication infrastructure and node failure detection.
Heartbeat will for example no longer be part of the next suse enterprise
linux (sles11) ha solution. It will be based on openais. So for new
setups, this should be the way to go - at least imho.
The code may be great, but it really needs a little public relations
effort unless I'm missing something. Is there any way to find the
answer to my question above (many active hosts per spare)?
