Thanks again, and to others with the helpful replies. Turns out we already had a subscription for the HAE from having SLES 10 subscriptions.

It seems that all HA has been removed from SLES 11 and put into the SLES 11 High Availability Extension, and there is no way to get hold of that extension without paying $699 for it. As I'm currently looking at SLES 11 against RHEL 5.3 for clustering/HA I don't want to have to pay for something I may not use. > > Can anyone confirm any of this or shed any light? All correct. If you want to try out what you'd be getting with HAE for SLES11, head over to http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/ha-clustering/SLE_11 It has the basic cluster pieces (ocfs2 and cLVM should be available there too in the coming days). Also visit http://clusterlabs.org/wiki/Documentation which includes information on what's changed since 2.1.4 (aka. Pacemaker 0.6) _______________________________________________ Linux-HA mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha See also: http://linux-ha.org/ReportingProblems _______________________________________________ Linux-HA mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha See also: http://linux-ha.org/ReportingProblems
