Hello, I tried to get the Heartbeat + Pacemaker working on my new test box which is running Fedora 14. It appears that there are some issues and http://old.nabble.com/Problem-with-Heartbeat-3.0-%2B-Pacemaker-1.1-ts30629395.html This Posting provides more information on the issue I encountered.
For now, I have written my little init script and added it as Resources Agent to R1 version in order to take care of the floating MAC address requirement. I am sure I will revisit the Heartbeat + Pacemaker CRM in near future as like to take some of the cool functionality it provides. Thank you for all your help and advice bcnx.
