The crm shell (and everything else to do with the CIB) is included with
Pacemaker, which is a cluster resource manager that uses heartbeat
or corosync/openais for messaging.  See:

  http://linux-ha.org/wiki/Heartbeat

  http://www.clusterlabs.org/wiki/FAQ

For some basic configuration information see:

  http://www.clusterlabs.org/wiki/Initial_Configuration

Once the cluster nodes are talking to each other, you can use the crm shell
(just run "crm") to configure the cluster.

I would strongly encourage you to read Clusters from Scratch, see:

  http://www.clusterlabs.org/wiki/Documentation

If you're using Heartbeat, the corosync/openais references won't help, but
all the Pacemaker information is equally relevant regardless of which
messaging layer you use.

I'm not sure if there's a similar guide around which talks about using
Pacemaker with Heartbeat in this detail, but you should probably also
look at:

The CIB lives in /var/lib/heartbeat/crm/cib.xml.  You do not ever edit
this file directly, and usually don't need to look at it in its raw
XML form, thanks to the existence of the crm shell.  You might be
interested in reading:
