Please explain.
I think the OP means that there won't be any service using shared storage (ie: service runs on node1 and node2 simultaneously sharing one database on disk). The SAN, of course, provides shared storage to the nodes. At least that's how I read it. >> I wanted to know if it is good practice (or common enough) to build a >> filesystem containing configuration data for the clustered services. > > That's entirely possible, and people typically use NFS mounts for that > purpose. ocf:Filesystem resources mount and unmount SAN based file systems nicely. Works for iSCSI too. I haven't used NFS, so far, though I don't see how it would be any different, really, since it's just mount / umount. _______________________________________________ Linux-HA mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha See also: http://linux-ha.org/ReportingProblems
