Then, I want to configure cman + corosync + pacemaker (as described at
1). With this in mind which fence mechanism should I use? fence_scsi (my
shared storage is in fibre channel scsi san)? Or the pcmk fence is
enough? Where can I found documentation for fence mechanisms?
In other configuration scenarios (2) using clvm, a dlm and sfex (3)
resource is also created. Should I configure it too?
Thanks for your help.
