Hi all, after a long time I'm back in charge of a cluster. So, as always, I looked at the well known resources to see what happend after the last time: And, it is much.
Please correct me if you see that my assumptions are bad. As far as I can see it is adviced to use cman + corosync 1 + pacemaker on RHEL clones like Scientific Linux is. It seems that there are packackes of packemaker 1.1.8 that should fit in a regular RHEL distribution. SL6.3 has pacemaker 1.1.7 in its repositories. (Is it worth to have 1.1.8?) My question: If I'm not interested in GFS, OCFS, DLM and therefore not in the "distribution's specialaties" is it feasible/useful to use corosync 2 + pacemaker together (manually compiled) to get a "state-of-the-art" cluster up? I came across this at http://theclusterguy.clusterlabs.org/post/34604901720/pacemaker-and-cluster- filesystems Or would you recommend staying with the distribution's layout? This would have the benefit of precompiled packages, howtos are available, etc. Comments and hints welcome. Best regards Andreas Mock P.S.: Nice to see that some people seem to be constants in the HA and pacemaker universe. ;-) _______________________________________________ Pacemaker mailing list: Pacemaker@oss.clusterlabs.org http://oss.clusterlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/pacemaker Project Home: http://www.clusterlabs.org Getting started: http://www.clusterlabs.org/doc/Cluster_from_Scratch.pdf Bugs: http://bugs.clusterlabs.org
