Hi Lars,

running a two node Active/Passive-Cluster. As we don't have a STONITH-Device we 
decided to add a third node as quorum node into the setup and stop all services 
if we ever loose quorum.

Unfortunately the third node has to run an MySQL-Slave which should never 
become active, but pacemaker of course has to manage MySQL on the two other 
nodes.

It might not be the perfect Cluster setup you will find in any books but I can 
see nothing what's really wrong with it.

I could think of a setup were MySQL will run with one master and two slaves and 
forbid the migration/promotion to the third node but I would like to share the 
Database-Files between the active and the passive node via DRBD as I expect it 
to be more reliable. The downside is that you has to wait until the 
MySQL-Server on the (no longer) passive node has been started in case of 
failover, but I can live with that.

Of course, I'm very open to any comments or recommendations you might have.

Best regards
Denis Witt
