Hello Everyone, So after a little trial and error, I managed to install pacemaker to my rsyslog servers. I am obviously not familiar with it, but I have been doing some research into configuring it. I am not sure this is the forum where I need to post this question and if its not I apologize, but I was curious if there was a resource for rsyslog to be managed through pacemaker, and also David I think you suggested pacemaker and clusterip to manage the vip on these servers, could you possibly elaborate on your suggestion if you don't mind?
