Re: [Pacemaker] Split Site 2-way clusters

Hi all, I'm currently working out a similar concept as Miki. The only difference is that my cluster would NOT be in active/active. Here is a brief description of my scenario: 1. Three geographically distinct locations: A,B and X. There are no WAN connections. We have direct multiplexed fibr

Hi All, we are currently looking at nearly the same issue, in fact I just wanted to start a similarly titled thread when I stumbled over these messages… The setup we are evaluating is actually a 2*N-node-cluster, i.e. two slightly separated sites with N nodes each. The main difference to an N-nod
