Hey just wanted to give a quick status on this to any one intrested so far its going well there are a few gotchas I discovered like this little tidbit with PostgreSQL 9.1 https://www.redhat.com/archives/spacewalk-list/2012-February/msg00052.html but it seems to initially be working I still have to figure out how i want to handle this bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=836374 some people have worked around it with xinetd but I think an iptables DNAT rule would be more efficient but ill probably put both methods in the howto
For sharing the file systems I'm using Gluster. so far its worked so well its already spreading like wildfire in other projects I still have one last thing need to look into for postgresql and thats is if the " local spaceschema postgres ident " in the pg_hba.conf is needed after the initial install Ive been taking notes as I go and will probably write the wiki article in the next day or two.
