I had a discussion with Fabio, the upstream redhat-cluster-suite maintainer, and it seems that the stack corosync+openais+pacemaker is not feature equivalent with the current redhat-cluster-suite. Moreover redhat-cluster-suite is currently updated to use the new components but is not ready yet. It seems that the current redhat-cluster-suite is phased out and maintenance from upstream will stop which is not the best option for an LTS release. And the new cluster stack is being worked on but hasn't stabilized yet. So right now it seems we're stuck between two options. I wonder if demoting redhat-cluster-suite for lucid while keeping the new stack in universe would be the best option for the time frame that covers Lucid (LTS)? Once the new stack has stabilized (and redhat-cluster-suite has been updated to use the new components) we should reconsider promoting it to main. -- Mathias Gug Ubuntu Developer http://www.ubuntu.com -- ubuntu-server mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam
