Agreed - it's my understanding as well. DLM and GFS2 will be part of the new cluster stack and thus be maintained. While cman and rgmanager should be replaced with pacemaker and some other daemons. If I understand correctly it's currently impossible to upgrade automatically from cman/rgmanager to the new stack. Fabio told me that there were plans to add support for the existing cman/rgman configuration syntax to the new components (pacemaker) but that feature was not ready yet. So how would one upgrade from Hardy rhcs to the new cluster stack in Lucid? > I would really like to see new stack in main.

I understand your point of view and appreciate the effort you've put into testing the new stack - which is already in universe IIUC. I'm trying to figure out what we'd loose with the new cluster stack and how upgrades from Hardy rhcs should be handled. I hope that through out the discussion we'll be able to reach a consensus on which cluster stack options makes the most sense for the next LTS release. -- 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
