I vote in favor of changing the names. Yes, it'll mess up crmsh, but at least for distributions it's just a simple search/replace patch to apply. I would also vote in favour of sticking to the 15 character limit, and to use "pcmk" as the prefix. That leaves 11 characters for the name, which should be enough for anyone ;) My votes: pacemakerd -> pcmk-launchd attrd -> pcmk-attrd cib -> pcmk-stated crmd -> pcmk-controld lrmd -> pcmk-resourced pengine -> pcmk-schedulerd stonithd -> pcmk-fenced pacemaker_remoted -> pcmk-remoted The one I'm the most divided about is cib. pcmk-cibd would also work. I would vote against PREFIX-configd as compared to other cluster software, I would expect that daemon name to refer to a more generic cluster configuration key/value store, and that is something that I have some hope of adding in the future ;) So I'd like to keep "config" or "database" for such a possible future component...
