You should really start with pacemaker Cluster from Scratch document which gives you basic overview of pacemaker architecture. Otherwise if your program already has initscript or systemd unit you can simply use them "as is" for quick integration. Or you can use "anything" resource agent that starts arbitrary program and monitors that process is still alive. _______________________________________________ Manage your subscription: https://lists.clusterlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/users ClusterLabs home: https://www.clusterlabs.org/
