Software: Ubuntu 7.10 Gusty Gibbon (virtual), Heartbeat 2.1.2 (using CRM), DRBD 8.03 (all are versions that come with Ubuntu 7.10), and VMWare 1.0.3 hosting the virtual servers.
What I have working so far: 1. DRBD is compiled in and configured. Can use either manual control or the CRM to control it. 2. Virtual IP (on eth0:1) and a web server in a group that seem to follow each other from one node to the next successfully under CRM control. What doesn't seem to work: Mounting of file-systems with CRM. Every method I have tried to add it to the cib.xml file has lead to a resource with an exclamation mark and a status of unmanaged resource in haclient.py. Even following the examples on the Linux-HA.org site exactly fails. (I also noticed that options on the website don't even come close to matching up with what haclient.py offers and even seemingly basic operations seemed to get fudged beyond usability with this interface with seemingly no recourse but to manually edit the files while heartbeat is offline and delete *.sig before starting back up, which is rather vexing if you forget a step and then all of your changes are gone when you restart heartbeat, unless of course I am doing something terribly wrong in my methods.) What I am ultimately after is the ability to have an active/active 64-bit dual server configuration (with each server running different services [not clustered services]) that supports monitoring and recovery of local services and automatic failover for high avalability. The only part I have left in this scheme to make work is the actual resource manager and at that it seems getting it to mount a file system and manage it properly is where I am falling short on this scheme. Also I need to do more thorough testing once I have it all setup to make sure it really does what it is supposed to. _______________________________________________ Linux-HA mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha See also: http://linux-ha.org/ReportingProblems
