I have a fairly simple 2 node cluster running drbd, drbdlinks and heartbeat. It runs the services httpd, mysql and smb. The drbd disk is on a separate disk than the OS.
The cluster's OS is fedora Core 8 and runs heartbeat-2.1.2-2.fc8 and uses R1-style configuration. Since Fedora 8 is end of life, I need to rebuild and install a new OS which will be RHEL5. My plan is to stop heartbeat and drbd on the backup node. Install the new OS. Install the heartbeat packages, drbd and copy back the heartbeat configs (ha.cf etc). Since the drbd disk will not be touched during the install, my hope is that the disk will sync up fine. I have the heartbeat rpms for RH5 which were downloaded from the recommended site on linux-ha.org. They are heartbeat-2.1.4-2.1.i386.rpm. Can I run heartbeat-2.1.4-2.1 on the newly installed system while heartbeat-2.1.2-2 is running on the old system until I can get the other system upgraded to the new os? Seems like it would be fine, but wanted to double check. _______________________________________________ Linux-HA mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha See also: http://linux-ha.org/ReportingProblems
