All correct. If you want to try out what you'd be getting with HAE for SLES11, head over to http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/ha-clustering/SLE_11 It has the basic cluster pieces (ocfs2 and cLVM should be available there too in the coming days). Also visit http://clusterlabs.org/wiki/Documentation which includes information on what's changed since 2.1.4 (aka. Pacemaker 0.6) _______________________________________________ Linux-HA mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha See also: http://linux-ha.org/ReportingProblems
