Thank you for this information
I have also the old book at home
"Clusterbau mit Linux-Ha Version 2"
and i'll hope it will work. I also have a good backup (veeam)
so  i can live with heartbeat cluster also
I will try this first and  i will go one try pacemaker in virtuell machines
that i  can see the point when i can start for production.

Hallo again Forum
It seems that  a failed the second time building a pacemaker cluster
first with opensuse 11. 2 onboard software
second with opensuse 11.2 with repository from clusterlab
It seems that it worked but i couldn't write the  resource pemanently
into the cib,
i posted it  to  this forum ....

So what i want is a pacemaker cluster with drbd to run openiscsitarget
as redundant storage for an esx server.
I work for an Austrian monestary Karmelitenkonvent (www.karmel.at)  and
i am a one man show for the whole Monestary in Austria.

I have to servers with netto 5 TB each ( one is 3ware raid with raid 5
(sohuld  be secondary) and one is 3ware raid with raid 50)
Each server has two two nics i used  it in my last try one with cross
over for drbd and the other for the normal connection.

So please tell me with which linux variant  i  have the best chance to
make this work as i want  and with which variant i can also get
a litttle help

Thank you in advance

Hi,

The problem is that no distribution has a good recent verion of pacemaker
included and you have to find out or to known which version of pacemaker really
works good for what distribution. But this can change daily.

I prefer Debian Lenny for the moment and use 1.0.6 of pacemaker form madkiss
repository. There is one bug in 1.0.6 you have to know about regarding the use
of the GUI. Otherwise it is quite usable for simple setups.

But I hope that Madkiss' repository will soon be updated to the latest version
1.0.8.

Also You have to know that a kernel update last Thursday broke Lennys DRBD
module if you installed 8.0.14 from the usual repositories. I hope they fix it
in the near future.

I had my problems with other distributions especially with opensuse 11.2. see
my bug reports / postings to this list.

The main developement if done also on Fedora, so this should also be a good
option.

You see: I have most experience in Debian. You have to find out yourself.

Start with SIMPLE resources, not with a DRBD/iSCSI-SAN setup.

Greetings,
