Other way around, Pacemaker 1.1.x supports cman which means it can use the standard dlm_controld. > > Now, for packagers on distros that don't ship cman, is it a viable > option to just package dlm_controld from > git://git.fedorahosted.org/dlm.git, and ship that to support > Pacemaker-managed OCFS2? Yes. This is what SLES does and will presumably continue to do. Err, assuming the patches are still in there. There is no intention from my side to prevent the .pcmk variants from working in the future. The only other thing to note is that eventually everything (pacemaker, *FS, dlm_controld) will hook into the corosync quorum plugin instead of cman or the pacemaker plugin. Timeline for that should be in the next year or so (after much additional testing) IIUC. > > Cheers, > Florian > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Pacemaker mailing list: Pacemaker@oss.clusterlabs.org > http://oss.clusterlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/pacemaker > > Project Home: http://www.clusterlabs.org > Getting started: http://www.clusterlabs.org/doc/Cluster_from_Scratch.pdf > Bugs: > http://developerbugs.linux-foundation.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Pacemaker > > _______________________________________________ Pacemaker mailing list: Pacemaker@oss.clusterlabs.org http://oss.clusterlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/pacemaker Project Home: http://www.clusterlabs.org Getting started: http://www.clusterlabs.org/doc/Cluster_from_Scratch.pdf Bugs: http://developerbugs.linux-foundation.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Pacemaker
