I think you may have missed a key piece - Sets. Requires more than 2 and assumes at least one will be sequential. Here might explain better - have a look at the "Unversioned Docs" at 'General Concepts' - ordering explained and colocation explained. Well into each of the documents they talk about sequential/non-sequential: http://clusterlabs.org/doc/ > > colocation myset inf: app1 app2 > colocation myset inf: ( app1 app2 ) Basics are something like this: colocation myset inf: ( app1 app2 ) app3 app1 and app2 don't care about each other but they both must colocate with app3. App2's locale/status doesn't effect app1 but app3 effects both whereas colocation myset inf: app1 app2 app3 app2 can only run once app3 is placed and app1 can only run once app3 and app2 are placed. > > The first seems to say that app1 is dependent on app2 being able to > run somewhere. > > Does the second one simply say that they must not be split up, but if > only one can run, that's fine? > > -Don > > _______________________________________________ > 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://bugs.clusterlabs.org > > _______________________________________________ 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://bugs.clusterlabs.org
