I don't think Florian or I implied that pacemaker is not suitable for enterprise use. I've recommended many people use it and I certainly would not have done that if I did not think it was ready. You know that RHEL is going to push over to pacemaker soon. It's fair for us who are going to move with it to want to be able to port our way of doing things when that happens. That is what this is about. It's not "wrong" to have just one fence method, but it is also not unreasonable to want two. All this is largely a question of "optimization" anyway, because pacemaker now does support this. So I think we're arguing over nothing too important. Sure, it will be nice if stonith someday handles dual-PDU fencing more cleanly, but it's also not a big deal to just use it the way it works now. So long as it is documented, the RHEL migrants will be fine. -- Digimer Papers and Projects: https://alteeve.ca/w/ What if the cure for cancer is trapped in the mind of a person without access to education? _______________________________________________ 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
