Awesome, one of the things we recommend to pacemaker developers is to learn about our unit tests. Specifically, being able to run CTS in a virtualized environment with 3 or more nodes is a good exercise. I run CTS on KVM instances using libvirt. For fencing I use fence_virtd on the host machine and the fence_xvm agent within the guest vms. After you get fence_virtd running and accessible from the guests ('fence_xvm -o list' should list all the running guest vms when executed from a guest vm) you can use the steps I have outlined in the scenario file below to execute cts. https://github.com/davidvossel/phd/blob/master/scenarios/cts-virt.scenario CTS is not strictly required for all pacemaker development. Depending on how deep you want go it is very helpful at verifying invasive changes. -- Vossel > Thanks for your help. > Kind Regards, > Tasim > > _______________________________________________ > 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
