To give you an idea. I defined the wollowing class:
class sws::services::cluster (
$control_clu_name = $sws::params::control_clu_name,
$control_clu_members = $sws::params::control_clu_members,
) inherits sws::params {
package { 'ccs' :
ensure => installed,
}
class {'pacemaker::corosync':
cluster_name => $control_clu_name,
cluster_members => $control_clu_members,
require => Package['ccs']
}
}
(There's a lot more in there, but I cut out the not so relevant bits...)
Currently this works, if I just declare the control_clu_name and
control_clu_members parameters in advance, and then add this class to the
nodes I listed in control_clu_members via Foreman.
Now when I add another node to the cluster I need to do two things: Add the
class to the node in Foreman, and add it's fqdn to the control_clu_members
parameter. I was just wondering if there was a way to do this last thing
automatically.
