TL;DR version for this and the previous e-mail:
* Please help selecting resource and fence agents we should support *
1) By *support* I mean.. leave fully supported agents in [main], for 20.10, and
move the ones that shall get community support, or best effort support, into
[universe].
2) For 20.04: This will help to describe *fully supported* HA environments in
Ubuntu Server Guide.
----
Previous e-mail I sent the "resource-agents" package agents and their
description. Now I'm sending the "fence-agents" package agents and their
descriptions.
For those who don't play very much with High Availability:
- resource-agent: is the script in charge of starting/stopping/probing services
in a cluster environment.
- fence-agent: is the script in charge of isolating faulty nodes, helping the
cluster policy engine to take best action to restore remaining nodes/services.
