Hi, We were actually evaluating Pacemaker based hosted engine and talking to Pacemaker developers, but we hit couple of show stoppers:
- Pacemaker supports limited set of nodes in the default setup (16 iirc, extensible using some kind of relays) - It uses network based synchronization and requires very low latency network (we can't guarantee that when migrations are in progress for example) - the rest of oVirt currently uses storage based synchronization, so we are in a different world here - We would basically have to rewrite / duplicate most of the hosted engine code we already have to get the same scheduling logic (load penalization, gateway checks, ...) We decided that rewriting code for no clear benefit was not productive and stayed with the current hosted engine instead.
