I'm setting up a pair of frontend nodes with a drbd device. The drbd will have LVM on top and the LVs will be shared out to other systems (backends) via iSCSI. I'm very new to drbd, although I did play with it some years ago. In order to make a node the primary, it seems I need heartbeat (or something else) to manage it? Presumably I can also add the lvm commands somehwere.
The drbd website recommends pacemaker, which says it is built on corosync or heartbeat. My question is - this seems like quite a bit of work for just making sure one node is the primary, is there no simple approach?
I should add, the applications on the frontends have failover via round-robin DNS, so no action needed there. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (4.6°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - dedicated server rental in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-ha+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-ha+owner@opensuse.org
