[Lustre-discuss] failover software - heartbeat

[Lundgren, Andrew]

It is very difficult to find relevant documentation for heartbeat 1/2. I just finished configuring a heartbeat system and would not recommend it because of the documentation.  (They seem to have removed portions the heartbeat documentation from the site.)  

Pacemaker is not a simple solution to configure either. I played briefly with the RH clustering software.  It does not directly support any FS type other than the basic ext2/ext3, and wasn't happy with a lustre type.
