The clvm deamon currently depends on the RHCS infrastructure (cman, dlm).

In principal it's possible to make it work with other cluster software
but you'll need to add support for whatever locking and membership
mechanisms you're using.

See the code in daemons/clvmd/{clvmd-cman,clvmd-gulm,clvmd-openais}.c
that interfaces to the different versions of RHCS and the cluster_ops
struct in clvmd-comms.h to get some ideas.

Regards,
Bryn.
