[Linux-cluster] Fedora 13 Clustering

[Virginian]

Hi Gordon,

It looks to me like things have changed quite a bit in F13 compared to RHEL 
/ Centos 5. I agree, cluster.conf  looks the same but there is a new 
component called Corosync and ccs seems to have gone.

Traditionally I have used Conga to configure the Cluster (although not 
without problems at times it has to be said). However, in F13 there is no 
"luci_admin" utility to set the password and Luci isn't accessible from a 
web browser. I don't mind configuring things by hand if that's the only way 
to do it, I was just looking to be pointed in the right direction really. I 
have received some help offline from a member of this list which has proved 
invaluable. I have now managed to get a basic cluster up and running on F13. 
Our fellow list member is working on a document which I think will be of 
enormous help to others when completed (in fact it is already a useful doc).

The old docs specified which ports / protocols needed to be opened up in 
iptables but as I haven't sussed out what's needed under F13 I am running 
with iptables stopped for now. If anybody has this information I would be 
very grateful to receive it.

Thanks & regards

John
