Re: Howto Nova setup with HA?

 

FWIW, we're using DRBD + pacemaker in active/passive setups for both the MySQL and RabbitMQ setup in the trystack.org (the artist formerly known as FreeCloud) project, and it's working quite well and is pretty simple to set up. Nati Ueno could give some more details on the setup and the Chef cookbooks used...

Best,

    Major,

    The current set-up of HA in Openstack is borked in several ways.

    Ask Solem, cc'd, is going to write up a note helping people to do it
    properly.

    ClusterLabs has a pretty decent howto on their site:
