Here's my latest thoughts on how to do this: With 2 nodes, and using the Red Hat Cluster suite to fence the two hosts, and all vm disk images stored on shared storage (for example, an iSCSI LUN) that both hosts will have access to, and using a GFS2 formatted partition on each node. Also, using Bind Mounts to mount /etc/libvirt/qemu onto the GFS2 partition so that the vm xml files will be sync'ed up between both hosts. Does that make sense? Or would their be something simpler to try? -Kenny On Wed, Feb 9, 2011 at 1:46 PM, Kenneth Armstrong <digimars@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Cool, thanks for the link. > > - Kenny > > On Wed, Feb 9, 2011 at 12:26 PM, Cole Robinson <crobinso@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> On 02/08/2011 03:05 PM, Kenneth Armstrong wrote: >>> I know that by default, vm xml files are in >>> /etc/libvirt/qemu/vm-name.xml, but is there a configuration somewhere >>> that I could point to another directory?
