thanks folks.. Ive got GFS 6.1 and friends installed and loaded.. What are my options at this point? I ran the system-config-cluster utility and it brings me up a nice gui to start creating the cluster.. I was planning on using linux-ha as the actuall active-passive failover for the cluster. Would it be better for me to stick with the RedHatClusterSuite utils? just curious what do you think? regards, Jason -- Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
