Hello I'm really sorry to disturb you but I have some questions: I installed RedHat Clustering Suite and I have this configuration: /etc/sysconfig/ha/lvs.cf #Seccion General primary = XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX backup = 172.22.21.132 backup_active = 0 keepalive = 2 deadtime = 10 heartbeat_port = 1050 rsh_command = rsh network = nat nat_router = 172.22.21.254 eth1:0 # Per-virtual-server section virtual httpcluster { address = XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX eth3:0 active = 1 load_monitor = ruptime timeout = 10 reentry = 10 port = 80 send = "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n" scheduler = wlc pmask = 255.255.255.255 protocol = tcp # Per-real-server section #server rs1 { # address = 172.22.21.133 # active = 1 # weight = 2000 #} server rs2 { address = 172.22.21.21 active = 1 weight = 1000 } server rs3 { address = 172.22.21.130 active = 1 weight = 1000 } } virtual wildfirecluster { address = XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX eth3:0 active = 1 load_monitor = ruptime timeout = 10 reentry = 10 port = 5222 scheduler = wlc pmask = 255.255.255.255 protocol = tcp # Per-real-server section server jb1 { address = 172.22.21.22 active = 1 weight = 1000 } } #Generacion de roundrobin para postfix virtual postfixcluster { address = XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX eth3:0 active = 1 load_monitor = ruptime timeout = 10 reentry = 10 port = 25 scheduler = wlc pmask = 255.255.255.255 protocol = tcp send = "EHLO Cluster\r\n" # Per-real-server section server rs1 { address = 172.22.21.130 active = 1 weight = 1000 } server rs2 { address = 172.22.21.21 active = 1 weight = 1000 } } I start it by initializing service pulse. ------- My cluster.conf is very small and simple since this was a testing cluster.

Jul 19 21:51:23 pluto kernel: GFS: fsid=sapocluster:cluster_tmp.0: jid=4: Done And it mounts perfectly using mount -t gfs -oacl /dev/sdd1 /home (this is an iscsi partition that I made GFS) But apparently a consultant is telling me that this is not a cluster, and that a director is not installed and that this is not a cluster and I can see that even GFS telling me taht is joining a cluster so I'm really confused. Could you please tell me if this is a cluster? as far as I can tell I have a quorate and GFS mounts the stuff and clustat returns a cluster, please tell me if this is a cluster or not in your expert opinion. Thank you for your time. Enrique A.
