As part of my attempt to develop an HA application, I was looking for a way to ease the development of HA, and I found corosync, which supports 4 C APIs.
Then, I found out corosync is not just an API, but rather an entire HA system, which I can configure to make my application HA (right?).
However when I attempted to use corosync, I encountered problems:
1. I couldn't find any forum/IRC channel where I can get support. This mailing list doesn't seem like the best place for this type of question, I just couldn't find any other place.
2. There was no documentation/example/ on how to use corosync with an application. Rather, there were _many_ tutorials, each one with different ways/commands and even different executables, on how to set up corosync with pacemaker(or heartbeat).
And even though there were many tutorials, they all seemed to show how to set up an HA nodes; That is, settings up a shared ip address and shared data. However none showed how to create an HA application.
3. Even after looking, installing, downloading, for over 3 days, I can't seem to find any documentation on how to use the corosync APIs. Wikipedia mentioned they exists, and I remember some pdf even showing sample code on how to use it. But no place showing on how to link against it, how to install, where is the dll(or should I static link against the code), and if so, what are the commands syntax/structs. A lot of missing information which can't simply be guessed.
Any help / redirection to another support channel would be great!
