After much careful consideration, it is increasingly clear to some of
us that the CRM needs to be a separate project rather than being
bundled with Heartbeat.
As such, it has been decided that 2.1.3 will be the last release of a
combined Heartbeat + CRM.
After this point, I will extract (only) the CRM code (of which I am
the author) and maintain it as a new project that will eventually
support both the Heartbeat and OpenAIS communications layers.
Except for the project's additional package that will need to be
installed, users continuing to use Heartbeat messaging shouldn't
notice any difference at all. The new project will be fully
compatible with existing clusters and will continue to rely on
Heartbeat for things like RAs, the LRM and support libraries like
clplumbing.
As more details of the project are decided upon we will make them
available at the CRM's new home:
http://www.clusterlabs.org
I will remain on these lists to answer questions, however all CRM
development (including bug fixes) will occur as part of the new project.
In closing, I'd like to thank all our users and testers over the last
4 years. We hope for your continued support as we work to provide the
best cluster resource manager available.
Regards,
Andrew
