I was now reading the great links Michael gave me and I learned a lot.
But I am still a little confused about openAIS / Heartbeat / Pacemaker.

I understood (if I am right) that pacemaker is a part (big) of heartbeat
2. So if you want to use heartbeat 3 you have to use pacemaker.
Pacemaker is also compatible to openAIS. So you can use also pacemaker
and openAIS. But openAIS seems to lack a lrmd so is it possible to use
openAIS without heartbeat? Just pacemaker and openAIS?

What is the prefered setup and what will be the future?

A little confusing right now...
