Greetings,

I'm a noob.  If this isn't the right place to ask this,
let me know.  I took "general configuration questions"
to include compiling.

OS = RHEL6 (I hope) x86_64

I downloaded:
Reusable-Cluster-Components-glue--glue-1.0.9.tar.bz2
Heartbeat-3-0-7e3a82377fa8.tar.bz2
ClusterLabs-resource-agents-v3.9.2-0-ge261943.tar.gz

Errr....  I just now noticed this.  Is there a Pacemaker source tarball
somewhere?  'Cause I guess I don't have it.


I wrote a book on using autotools and making RPMs.
Looks like the existing packages could use some work.
Heartbeat can't find the libltdl.tar file to install
a local version, but I have a feeling the packages
I have installed already should make that a moot point.


Back to my problem:

I compiled and installed
Reusable-Cluster-Components-glue--glue-1.0.9.tar.bz2

Then I pressed on to Heartbeat.  According to what I read
online that's the proper order.

1.  I have a libltdl.so.7 library but the configure script
claims it does not have lt_ldopen().  I decided to bluster
my way past that, in the hopes that the routine wouldn't
really be needed.

2.  But now it can't find ltdl.h, and I can't readily find a
way around that.  Ie, I can't find a RH package that
has that header file.  libtool and libtool-ltdl are both
installed.

[root@w1dns ~]# rpm -q -a | grep libtool
libtool-2.2.6-15.5.el6.x86_64
libtool-ltdl-2.2.6-15.5.el6.x86_64

Are there pre-built versions of these things somewhere?
I'm not anxious to re-invent the wheel.
Are there more parts to this than I have?

I think you might want to be sure you're using the right stack.

Trick is, there are two answers for this.

Under RHEL 6, the fully supported stack is corosync + cman + rgmanager. This has been Red Hat's stack since it got into the HA game, and will be supported until 2020 when RHEL 6 support ends.

The other answer is corosync + pacemaker (+cman). This support is nearly complete, but not totally complete. It got out of "Tech Preview" at the end of the 6.4 stream and is effectively fully supported on 6.5 an onward. Further, this will be the only supported stack on RHEL 7 and forward.

In either case, heartbeat is long deprecated (though still supported by Linbit, whom Red Hat has a support deal with). It has not been actively supported in years and there is no plan to restart development in the future. So please, do not use it.

If you're curious about the reasons for all this, I have an incomplete-but-still-hopefully-helpful history of HA coming together here:

So to best help you, can I ask what your near and long-term goals are? Once you've identified which stack is best for your use-case, we can better help you identify compilation issues (or if you need to be compiling anything at all).

Cheers
