I was trying to frame your comment in the context of "2-node" vs. "3+ node" clusters. Unless I am misunderstanding, your comment is related to serviceability of clusters in general. I'm failing to link the contexts. Similarly, I'm not sure how this relates to "new" vs. "best"... maybe I need another coffee? -- Digimer Papers and Projects: https://alteeve.com/w/ "I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops." - Stephen Jay Gould _______________________________________________ Users mailing list: Users@clusterlabs.org http://lists.clusterlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/users Project Home: http://www.clusterlabs.org Getting started: http://www.clusterlabs.org/doc/Cluster_from_Scratch.pdf Bugs: http://bugs.clusterlabs.org
