Hi Niels, I believe that you can do it even without downtime but it will be hard to do it. Most probably something like this can work, but I have never done it: 1. Setup and install the cluster without the resources 2. Set the cluster in maintenance 3. Either use the shadow cib or pcs counterpart command to define the whole cluster 4. Load the shadow cib from the file 5. Run a crm_simulate to verify the cluster's actions 6. Remove the maintenance A more safer approach is to create the cluster with the replication in advance and then either use replication to transfer the data or use an export/import for that purpose. If you have a spare pair of systems , you can try the first approach (building a fresh cluster and configure it while the DB is running).
