More information

You can find a getting started guide, additional documentation and details about the Pacemaker project at http://www.clusterlabs.org

How to Use this Page

Simply browse for your distribution and install the repository file.
Once installed, you can decide which cluster stack to use at runtime simply by starting either 

service heartbeat start
or 
service corosync start
You can also choose not to install whichever stack you don't wish to use.

Installation - Fedora

Installation is as simple as: 

 wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/pacemaker.repo http://clusterlabs.org/rpm/fedora-11/clusterlabs.repo 
 yum install -y pacemaker corosync heartbeat

Installation - openSUSE

openSUSE uses zypper instead of yum, but the procedure is much the same: 

 zypper ar http://clusterlabs.org/rpm/opensuse-11.1/clusterlabs.repo
 zypper refresh
 zypper in pacemaker corosync heartbeat

Installation - EPEL

The Pacemaker packages in the EPEL directories build against some additional packages that don't exist on vanilla RHEL/CentOS installs. For more information on EPEL, see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/FAQ So before installing Pacemaker, you will first need to tell the machine how to find the EPEL packages Pacemaker depends on. To do this, download and install the EPEL package that matches your RHEL/CentOS version.

For example to install on RHEL5.3 for i386, you'd first add the EPEL repository: 

 su -c 'rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm'
And then add the Cluster Labs repository and install Pacemaker: 
 wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/pacemaker.repo http://clusterlabs.org/rpm/epel-5/clusterlabs.repo
 yum install -y pacemaker corosync heartbeat
