Well, I'm working on a similar setup:
3 node cluster with a couple of HP DL360's + a Sun Fire X4100 M2 + Sun
StorageTek 6140 + 2 Brocade switches.
All of the nodes run CentOS 5.2 + Xen 3.3.0 from Gitco repos.
Xen and the cluster are working fine, except for a couple of things:
- Windows VMs with GPLPV drivers don't migrate (live or otherwise)
- I'm using ILO / IPMI fencing, suboptimal at best
- For some reason, luci (running on a seperate machine) didn't detect my hosts
as xen enabled, so I had to hack luci
(luci is RedHat Cluster suite's web GUI for administering the cluster)
What is exactly your problem?
And feel free to contact me off-list if it's off-topic :)
