I will show you in this tutorial how to install your first cluster Corosync and the Linux Cluster Manager Pacemaker.
Let me give small definitions about Corosync and Pacemaker.
The Corosync Cluster Engine is an open source project licensed under the new BSD License derived from the OpenAIS project. The mission of the Corosync effort is to develop, release, and support a community-defined, open source cluster executive for use by multiple open source and commercial cluster projects or products.
Pacemaker is open source high availability resource manager software used on computer clusters since 2004. Until about 2007, it was part of the Linux-HA project, then was split out to be its own project.
CRM Shell is a software to manage pacemaker resources.
Server:
node1: Centos 6.5 IP= 192.168.1.110 node2: Centos 6.5 IP=192.168.1.111 Selinux=PermissiveIptables add ports: (5404-5405)
add node1 and node2 to your /etc/hosts file.
Add the HA Clustering Repo to your Linux Centos nodes
vi /etc/yum.repos.d/ha-clustering.repo
add
[haclustering] name=HA Clustering baseurl=http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/ha-clustering:/Stable/CentOS_CentOS-6/ enabled=1 gpgcheck=0
Install the package on both nodes (node1 and node2):
yum install pacemaker corosync crmsh
If you have any dependencies issues about /sbin/xfs . please install it from here:
rpm -ivh http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/centosplus/i386/RPMS/xfsprogs-2.9.4-1.el5.centos.i386.rpm
Use this Configuration and edit your IP adresses:
/etc/corosync/corosync.conf

Generate corosync Authentication key with :
The key will be generated to /etc/corosync/
[root@node1 ~]# corosync-keygen Corosync Cluster Engine Authentication key generator. Gathering 1024 bits for key from /dev/random. Press keys on your keyboard to generate entropy. Press keys on your keyboard to generate entropy (bits = 64). Press keys on your keyboard to generate entropy (bits = 128). Press keys on your keyboard to generate entropy (bits = 192).

Writing corosync key to /etc/corosync/authkey. [root@node1 ~]#
scp /etc/corosync/* root@node2:/etc/corosync/
Edit on node2 /etc/corosync/corosync.conf with the node2 IP address
