Pacemaker Remote

Scaling High Availablity Clusters

Abstract

This document exists as both a reference and deployment guide for the Pacemaker Remote service.

The example commands in this document will use:

  • AlmaLinux 9 as the host operating system

  • Pacemaker Remote to perform resource management within guest nodes and remote nodes

  • KVM for virtualization

  • libvirt to manage guest nodes

  • Corosync to provide messaging and membership services on cluster nodes

  • Pacemaker 2 to perform resource management on cluster nodes

  • pcs as the cluster configuration toolset

The concepts are the same for other distributions, virtualization platforms, toolsets, and messaging layers, and should be easily adaptable.
