6.2.3. Generate the Authkey

Generate the authkey used to secure connections between the host and the lxc guest pacemaker_remote instances. This is sort of a funny case because the lxc guests and the host will share the same key file in the /etc/pacemaker/ directory. If in a different deployment where the lxc guests do not share the host’s /etc/pacemaker directory, this key will have to be copied into each lxc guest.
# dd if=/dev/urandom of=/etc/pacemaker/authkey bs=4096 count=1
