[mdlug] Red Hat Summit Presentation on Virtualization and Clustering

[Wojtak, Greg]

That's some good stuff.  We've been using RHCL for quite a while for NFS
and Samba, and have recently started running MySQL and OpenLDAP on it as
well.  I was curious about doing a comparison of Xen vs. ESX.  I am more
familiar with ESX clusters.  Do you know of any good resources for
building Xen clusters and maybe a comparison of what the two products
can and can't do?

Hey All -

In the hope that it will be helpful, I've posted the presentation that
Lon Hohberger and I did at Summit.  In it we go over:

Setting up an iSCSI target (tech preview only in RHEL 5.2)
Setting up iSCSI initiators
Setting up a cluster of virtualization hosts (dom0 machines)
Setting up a cluster of virtual machines (domU machines)
Setting up Apache and a virtual ip address as a clustered service on the
domU machines

All of this is on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.2.

Take a peek at http://people.redhat.com/tcameron for the Summit 2008
presentation.

Sorry for the delay in posting to this list, I've been on the road
non-stop since Summit and I'm just now getting to some past due
housekeeping.

Note that I did the presentation on laptops with no fence device, so I
did not set up fencing for the laptops.  I did cover fencing the VMs,
though.

Hope this is helpful!
