[Bug 1205107] Re: [remove] redhat-cluster

[Andres Rodriguez]

Hi All,

Thank  you for your comments. A few remarks

@Adam, there is a migration plan that will involve a manual migration
plan. We don't really expect people to be using cman+rgmanager in
precise because it had been deprecated by upstream a very long time ago
and was not recommend. However, if they are we will be providing
transitional packages for upgrades to install corosync+pacemaker.
However, they will have to reconfigure their clusters. As far those
using pacemaker+cman+corosync or pacemaker+corosync, upgrades should
work just fine, but might require a minimal configuration change.

Unfortunately, we've discussed this with upstream in Copenhagen and they
told us "Sorry!! we are breaking the upgrade path, so those who want to
upgrade would require manual configuration." So we will providing a
guide for upgrading resources.

@Stephane:

system-config-cluster -> should be removed as well.
qpidd -> already looked into it and we should drop support to build with 'cpg'  or upgrade to the latest release.
pacemaker/libcrmcluster1 -> done already, the package is sitting in -proposed waiting on 'crmsh' binary to be processed from the NEW queue as well as the MIR.

clvm -> clvm not only depends on libcman-dev but also on libdml-dev.
libcman-dev can be easily dropped and only build clvm support for
'corosync'. However, there seems to be an issue with the packaging that
FTBFS if try to do so, which doesn't happen if I build locally. As far
as libdlm-dev, there's a new source package in the NEW queue (dlm) which
provides this binary package. Upstream split the 'dlm' from redhat-
cluster long ago, but now that we are dropping it, we need it.

So the idea here is to disable clvm for the time being until all the
stack gets release, and we can re-enable clvm.

Hope this information helps.
