Hi ,

I am  configuring   active/active clustering of two  centos-6.2 virtual 
machines. I am using gfs2 filesystem as common storage on both the 
VM's.   We need rpm pacakages namd "dlm and kernel-module-extra"  for 
active/active clustering as per documentation.

Any idea how can i get these packages for centos-6.2 so that i configure 
the active /active clustering using gfs2.

Is there any documentation on the web for pacemaker  in centos-6.2 ?

Thanx in advance!!!!!!!

Regards
Pradeep Kumar
