[Pacemaker] owership of created symlink

[andreas graeper]

thanks for your answer.
i was next to the solution: need root:exim 775 for the symlink.target.
after `chown root.mail` i `chown 775` and did not realize.

> Also make sure the uid/gid is the same on all nodes.
good hint! i am testing on different machines/os. thanks a lot.

i`m still looking for a guide, that tells what part of system to mirror,
what services to get managed by pacemaker. currently (a prepaired system)
there is only a partition for customer data and application and only their
application are managed by pacemaker (after
ipaddr2,drbd,filesystem,exportfs)

is there any reason to clone a nfs-server ?

thanks in advance
