I'm trying to install pacemaker on my centos 5.11 test server. I'm setting up a 2 node cluster for postgres. Pacemaker install failed due to dependency of package resource-agents. I cannot find the rpm in any of the centos repo at clusterlabs. I found the source rpm and compiled and installed succesfully. Pacemaker still fails to find resource-agents.

--> Finished Dependency Resolution
pacemaker-1.1.8-2.el5.i686 from clusterlabs-next has depsolving problems
  --> Missing Dependency: resource-agents is needed by package pacemaker-1.1.8-2.el5.i686 (clusterlabs-next)
pacemaker-1.1.8-2.el5.x86_64 from clusterlabs-next has depsolving problems
  --> Missing Dependency: resource-agents is needed by package pacemaker-1.1.8-2.el5.x86_64 (clusterlabs-next)
Error: Missing Dependency: resource-agents is needed by package pacemaker-1.1.8-2.el5.x86_64 (clusterlabs-next)
Error: Missing Dependency: resource-agents is needed by package pacemaker-1.1.8-2.el5.i686 (clusterlabs-next)
 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
                        package-cleanup --dupes
                        rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

I'm not sure where resource-agents is supposed to be installed. I copied the source to a temp dir and extracted and compiled there. Is it possible resource-agents is not installed in the correct location?

  • You installed resource-agents from source manually? That's not going to help rpm at all. It doesn't know anything about that. You need an rpm of it for rpm to notice it. – Etan Reisner Jul 16 '15 at 15:17
  • resource-agents is an rpm in the clusterlabs-next repository (the same as pacemaker) it should have just worked I think. Can you show the contents of the `.repo` file you have for `clusterlabs-next`? Because I don't see the `1.1.8` version in the [repository](http://clusterlabs.org/rpm-next/epel-5/x86_64/) I found online. – Etan Reisner Jul 16 '15 at 15:19

    I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because it's not about programming. Try http://unix.stackexchange.com/ – Keith Thompson Jul 16 '15 at 15:20
  • Thanks, that is very helpful. I'm stuck with centos5, powers that be are not interested in upgrading. I'll keep looking for a rpm for resource-agents for centos5. Its hard to believe that clusterlabs has installs for centos5 just no resource-agents. – dean Jul 16 '15 at 15:20
  • Ah, wait, the RHEL repo has that vesrion and doesn't have resource-agents. If you are on CentOS you should probably try the [epel repo](http://clusterlabs.org/rpm-next/epel-5/x86_64/) and not the [rhel repo](http://clusterlabs.org/rpm-next/rhel-5/x86_64/). Presumably resources-agents is something that comes with RHEL. – Etan Reisner Jul 16 '15 at 15:21
  • Since Keith doesn't like my question, I'll try unix.stackexchange. Etan, I'll look closer at clusterlabs. I've not been able to find that rpm yet. – dean Jul 16 '15 at 15:22
  • Thank you Etan you are very helpful. – dean Jul 16 '15 at 15:23
  • so keith, how do I close? – dean Jul 16 '15 at 15:23

wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/5/x86_64/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm
rpm -Uvh epel-release-5*.rpm
wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/pacemaker.repo http://clusterlabs.org/rpm/epel-5/clusterlabs.repo

then finally,

yum install -y pacemaker.$(uname -i) corosync.$(uname -i)
