Is there a way to have one cluster service "follow" another, or require they be co-located, in RHEL 5 or 6?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • When using cluster service dependencies, if we try to relocate the dependency then the dependent service does not follow it, but is instead restarted in place (not as expected).
  • Can I configure two cluster services, such that if one relocates, the other will relocate to the same node?
  • How can I configure co-located services in a cluster?
  • I would like to implement colocation with rgmanager.
  • Is it possible to configure Red Hat Service groups such that they always run together on the same cluster node?

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5 or 6 with the High Availability Add On
  • Two or more services in /etc/cluster/cluster.conf
