They are the same packages. The ones on the CentOS mirror have been
signed with the CentOS-3 GPG key.
You need to look at the redhat docs, either in the
rh-gfs-en-6.0-4.noarch.rpm package or online
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/csgfs/admin-guide/
Read through the manual carefully before you start. You need to make
some decisions about how to configure everything. I had to start over a
few times before I got things working the way I wanted.
I keep my config files in a directory with a make file:
cat Makefile
local.cca: cluster.ccs fence.ccs nodes.ccs
ccs_tool -O create . local.cca
chown gfs. local.cca
And store the ccs in a file because I am using GNBD and not shared
storage. If you do use GFS then you will need to customise the init
scripts.
I kept some notes here
http://www.byteclub.net/wiki/index.php?title=GFS_Cluster
but they are probably out of date.
