Adding SLES support to sap_ha_prepare_pacemaker role

[mr-stringer]

I've started to look at adding SLES support to the sap_ha_prepare_pacemaker role and then do the same with other sap_ha_* roles. Currently, the code is almost all RedHat specific so requires the ability to branch on OS type (probably through the ansible_distribution fact).

My question is should I repeat the pattern found in roles like sap_hana_preconfigure where, based on OS, the code sources OS specific task files? This seems likes the cleanest approach and will help reduce the amount of Ansible output. But I want to get a little feedback before I start writing this.

Cheers, Steve.

The former role sap_ha_prepare_pacemaker does not exist anymore. This code is not compatible with the replacement role, sap_ha_pacemaker_cluster, which wraps around the ha_cluster Linux System Role to avoid duplication and increase flexibility for users.

Please see richm's comment above - the issue to support crmsh for other OS distributions has been raised with the ha_cluster role.

@marcelmamula is this something that you are working on?

SLES15 and SLES4SAP 15 support was added to ha_cluster underlying role in linux-system-roles/ha_cluster#186 and sap_ha PR #642 is under review now. This issue can be closed.
