Hi,
We will share our solution through this event "On Building an Auto-healing Resource Cluster using Senlin <https://www.openstack.org/summit/barcelona-2016/summit-schedule/events/15037/on-building-an-auto-healing-resource-cluster-using-senlin>” on Barcelona Summit.
If the timeslot is available for us, we are definitely willing to discuss more details about how we(senlin) cooperate with the PWG for achieving the HA solution.

Best Regards,
Ethan Lynn
