Not quite right, fenced is not starting up on fiveoften. fence_tool has some extra checking and debug output from Dave Tiegland, and I believe it is not starting up when it finds an error. If I try to mount a GFS partition on fiveoften, I get a permission denied. Foruoften starts up fenced and I can mount up GFS. Clvmd will start up and seems to run fine on both hosts. The first time I activate the logical volumes, the directory in /dev/ for the volume group is not created. I have to turn the volume group off again and then turn it back on to get the directory created: [root@fiveoften mbrookov]# vgchange -aly 3 logical volume(s) in volume group "test_vg" now active [root@fiveoften mbrookov]# ls /dev/test_vg ls: /dev/test_vg: No such file or directory [root@fiveoften mbrookov]# vgchange -aln /dev/test_vg: opendir failed: No such file or directory /dev/test_vg: opendir failed: No such file or directory /dev/test_vg: opendir failed: No such file or directory 0 logical volume(s) in volume group "test_vg" now active [root@fiveoften mbrookov]# vgchange -aly 3 logical volume(s) in volume group "test_vg" now active [root@fiveoften mbrookov]# ls /dev/test_vg testext3@ test_lv@ www_lv@ [root@fiveoften mbrookov]# mount -t gfs /dev/test_vg/www_lv /mnt/www mount: permission denied [root@fiveoften mbrookov]# Fouroften has the same problem with making the volume group available, but the mount is successful. I can mount and use the file systems on fouroften only. Before the debug patch from Dave, I was able to get both hosts to mount the partition. Fencing would not work correctly because fence_tool on fiveoften was getting the connection refused. One more odd thing, fencing is only a problem on fiveoften. Fouroften has not had this problem. I tried to start fiveoften before fouroften and the fence_tool problem stayed on fiveoften. Both systems are running Fedora core 3 with the same install on both hosts, and both systems are identical 1 GHZ Pentium 3 workstations with 512MB ram sharing 2 SCSI disks on an Adaptec 2940 controller. The only difference between the 2 is the host name and IP address, and the fact that I compiled GFS and the kernel on fouroften and copied it to fiveoften. thanks for your help Matt mbrookov@xxxxxxxxx
