yes, I updated the cluster.conf by adding more nodes. e.g., I added a couple of these blocks (6 more nodes to be exact) <clusternode name="blade06" nodeid="1" votes="1"> <multicast addr="224.0.0.18" interface="eth0"/> <fence> <method name="single"> <device name="human" ipaddr="129.58.15.6"/> </method> </fence> </clusternode> I first updated the file (incrementing the version), and then ran: ccs_tool update cluster.conf cman_tool version -r 3 These commands completed without incident. The failure occured when running 'cman_tool join -w' on the new node. On 16, May, 2005, David Teigland declared: > On Sun, May 15, 2005 at 11:06:23AM -0400, Dan B.
