It sounds like there's some internal routing problem. If the node gets

Yeah, kind of what I figured.
Things to do:
Check that the broadcast messages are being sent onto the xen bridge.
Are these the packets on 6809/udp?
Sniffing on both eth0 on the VM and on the Xen bridge, I am seeing
broadcasts from the two physical hosts (xen1 and xen2, 10.20.0.201 and
202):
08:52:58.953913 IP xen1.int.technicality.org.6809 > 10.20.0.255.6809: UDP, length: 28
08:53:03.893870 IP xen2.int.technicality.org.6809 > 10.20.0.255.6809: UDP, length: 28
08:53:03.953963 IP xen1.int.technicality.org.6809 > 10.20.0.255.6809: UDP, length: 28
08:53:08.893795 IP xen2.int.technicality.org.6809 > 10.20.0.255.6809: UDP, length: 28
..but even when the Xen VM is in the cluster, I see some unicast 6808, but
no broadcast. Odd.. I'll have to investigate that.
Check that all the nodes have the same broadcast address.
First thing I checked.
Use cman_tool status to check the node addresses in use by each of the
virtual machines.
Sees the correect address on each node.
tcpdump is the thing here.
Yeah, tcpdump rules. :)
If you compiled the modules yourself then make sure you used ARCH=xen on
the make command-line or all the timeouts are way out. if you're using
the Fedora packages make sure you have >
cman-kernel-xenU-2.6.11.4-20050517.141233
I built them myself, based on the RHEL4 tree. I'm 99.9% sure that I did
pass ARCH=xen on all the builds, but I'll rebuild, just to make sure.
I do know that Xen clusters work because I'm using it here!
That's why it's so odd!
What version of Xen are you using? I just upgraded to a recent snapshot of
3.0 (with 2.0, GFS was causing the kernel to crash. Lovely.)
