I have 3 nodes setup and i'm using rgmanager to start the services. It works pretty good for the most part.. The only issue i have is that it sometimes takes rgmanager a while (about 5 minutes) to start the services. When this happens and I do a clustat on each server I'll get: [root@sam ~]# clustat Member Status: Quorate, Group Member Member Name State ID ------ ---- ----- -- nd01.selu.edu Online 0x0000000000000001 sam.selu.edu Online 0x0000000000000002 Service Name Owner (Last) State ------- ---- ----- ------ ----- sendmail1 (none ) stopped sendmail2 sam.selu.edu started sendmail3 nd01.selu.edu started test sam.selu.edu started [root@woody ~]# clustat Member Status: Quorate Not a member of the Resource Manager service group.
