It will use the interface bound to the IP address of the hostname by default. If you want to use the otehr interface then specify the name associated with the inerface on the command-line to "cman_tool join" > 2. is-it configurable somewhere ? > > 3. is the time period between each ping on heart beat > configurable somewhere ? in /proc/cluster/config/cman/ there are files you can poke values into. This must be done beteen loading the cman module and running cman_tool join. > 4. Is there a risk to split the cluster when using > only one ETH interface ? Yes. If you want to use both interfaces then join them using the Linux bonding driver. -- patrick -- Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
