Hi, we are running a 4 node cluster successfully. Now we try to join an additional node - but it fails. We upgraded the cluster.conf file to reflect the new node. [root@www5 ~]# ccs_tool update /etc/cluster/cluster.conf Config file updated from version 10 to 11 Update complete. cluster.conf was checked and is synchron on all nodes, hosts files are also fine. When we try to join the new node gfsserver2 [root@gfsserver2 cluster]# cman_tool join we get [root@gfsserver2 cluster]# CMAN: Cluster membership rejected And the interesting part is: Oct 7 13:51:59 gfsserver ccsd[415]: Update of cluster.conf complete (version 10 -> 11). Oct 7 13:52:00 gfsserver kernel: CMAN: Join request from gfsserver2.devcon.cc rejected, config version local 10 remote 11 Why do the 4 existing nodes not check, that they also have version 11 in use ? Or do we have to "reload" anything additionally to the ccs_tool update command ?
