What if fenced hangs in the middle? Then you haven't turned off the power at all, but the cluster thinks you did! Goodbye, file systems! There's no way to guarantee that both ports were turned off simultaneously, irrespective of the timeout values. :( You could do: <device name="FENCE1" option="off" port="1"/> <device name="FENCE2" option="reboot" port="1"/> <device name="FENCE1" option="on" port="1"/> ...but that's about as "optimal" as you can get while still being safe. -- Lon -- Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
