Hello, I'm experimenting with a 2-nodes cluster, based on RHEL4. The goal is to manage a service failover, I don't need GFS for now. I think the following packages are sufficient: ccs Manage the cluster configuration file cman Symmetric Cluster Manager cman-kernel Back end behind cman dlm Distributed Lock Manager dlm-kernel Back end behind dlm fence Power control magma cluster-abstraction library magma-plugins Maybe we need the sm plugin? Is this correct? Anyway I've built and installed these 1.01 packages on the two nodes. But when I start the cluster, both nodes seem to think they're the only node in town. Any clue welcome! # Startup procedure I used on both nodes: depmod -a modprobe cman modprobe dlm ccsd cman_tool join # What node 1 sees: [root@eiros3 ~]# cman_tool status Protocol version: 5.0.1 Config version: 2 Cluster name: eiros Cluster ID: 3249 Cluster Member: Yes Membership state: Cluster-Member Nodes: 1 Expected_votes: 1 Total_votes: 1 Quorum: 1 Active subsystems: 0 Node name: eiros3 Node addresses: 192.168.8.73 [root@eiros3 ~]# cman_tool nodes Node Votes Exp Sts Name 1 1 1 M eiros3 # What node 2 sees: [root@eiros4 ~]# cman_tool status Protocol version: 5.0.1 Config version: 2 Cluster name: eiros Cluster ID: 3249 Cluster Member: Yes Membership state: Cluster-Member Nodes: 1 Expected_votes: 1 Total_votes: 1 Quorum: 1 Active subsystems: 0 Node name: eiros4 Node addresses: 192.168.8.74 [root@eiros4 ~]# cman_tool nodes Node Votes Exp Sts Name 2 1 1 M eiros4 # Here's the cluster.conf file: <?xml version="1.0"?> <cluster name="eiros" config_version="2"> <fencedevices> <fencedevice name="eiros3-ilo" agent="fence_ilo" hostname="eiros3-mp" login="login" passwd="passwd"/> <fencedevice name="eiros4-ilo" agent="fence_ilo" hostname="eiros4-mp" login="login" passwd="passwd"/> <fencedevice name="last_resort" agent="fence_manual"/> </fencedevices> <clusternodes> <clusternode name="eiros3" nodeid="1" votes="1"> <fence> <!-- "power" method is tried before all others --> <method name="power"> <device name="eiros3-ilo"/> </method> <method name="human"> <device name="last_resort" ipaddr="eiros3"/> </method> </fence> </clusternode> <clusternode name="eiros4" nodeid="2" votes="1"> <fence> <!-- "power" method is tried before all others --> <method name="power"> <device name="eiros4-ilo"/> </method> <method name="human"> <device name="last_resort" ipaddr="eiros4"/> </method> </fence> </clusternode> </clusternodes> <!-- 2-nodes clusters need this special quorum adjustment --> <cman port="6809" two_node="1" expected_votes="1"> </cman> </cluster> ======================================================================== = Jean-François Larvoire ========= _/ =========== = Hewlett-Packard ======= _/ ======= = 5 Avenue Raymond Chanas, Eybens ===== _/_/_/ _/_/_/ ===== = 38053 Grenoble Cedex 9, FRANCE ===== _/ _/ _/ _/ ===== = Phone: +33 476 14 13 38 ===== _/ _/ _/_/_/ ===== = Fax: +33 476 14 45 19 ======= _/ ======= = Email: jean-francois.larvoire@xxxxxx ========== _/ ========== ======================================================================== -- Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
