I am using FC4 updated to the lastest releases-updated version and am having
some problems getting the wti fence agent to work. I think perhaps I have a
config error. I have a three node cluster. When a node needs fencing, the
following messages appear
>From member jrmedia-c
Feb 15 10:54:46 jrmedia-c kernel: CMAN: removing node jrmedia-a from the
cluster : Missed too many heartbeats
Feb 15 10:54:47 jrmedia-c fenced[2069]: fencing deferred to jrmedia-b
>From member Jrmedia-b
Feb 15 10:54:45 jrmedia-b fenced[2055]: jrmedia-a not a cluster member after
0 sec post_fail_delay
Feb 15 10:54:45 jrmedia-b fenced[2055]: fencing node "jrmedia-a"
Feb 15 10:54:45 jrmedia-b fence_manual: Node jrmedia-a needs to be reset
before recovery can procede. Waiting for jrmedia-a to rejoin the cluster or
for manual acknowledgement that it has been reset (i.e. fence_ack_manual -n
jrmedia-a)
After a "fence_ack_manual -n jrmedia-a" the following message appears.
Feb 15 10:56:38 jrmedia-b fenced[2055]: fence "jrmedia-a" success
There is no mention of trying to use the wti fence agent. It should be
noted the wti fence device has no password and I am not trying to use the
brocade agents that I have named as devices at the moment. Below is an
extract from my cluster.conf file.
