Hi
“Network goes off” – If there
is very heavy traffic on network. There is no space for cluster messages to go
across all cluster members. This makes real chaos. I am not able to figure out
a method to come out of this.
Even on this list, except on user jeff
herr, no one else have raised the issues.
An enterprise class solution can not behave
like this.
With regards
Deval Kulshrestha

Network failure results cluster environment unstable & fragile
Hi,
I'm not expert on Cluster. I have the same scenario as you do! but I'm not sure
what you meant "Network goes off" - assuming network cable unplugged,
network switch failed or NIC failed - I succeeded with bonding NICs and
redundant switch.
someone may advice with any other way..
Hope this is helpful
Thanks and regards

Please help me to resolve my problem
If network goes off on node1, and service which were not running on node1
are started by node1 with shared storage mount point, which was already
running on node 2 but both of these nodes are not able to communicate to
each other, node2 anyway already running the same service with shared
storage mount point. Because of Fencing both of these nodes try to kill
each other. Both of they got hanged up at "Stoping Cluster manager
Services.".In /var/log/messages, it shows fencing s1, fence successful.
If we disable fencing than
If network comes back nodes don't synchronize with each other. Shared
storage mount point is available to both the servers. If they try to access
storage at same storage gives IO errors. Hence this entire setup become
very unstable, fragile.
