Hi, I spent the whole day (sunday) trying to get this working... I guess these two questions might solve the issue. 1. Can I have a cluster span over more than one subnet? 2. When I try to start the cluster software, I always have to start it on all nodes at the same time. If I don't do it, startup will hang while fenced is starting up. I am using manual fencing. Probably the default configuration. The problem is that some of the nodes produce kernel-panics (when starting cman). so i would like to start the nodes one by one and test what the problem is. <fence_daemon post_fail_delay="5" post_join_delay="20"/> ... <clusternode name="eon" votes="1"> <fence> <method name="1"> <device name="human" nodename="eon"/> </method> </fence> </clusternode> ... <fencedevices> <fencedevice agent="fence_manual" name="human"/> </fencedevices> -- "Feel free" - 10 GB Mailbox, 100 FreeSMS/Monat ...
