The gulm lock manager requires a minimum of 3 nodes in order to be able to determine who is master. With only two nodes running and you lose one, the remaining node has no way to determine that you are not in a split brain situation. So, the lock manager waits until quorum is restored. For a two node cluster, you need to be running the GFS 6.1 and DLM for a lock manager on a 2.6 kernel. Kevin -- Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
