Hello all, Just installed a 2-node cluster 15 mins ago, by the book, using bob peterson's cookbook and the official CS guide, but only one of my nodes comes up and joins the cluster, the other one stays in the "joining" state with the message in "/var/log/messages" file stating cman: cman_tool: Node is already active failed it had tried pretty hard to join the cluster when I was first bringing it up and even says "Connected to cluster infrastructure via: CMAN/SM Plugin v1.1.5" Initial status:: Inquorate Remote copy of cluster.conf is from quorate node. Local Version # : 3 Remote version #: 3 Note, I don't have the "fenced" running yet. Also I had specified in my cluster.conf file thusly <cman two_node="1" expected_votes="1"> </cman> What am I doing wrong? Thx \R -- Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
