Hi! I can only recommend the system-config-cluster GUI, but if you feel brave enough you can do it by hand This example is for a sanbox2, but it should get you going: ... <fence_daemon post_fail_delay="0" post_join_delay="3"/> <clusternodes> <clusternode name="clusty1" votes="1"> <fence> <method name="1"> <device name="sanbox" port="0"/> </method> </fence> </clusternode> <clusternode name="clusty2" votes="1"> <fence> <method name="1"> <device name="sanbox" port="1"/> </method> </fence> </clusternode> .... </clusternodes> <fencedevices> <fencedevice agent="fence_sanbox2" ipaddr="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" login="username" name="sanbox" passwd="password"/> </fencedevices> ... And don't forget to check the fence_brocade manpage for your brocade switch for further options...

I cannot find any documentation showing what I need to set up on the brocade itself and within the cluster.conf file as well to make this work.The system-config-cluster application supports brocade fencing. It is a two part process - first you define the switch as a fence device; type brocade, then you select a node an click "Manage fencing for this node" and declare a fence instance.Ah, I'm at the command line :). So, there is nothing I need to do on the brocade itself then? The cluster ports aren't connected directly, they are connected into a compaq hub, then the hub is connected into the brocade. The brocade seems to know about the external ports however since they are listed when I look on the switch. As for the conf file, I've not found enough information on how to build a good conf file so know this one is probably not even complete. Been working on other parts of the problems then wanting to get to this. <?xml version="1.0"?> <cluster config_version="40" name="vgcomp"> <fence_daemon clean_start="1" post_fail_delay="0" post_join_delay="3"/> <clusternodes> <clusternode name="cweb92.companions.com" nodeid="92" votes="1"/> <clusternode name="cweb93.companions.com" nodeid="93" votes="1"/> <clusternode name="cweb94.companions.com" nodeid="94" votes="1"/> <clusternode name="dev.companions.com" nodeid="99" votes="1"/> <clusternode name="qm247.companions.com" nodeid="247" votes="1"/> <clusternode name="qm248.companions.com" nodeid="248" votes="1"/> <clusternode name="qm249.companions.com" nodeid="249" votes="1"/> <clusternode name="qm250.companions.com" nodeid="250" votes="1"/> </clusternodes> <cman/> <fencedevices> <fencedevice agent="fence_brocade" ipaddr="x.x.x.x" login="xxx" name="brocade" passwd="xxx"/> </fencedevices> <rm> <failoverdomains/> <resources/> </rm> </cluster> -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Frank Hellmann Optical Art GmbH Waterloohain 7a DI Supervisor http://www.opticalart.de 22769 Hamburg frank@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Tel: ++49 40 5111051 Fax: ++49 40 43169199 |
