Can you help me?
If you need help with qdisk, the best documentation for it at the moment
is via "man qdisk" (also assuming you use CentOS / Cluster Suite 4.4.
I need to make you aware of the following as per the man page:
"At this time, this daemon supports a maximum of 16 nodes. This is
primarily a scalability issue: As we increase the node count, we
increase the amount of synchronous I/O contention on the shared quorum
disk."
so using qdisk with 35 nodes may either
a) still work but not be supported - not a problem if you are running
CentOS)
b) not work at all, meaning it will not be an option for you.
