Has anybody made this work in RHEL4 U4? It doesn't work right now, but there's no really good reason it *couldn't* work. The thing is that, of course, if you have a network partition caused by a network anomaly - say an ARP storm (caused by maybe a switch loop, for example) - where you can see the router, but not the other node, both nodes will think they are quorate. This isn't a problem - because one node will fence the other node first ;) So, in the worst case, it becomes a race-to-fence. Anyone else see any problems with doing this? -- Lon -- Lon Hohberger - Software Engineer - Red Hat, Inc. -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
