This is on RHEL5. b.t.w., not RHEL4. I was talking about FAQ cman#24 (this is what you want, right? ). I stated the quorate math, sorry for that. It should be "qdisc votes = nodes - 1" and "cman expected votes = votes - 1". You could give <qdisc votes="2"> in combination with <cman expected_votes="3"> a try then. If that vote increment in your qdisc doesn't work, FAQ cman#23 could fix your circular fencing problems for real in a two node cluster. But we don't use this here at our site as we have more than two nodes. Marc -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
