Correct, it needs a shared volume. Without one, you should use cman two_node mode. > Will this heuristic or something similar work in <rm> or anywhere > else?

That's mostly because there's no mechanism to trigger service transitions from external sources (except user requests). So what you're trying to do is prevent starting a service unless X is present (which it sounds like you succeeded in doing), where X is something not on the cluster. What you want to do now is retry starting the service if X should become available. Is that about right? Simplest thing right now is to use 'mon' or another script outside the cluster to enable/disable the service when resources become available (or not). e.g.: http://mon.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Main_Page I do not think making rgmanager do it internally would be difficult, at least not in the RHEL5 branch. You should file a bugzilla. Either of the two solutions (using 'mon' or adding it to rgmanager) should obviate the need for augmenting your service, too - if the resource is unavailable, the service won't start (ever, assuming you have autostart="0"), so there's no reason to keep the check in the service itself. -- Lon -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
