The scsi_watchdog.conf was added to all of my nodes when I did a yum update on all nodes connected to this cluster. I'm not even sure why it's in the /etc/cluster directory and I don't use standard SCSI since I'm using fibre channel. I'm now suspecting that what ever this is, it is the cause of my web server slow down's. I can't seem to find much about this so thought I should ask.

scsi_watchdog.conf is only being used if 1) you use scsi reservations as a fence method and 2) you explicitly state in a sysconfig file that you want scsi_watchdog to run. I'm guessing that neither of these apply to use, and therefore the scsi_watchdog is having no effect. It is disabled by default.

I didn't notice that something had changed until now after I upgraded all

-rw-r-----   1 root root  1249 Nov 10 18:40 .cluster.conf
-rw-r-----   1 root root  1249 Nov 13 09:50 cluster.conf
-rw-r--r--   1 root root    34 Aug 30 17:55 scsi_watchdog.conf

Since that update, the web nodes have been VERY slow, sluggish, barely
responding at times to web requests.

Could that be related to this? I am not finding a whole lot about this on the
net?

What changed?

scsi_watchdog.conf should have no effect. It isn't even uses unless you
configure watchdog (softdog) support for scsi reservations.
