Hi Is there a similar rule with CS5 ? I mean if we increase the heart-beat timeout, is there some other parameters to adjust together ?

The DLM's lock_timeout should always be greater than cman's deadnode_timeout. A sensible minimum is about 1.5 times the cman value, but it can go as high as you like. -- Chrissie -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
