Just an update...I set up the cluster to communicate over a crossover cable, and to monitor_link for the public IP address. This works great for the scenario where one node loses its public network link (services fail over to the other node, without fencing), and reasonably well for the scenario where both lose their public links (cluster services stop cleanly after both nodes realize they lost their links, but nothing is fenced). The only remaining thing I want to do is get the deadnode_timeout set up so that if the crossover cable link is lost, one node will always fence the other first (rather than both at the same time). I tried just changing the value stored in /proc/cluster/config/cman/deadnode_timeout, but this does not hold after a reboot (it changes back to default 21). Does anyone know the right way to change this value on one node only? -Andrew L -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
