In manual and documentation is absolutely > missing any info about Inc column! I'm pretty sure it's the Totem protocol sequence # the local node recorded for when it first "saw" the node. The "Joined" time is the same thing, except it's according to the local node's clock instead of the Totem token sequence #. That's all they are.

The sequence # is different the next time the node is "seen". You'll also notice the "Joined" value is different. The "Inc" column and "Joined" column are set at the same time but are not related to each other value-wise. -- Lon -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
