Re: Fencing issue using IPMI (nodes fencing each other ending in a loop)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



You may be having the same issue as I have:
 Node won't rejoin after reboot

Do you have Red Hat support case open for it? If you do, can you send me
the issue number privately (!) ? I would use it in our support case,
because the issues may be related.

Also:
- Is IGMP Snooping enabled on Cisco switches? Try disabling it, if
  possible.
- RHEL5.2 is using IGMPv3 by default. Try moving to IGMPv2
