One thing that seems not to be solved by the third node is the slow reboot. After writing "reboot" on a node shell, with all the other nodes running and with the cluster quorated, sometimes it takes from about 8 to more than 17 minutes before actually rebooting, and the following messages appear at the console: openais[pid]: [TOTEM] The token was lost in the OPERATIONAL state. openais[pid]: [TOTEM] Receive multicast socket recv buffer size (288000 bytes). openais[pid]: [TOTEM] Transmit multicast socket send buffer size (262142 bytes). openais[pid]: [TOTEM] The network interface is down. openais[pid]: [TOTEM] entering GATHER state from 15. openais[pid]: [TOTEM] entering GATHER state from 2. openais[pid]: [TOTEM] entering GATHER state from 0. openais[pid]: [TOTEM] The consensus timeout expired. openais[pid]: [TOTEM] entering GATHER state from 3. openais[pid]: [TOTEM] The consensus timeout expired. openais[pid]: [TOTEM] entering GATHER state from 3. Then the last 2 lines are repeated multiple times. I saw a mail in this list stating that this can be solved by setting /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward to 1, but here it doesn't make any difference, then another one saying that it could be an iptables issue, but here linux firewall is disabled. Is this the correct way of rebooting a node? Any chance to have a faster clean reboot?
