Or just hide it? well, we are trying to test to see if thats the real problem or not.. It might not be. to make it simple, I just added that argument in the fstab on the first server and shutdown the second server. the question I was trying to ask was without shutting down and rebooting the servers, whats the right way to back both servers out of the clustered service and manually mount up the GFS partition on the first node.. I tried doing the "cman_tool leave remove" but I got the error that there were still services running, I tried shutting down everything, but still had like 3 lingering.. at this point, I just shut one down and rebooted the other with the correct mount options and everything is fine now for our testing.. I will hopefully know later today if the application will behave with its data on GFS volume mounted by the single node. thanks/regards, Jason -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
