RE: service state unchanged when host crashes

Hi Jakov,

I managed to get fencing working - at least enough for my experiments.  

Sure enough, I hit the same problem:

clusternode30 is running service "SENTINEL" - and then is powered down
at ~ 18:19

(The "can't get node number" looks suspicious, but fenced claims to
succeed).

Next morning - it still hasn't relocated the service:

I am going to strip my config down later on so that SENTINEL is the only
running service.   My fencing mechanism is pretty pathetic - I have
added a new fence agent that does nothing but always succeeds (which I
hope is enough for this stage in my education) - but my understanding is
that the sequence of events should be something like this:

1. <node fails>
2. cman notices  (and groupd)
3. fencing is applied to the node
4. the service is relocated - or marked as failed

regards,
Martin

Well maybe. Last time I tried RedHat Cluster Suite on Debian Lenny was
two months ago, and then I had stumbled upon the following bug:

http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx/msg06018.html

I don't know if they have fixed that bug... but it resembles totally to
your problem... Node goes down, node gets fenced, service is seen as
down by rgmanager, but there is no action to relocate it to a live
cluster member. That was a start of a project for me, so after that I
migrated to CentOS 5 (which is a free RHEL fork).

I can see that from the logs now :) If you get to the point where bug
that I explained earlier pops up, please share that information here so
that we know the state of RHCS on Debian.
