If this is RHEL5, then "#service cman stop" will attempt to shutdown all associated daemons (fenced, for instance). Maybe it's just me, but I find it quite unreliable... IMHO, the best options are: 1) Use the "leave cluster" functionality from luci 2) Do it manually, something like: - umount gfs - # service clvmd stop - # service rgmanager stop - # fence_tool leave ... - # cman_tool leave remove ...
