Unless there's a confirmed "dead" by another cluster member, the node is considered alive. self_fence in the 'fs.sh' script is an exception, but not the way you might think... The node calls 'reboot -fn' if the umount command fails. However, this does /not/ obviate the requirement that another node successfully fence the newly-rebooted node prior to allowing recovery. In effect, the node is rebooted twice: once by itself, and once by another cluster member via iLO or whatever other power device you are using. -- Lon -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
