Re: Two clusters in the network with same "name" in cluster.conf

Hi Digi,

1. sniplet of cluster.conf file from one cluster  :-

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<cluster alias="Cluster" config_version="1" name="Cluster">
  <clusternodes>
    <clusternode name="blade4-2" nodeid="2" votes="1">
      <fence>
        <method name="1">
          <device blade="2" missing_as_off="1" name="BladeCenterFencing"/>
        </method>
      </fence>
    </clusternode>
    <clusternode name="blade4-1" nodeid="1" votes="1">
      <fence>
        <method name="1">
          <device blade="1" missing_as_off="1" name="BladeCenterFencing"/>
        </method>
      </fence>
    </clusternode>
  </clusternodes>
  <cman expected_votes="1" two_node="1"/>
  <fencedevices>
    <fencedevice agent="fence_bladecenter" ipaddr="XXXXX" login="USERID" name="BladeCenterFencing" passwd="******"/>
  </fencedevices>

...

Of another cluster is same except node names differ(they blade3-1 and blade3-2).

2.

In /etc/hosts

192.168.154.1/24 blade4-1.privdomain blade4-1 (this goes on eth1 of blade4-1)
192.168.154.2/24 blade4-2.privdomain blade4-2 (this goes on eth1 of blade4-2)

Same is with blade3-1 and blade3-2 (Cluster 2)

192.168.153.1/24 blade3-1.privdomain blade3-1 (this goes on eth1 of blade3-1)
192.168.153.2/24 blade3-2.privdomain blade3-2 (this goes on eth1 of blade3-2)

3. Public IP of blade4-1 & blade4-2 (Cluster 1) and blade3-1 & blade3-2 (Cluster 2) are on same subnet 10.5.81.xxx and subnet mask is 255.255.255.

Thanks

I'll admit to having trouble following you... So let's get some basics;

* What is the cluster.conf of either cluster?
* What exact IPs does the hostnames, as set in the cluster.conf, resolve to?
* What is the exact IP of eth0 and eth1 on each node, inc. netmask?

As a point of curiosity; why do you need the cluster names to be identical?
