Hello, My answers is just feelings, I have to little experiment on RHCS 6. A. Your token lose is on token, consensus comes after losing token. B. Maybe your problem is on network, not on cluster tuning. C. No idea D. I think it doesn't. Token multicast use your network address matching nodename resolved. I think you should use your interconnect link on one single interface for testing without bonding. If your problem disepear, your bond mode 5 is KO. Regards, -- .`'`.
