Re: Cman (and corosync) starting before network interface is ready

Can I disable Totem RRP and use some thing else?  
Is there something to make things compatible with STP?


Regards.

Hi everyone,

Just let me ask one small thing.
Did you enable Spanning Tree Protocol on the interconnect switch?
STP is not compatible with TOTEM RRP, it's because STP is flapping all the time between BLOCKED / FORWARDING state on the port, then TOTEM will be not able to transmit heartbeat packages and when you get a number of four TOTEM error (an error is a time ~238 ms + overhead) the node can be fenced or can raise issue like this.

Remember configure all the interconnect ports in the same multicast group too.

Bests regards.
