Is there any free sector that can be used by a cluster to store it's last lifesign in case of a partitioned network? I once had such a situation with a normal filesystem which was nasty enough. I plan to write a sektor via dd, containing a flag "in use" and a timestamp to be updated each minute. Is there any space left on a pv or a raid1 disk? I do not expect anyone to support this solution. (Solutions which work don't need support) I could also use some space behind the MBR instead, but that means to be forced to create partitions for lvm or raid.
