Lingu,
I had this same problem a few weeks back.
This is how I solved it.
Make sure your NIC's are at 1G.
Add the following entries into your cluster.ccs file and write it to
disk;
heartbeat_rate = 30
allowed_misses = 4
My cluster.ccs file looks like this now;
cluster {
name = "alpha"
lock_gulm {
servers = ["server1", "server2", "server3"]
heartbeat_rate = 30
allowed_misses = 4
}
}
This example procedure shows how to change configuration files in a CCS
archive.
1. Extract configuration files from the CCA device into temporary
directory /root/alpha-new/.
ccs_tool extract /dev/pool/alpha_cca /root/alpha-new/
2. Make changes to the configuration files in /root/alpha-new/.
3. Create a new CCS archive on the CCA device by using the -O (override)
flag to forcibly overwrite
the existing CCS archive.
ccs_tool -O create /root/alpha-new/ /dev/pool/alpha_cca
What you are suggesting ( cross over cable) is not supported at least in
GFS 6.0 which I assume you are running with RHEL 3.0

Subject: Cluster Heart Beat Using Cross Over Cable
Hi,
I am running two node active/passive cluster running RHEL3 update
8 64 bit OS on Hp Box with external hp storage connected via scsi. My
cluster was running fine for last 3 years.But all of a sudden cluster
service keep on shifting (atleast one time in a day )form one node to
another.
After analysed the syslog i found that due to some network
fluctuation service was getting shifted.Both the nodes has two NIC
bonded together and configured with below ip.
My network details:
192.168.1.2 --node 1 physical ip with class c subnet (bond0 )
192.168.1.3 --node 2 physical ip with class c subnet (bond0 )
192.168.1.4 --- floating ip ( cluster )
Since it is a very critical and busy server may be due to heavy
network load some hear beat signal is getting missed resulting in
shifting of service from one node to another.
So i planned to connect crossover cable for heart beat messages, can
any one guide me or provide me the link that best explains how to do
the same and the changes i have to made in cluster configuration file
after connecting the crossover cable.
Regards,
Lingu
