We want to use a dedicated network for heartbeat communication.<o:p></o:p> So we have 2 interfaces – one for “data” and one for heartbeat communication.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> I tried the way explained in <a href="http://sources.redhat.com/cluster/faq.html#cman_heartbeat_nic">http://sources.redhat.com/cluster/faq.html#cman_heartbeat_nic</a> but when I start cman:<o:p></o:p> Starting cluster:<o:p></o:p> 牋 Loading modules... done<o:p></o:p> 牋 Mounting configfs... done<o:p></o:p> 牋 Starting ccsd... done<o:p></o:p> 牋 Starting cman... failed<o:p></o:p> cman not started: Overridden node name is not in CCS /usr/sbin/cman_tool: aisexec daemon didn't start<o:p></o:p> 牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋 [FAILED]<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> I used the name pg-hba-001 (heartbeat) in /etc/init.d/cman – the node is configured with the name pg-ba-001 in cluster.conf.<o:p></o:p> When I use the heartbeat-name in cluster.conf there’s no problem. But that’s not what I want.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> It would be nice if there is any way to tell cman that it should use the heartbeat connection for heartbeat communication – but the node name should be the original pg-ba-001.<o:p></o:p> The perfect solution in my opinion would be that cman uses both available paths – first the heartbeat connection (which is in fact a direct node to node connection) and if this one fails for any reason the connection over regular LAN.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Is there any way to achieve that?<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Thanks in advance,<o:p></o:p> Robert<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Fabasoft R&D Software GmbH & Co KG Honauerstra遝 4 4020 Linz Austria Tel: [43] (732) 60 61 62 Fax: [43] (732) 60 61 62-609 E-Mail: <a href="mailto:Robert.Hell@fabasoft.com" title="mailto:Petra.Ofenberger@fabasoft.com">Robert.Hell@fabasoft.com</a> <a href="http://www.fabasoft.com" title="http://www.fabasoft.com/ outbind://5/www.fabasoft.com">www.fabasoft.com</a><o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Fabasoft R&D Software GmbH & Co KG: Handelsgericht Linz, FN 190334d<o:p></o:p> Komplement鋜: Fabasoft R&D Software GmbH, Handelsgericht Linz, FN 190091x<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> </div> </body> </html>
