<div class="gmail_quote">Hi, Im vishnu, I have some issues while starting my cluster. Im not sure if my configurations are ok. But then i follow RedHat Docs. When i try to start services cman, it hangs while starting fencing. The prompt never comes back. But if i do a CTRL+C and clustat, It looks like my cluster works fine. My question is that 1.Why does starting fencing never end sometimes ( without returning # promt ) 2.Any Noted Reasons for cman or fencing to fail. 3.if i give each node 2 votes in a two node cluster and expected votes=1, then starting cman on a single node gives error (two_node set but there are more than 2 nodes). </div> -- Vishnu, Developer, B I N A R Y K A R M A, Mobile : +91-9994475599 Tel : 044-64621656 email: <a href="mailto:vishnu@binarykarma.com" target="_blank">vishnu@binarykarma.com</a>
