[Linux-cluster] node fails to join cluster after it was fenced

[Luis Godoy Gonzalez]

Hi

The "IPtable" service is not running on both nodes.
We are thinking in update the platform (RHE4 U4 RHCS 4U4) but thid is 
not easy right now because we have several servers on production.
Another reason to not do it the version update is that we are waiting 
for an update 5 por RHE4 or the production release for RHE5.
In this moment we only update "rgmanager" in some sites (we have several 
issues with the rgmanager of update 2 RHCS4).

Thanks again for you reply.

Best regards,

Luis G.
