I just rebuilt RPMs from the source RPMs of RHEL5 released a few days ago
from
(ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/os/SRPMS/cman-2.0.60-1.el5.src.rpm)

cman_start_notification() still seems broken, it doesn't even trigger the
callback registered with cman_start_notification().

In addition to that, monitoring the fd returned by cman_get_fd() through
select returns no events when I force other nodes to close their
applications. Is application level notification broken or unsupported in
this release?


Thanks in advance,
