[Linux-cluster] Debian 6, GFS2, chkconfig

[Daniel Meszaros]

Hi there,

I had to figure out that there seems to be an incompatibility of 
chkconfig and the cman-Initscript under Debian 6(.0.2). I recognized it 
after having installed chkconfig.

With chkconfig installed I get this...
# service cman restart
Stopping cluster:
    Leaving fence domain... [  OK  ]
    Stopping gfs_controld... [  OK  ]
    Stopping dlm_controld... [  OK  ]
    Stopping fenced... [  OK  ]
    Stopping cman... [  OK  ]
    Unloading kernel modules... [  OK  ]
    Unmounting configfs... [  OK  ]
Starting cluster:
    Checking Network Manager... NetworkManager: unknown service

Network Manager is configured to run. Please disable it in the cluster.
[FAILED]

I checked the Initscipt for the error message:
# less /etc/init.d/cman
[...]
network_manager_enabled()
{
         if type chkconfig >/dev/null 2>&1 && chkconfig NetworkManager; 
then
                 errmsg="\nNetwork Manager is configured to run. Please 
disable it in the cluster."
                 return 1
         fi

         if status NetworkManager > /dev/null 2>&1 || \
            status network-manager > /dev/null; then
                 errmsg="\nNetwork Manager is running. Please disable it 
in the cluster."
                 return 1
         fi
         return 0
}

Without chkconfig it works fine:
# service cman restart
Stopping cluster:
    Leaving fence domain... [  OK  ]
    Stopping gfs_controld... [  OK  ]
    Stopping dlm_controld... [  OK  ]
    Stopping fenced... [  OK  ]
    Stopping cman... [  OK  ]
    Unloading kernel modules... [  OK  ]
    Unmounting configfs... [  OK  ]
Starting cluster:
    Checking Network Manager... [  OK  ]
    Global setup... [  OK  ]
    Loading kernel modules... [  OK  ]
    Mounting configfs... [  OK  ]
    Starting cman... [  OK  ]
    Waiting for quorum... [  OK  ]
    Starting fenced... [  OK  ]
    Starting dlm_controld... [  OK  ]
    Starting gfs_controld... [  OK  ]
    Unfencing self... [  OK  ]
    Joining fence domain... [  OK  ]

A possible workaround could be to temporarily rename the "chkconfig" 
command. I simply uninstalled it.

CU,
Mészi.
