After poring through vm.sh and adding some logging I see that clusvcadm
on the bad cluster is running "vm.sh status" and fails after "virsh
domstate test". Both rg_test on the bad cluster and clusvcadm on a
working cluster run "vm.sh start" which correctly follows up with "virsh
create /mnt/shared/xml/test.xml". I can't think of any reason why this
would be happening though.
