Hi,
I'm running a two node failover cluster. Yesterday the cluster tried to manage a state transition. In the log files I found the following entries: heartbeat[6905]: 2009/02/10_21:45:55 WARN: node nagios-drbd2: is dead heartbeat[6905]: 2009/02/10_21:45:55 info: Link nagios-drbd2:eth1 dead. A few minutes later the node that was still alive tried to take over the resources and created the following entries in the log file ( the resource "ipaddress" is an example, there are a lot more entries for the other resources that were running on the cluster ): pengine[7370]: 2009/02/10_21:45:59 WARN: custom_action: Action resource_nagios_ipaddress_stop_0 on nagios-drbd2 is unrunnable (offline) pengine[7370]: 2009/02/10_21:45:59 WARN: custom_action: Marking node nagios-drbd2 unclean Further more there a several entries telling: stonithd[6916]: 2009/02/10_21:46:30 ERROR: Failed to STONITH the node nagios-drbd2: optype=RESET, op_result=TIMEOUT The stonith is running via ssh on a direct link between the to nodes. Since Node2 was down the shutdown command never reached its destination. My Questions are: Why did the alive cluster try to stop resources on a cluster node that is considered as dead? Why did STONITH try to shut down a node that is considered down? ( for safety reasons I think ) Shouldn't the resources just be started on the alive node without any further action? Did I miss something in the default behaviour of heartbeat? Maybe a timeout? Would a hardware STONITH device solve such problems in the future? These entries as shown above fill the log from the time the node was found down until this morning I reached my Workstation.
