Yeah, I keep telling my boss that. >> ... split-brain > So, did you have stonith in place then? ;-) I've users instead, they come and tell me the Internet is broken when that sort of thing happens. > The cost of decent fencing hardware is nowadays really small. > And the probability of the power supplies going bad is much > higher than that of PDU/PSU. Interestingly enough, out of approx. 300 computer-years here, the kit from our server vendor had 3 PSU failures recently. On 3 identical machines bought some 4 years ago. (The other failure was a sata backplane.) With 4 hardware failures on 60 servers in 5 years, it's hard to justify decent fencing hardware even if it were free. And net-connected PDUs that can power a full-height server cabinet are actually far from it.
