Hi, We have a cluster with 6 processors using openais stable version 0.80.3.
For some reason our cluster splits up into two rings. Scenario is: node1(n1) n2 n3 n4 n5 n6 are in the ring. Suddenly the ring splits into two rings: n1 n2 n3 got leave msg from n4 n5 n6 n4 n5 n6 got leave msg from n1 n2 n3 After a few milliseconds the two rings joins again: n1 n2 n3 got join msg from n4 n5 n6 n4 n5 n6 got join msg from n1 n2 n3 The two ring is joined to one ring again: node1(n1) n2 n3 n4 n5 n6 are in the ring. The question is if this is a normal scenario from EVS in the openais implementation? The problem is that the application needs to detect the difference between two kinds of joins: The "normal" join where the two rings/nodes join for the first time and the "abnormal" joins where a ring has split and re-joined (without any nodes being restarted). The first case typically requires only a sync of some nodes (bringing the history up to date). The second case requires a merger, i.e selection of a loosing side and the looser discarding the loosers history.
