Yes. hostname (-s, -f) and uname differ in that uname -n just does one syscall (uname), and hostname (typically) does a gethostname(), then a gethostbyname(), the result of the latter heavily influenced by whatever is in your nsswitch, resolv and other .conf, as well as what may be listed in /etc/hosts, and the order of those entries ;) Instead of doing clever guesswork, surely those: > http://www.aviosys.com/ip_power_9258hp.html > > > PS: there are others too in this category of devices: > > > http://www.server-rack-online.com/cw-2h2-c20.html can be configured to use "arbitrary" names? so if your uname -n does contain dots (FQDN), you use that as label in the power switch, and if not, there you are. You just have to get it right then, and the RA does not need to guess. -- : Lars Ellenberg : LINBIT | Your Way to High Availability : DRBD/HA support and consulting http://www.linbit.com DRBD® and LINBIT® are registered trademarks of LINBIT, Austria. _______________________________________________ Pacemaker mailing list Pacemaker@oss.clusterlabs.org http://oss.clusterlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/pacemaker
