# rpm -qa|egrep 'pacem|heart|glue'
heartbeat-3.0.1-1.el5.x86_64
cluster-glue-libs-1.0.1-1.el5.x86_64
cluster-glue-1.0.1-1.el5.x86_64
pacemaker-1.0.7-2.el5.x86_64

pacemaker-libs-1.0.7-2.el5.x86_64

Please find attached ha-debug logs from following tests:
 1. dc and non-dc from situation where VM was restarted. Currently
active node was DC.
 2. dc_noreboot and non-dc_noreboot from situation where VM was not
restarted (I would like to achieve this). Currently active node was
not the DC.
Both tests used dampen=5s

So it seems like it would be better to have DC assigned into standby
node every time (this would also make failovers faster). But there is
no option how ho force DC election or assign the role. Am I right?
If dampen handling was fixed later, it would be great. I don't think
this is the case, the only relevant commit seems to be:
http://hg.clusterlabs.org/pacemaker/stable-1.0/rev/214f0fc258f2
More verbose description how dampen is supposed to work would also be handy.
