Yes, that does make sense.

Yes, this is becoming more visible.
The problem I have now is that I only have one nic for the communications, the
other being used for something else.
So I will press forward to do this.

Okidoki.
Not being an expert and having to grow into the HA stuff very quickly, I
basically am happy the stuff is working at all.

Actually it was hand written by myself, with a lot of help from google.
Not to much copy&paste, but a lot of inspiration.
Also sometimes a cib, after it has been verified would have changes in there.
If I removed them the verifier would complain, so I left the stuff in.
And yes, the file does have some history, like 1.5 years old and used with
different use-cases. So some stuff might have crept in.

Ok, thanks for that.
I had already started looking into the discard-secondary stuff.
I hardly see any examples using it and the exact usage is not to clear for me.

You are totally correct.
For the task I am working on, we basically need one config which is then used
on multiple setups where only the installation specific values are changed
(hostnames, ips, and some other things).
So for us there is either a single-node setup or a dual-node setup (both only
differ in the config specifics).
It is required that the system be set up at once with one DVD and then only
'reconfiguration' is allowed.
Setup wise it was a lot easier for me to just create the config files with
placeholders and then do a copy|sed with the needed data.
And for that text files are much more easier.
Thanks for all your help.
