[Linux-HA] How to tell pacemaker to process a new event during a long-running resource operation

2014-03-14 Thread Maloja01

Hi all,

I have a resource which could in special cases have a very long-running 
start operation.


If I have a new event (like switching a standby node back to online) 
during the already running transition (cluster is still 
S_TRANSITION_ENGINE) I would like the cluster to process them as soon

as possible and not only after the other resource came up.

Is that possible? I tried already batch-limit but I guess this is only 
to make actions parallel in a combined transition, right?


Thanks in advance

 Hi all,
 
 I have a resource which could in special cases have a very long-running
 start operation.

in-flight operations always have to complete before we can process a new 
transition.  The only way we can transition earlier is by killing the in-flight 
process, which results in failure recovery and possibly fencing depending on 
what operation it is.

There's really nothing that can be done to speed this up except work on 
lowering the startup time of that resource.
