cluster lock

[Jose Juan]

Hi all,

I have one doubts.
I have two nodes in cluster, the cluster-lock is ok. But, when I power off the two Machines and I power on only one of them, this one don't run cluster service, is necessary force it. Is this the normaly operation?

Tnks in advance.

Hi,

Check /etc/rc.config.d/cmcluster for the following

AUTOSTART_CMCLD=1

With autostart set to 1 the node will attempt to join/form it's cluster. However you do need 100% node attendance to form the cluster in the first place.

Regard,

Hilary

hi,
check your /etc/rc.config.d/cmcluster file.

if you want the cluster to start automatically. set the AUTOSTART_CMCLD to 1 in that file.

So what you are saying is htat when you start only ONE of hte two nodes, i.e. hte ohter node is down/unavailable, then hte cluster does not start automatically??
If so, hten YES this is the default and expected behaviour.
ALL (100%) of the cluster nodes need to be available and attempting to join the cluster within the AUTO_START_TIMEOUT time, default of 10 minutes.
