Hi Mark,
so what you are asking for is a way to externally mark a node down (and
clean/fenced too), because you have additional out-of-band knowledge?
We don't yet have a way of doing this.
A single HBcomm plugin can't deliver, because heartbeat will try to use
the other channels (as intended; otherwise, redundancy between comm
media would be pointless).
ping nodes need to be shared between all nodes, and don't do what you
want.
ipfail is v1-style, which we no longer actively develop. Also, ipfail
merely determined which side should take the resources, not declare the
other node dead.
You would need to modify the node liveness layer - either heartbeat or
preferably openAIS, as we try to shift active development away from the
heartbeat layer - to accept such async outside notifications.
Regards,
Lars
