Lars, That link you provided actually helped a lot. At least now I know I can configure this without a CRM. I do agree that perhaps this would be better with a CRM, but it's not for me to say.
So now I can configure all of this within the ha.cf, good info to have! I still need to figure out if there is a way that I can code something to have the STONITH only work under specific conditions. Any clues? I've thought about adding a resouse BASH script, but if I can't call STONITH from a BASH prompt then it wouldn't work, would it? - Peter On Tue, Aug 3, 2010 at 6:36 PM, Lars Ellenberg <[email protected]>wrote: > On Tue, Aug 03, 2010 at 06:27:17PM -0400, Peter Sylvester wrote: > > Sorry about spamming the list, but I figured it's probably best to ask > more > > specific questions and give a better idea of what it is I'm trying to > > accomplish. > > > > I have 2 node cluster, active/passive.
