Now I'm simply confused.
Do you mean one cachefile shared between the two nodes for this
zpool? How, may I ask, would this work?
The rpool should be in /etc/zfs/zpool.cache.
The shared pool should be in /etc/cluster/zpool.cache (or wherever
you prefer to put it) so it won't come up on system start.
What I don't understand is how the second node is either a) supposed
to share the first nodes cachefile or b) create it's own without
importing the pool.
You say this is the job of the cluster software- does ha-cluster
already handle this with their ZFS modules?
I've asked this question 5 different ways and I either still haven't
gotten an answer- or still don't understand the problem.
Is there a way for a passive node to generate it's _own_ zpool.cache
without importing the file system. If so- how. If not- why is this
unimportant?
I don't run the cluster suite, but I'd be surprised if the software
doesn't copy the cache to the passive node whenever it's updated.
