Description Praveen 2011-10-05 21:57:23 UTC
Description of problem:

RHEL 6 Cluster Administration guide says "Ensure that the interfaces you are passing cluster traffic over are not using any bonding mode other than 0 and are not using VLAN tagging." in "9.1. Cluster Does Not Form section.

http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6-Beta/html-single/Cluster_Administration/index.html

Perhaps, mode1 is the supported bonding mode for cluster and this could be a documentation bug. RHEL-5 Administration guide suggests to use mode1 and it seems to be correct.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 - Cluster Administration Guide

How reproducible:

Have a look at the 9.1. Cluster Does Not Form section of following doc:

http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6-Beta/html-single/Cluster_Administration/index.html

<Snippets>
Ensure that the interfaces you are passing cluster traffic over are not using any bonding mode other than 0 and are not using VLAN tagging. 
</Snippets>

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Take http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6-Beta/html-single/Cluster_Administration/index.html
2. Go to "9.1. Cluster Does Not Form" section.
3. Check the statement "Ensure that the interfaces you are passing cluster traffic over are not using any bonding mode other than 0 and are not using VLAN tagging."
  
Actual results: It says "Ensure that the interfaces you are passing cluster traffic over are not using any bonding mode other than 0 and are not using VLAN tagging."


Expected results: It should be as follows since mode 1 is the supported bonding mode.

"Ensure that the interfaces you are passing cluster traffic over are not using any bonding mode other than 1 and are not using VLAN tagging."

I verified this with Lon Hohberger and made the change in the current working draft. I checked the draft into the svn repository so I'm moving this to MODIFIED. When I build the document I'll move this into ON_QA.
