Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Christine Caulfield 2014-06-20 07:53:39 UTC

Description of problem:

The man page for cman contains this sentence: 
"Up to 9 altnames (10 interfaces in total) can be used."

Which is blatantly wrong. if you try to add more than 1 altname (2 interfaces) cman will fail to start with the message "Configuration of more than 2 rings is not supported"


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.5, but it's probably been there since RHEL5 or even earlier!

How reproducible:
every time, 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. man cman

Actual results:
Wrong info

Expected results:
Correct info - only 1 altname is supported

    cman: fix cman.5 man page to indicate only 1 altname is allowed

Comment 4 Justin Payne 2015-03-19 15:50:56 UTC

Verified in cman-3.0.12.1-73.el6:

[root@dash-01 ~]# rpm -q cman
cman-3.0.12.1-73.el6.x86_64

[root@dash-01 ~]# man cman


Only one altname (2 interfaces in total) is valid for each node.
