Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.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 Jesús Serrano Sánchez-Toscano 2016-12-09 08:59:17 UTC
Document URL: 
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Cluster_Administration/s2-admin-manage-ha-services-operations-cli-CA.html

Section Number and Name: 
9.3.2. Managing HA Services with clusvcadm

Describe the issue: 
The service operation convalesce (flag '-c') is missing in "Table 9.2. Service Operations".

Suggestions for improvement: 
Include this operation so that our documentation describes how to clean the flag [P] in a cluster resource. The clean up of the flag [Z] for frozen services is already described so I think the convalesce option is missing.

Additional information: 
More information about that can be found in the following links:

                         Attempts to start failed, non-critical 
                         resources within a resource group.

Comment 4 Steven J. Levine 2017-01-26 16:03:04 UTC
I have incorporated the review comments and the current RHEL 6.9 draft now includes this information.  It should be on the Portal for RHEL 6.9 GA.

Comment 5 Steven J. Levine 2017-03-22 18:24:05 UTC
The updated Table 9.2 that includes the convalesce option is now on the Portal:
