Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 175033
clustat reports Resource Group information unavailable after N gfs file systems are mounted
Last modified: 2009-04-16 16:18:55 EDT
Description of problem: After mounting somewhere between 15 and 23 GFS file systems, clustat reports Resource Group informatation unavailable Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rgmanager-1.9.38-0 How reproducible: Every time when a certain number of GFS file systems are mounted. On one cluster that number is 15. On another cluster that number is 23. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run clustat and verify services are shown 2. Mount 23 GFS file systems 3. Run clustat and see "Reource Group information is unavailable" Actual results: Cluster services not shown Expected results: Cluster services shown Additional info:
Was rgmanager still running, or did it crash?
It was still running.
Could this bug be related to bug #171153? We have multiple applications that run on every node in the cluster that all run clustat at various times. Can we get the fix you just referred to for bug #171153?

Setting component to magma-plugins
Patches in CVS, head, stable, rhel4 -- setting to modified.
The fix doesn't work; you can't read >1page from /proc at a time. However, there's an issue with issuing multiple reads to /proc/cluster/services, which I've set as a dependency to this bugzilla. I can make the correct fix for magma-plugins, but there's no guarantee it will work in all cases until #175372 is fixed.

This patch fixed the problem. Thanks!
The rgmanager-1.9.43-0 and magma-plugins-1.0.3-0.3bz175033 seem to be causing other problems. With a cluster configured for four nodes, if I bring up only three of the four nodes, the cluster does not get created even though there is quorum. All three nodes start fenced but never return.
