+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #315631 +++ Description of problem: Problems occur when attemping the 'restart cluster' operation. From what I've seen, different things will happen depending on what state the cluster is in before the restart is executed. Scenario 1: Start with the cluster stopped Then, after attempting the 'restart' with conga, the cluster will usually start properly on all nodes, sometimes it will fail to start the service on one of the nodes in the cluster. Scenario 2: Start with the cluster started but no clvmd or rgmanager Then, after attempting the 'restart' with conga, the cluster will most likey end up with all nodes in the stopped state and appears to not even have tried the start operation, but sometimes it will start on a subset of the cluster. Scenario 3: Start with the cluster started and all services running Then, after attempting the 'restart' with conga, the cluster will either end up completely stopped with out a start attempted, end up in some hung loop due to timing issues, or the restart will appear to work on just a subset of the nodes. I've tried these cmds manually countless times and never seen issues, that is: for i in rgmanager clvmd cman do service $i stop done for i in cman clvmd rgmaneger do service $i start done Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.18-48.el5 cman-2.0.73-1.el5 luci-0.10.0-6.el5 -- Additional comment from rmccabe on 2007-10-02 16:38 EST -- Problems occur because some nodes may be starting while others are still in the process of stopping. According to sdake, this ought to work (it definitely doesn't consistently work presently), but we can easily work around it in conga.
