From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.12) Gecko/20080208 Fedora/2.0.0.12-1.fc8 Firefox/2.0.0.12 Description of problem: system-config-cluster-1.0.51-2.0.el4_6.1 looks for /usr/sbin/cman_tool which doesn't exist with cman-1.0.17-0.el4_6.3. I have tested the latest builds from brewroot and get the same result: cman-1.0.17-0.el4_6.5 system-config-cluster-1.0.51-2.0.el4_6.1 Appears that cman package does not create the required symlink that is needed to be compatible with system-config-cluster(RHEL5 does not require symlink since default location is in /usr/sbin/cman_tool) Here is a related BZ on RHEL5 issue: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=233621 --sbradley Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): cman-1.0.17-0.el4_6.5 system-config-cluster-1.0.51-2.0.el4_6.1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Steps to reproduce: 1. Configure cluster.conf 2. Start cluster services (ccsd, cman) 3. Open system-config-cluster and click on Management tab Actual Results: Error message stating "Node information is temporarily unavailable. Here is the error message: A problem was encountered when attempting to get information about the nodes in the cluster: /bin/bash: /usr/sbin/cman_tool: No such file or directory" Expected Results: Management interface available since cluster is started and member is joined Additional info: Workaround: # ln -s /sbin/cman_tool /usr/sbin/cman_tool Additional info: In /usr/share/cluster/CommandHandler.py, /usr/sbin/cman_tool appears on the following lines: 78, 82, 216, 220, 239, 243, 284, 288, 313, 317, 479, 485
The issue appears to be related to the change in RHEL5. I believe the system-config-cluster package was based on the RHEL5 system-config-cluster which uses the path /usr/sbin/cman_tool instead of RHEL4 location of /sbin/cman_tool. The package system-config-cluster-1.0.45 uses the correct RHEL4 path /sbin/cman_tool. I believe a symlink is needed on package install. $ ln -s /sbin/cman_tool /usr/sbin/cman_tool
This system-config-cluster version seems not compatible with RHEL4, the "Cluster Managemnt" tab doesn't work as expected: Name and Status columns on the Members section show incorrect values. From /usr/share/system-config-cluster/CommandHandler.py it seems that NodeData instances aren't initialized in the right way (at least for DLM clusters). system-config-cluster-1.0.51-2.0 + bz398291 fix works fine for us.
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release. Product Management has requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed products. This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update release.
I can confirm that this bug exists. The severity should be increased, because it makes system-config-cluster unusable (without the symlink workaround). So much for release QA, hey folks!
