Hello list,

I've really not found hardly any info on configuring stonith with
heartbeat.

The config file seems to suggest there are 2 ways of doing it, either
with the stonith or the stonith_host directives. I only have 1 stonith
device, so I thought I would use this:

stonith apcmaster /etc/stonith.rc

>From the logs it looks like it is being checked by the heartbeat
processes.

Jul 19 13:35:52 database1 heartbeat[2699]: Successful login to APC
MasterSwitch.

But I don't get a status back or anything.

I want to test this now, but I don't know under what conditions
heartbeat will try and kill the other node. If I just stop heartbeat
it doesn't happen. Or, theres nothing in the logs to suggest that it
was tried.

Also, what arguments are given to stonith when a node needs to go
down? Is it just the hostname? In which case I need to label my power
outlets correctly, to match the hostnames given by the node
directives.

Thanks for any insight!

Matt

doing it. Twice to learn how to do it. And a third time to figure
out whether you like it or not.
