RH 5 cluster fence problem on Vitual box

I created 3 test machine and made them into cluster.
On Virtual
"Virtual Machine Manager 0.9.0"
Machines them selves are CentOS 5.11.

Code:



<cluster name="mycluster" config_version="3">

  <clusternodes>

    <clusternode name="one" nodeid="1">

        <fence>

        </fence>

    </clusternode>

    <clusternode name="two" nodeid="2">

        <fence>

        </fence>

    </clusternode>

    <clusternode name="three" nodeid="3">

        <fence>

        </fence>

    </clusternode>

  </clusternodes>

  <fencedevices>

  </fencedevices>

  <rm>

  </rm>

</cluster>

When I start cman service. I see get this:

Code:

[root@one ~]# time service cman restart

Stopping cluster: 

  Stopping fencing... done

  Stopping cman... done

  Stopping ccsd... done

  Unmounting configfs... done

                                                          [  OK  ]

Starting cluster:

Thank you.

well if you ARE using RH5
the redhat os that came out in 1997
you WILL have a problem

RH5 ( Hurricane) is from 1997 ( 1 December 1997)
it is 18 years OLD
and has been unsupported for over a decade

I have to test thing in RH 5 environment. No choice there.
I remember I create similar cluster last year and did testing, But I don't have that confg
saved. I wonder if dummy ACP fence would work.

This issue is resolved. I used luci web interface to create cluster. It worked.
Resulting cluster.conf file looks like this.

Code:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<cluster alias="TEA" config_version="1" name="TEA">

        <fence_daemon post_fail_delay="0" post_join_delay="3"/>

        <clusternodes>

                <clusternode name="three" nodeid="1" votes="1"/>

                <clusternode name="two" nodeid="2" votes="1"/>

                <clusternode name="one" nodeid="3" votes="1"/>

        </clusternodes>

        <cman/>

        <fencedevices/>

        <rm/>

</cluster>
