Thumbs down Redhat cluster malfunctioning


Hi experts,

I am new to this forum, the reason why i am here now is because of a production server cluster related issue that makes me commpletly disturbed.I am new to Redhat cluster as well.

This is a 2 node cluster,Operating system installed on these node is RHEL 5.3.

The system was running fine until last week, well things changed all of a sudden by making one of the node(node2) in 2 node cluster offline.

All the cluster related services were hung and the server was in a state not to reboot.I had to kill rgmmanager service to reboot the server, however the system rebooted and came up in cluster mode which made the other node (node1) off-line.

All that i understood from this was the cluster was unable to keep both the nodes on-line simultaneously.The same happened when i rebooted the node1,which killed the node2 upon its reboot.

I have now kept the node2 down in order to run the production application installed in this server.

Looking forward to your valuable reply as this is a really concerned issue for me which is in production environment.

Logs from node1 when the node2 was booted into cluster is pasted here for your ready reference.

If this is a production issue then why haven't you raised a ticket with Red Hat support? .. they are the experts on this technology. Personally I wouldn't be running production without support unless I really knew what I was doing.

Hi Guys,

This issue has been resolved !!! The culprit was "acpid" (power management)daemon that is not supposed to be running in cluster which caused the cluster nodes to mal-function. cluster started working perfect after the acpid daemon stopped in the startup.

Many thanks for your great tries and helps.

Rgrds,
Sree
