[Pacemaker] Failing to move around IPaddr2 resource

[Anlu Wang]

I have three servers that I'm trying to create IP failover on with
heartbeat. I have three IPs, one for each machine, and I want an IP to be
assigned to a different machine when it goes down. This is all working
splendidly.

But in addition, I also want an IP to be assigned to a different machine
when either the internal OR external network interface goes down. To do
this, I have a ping resource on each machine that pings the other 2
machines internal and external ips (so 4 IPs total being pinged on each
machine). This is where I'm having problems.

When I take down a network interface manually with ifdown, sometimes it
fails to stop IP resources on the machines. This is what crm_mon outputs:

But I have no idea what the RTNETLINK error is. Googling around seems to
show some issues about Ubuntu wireless drivers, but these interfaces are
all wired. Does anyone have any idea what is going on? I suspect there
might be some sort of weird IP assigning going on, due to the pingd
resource not reporting their scores all at the same time maybe?

When I manually go and cleanup the failed nodes, they get properly assigned
to the nodes that aren't down, so if we can't resolve the underlying issue,
is there a way to automatically attempt to cleanup failed resources a
limited number of times?

My configuration is here, in case there's anything wrong with it.
