Hello,

I'm trying to get stonith via SBD working on Debian Squeeze.  All of the
components seem to be there, and I've very carefully followed the guide at
http://www.linux-ha.org/wiki/SBD_Fencing . Where things seem to fall down is
that there's nothing at all in corosync's init script to start SBD, and
according to the SBD page it should be started by the cluster's init script.
 What I end up with is Pacemaker showing that my stonith-SBD primitive is
alive and running, when in reality there is no sbd process on any node at
all.

Has anybody else encountered this and solved it already?  I like the idea of
corosync's script handling it so the cluster stack doesn't even start if the
SBD device is unavailable.  However, since the debian init script doesn't
know of SBD, is it safe to simply start it manually on boot?  If so, I
suppose it needs an init script rather than rc.local, so it gets started
before corosync?

Thanks,
Mark
