Yes. This is when the problem occurs (eg adding a location to a resource)

1.1.7 packaged by Debian, and possibly patched by Debian. I'll follow this up. I just noticed that some of my nodes are running corosync (again, Debian packages) 1.4.4-2 and others are running 1.4.2-3. I wonder if there is something in that...

I just built a 5 node cluster on virtual machines with my problematic configuration (with all resources changed to Dummy) and while there is high CPU load on a change, I don't know that it's as bad as my actual cluster, especially as all 5 virtual machines are running on the one physical machine (which is the same physical machine that feels the load problem the worst). There are no "Failed application of an update diff" messages either.

Thanks

James
