<div style=""><div><div class="Ih2E3d"><br><blockquote type="cite"><div class="gmail_quote"><div><br> <br>one more question , why we need to configure stonith in two node cluster. we can always set no-quorum policy to "suicide" </div>
</div></blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>which works by using stonith</div></div></div></blockquote><div><br>Ok , so this mean if a cluster does not have stonith configured then even if it has no-quorum-policy set to suicide nothing will happen. <br>
