[ClusterLabs] Antw: About globally unique resource instances distribution per node

[Ulrich Windl]

Hi!

I would expect if you set the cpu utilization per primitive (used in clone) to
one and set the cpu capacity per node to the correct number that no node has
more primitives than the cpu number allows and that primitives are distributed
among all available nodes. Isn't that true in your case?

What exactly does not work in your opinion?

Regards,
Ulrich
