[ClusterLabs] VirtualDomain restart caused fencing.

Hello,

I'm not sure how to fix this, but calling 'crm resource restart vm-name' this morning caused an entire node to get fenced, kicking the stool out from under a number of VMs.

Looking at VirtualDomain it looks like the system defaults to a 90s timeout, and if it can't gracefully shutdown the VM with 'virsh shutdown' in 85s, then it calls 'virsh destroy'.  For whatever reason, that's not what happened.

I created a mockup where I moved a test vm to it's own node (in case it gets fenced), then loaded something that would ignore acpi shutdown, then called restart.  This time it worked.  The logs show:

Jun 30 15:32:11  VirtualDomain(vm-testvm)[13047]:    INFO: Issuing graceful shutdown request for domain testvm.
Jun 30 15:32:26  VirtualDomain(vm-testvm)[13047]:    INFO: Issuing forced shutdown (destroy) request for domain testvm.

I don't have the logs from the original failure due to my node not being persistent, but I wonder if anyone else has run into this.

Here is my resource configuration if that reveals the issue:

crm configure primitive vm-testvm2 VirtualDomain params config="/datastore/vm/testvm/testvm.xml" migration_transport=ssh meta allow-migrate=true target-role=Started op monitor timeout=30 interval=30

Oh, one last question:  Can I disable fencing for a specific resource for testing reasons?  I'd love to watch this break without fear of fencing.

Matt
