[ClusterLabs] Antw: Re: Antw: [EXT] preventing fencing op on resource stop failure

[Ulrich Windl]

Hello,

in general you should find out _why_ the stop operation fails and then fix
it.
Obviously with "on-fail=block" your resource in no longer highly available.

If all your resources are failing on stop you have a major problem.
You can put the cluster in maintenance mode, but then you do not have any HA.
So what are you using pacemaker for?

Regards,
Ulrich
