[ClusterLabs] last_man_standing (LMS) and wait_for_all (WFA)

[Faaland, Olaf P.]

Hi,

In votequorum(5), discussing last_man_standing (LMS) and wait_for_all (WFA) with corosync-3.1.8-1.el8.x86_64, it says:


Enabling LMS allows the cluster to dynamically recalculate expected_votes and quorum under specific circumstances. It is essential to enable WFA when using LMS in High Availability clusters.

Why is that essential?

I have many, many clusters, and there will be times when a node is down because we need replacement parts or something similar, and the cluster must be rebooted (e.g. an OS update).

Thanks!
Olaf
