<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Arial;color: #000000;font-size: 10pt;">Hi,<br>
<br>
a client asked me to describe the conditions when Pacemaker uses STONITH to bring the cluster into a known state. The documentation says that this happens when "we cannot establish with certainty a state of some node or resource", but I need some more concrete
explanations. Specifically, he is wondering what happens when<br>
1. a resource, e.g. a virtual ip, fails to often<br>
2. the heartbeats of one of the cluster nodes are not received anymore<br>
3. combinations of these two<br>
<br>
Is there some better definition of the conditions which trigger STONITH?<br>
<br>
Best wishes,<br>
jens<br>
