Hi Michi,
Thank you very much for your prompt reply. Indeed this solved my problem. Some
small changes like starting the server in stand-alone mode as i am on solaris
and it works better, and to figure out how to trigger the update. From node1
csync2 -xv -N node1 just works as i expected.
Maybe I could contribute somehow to the documentation for such a setup, as I
consider it to be a very common when one would use a private network for the
heartbeat in a cluster. Don't really see a way to do that.
Thanks again, really appreciate it.
Vadim
