----------------------------------------------

             Summary: Ceph RBD only cluster with KVM does not fence properly
                 Key: CLOUDSTACK-8628
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-8628
             Project: CloudStack
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
            Reporter: Wido den Hollander
            Assignee: Wido den Hollander


When a NFS storage pool is present on a KVM cluster that pool is used for 
writing heartbeats to.

In case of a Ceph (RBD) only cluster such pools are not available and thus the 
KVM hosts do not write any heartbeats.

Should the KVM Agent crash for any reason they will be fenced of directly and 
this will cause a split-brain situation.

Fencing should not happen when no NFS storage pool is present as it is 
dangerous for data consistency. A Instance could be running on two hosts at the 
same time.
