On another thread () I've been trying to figure out how to get pingd to play
nicely with hb_gui. One of the difficulties of this task is understanding
what kind of information pingd provides. Judging from the examples on the
pingd web page, the possible return values are something like
   defined
   not_defined
   <value>
What do these mean? More importantly what does <value> mean? The first two
cannot be used with the gui because it will not accept the "defined" or
"not_defined" operator without also entering a value. And it seems that if
you enter a value (e.g. " " or "true") in the gui, heartbeat does not like
it.

So then we're left with trying to use <value> for a failover trigger. I'm
trying to figure out how to combine a location constraint with a pingd clone
monitor to get things to failover. Possible on_fail actions are
   ignore
   block
   stop
   restart
   fence
It's a little unclear what these mean in the context of a clone and I'm not
sure which one to use along with a pingd location constraint based on
<value>

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance,

Bill Eaton
