I tried Dejan's suggestion but I received the same result. Chun have you had the cluster working and stonith _not_ complaining for a few days and _then_ it started to complain about the 256 code? Or maybe you are just now seeing that stonith is giving this message?
I believe the problem may be how stonith is interpreting the ipmi scripts return value. One thing I have seen in my googling is that there are not many examples of people using stonith and ipmi at least not in the non crm (version 1) way. Can anyone reading this post acknowledge that they are using it and offer any suggestions. In case it matters (because it might) I am running on CentOS 5.1 (fully patched as of last week) on x86_64 system. thanks and regards, Doug On Fri, Feb 22, 2008 at 8:47 AM, Chun Tian (binghe) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, there > > > > I have tested stonith from the command line and was able to reset the > > target PC.
