I don't have stonith, in fact I don't even have redundant paths (geographically apart nodes). So a custom plugin is the only way? I will look into "meatware" stonith anyway. Thanks, pushkar

This may not be the most elegant solution, but you could do this with the "meatware" stonith device which does exactly this; someone has to manually confirm that the other machine is really and truly dead before a failover will happen. This would be easy to set up if you are already using stonith, and a non-trivial learning curve otherwise. --Greg _______________________________________________ Linux-HA mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha See also: http://linux-ha.org/ReportingProblems
