Yes. i've notice, that my "tickle-patch" failed to apply. i've excluded if from
script before sending to list.

Issues i've found so far (nothing critical though):
1. FreeBSD init-scripts are not lsb compatible, they make pacemaker crazy upon
failure :) (not a big problem as can use provided ocf resource agents/write own)
2. It's better to have bash as default shell (really :) )
3. corosync based cluster requires /dev/shm ("ln -s /tmp /dev/shm" in
/etc/rc.local rocks ) (i guess it's not related to this list, just a note)
4. heartbeat initscript (as well as ldirectord init script) breaks freebsd
conventions and ignores heartbeat_enable (ldirectord_enable) option in rc.conf
(to fix: update script, set local_startup="" etc)
5. pacemaker-controlled resources should not be autostarted by OS, from the
other hand FreeBSD initscripts refuse "start" command if not enabled in rc.conf
(e.g.: memcache_enable="yes"). basically same issue as (1)
6. I get a lot of errors like:
/var/log/messages:Nov 23 19:45:30 alice heartbeat: [1023]: ERROR: glib:
mcast_write: Unable to send mcast packet [-1]: Message too long
/var/log/messages:Nov 23 19:45:30 alice heartbeat: [1023]: ERROR: write_child:
write failure on mcast em0.: Message too long
and
/var/log/messages:Nov 23 19:44:52 alice cib: [1083]: WARN: adjust rcvbuf size
to 1048576 failed: No buffer space available
Could be not an issue, as i run freebsd guests on vmware-server and not real
hardware.
As far as i can see, besides mentioned above (and some minor issues which i
can't recall atm) everything works fine, in short: failed node is fenced and
resources are failed over.
