Hello,

 

We have a multi-state resource called callp running in a 2 node cluster
(node A and node B).  

 

In a customer deployment, we had node A in which callp was running as a
master and in node B it was running as a slave.  

 

The following happened:

1 - Node B was placed in standby mode.  After this, callp (the
multi-state resource), was continuing to run as master on node A as
expected.  

2 - Next, node B was placed in online mode.  

3 - PROBLEM -> The cluster decided to move the master callp to node B by
demoting callp on node A and trying to promote it on node B.  This is an
undesirable operation.  The default stickiness level in our cluster is
set to 99 to prevent such movement of resources.   I have confirmed that
callp is using the default stickiness of 99.

 

Therefore, the cluster should not move callp when another node is
brought online due to the stickiness being 99.  I am not able to
reproduce the problem because it happens very rarely but I need to know
of a way to prevent this from happening again for sure.

 

I would appreciate any help.
