Hi all, I just found a whitepaper from XenServer - seem they implement some
kind of self-fencing:

Hi all,
I currently test cman (3.0.7) and corosync 1.2.0 on a debian squeeze box.
Inside my CPG application, The confchg callback is called with 'dead' members:
[debug] cpg member node 3 pid 1132
[debug] cpg member node 3 pid 14640
for example process 1132 does not exists any longer on node 3.

It happens quite often here, but I have no easy way to reproduce it.
Where is that 'IPC' code responsible for removing the process (maybe
I can debug myself)?

we simply use softdog inside the quorum service (to trigger a reboot

I am playing around with corosync/openais and clvmd-openais. So far it

This time I stopped the clvm-openais daemon, which causes a SIGABRT in

the system that way.
Any idea what is wrong?

Hi all,
is it possible to use corosync/openais services in threaded

and dispatch them in another thread (cpg_dispatch).
Does that work at all? Do I need to protect the cpg_handle_t with a
mutex?

We need to install corosync without user interaction, so that solution is even
worse than the previous behavior. Can't we use /dev/urandom instead (AFAIK even

And what is the rationale behind this check:
"if lowest processor identifier of the old ring in the new ring"
it is used in the checkpoint recovery algorithm:

After some, testing, I noticed that I can't reproduce the bug anymore, don't
know if this is good or bad ;-)

Hi all,
I just notice that cpg_leave hangs forever when I stop the corosync daemon. Is
that expected behavior? If so, is it safe to just call cpg_finalize - does that
free all resources?

I can see the difference in the API, but what is exactly the difference - both
are API into the votequorum service?

I think about injecting a message into the CPG when quorum changes. But this

I can find votequorum and testquorum, but where is YKD (what source files)?

Great! I guess you will use votequoru
