Hi, consider using a 3rd system as a Q disk. Also, you can use iscsi from that node as a SBD device, so you will have proper fencing .If you don't have a hardware watchdog device, you can use softdog kernel module for that. Best Regards,Strahil Nikolov On Wed, Jul 21, 2021 at 1:45, Digimer

Greetings, Is it possible to configure a two node cluster (pacemaker 2.0) without fencing and avoid split brain? I was hoping there was a way to use a 3rd node's ip address, like from a network switch, as a tie breaker to provide quorum. A simple successful ping would do it. I realize that

I think Ulrich was ment the "dirty" buffers like the ones described at  https://www.suse.com/support/kb/doc/?id=17857  Based on my experience, you should lower the background dirty tunable as low as possible (let's say 500-600MB) and increase the other tunable at least the double. Keep in

Thanks Ulrich ! Could you explain me what to do about the tuning of the kernel to limit the amount of dirty buffers ? Br, Florent Classification : Internal -Message d'origine- De : Users De la part de Ulrich Windl Envoyé : mardi 20 juillet 2021 12:02 À : users@clusterlabs.org Objet

Hi! In the commands traced, no command (that is the monitor) too more than 3 seconds, so that either is *not* the timeout, or pacemaker got significantly delayed. One reason I could imagine is a "read stall". For example you could trigger such if you rapidly fill your block cache with dirty
