Hi,

I'm using Redhat Cluster Suite 7with watchdog timer based fence agent. I
understand this is a really bad setup but this is what the end-user wants.

ATB => auto_tie_breaker

"When the auto_tie_breaker is used in even-number member clusters, then the
failure of the partition containing the auto_tie_breaker_node (by default
the node with lowest ID) will cause other partition to become inquorate and
it will self-fence. In 2-node clusters with auto_tie_breaker this means
that failure of node favoured by auto_tie_breaker_node (typically nodeid 1)
will result in reboot of other node (typically nodeid 2) that detects the
inquorate state. If this is undesirable then corosync-qdevice can be used
instead of the auto_tie_breaker to provide additional vote to quorum making
behaviour closer to odd-number member clusters."

Thanks
