I will try to get into the details on monday, when I have access to the cluster 
again.I guess the /var/log/cluster/corosync.log and /etc/corosync/corosync.conf 
are the most interesting.
So far, I have 6 node cluster with separate VLANs for HANA replication, prod 
and backup.Initially, I used pcs to create the corosync.conf with 2 IPs per 
node, token 40000, consensus 48000 and wait_for_all=1.Later I have expanded the 
cluster to 3 links and added qnet to the setup (only after I made it run (token 
29000) ), so I'm ruling it out.I updated the cluster nodes from RHEL 8.1 to 8.2 
, removed the consensus and enabled debug.
As knet is using udp by default, and because the problem is hitting me both in 
udp (default settings) and sctp - the problem is not in the protocol.
I've also enabled pacemaker blackbox, although I doubt that has any effect on 
corosync.
How can I enable trace logs for corosync only ?

Definitively.

Could you please provide a bit more info about your setup 
(config/logs/how many nodes cluster has/...)? Because I've just briefly 
tested two nodes setup with 30 sec token timeout and it was working 
perfectly fine.

As Jehan correctly noted if it would really get to RH devs it would 
probably get to me ;) But before that GSS will take care of checking 
configs/hw/logs/... and they are really good in finding problems with 
setup/hw/...

Nope.

No matter what, if you can send config/logs/... we may try to find out 
what is root of the problem here on ML or you can really try GSS, but as 
Jehan told, it would be nice if you can post result so other people (me 
included) knows what was the main problem.

Thanks and regards,
