Hello,<br>
<br>
I have 3 node setup using CentOS 5.5 and OCFS2 1.4. Disks from two
nodes (node1 and node2) are connected using DRBD (primary/primary mode)
and this shared storage should be accessable from all three nodes.
Because of that, node1 has the iSCSI target setup on top the /dev/drbd1
device. I was also able to format the shared storage using OCFS2.<br>
<br>
When I mount OCFS2 disk on node1 and node2 using the /dev/drbd1
device, they work well. After mounting it on node3 using the imported
iSCSI /dev/sda device, system gets into trouble. It looks like node3
can't join cluster and it's heathbeating in slot taken by node1 or
node2.<br>
<br>
Similarly, when I import iSCSI target from node1 on node2, then node2
and node3 work well, while mounting /dev/drbd1 on node1 makes
hearthbeating problem. When that happens, on node2 and node3 I get
following line in /var/log/messages:<br>
<i> node3 kernel: ocfs2_dlm: Nodes in domain
("72F96BF71A3A41B6BD5540CE773A9E9D"): 2 3</i><br>
while node1 reports:<br>
<i> node1 kernel: ocfs2_dlm: Nodes in domain
("72F96BF71A3A41B6BD5540CE773A9E9D"): 1<br>
...<br>
node1 kernel: (o2hb-72F96BF71A,2456,0):o2hb_do_disk_heartbeat:777
ERROR: Device "drbd1": another node is heartbeating in our slot!</i><br>
<br>
I tried to setup iSCSI initiator on node1, so it can connect to own
iSCSI target, but it doesn't work.<br>
<br>
Does anyone know why is this happening and how can I solve the
problem? I think everything worked well when I used GNBD to export DRBD
device to third node, but I would like to do it without RHCS.<br>
<br>
Cluster configuration file (/etc/ocfs2/cluster.conf):<br>
