Hello,

I have a 2-node HACMP up & running normally(let say node A and node B). After unknown changes created by customer, we decided to remove the whole cluster and configure again. Everything will be fine if there was no strange problem like this:

When we run the "Verification & Sync.." from Node B, it states that there is missing entry in some kinds of "<IP Address> <IP label" in the /etc/hosts file of node B. The fact is that we have the /etc/hosts file in place on the 02 nodes already (of course with the IP addresses and corresponding labels). I tried to start the verification from Node A and the error is the same (i.e. there is missing entry in Node B's hosts file only)

I tried to vi the /etc/hosts file to see if there is any hidden character but no use, since I ftp the file from Node A and they are the same. The owner and group owner is still root:system for the file. The corrective action of HACMP (auto adding entry) couldn't help since it created a loop (report missing -> adding entries -> PASS -> verify again -> report missing again -> adding again...->)

Anyone can help me with this?

Thanks much.

Anyone having ideas about this?

Well you can hunt this weird "feature" or just uninstall Power HA (HACMP) and reinstall it and have a nice clean clusterconfig again.
When you still want the feturehunt thingy the only thing i can recommend is look close to something like cldump or a clustersnapshot data and compare everything to your environment...

Cheers seth

Thanks Seth, the problem has gone without any good reason :|

Sound like a standard "feature" of HACMP (You just can't kill the bugs wis constant renaming of a product). I hope for you it stays this way ;-)

Cheers seth

Hi,

have you checked the /usr/sbin/es/cluster/etc/clhosts file (for clinfo comunication) and
the /usr/sbin/es/cluster/etc/rhosts file (for verification & synchronization between two nodes) ??
