Poison pill given to cluster node10/21/2008 8:06:04 PM

HI all,

i have a strange behavior of my two-node cluster (OES2-Linux, iSCSI-SAN). I
set up a clustered NSS Pool with Volumes. Everything works fine, but if i
trigger a migration from node one to node two during a file copy process on
a Windows XP workstation, the current active node gets a poison pill and is
"killed". The other node is still active and runnig. Is this working as
designed or do i have a problem? If so where should i look for the reason??

Thanks in advance

Alex

Not really as designed. Poison pills happen if one node doesnot answer
timely to th heartbeat. As you describe it happens during high load (copy).
I would look for communication problems, harddisk driver problems (is the
iSCSI device on a seperate box or one of the nodes?).
False Poison Pills may also happen due to 2 node Clusters. For 3 and more
Nodes it is easier for the nodes to find out which node is alive.

Could it be helpfull to adjust the timeout settings? (Takt, Toleranz, Master
und Slave Watchdog)?

The iSCSI device resides on a HP MSA 1510i connected via a HP Switch.

Thanks so far.

Might be, but before tuning that you should carefully read the TID 10053882
"NetWare Cluster Services: The Gory details of Heartbeats, Split Brains and
Poison Pills"

See TID 3839149. Set the Tolerance and Slave Watchdog from 8 to 16
seconds each.

Well that's not good. It means during these copy sessions, the heartbeat
is failing to get even one out of the 16 packets it is sendign through
the wire. You might need a lan trace to see what's going on and whether
it's the master or slave node not playing nice.

Is the same lan used for the heartbeat and iSCSI and the workstation
client access?
