[Pacemaker] Stonith Device APC AP7900

[Rick Cone]

Dejan,

Sorry to confuse. I just assumed a script would be issued or new version,
etc.

I do apologize for this though.  As fate would have it, I did just so happen
see an issue (while testing something else) concerning the AP7900 using
apcmastersnmp, just yesterday.  You may want to let me know if what I'm
doing is non-standard or improper:

I'm using DRBD/Heartbeat/Pacemaker, and my 2 HA systems have dual power
supplies.  On the AP7900 I have 1 of the systems plugged into outlets 1 and
2, and the other system is plugged into outlets 3 and 4.  Both outlets 1 and
2 have the exact same outlet name, and that is the name of system 1 (uname
-n), and outlets 3 and 4 have the exact same outlet name, and that is the
name of system 2 (uname -n):

Outlet 1 name: spserv1m
Outlet 2 name: spserv1m
Outlet 3 name: spserv1s
Outlet 4 name: spserv1s

The AP7900 allows identical outlet names.

What I noticed was (during testing) that a "Heartbeat/Pacemaker" attempt to
stonith system 1, it only shut off Outlet 2, and not both outlets 1 and 2?
I had not seen this before.  I certainly have seen it do both system outlets
in testing, and manually using command line with testing the stonith command
(early on).

I'm not sure if this is problem, or rather an improper or problematic
approach.  I am considering having just 1 outlet having the system name and
using a splitter or extension cord with multiple outlets for each system.

Just for reference, here is my Pacemaker crm stonith configuration piece:

primitive res_stonith stonith:apcmastersnmp \
        params ipaddr="192.1.1.109" port="161" community="sps" \
        op start interval="0" timeout="60s" \
        op monitor interval="60s" timeout="60s" \
        op stop interval="0" timeout="60s"
clone rc_res_stonith res_stonith \
        meta target-role="Started"

Thanks,
Rick

Not sure if I understand your question. The only difference would
be that the warning message is not issued any more.

Thanks,

Dejan
