[Pacemaker] Pacemaker is not able to read new shadow CIB.

[Guillaume Belrose]

Hi Dejan,

I log in Fedora (Gnome) desktop as myself (i.e. guillaume) and then I
switch (in the terminal) to root using su.
In my system, the USER variable is actually set to guillaume and not
root. So this might be where the problem is.

Anyway, I eventually added a symbolic link making /root/.cib to point
to /var/lib/heartbeat/crm and that seems to have make the problem go
away.

I have been experiencing this issue on Fedora16 as well as Centos6.2.
Both distributions were the 32bits versions installed from a live CD.

Cheers,

Guillaume.
