[Pacemaker] Problems with SBD fencing

Hi,

I am evaluating the SLES HA Extension 11 SP3 product. The cluster  consists
of 2-nodes (active/passive), using SBD stonith resource on a shared SAN
disk. Configuration according to http://www.linux-ha.org/wiki/SBD_Fencing

The SBD daemon is running on both nodes, and the stontih resource (defined
as primitive) is running on one node only.
There is also a monitor operation for the stonith resource (interval=36000,
timeout=20)
I am having some problems getting failover/fencing to work as expected in
the following scenario:
- Node 1 is running the resources that I created (except stonith)
- Node 2 is running the stonith resource
- Disconnect Node 2 from the network by bringing the interface down
- Node 2 status changes to UNCLEAN (offline), but the stonith resource does
not switch over to Node 1 and Node 2 does not reboot as I would expect.
- Checking the logs on Node 1, I notice the following:
 Aug  1 12:00:01 slesha1n1i-u pengine[8915]:  warning: pe_fence_node: Node
slesha1n2i-u will be fenced because the node is no longer part of the

- Finally I kill the corosync process on Node 1 (killall -9 corosync), then
corsoync restarts.
- Checking status. All resources are up and running on Node 1, and the
stonith resource is running on Node 2 again.



I have tested the same scenario several times. Sometimes the fencing
mechaism works as expected, but other times the stonith resource is not
transferred to Node 1 - as described here. So I need some assistance to
overcome this problem....
