[Pacemaker] no actions on lost CIB access

[Radoslaw Garbacz]

Hi,

I have a strange situation, which I would like to ask about, whether it is
a bug, misconfiguration or an intended behavior.

A disconnected node does not detect it is lost, and does not perform any
actions to stop, even though resource agents report errors when monitored,
just the number of processes (of some hanged resource agents) keeps growing.

Seems like pacemaker ignores timeouts when trying to update CIB.

The situation is caused by corosync not detecting lost quorum due to
firewall blocking lo. As far as I checked this prevents corosync from
detecting problems with the cluster, and when lo access is restored
everything should be fine, but shouldn't pacemaker detect lost CIB service
and do something about it? Maybe there is a configuration parameter to
control this?

Technical details:

Below a resource "dbx_ready_nodes" monitor action returns error, but
nothing happens, the resource is not being requested to stop (even though
it should, as can be seen above)

The most common cause of this message is that th

Thanks in advance
