Cluster operations experience long delay immediately after another node leaves cluster in RHEL 5

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Cluster operations experience long delay immediately after another node leaves cluster in RHEL 5
  • The problem occurs when the service is relocated away from a cluster node. On the cluster node that hosts the cluster service, the cluster software is stopped:
    # service rgmanager stop; sleep 5; service cman stop
    

    On the remaining node, the service is started successfully.  However, when then trying to disable this service or stop rgmanager itself, there is again a long delay before the operation completes.

Environment
