Resources do not start in a RHEL 7 or later High Availability cluster when starting the cluster with one or more nodes is missing
Issue
- If a node is down, resources do not start on node up on pcs cluster start
- When I start one node in the cluster while the other is down for maintenance,
pcs status
shows that missing node as "unclean" and the node that is up won't gain quorum or manage resources. - If I start all nodes in the cluster except one, those nodes all show 'partition WITHOUT quorum' in
pcs status
and don't start managing resources. - My cluster resources are all Stopped when I boot a single node by itself
Environment
- Red Hat Entreprise Linux (RHEL) 7 or later with the High Availability Add On
- One or more nodes in the cluster has not started/joined the cluster
- One of the following is present in the
quorum
section of/etc/corosync/corosync.conf
wait_for_all: 1
ortwo_node: 1
- andwait_for_all
is left unspecified.
