Why does my cluster log the message "daemon cpg_join error retrying"?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • My cluster shows all nodes as online but I am unable to start any cluster services like cman or rgmanager
  • When I start cman it hangs at Starting Fencing
  • I see errors like this in the logs:
fenced[3532]: fenced 3.0.12.1 started
dlm_controld[4064]: dlm_controld 3.0.12.1 started
gfs_controld[402]: gfs_controld 3.0.12.1 started
fenced[3532]: cpg_join error retrying
dlm_controld[4064]: daemon cpg_join error retrying
gfs_controld[402]: daemon cpg_join error retrying
