[Evms-cluster] Access to EVMS volumes with CSM with only one node alive

[Maximilian W. <ma...@rf...>]

Hi!

I've set up a Xen-Cluster with two nodes sharing some SAN storage.

I decided to use EVMS to cut on of the LUNs into pieces for the DomU
storage. So I put a CSM on the LUN devices, and some LVM stuff in
there.

If I now reboot/poweroff one node for any reason, the /dev/evms/...
devices managent by CSM on the running node disappear, which is quite
bad as I cannot start Xen DomUs when one node failed.

Is this intentional or can I do anything about that?

I can't imagine any reason for this behaviour and would realy like to
be able to use the volumes if only one node is alive.

Ciao
Max
