[Lustre-discuss] OSS Nodes Fencing issue in HPC

[Wojciech Turek]

You have got already a great advice from Carlos and Kevin. One more point I
would like to add is that quite often people configure their HA software to
send heartbeat over a single network thus creating a single point of
failure and the heartbeat (keep alive) pings are sent over the network that
is used as the main I/O feed. In my experience I found that  it is very
important to have the HA ping to be send at least on two networks or even
better using two different methods of comm like Ethernet and serial.

Regards,

Wojciech
