cibadmin not working...

Hi there,

I've been running with a v1 config fine for a while and now have v2 on
the test bed.

So far its working ok with respect to failovers but I've hit a problem
with administering it.

# cibadmin -Q
Signon to CIB failed: connection failed
Init failed, could not perform requested operations

Running cibadmin under strace, it seems to be looking for a file:
/var/run/heartbeat/crm/cib_rw

which doesn't exist...

I'm unsure what this means as the failover component of the cluster is
working fine. I've spent a fair bit of time going through the
documentation but following link after link I found myself going in
circles :(

Please advise.

Thanks!

Interesting - exists for me, and those files are all local sockets.
I presume this is used to communicate with the various heartbeat
components. Can you find them anywhere else on your system?

Do you have "crm on" or similar in your ha.cf? It's possible to use
heartbeat 2 without the CRM, in which case it works like v1.

# ls /var/run/heartbeat/crm/ -la
total 8
drwxr-x--- 2 hacluster haclient 4096 2008-07-01 17:38 .
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 2008-07-01 17:37 ..

Just covering the basics, but you did add "crm yes" to ha.cf on all
your nodes right?
Have you also seen http://linux-ha.org/v2 and
http://linux-ha.org/GettingStartedV2 ?

I'd been working with several machines on the bench... and was certain
I'd set crm yes on this particular pair...

Oh you bet. I've been through almost all of that site. I feel like a
web-spider. And I still feel very murky about it, its pretty opaque
stuff; looking at the xml files feels like hitting my head on a wall of
text.

Is there any good way to 'look' at xml without getting dizzy?
