6. The quorum server log file on the new quorum server will show a log message like the following
for each cluster that uses the quorum server:
Request for lock /sg/<ClusterName> succeeded. New lock owners: N1, N2
7. To check that the quorum server has been correctly configured and to verify the connectivity
of a node to the quorum server, you can execute the following command from your cluster
nodes as follows:
cmquerycl -q <QSHostName> -n <Node1> -n <Node2> ...
The command will output an error message if the specified nodes cannot communicate with
the quorum server.
CAUTION: Make sure that the old system does not rejoin the network with the old IP address.
NOTE: While the old quorum server is down and the new one is being set up:
• The cmquerycl, cmcheckconf and cmapplyconf commands will not work
• The cmruncl, cmhaltcl, cmrunnode, and cmhaltnode commands will work
• If there is a node or network failure that creates a 50-50 membership split, the quorum server
will not be available as a tie-breaker, and the cluster will fail.
10.7 Troubleshooting Approaches
The following sections offer a few suggestions for troubleshooting by reviewing the state of the
running system and by examining cluster status data, log files, and configuration files. Topics
include:
• Reviewing Package IP Addresses
• Reviewing the System Log File
• Reviewing Configuration Files
• Reviewing the Package Control Script
• Using cmquerycl and cmcheckconf
• Using cmviewcl
• Reviewing the LAN Configuration
10.7.1 Reviewing Package IP Addresses
The ifconfigcommand can be used to examine the LAN configuration. The command, if executed
on ftsys9 after the halting of node ftsys10, shows that the package IP addresses are assigned
to eth1:1 and eth1:2 along with the heartbeat IP address on eth1.
