Linux bond broadcast mode issue

[vanyell]

Hi everyone,

ran into a curious issue while setting up a new cluster (two node). I created two network links
openvswitch bridge vmbr0 as link 0
Linux bond broadcast mode bond0 as link 1 ( only one cable is connected for now )

As I added the 2nd node to the new cluster, not sure why corosync is complaining about that there are no active links. Subsequently, the cluster got stuck. I had to remove the bond interface and configuring a single port direct connection instead to get the cluster back up again. Any insights?

Hi,

corosync can handle multiple connections by itself and does not need a bond. Thus, configuring a direct connection (or ideally multiple) is actually best practice.
