A question about SuSE

Hi,

Maik Lehradt has been having with heartbeat. It appears to be related to=
a
SuSE behavior.

I rely on running "resource-script-name status" to tell me if we own a
resource. He has observed that /etc/rc.d/init.d/apache status never retu=
rns
"running"

What is SuSE supposed to do with the "status" requests to their scripts?

Thanks!

Arg...

I have to admit that I was using the script coming from SuSE - which
never
answers "running". Shame on me, I=B4m sorry...

An excerpt from /sbin/init.d/apache follows:

status)
echo -n "Checking for service httpd: "
checkproc /usr/sbin/httpd && echo OK || echo No process
;;

Hope this helps.

Hi Folks,

Maik Lehradt had had a problem with heartbeat not being completely SuSE
compatible when it came to interfacing with external scripts.

Yep. The code in the CVS repository now recognizes "OK" as a valid
"I own the resource" response. It also gives OK in it's output when you do
a "heartbeat status" request, and it's up, and No process when it's down. It
continues to give running and stopped in these same outputs :-)

This should fix Maik's problem.

Thanks Volker,
