I'm curious about something. I'm no expert on either
VMSclusters or the various Linux clustering projects,
so please excuse me if this seems like a stupid
question...
How does VMS clustering get by without STONITH devices
and I/O fencing? Or is clustering so ingrained in the
kernel (and trusted enough) that each node fences itself
off voluntarily when it looses quorum?
Why can't the Linux efforts use a similar method, rather
than STONITH or Fibre Channel fencing?
Later,
Kenn
