[Linux-HA] What is the correct way to create the cib.xml?

[Michael Dengler]

Hi,

Every day I get a little closer to a stable cluster ;-)

I'm trying to automate the configuration of a cluster and am having some
unpredictable behavior. I have a script that gets user input for the config
parameters for the cluster, writes that to haresources, runs
haresources2cib.py to create the cib.xml and then replaces the default
values for resource_stickiness with INFINITY and -INFINITY. This is
performed on both nodes.

The odd behavior is that when heartbeat is started on node1 then
node2....node2 starts all of the resources even though node1 is configured
to be the preferred node.

If I start heartbeat on node1 and wait for it to start the resources before
starting heartbeat on node2, the resources stay on node1.

Here is my cib:

Any help is greatly appreciated.
