B.3.5. Testing the Resource Configuration
B.3.5. Testing the Resource Configuration In the cluster status display shown in Section B.3.4, "Creating the Resources and Resource Groups with the pcs Command" , all of the resources are running on node z1.example.com . You can test whether the resource group fails over to node z2.example.com by using the following procedure to put the first node in standby mode, after which the node will no longer be able to host resources. The following command puts node z1.example.com in standby mode. After putting node z1 in standby mode, check the cluster status. Note that the resources should now all be running on z2 . The web site at the defined IP address should still display, without interruption. To remove z1 from standby mode, enter the following command. Note Removing a node from standby mode does not in itself cause the resources to fail back over to that node. For information on controlling which node resources can run on, see the chapter on configuring cluster resources in the Red Hat High Availability Add-On Reference .
