[LinuxFailSafe] startup of resource groups with one node down

Hi,

I'm seeing problems on my failsafe testcluster when trying to run with =
just one node available:

* 2 node cluster with working stonith (apcmastersnmp)
* 2 resource groups, one active on each node by default
* failover / failback works without a hitch, including reset of failed =
node.

So far, so good. Now I'm trying to see what happens when both nodes are =
down, and just one gets powerd on (2nd node power unplugged).

When starting ha - services on the cluster with just one node, I do get =
a stonith reset for the absent node, and the status for the 2nd node =
goes to "down" as expected.

However, I get erros trying to bring the resource groups online:

Resource Group (web) Status =3D Internal Error : Cluster =3D webc : =
Owner =3D  : Error State =3D Node not available (exclusivity).

Resource Group (db) Status =3D Internal Error : Cluster =3D webc : Owner =
=3D  : Error State =3D Node not available (exclusivity).

This definitely isn't as expected - any idea what I'm doing wrong or =
what I have to do to avoid this situation?=20

Thanks, Martin
