What are you using pacemaker for on the compute nodes? I have not done
that personally, but my impression is that sometimes people do that in
order to have virtual machines restarted somewhere else should the
compute node go down outside of a maintenance window (ie. "instance
high availability"). Is that your use case? If so, I would imagine
there is some kind of clean up procedure to put the compute node back
into use when pacemaker thinks it has failed. Did you use some kind of
openstack distribution or follow a particular installation document to
enable this pacemaker setup?
It sounds like everything is working as expected (if my guess is
right) and you just need the right steps to bring the node back into
the cluster.
Thanks,
Curtis.
