Hello,
Now that I actually got the hardware und things up and running...

I'm not sure if it's a bug per se, since it works on one half, but not the
other...
First of, I have 2 nodes, and 2 HA controlled filesystems, data-a and
data-b respectively. There is a sub-directory "guests" in both and that in
turn holds an "etc" and a "vservers" one, it should be obvious what they
are. :-p
If I do a "vserver /data-a/guests/etc/engtest04 start" with data-a mounted
on node A, all is fine. On node A /etc/vservers is a symlink
to /data-a/guests/etc/, so that for normal operations (both nodes
up) things work out of the box w/o having to supply the path.
On node B it's obviously pointing to /data-b/...
However if I fail things over onto node B, this happens:
---
borg00b:~# vserver /data-a/guests/etc/engtest04 start
save_ctxinfo: symlink("/data-a/guests/etc/engtest04","/etc/vservers/.defaults/run.rev/10001"): No such file or directory
----
Which is a blatant lie, as /etc/vservers/.defaults/run.rev/ exists very
much and so does of course /data-a/guests/etc/engtest04.
Any idea what is going on here?
Am I really doomed to rsync the whole configs back and forth all the time?
Anybody with success stories for split vserver configs and vdirbases?
For completeness sake, a ls of that config directory, nothing fancy going
on really:
---
borg00a:~# ls -la /data-a/guests/etc/engtest04/
total 36
