10.3. Modifying Quorum Options (Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3 and later)

download PDF
As of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3, you can modify general quorum options for your cluster with the pcs quorum update command. You can modify the quorum.two_node and quorum.expected_votes options on a running system. For all other quorum options, executing this command requires that the cluster be stopped. For information on the quorum options, see the votequorum(5) man page.
The format of the pcs quorum update command is as follows.
pcs quorum update [auto_tie_breaker=[0|1]] [last_man_standing=[0|1]] [last_man_standing_window=[time-in-ms] [wait_for_all=[0|1]]
The following series of commands modifies the wait_for_all quorum option and displays the updated status of the option. Note that the system does not allow you to execute this command while the cluster is running.
[root@node1:~]# pcs quorum update wait_for_all=1
