Abstract

MSGCPFBB17 CHGCRG CAN NOT SWITCH TO BACKUP BECAUSE CLUSTER IS
PARTITIONED.

Error Description

CHGCRG fails because the CRG is in a false partition. The      
primary had crashed, causing a partition. The backup node was  
ended, then re-started and change cluster node status called to
change the primary to failed. The CHGCRG to make the backup the
new primary fails with CPFBB17, cluster is partitioned.        
                                                               
The problem is when the backup node joined, since it was the    
first node in the cluster, it only created an ack index entry  
for work thread 1, even thogh both work threads are created.    
Change cluster node status fails because it can't change the    
index entry for work thread 2.                                  

Problem Summary

Before the CHGCRG, a change cluster node status from partition  
to fail was done. The CRG node status for the partitioned node  
was not changed to fail                                        

Problem Conclusion

The CRG code was changed to correctly handle the situation.
