Issues related to the VCS engine

Engine may hang in LEAVING state

When the command hares -online is issued for a parent resource when a child resource faults, and the hares -online command is followed by the command hastop -local on the same node, then the engine transitions to the leaving state and hangs. Workaround: Issue the command hastop -local -force.

Timing issues with AutoStart policy

Consider a case where the service group is offline and engine is not running on node 1. If you restart the engine on node 1 after HAD is killed on node 2 and before the engine is restarted on node 2, then VCS does not initiate the autostart policy of the group.
