# WORKAROUND:

A way to workaround this issue is the following... in a 3 node cluster you can do this:

# node01

create a file /etc/fence_scsi.key containing: 62ed0000

# node02

create a file /etc/fence_scsi.key containing: 62ed0001

# node03

create a file /etc/fence_scsi.key containing: 62ed0002

In all 3 nodes create a file /etc/tmpfiles.d/fence_scsi.conf containing:

L /var/run/cluster/fence_scsi.key - - - - /etc/fence_scsi.key

This will make systemd to create a symlink /var/run/cluster/fence_scsi.key pointing to your /etc/fence_scsi.key file and will allow fence_scsi agent to use that file to do its SCSI persistent reservations.

After creating those files reboot all the nodes and check if the file got created after boot:

rafaeldtinoco@clubionic01:~$ ls /var/run/cluster/fence_scsi.key
/var/run/cluster/fence_scsi.key

rafaeldtinoco@clubionic01:~$ cat /var/run/cluster/fence_scsi.key
62ed0000
