 When enabled, this tunable makes ctdb try to keep public IP addresses locked to specific nodes as far as possible. This makes it easier for debugging since you can know that as long as all nodes are healthy public IP X will always be hosted by node Y.

 The cost of using deterministic IP address assignment is that it disables part of the logic where ctdb tries to reduce the number of public IP assignment changes in the cluster. This tunable may increase the number of IP failover/failbacks that are performed on the cluster by a small margin.

     How long should ctdb let an event script run before aborting it and
     marking the node unhealthy.

+    How many events in a row needs to timeout before we flag the node UNHEALTHY.
+    This setting is useful if your scripts can not be written so that they
+    do not hang for benign reasons.
+    </p></div><div class="refsect2" lang="en"><a name="id2841637"></a><h3>EventScriptUnhealthyOnTimeout</h3><p>Default: 0</p><p>
+    This setting can be be used to make ctdb never become UNHEALTHY if your
+    eventscripts keep hanging/timing out.
+    </p></div><div class="refsect2" lang="en"><a name="id2841650"></a><h3>RecoveryGracePeriod</h3><p>Default: 120</p><p>
+    During recoveries, if a node has not caused recovery failures during the
+    last grace period, any records of transgressions that the node has caused
+    recovery failures will be forgiven. This resets the ban-counter back to 
+    zero for that node.
+    </p></div><div class="refsect2" lang="en"><a name="id2841664"></a><h3>RecoveryBanPeriod</h3><p>Default: 300</p><p>
     If a node becomes banned causing repetitive recovery failures. The node will
     eventually become banned from the cluster.
     This controls how long the culprit node will be banned from the cluster
     before it is allowed to try to join the cluster again.
     Don't set to small. A node gets banned for a reason and it is usually due
     to real problems with the node.

-    Once a recovery has completed, no additional recoveries are permitted until this timeout has expired.
-    </p></div><div class="refsect2" lang="en"><a name="id1915227"></a><h3>EnableBans</h3><p>Default: 1</p><p>

-    </p></div><div class="refsect2" lang="en"><a name="id1915240"></a><h3>DeterministicIPs</h3><p>Default: 1</p><p>
-    When enabled, this tunable makes ctdb try to keep public IP addresses locked to specific nodes as far as possible. This makes it easier for debugging since you can know that as long as all nodes are healthy public IP X will always be hosted by node Y. 
-    </p><p>
-    The cost of using deterministic IP address assignment is that it disables part of the logic where ctdb tries to reduce the number of public IP assignment changes in the cluster. This tunable may increase the number of IP failover/failbacks that are performed on the cluster by a small margin.
-    </p></div><div class="refsect2" lang="en"><a name="id1915260"></a><h3>DisableWhenUnhealthy</h3><p>Default: 0</p><p>
-    When set, As soon as a node becomes unhealthy, that node will also automatically become permanently DISABLED. Once a node is DISABLED, the only way to make it participate in the cluster again and host services is by manually enabling the node again using 'ctdb enable'. 
-    </p><p>
-    This disables parts of the resilience and robustness of the cluster and should ONLY be used when the system administrator is actively monitoring the cluster, so that nodes can be enabled again.
-    </p></div><div class="refsect2" lang="en"><a name="id1915279"></a><h3>NoIPFailback</h3><p>Default: 0</p><p>
-    When set to 1, ctdb will not perform failback of IP addresses when a node becomes healthy. Ctdb WILL perform failover of public IP addresses when a node becomes UNHEALTHY, but when the node becomes HEALTHY again, ctdb will not fail the addresses back.

     Use with caution! Normally when a node becomes available to the cluster
-ctdb will try to reassign public IP addresses onto the new node as a way to distribute the workload evenly across the clusternode. Ctdb tries to make sure that all running nodes have approximately the same number of public addresses it hosts.
-    </p><p>
-    When you enable this tunable, CTDB will no longer attempt to rebalance the cluster by failing IP addresses back to the new nodes. An unbalanced cluster will therefore remain unbalanced until there is manual intervention from the administrator. When this parameter is set, you can manually fail public IP addresses over to the new node(s) using the 'ctdb moveip' command.
