Abstract

The purpose of this document is to provide a start-to-finish guide to
building an example active/passive cluster with Pacemaker and show how it
can be converted to an active/active one. The example cluster will use:

  1.  Fedora 13 as the host operating system

  2.  Corosync to provide messaging and membership services,

  3.  Pacemaker to perform resource management,

  4.  DRBD as a cost-effective alternative to shared storage,

  5.  GFS2 as the cluster filesystem (in active/active mode)

  6.  The crm shell for displaying the configuration and making changes

Given the graphical nature of the Fedora install process, a number of
screenshots are included. However the guide is primarily composed of
commands, the reasons for executing them and their expected outputs.

1.Â Document Conventions
------------------------

1.1. Typographic Conventions

1.2. Pull-quote Conventions

1.3. Notes and Warnings

This manual uses several conventions to highlight certain words and
phrases and draw attention to specific pieces of information. In PDF and
paper editions, this manual uses typefaces drawn from the Liberation
Fonts set. The Liberation Fonts set is also used in HTML editions if the
set is installed on your system. If not, alternative but equivalent
typefaces are displayed. Note: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and later
includes the Liberation Fonts set by default.


1.1.Â Typographic Conventions

Four typographic conventions are used to call attention to specific words
and phrases. These conventions, and the circumstances they apply to, are
as follows. Mono-spaced Bold Used to highlight system input, including
shell commands, file names and paths. Also used to highlight keycaps and
key combinations. For example:

  To see the contents of the file my_next_bestselling_novel in your
  current working directory, enter the cat my_next_bestselling_novel
  command at the shell prompt and press Enter to execute the command.

The above includes a file name, a shell command and a keycap, all
presented in mono-spaced bold and all distinguishable thanks to context.
Key combinations can be distinguished from keycaps by the hyphen
connecting each part of a key combination. For example:

  Press Enter to execute the command. Press Ctrl+Alt+F1 to switch to
  the first virtual terminal. Press Ctrl+Alt+F7 to return to your
  X-Windows session.

The first paragraph highlights the particular keycap to press. The second
highlights two key combinations (each a set of three keycaps with each
set pressed simultaneously). If source code is discussed, class names,
methods, functions, variable names and returned values mentioned within a
paragraph will be presented as above, in mono-spaced bold. For example:

  File-related classes include filesystem for file systems, file for
  files, and dir for directories. Each class has its own associated set
  of permissions.

Proportional Bold This denotes words or phrases encountered on a system,
including application names; dialog box text; labeled buttons; check-box
and radio button labels; menu titles and sub-menu titles. For example:

  Choose System â Preferences â Mouse from the main menu bar to
  launch Mouse Preferences. In the Buttons tab, click the Left-handed
  mouse check box and click Close to switch the primary mouse button
  from the left to the right (making the mouse suitable for use in the
  left hand). To insert a special character into a gedit file, choose
  Applications â Accessories â Character Map from the main menu
  bar. Next, choose Search â Findâ¦ from the Character Map menu bar,
  type the name of the character in the Search field and click Next.
  The character you sought will be highlighted in the Character Table.
  Double-click this highlighted character to place it in the Text to
  copy field and then click the Copy button. Now switch back to your
  document and choose Edit â Paste from the gedit menu bar.

The above text includes application names; system-wide menu names and
items; application-specific menu names; and buttons and text found within
a GUI interface, all presented in proportional bold and all
distinguishable by context. Mono-spaced Bold Italic or Proportional Bold
Italic Whether mono-spaced bold or proportional bold, the addition of
italics indicates replaceable or variable text. Italics denotes text you
do not input literally or displayed text that changes depending on
circumstance. For example:

  To connect to a remote machine using ssh, type ssh username@domain.name
  at a shell prompt. If the remote machine is example.com and your
  username on that machine is john, type ssh john@example.com. The
  mount -o remount file-system command remounts the named file system.
  For example, to remount the /home file system, the command is mount
  -o remount /home. To see the version of a currently installed
  package, use the rpm -q package command. It will return a result as
  follows: package-version-release.

Note the words in bold italics above â username, domain.name,
file-system, package, version and release. Each word is a placeholder,
either for text you enter when issuing a command or for text displayed by
the system. Aside from standard usage for presenting the title of a work,
italics denotes the first use of a new and important term. For example:

  Publican is a DocBook publishing system.


1.2.Â Pull-quote Conventions

Terminal output and source code listings are set off visually from the
surrounding text. Output sent to a terminal is set in mono-spaced roman
and presented thus:

books        Desktop   documentation  drafts  mss    photos   stuff  svn
books_tests  Desktop1  downloads      images  notes  scripts  svgs

Source-code listings are also set in mono-spaced roman but add syntax
highlighting as follows:

package org.jboss.book.jca.ex1;
import javax.naming.InitialContext;
public class ExClient
{
   public static void main(String args[]) 
       throws Exception
   {
      InitialContext iniCtx = new InitialContext();
      Object         ref    = iniCtx.lookup("EchoBean");
      EchoHome       home   = (EchoHome) ref;
      Echo           echo   = home.create();

      System.out.println("Created Echo");

      System.out.println("Echo.echo('Hello') = " + echo.echo("Hello"));
   }
}


1.3.Â Notes and Warnings

Finally, we use three visual styles to draw attention to information that
might otherwise be overlooked.


Note
----

Notes are tips, shortcuts or alternative approaches to the task at hand.
Ignoring a note should have no negative consequences, but you might miss
out on a trick that makes your life easier.


Important
---------

Important boxes detail things that are easily missed: configuration
changes that only apply to the current session, or services that need
restarting before an update will apply. Ignoring a box labeled
'Important' won't cause data loss but may cause irritation and
frustration.


Warning
-------

Warnings should not be ignored. Ignoring warnings will most likely cause
data loss.


2.Â We Need Feedback!

      1.3.1. Internal Components

1.4. Types of Pacemaker Clusters


1.1.Â The Scope of this Document
--------------------------------

Computer clusters can be used to provide highly available services or
resources. The redundancy of multiple machines is used to guard against
failures of many types. This document will walk through the installation
and setup of simple clusters using the Fedora distribution, version 14.
The clusters described here will use Pacemaker and Corosync to provide
resource management and messaging. Required packages and modifications to
their configuration files are described along with the use of the
Pacemaker command line tool for generating the XML used for cluster
control. Pacemaker is a central component and provides the resource
management required in these systems. This management includes detecting
and recovering from the failure of various nodes, resources and services
under its control. When more in depth information is required and for
real world usage, please refer to the Pacemaker Explained manual.


1.2.Â What Is Pacemaker?
------------------------

Pacemaker is a cluster resource manager. It achieves maximum availability
for your cluster services (aka. resources) by detecting and recovering
from node and resource-level failures by making use of the messaging and
membership capabilities provided by your preferred cluster infrastructure
(either Corosync or Heartbeat). Pacemakerâs key features include:

  *  Detection and recovery of node and service-level failures

  *  Storage agnostic, no requirement for shared storage

  *  Resource agnostic, anything that can be scripted can be clustered

  *  Supports STONITH for ensuring data integrity

  *  Supports large and small clusters

  *  Supports both quorate and resource driven clusters

  *  Supports practically any redundancy configuration

  *  Automatically replicated configuration that can be updated from any
    node

  *  Ability to specify cluster-wide service ordering, colocation and
    anti-colocation

  *  Support for advanced service types

      *  Clones: for services which need to be active on multiple nodes

      *  Multi-state: for services with multiple modes (eg. master/slave,
        primary/secondary)

  *  Unified, scriptable, cluster shell


1.3.Â Pacemaker Architecture
----------------------------

1.3.1. Internal Components

At the highest level, the cluster is made up of three pieces:

  *  Non-cluster aware components (illustrated in green). These pieces
    include the resources themselves, scripts that start, stop and
    monitor them, and also a local daemon that masks the differences
    between the different standards these scripts implement.

  *  Resource management Pacemaker provides the brain (illustrated in
    blue) that processes and reacts to events regarding the cluster.
    These events include nodes joining or leaving the cluster; resource
    events caused by failures, maintenance, scheduled activities; and
    other administrative actions. Pacemaker will compute the ideal state
    of the cluster and plot a path to achieve it after any of these
    events. This may include moving resources, stopping nodes and even
    forcing them offline with remote power switches.

  *  Low level infrastructure Corosync provides reliable messaging,
    membership and quorum information about the cluster (illustrated in
    red).

Conceptual overview of the cluster stack

FigureÂ 1.1.Â Conceptual Stack Overview


When combined with Corosync, Pacemaker also supports popular open source
cluster filesystems. [1] Due to recent standardization within the cluster
filesystem community, they make use of a common distributed lock manager
which makes use of Corosync for its messaging capabilities and Pacemaker
for its membership (which nodes are up/down) and fencing services.
The Pacemaker StackThe Pacemaker stack when running on Corosync

FigureÂ 1.2.Â The Pacemaker Stack


1.3.1.Â Internal Components

Pacemaker itself is composed of four key components (illustrated below in
the same color scheme as the previous diagram):

  *  CIB (aka. Cluster Information Base)

  *  CRMd (aka. Cluster Resource Management daemon)

  *  PEngine (aka. PE or Policy Engine)

  *  STONITHd

Subsystems of a Pacemaker cluster running on Corosync

FigureÂ 1.3.Â Internal Components


The CIB uses XML to represent both the clusterâs configuration and
current state of all resources in the cluster. The contents of the CIB
are automatically kept in sync across the entire cluster and are used by
the PEngine to compute the ideal state of the cluster and how it should
be achieved. This list of instructions is then fed to the DC (Designated
Co-ordinator). Pacemaker centralizes all cluster decision making by
electing one of the CRMd instances to act as a master. Should the elected
CRMd process, or the node it is on, failâ¦ a new one is quickly
established. The DC carries out the PEngineâs instructions in the
required order by passing them to either the LRMd (Local Resource
Management daemon) or CRMd peers on other nodes via the cluster messaging
infrastructure (which in turn passes them on to their LRMd process). The
peer nodes all report the results of their operations back to the DC and
based on the expected and actual results, will either execute any actions
that needed to wait for the previous one to complete, or abort processing
and ask the PEngine to recalculate the ideal cluster state based on the
unexpected results. In some cases, it may be necessary to power off nodes
in order to protect shared data or complete resource recovery. For this
Pacemaker comes with STONITHd. STONITH is an acronym for
Shoot-The-Other-Node-In-The-Head and is usually implemented with a remote
power switch. In Pacemaker, STONITH devices are modeled as resources (and
configured in the CIB) to enable them to be easily monitored for failure,
however STONITHd takes care of understanding the STONITH topology such
that its clients simply request a node be fenced and it does the rest.


1.4.Â Types of Pacemaker Clusters
---------------------------------

Pacemaker makes no assumptions about your environment, this allows it to
support practically any redundancy configuration including Active/Active,
Active/Passive, N+1, N+M, N-to-1 and N-to-N. In this document we will
focus on the setup of a highly available Apache web server with an
Active/Passive cluster using DRBD and Ext4 to store data. Then, we will
upgrade this cluster to Active/Active using GFS2.
Two-node Active/Passive clusters using Pacemaker and DRBD are a cost-effective solution for many High Availability situations

FigureÂ 1.4.Â Active/Passive Redundancy


When shared storage is available, every node can potentially be used for failover. Pacemaker can even run multiple copies of services to spread out the workload

FigureÂ 1.5.Â N to N Redundancy



------------------------------------------------------------------------

[1] Even though Pacemaker also supports Heartbeat, the filesystems need
to use the stack for messaging and membership and Corosync seems to be
what theyâre standardizing on. Technically it would be possible for
them to support Heartbeat as well, however there seems little interest in
this.

2.1.Â OS Installation
---------------------

Detailed instructions for installing Fedora are available at
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/install-guide/f13/ in a number of
languages. The abbreviated version is as followsâ¦ Point your browser to
http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora-all, locate the Install Media
section and download the install DVD that matches your hardware. Burn the
disk image to a DVD [2] and boot from it. Or use the image to boot a
virtual machine as I have done here. After clicking through the welcome
screen, select your language and keyboard layout [3]Welcome

FigureÂ 2.1.Â Installation: Good choice


Storage Devices

FigureÂ 2.2.Â Fedora Installation - Storage Devices


Assign your machine a host name. [4] I happen to control the
clusterlabs.org domain name, so I will use that here. Hostname

FigureÂ 2.3.Â Fedora Installation - Hostname


You will then be prompted to indicate the machineâs physical location
and to supply a root password. [5] Now select where you want Fedora
installed. [6] As I donât care about any existing data, I will accept
the default and allow Fedora to use the complete drive. However I want to
reserve some space for DRBD, so Iâll check the Review and modify
partitioning layout box. Choose Install Type

FigureÂ 2.4.Â Fedora Installation - Installation Type


By default, Fedora will give all the space to the / (aka. root)
partition. Welâll take some back so we can use DRBD.
Default Partitioning

FigureÂ 2.5.Â Fedora Installation - Default Partitioning


The finalized partition layout should look something like the diagram
below.


Important
---------

If you plan on following the DRBD or GFS2 portions of this guide, you
should reserve at least 1Gb of space on each machine from which to create
a shared volume. Fedora Installation - Customize PartitioningFedora

Next choose which software should be installed. Change the selection to
Web Server since we plan on using Apache. Donât enable updates yet,
weâll do that (and install any extra software we need) later. After you
click next, Fedora will begin installing. Software selection

2.2.1.Â Security Shortcuts

To simplify this guide and focus on the aspects directly connected to
clustering, we will now disable the machineâs firewall and SELinux
installation. Both of these actions create significant security issues
and should not be performed on machines that will be exposed to the
outside world.


Important
---------

TODO: Create an Appendix that deals with (at least) re-enabling the firewall.

# sed -i.bak "s/SELINUX=enforcing/SELINUX=permissive/g" /etc/selinux/config# /sbin/chkconfig --del iptables# service iptables stopiptables: Flushing firewall rules:                         [  OK  ]iptables: Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: filter          [  OK  ]iptables: Unloading modules:                               [  OK  ]


Note
----

You will need to reboot for the SELinux changes to take effect. Otherwise
you will see something like this when you start corosync:

May  4 19:30:54 pcmk-1 setroubleshoot: SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/corosync "getattr" access on /. For complete SELinux messages. run sealert -l 6e0d4384-638e-4d55-9aaf-7dac011f29c1

2.3.Â Before You Continue
-------------------------

Repeat the Installation steps so that you have 2 Fedora nodes with the
cluster software installed. For the purposes of this document, the
additional node is called pcmk-2 with address 192.168.122.102.


2.4.Â Setup
-----------

2.4.1. Finalize Networking

2.4.2. Configure SSH

2.4.3. Short Node Names

2.4.4. Configuring Corosync

2.4.5. Propagate the Configuration


2.4.1.Â Finalize Networking

Confirm that you can communicate with the two new nodes:

# ping -c 3 192.168.122.102PING 192.168.122.102 (192.168.122.102) 56(84) bytes of data.

rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.343/0.434/0.558/0.092 ms

Figure 2.18. Verify Connectivity by IP address Now we need to make sure
we can communicate with the machines by their name. If you have a DNS
server, add additional entries for the two machines. Otherwise, youâll
need to add the machines to /etc/hosts . Below are the entries for my
cluster nodes:

# grep pcmk /etc/hosts192.168.122.101 pcmk-1.clusterlabs.org pcmk-1
192.168.122.102 pcmk-2.clusterlabs.org pcmk-2

Figure 2.19. Set up /etc/hosts entries We can now verify the setup by
again using ping:

# ping -c 3 pcmk-2PING pcmk-2.clusterlabs.org (192.168.122.101) 56(84) bytes of data.

Figure 2.20. Verify Connectivity by Hostname


2.4.2.Â Configure SSH

SSH is a convenient and secure way to copy files and perform commands
remotely. For the purposes of this guide, we will create a key without a
password (using the -N ââ option) so that we can perform remote
actions without being prompted.


Warning
-------

Unprotected SSH keys, those without a password, are not recommended for
servers exposed to the outside world. Create a new key and allow anyone
with that key to log in:

# ssh-keygen -t dsa -f ~/.ssh/id_dsa -N ""Generating public/private dsa key pair.
Your identification has been saved in /root/.ssh/id_dsa.
Your public key has been saved in /root/.ssh/id_dsa.pub.
The key fingerprint is:
91:09:5c:82:5a:6a:50:08:4e:b2:0c:62:de:cc:74:44 root@pcmk-1.clusterlabs.org

The key's randomart image is:+--[ DSA 1024]----+|==.ooEo..        ||X O + .o o       || * A    +        ||  +      .       || .      S        ||                 ||                 ||                 ||                 |+-----------------+# cp .ssh/id_dsa.pub .ssh/authorized_keys

Install the key on the other nodes and test that you can now run commands
remotely, without being prompted

# scp -r .ssh pcmk-2:The authenticity of host 'pcmk-2 (192.168.122.102)' can't be established.RSA key fingerprint is b1:2b:55:93:f1:d9:52:2b:0f:f2:8a:4e:ae:c6:7c:9a.Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yesWarning: Permanently added 'pcmk-2,192.168.122.102' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.root@pcmk-2's password:id_dsa.pub                           100%  616     0.6KB/s   00:00id_dsa                               100%  672     0.7KB/s   00:00

Figure 2.22. Installing the SSH Key on Another Host


2.4.3.Â Short Node Names

During installation, we filled in the machineâs fully qualifier domain
name (FQDN) which can be rather long when it appears in cluster logs and
status output. See for yourself how the machine identifies itself:

# uname -npcmk-1.clusterlabs.org# dnsdomainname clusterlabs.org

The output from the second command is fine, but we really donât need
the domain name included in the basic host details. To address this, we
need to update /etc/sysconfig/network. This is what it should look like
before we start.

# cat /etc/sysconfig/networkNETWORKING=yesHOSTNAME=pcmk-1.clusterlabs.orgGATEWAY=192.168.122.1

All we need to do now is strip off the domain name portion, which is
stored elsewhere anyway.

 # sed -i.bak 's/\.[a-z].*//g' /etc/sysconfig/network

Now confirm the change was successful. The revised file contents should
look something like this.

# cat /etc/sysconfig/networkNETWORKING=yesHOSTNAME=pcmk-1GATEWAY=192.168.122.1

However weâre not finished. The machine wont normally see the shortened
host name until about it reboots, but we can force it to update.

# source /etc/sysconfig/network# hostname $HOSTNAME

Now check the machine is using the correct names

# uname -npcmk-1# dnsdomainname clusterlabs.org

Now repeat on pcmk-2.


2.4.4.Â Configuring Corosync

Choose a port number and multi-cast [8] address. [9] Be sure that the
values you chose do not conflict with any existing clusters you might
have. For advice on choosing a multi-cast address, see
http://www.29west.com/docs/THPM/multicast-address-assignment.html For
this document, I have chosen port 4000 and used 226.94.1.1 as the
multi-cast address.


Important
---------

The instructions below only apply for a machine with a single NIC. If you
have a more complicated setup, you should edit the configuration
manually.

# export ais_port=4000# export ais_mcast=226.94.1.1

Next we automatically determine the hosts address. By not using the full
address, we make the configuration suitable to be copied to other nodes.

# export ais_addr=`ip addr | grep "inet " | tail -n 1 | awk '{print $4}' | sed s/255/0/`

Display and verify the configuration options

# env | grep ais_ais_mcast=226.94.1.1ais_port=4000ais_addr=192.168.122.0

Once youâre happy with the chosen values, update the Corosync
configuration

# cp /etc/corosync/corosync.conf.example /etc/corosync/corosync.conf# sed -i.bak "s/.*mcastaddr:.*/mcastaddr:\ $ais_mcast/g" /etc/corosync/corosync.conf# sed -i.bak "s/.*mcastport:.*/mcastport:\ $ais_port/g" /etc/corosync/corosync.conf# sed -i.bak "s/.*bindnetaddr:.*/bindnetaddr:\ $ais_addr/g" /etc/corosync/corosync.conf

Finally, tell Corosync to load the Pacemaker plugin.

# cat <<-END >>/etc/corosync/service.d/pcmkservice {        # Load the Pacemaker Cluster Resource Manager        name: pacemaker
        ver:  1
}
END

The final configuration should look something like the sample in Appendix
B, Sample Corosync Configuration.


Important
---------

When run in version 1 mode, the plugin does not start the Pacemaker
daemons. Instead it just sets up the quorum and messaging interfaces
needed by the rest of the stack. Starting the dameons occurs when the
Pacemaker init script is invoked. This resolves two long standing issues:

  1.  Forking inside a multi-threaded process like Corosync causes all
    sorts of pain. This has been problematic for Pacemaker as it needs a
    number of daemons to be spawned.

  2.  Corosync was never designed for staggered shutdown - something
    previously needed in order to prevent the cluster from leaving before
    Pacemaker could stop all active resources.


2.4.5.Â Propagate the Configuration

Now we need to copy the changes so far to the other node:

# for f in /etc/corosync/corosync.conf /etc/corosync/service.d/pcmk /etc/hosts; do scp $f pcmk-2:$f ; donecorosync.conf                            100% 1528     1.5KB/s   00:00
hosts                                    100%  281     0.3KB/s   00:00#

With one node functional, itâs now safe to start Corosync on the second
node as well.

Now that we have confirmed that Corosync is functional we can check the
rest of the stack.

ChapterÂ 4.Â Pacemaker Tools
----------------------------

4.1. Using Pacemaker Tools


4.1.Â Using Pacemaker Tools
---------------------------

In the dark past, configuring Pacemaker required the administrator to
read and write XML. In true UNIX style, there were also a number of
different commands that specialized in different aspects of querying and
updating the cluster. Since Pacemaker 1.0, this has all changed and we
have an integrated, scriptable, cluster shell that hides all the messy
XML scaffolding. It even allows you to queue up several changes at once
and commit them atomically. Take some time to familiarize yourself with
what it can do. # crm --help

The primary tool for monitoring the status of the cluster is crm_mon
(also available as crm status). It can be run in a variety of modes and
has a number of output options. To find out about any of the tools that
come with Pacemaker, simply invoke them with the --help option or consult
the included man pages. Both sets of output are created from the tool,
and so will always be in sync with each other and the tool itself.
Additionally, the Pacemaker version and supported cluster stack(s) are
available via the --feature option to pacemakerd. # pacemakerd --features

# pacemakerd --help

# crm_mon --help


Note

If the SNMP and/or email options are not listed, then Pacemaker was not
built to support them. This may be by the choice of your distribution or
the required libraries may not have been available. Please contact
whoever supplied you with the packages for more details.


ChapterÂ 5.Â Creating an Active/Passive Cluster
-----------------------------------------------

5.1. Exploring the Existing Configuration

5.2. Adding a Resource

5.3. Perform a Failover

      5.3.1. Quorum and Two-Node Clusters

      5.3.2. Prevent Resources from Moving after Recovery


5.1.Â Exploring the Existing Configuration
------------------------------------------

When Pacemaker starts up, it automatically records the number and details
of the nodes in the cluster as well as which stack is being used and the
version of Pacemaker being used. This is what the base configuration
should look like.

# crm configure shownode pcmk-1
node pcmk-2
property $id="cib-bootstrap-options" \
    dc-version="1.1.5-bdd89e69ba545404d02445be1f3d72e6a203ba2f" \
    cluster-infrastructure="openais" \
    expected-quorum-votes="2"

For those that are not of afraid of XML, you can see the raw
configuration by appending "xml" to the previous command.

# crm configure show xml<?xml version="1.0" ?><cib admin_epoch="0" crm_feature_set="3.0.1" dc-uuid="pcmk-1" epoch="13" have-quorum="1" num_updates="7" validate-with="pacemaker-1.0"> <configuration>  <crm_config>   <cluster_property_set id="cib-bootstrap-options">    <nvpair id="cib-bootstrap-options-dc-version" name="dc-version" value="1.1.5-bdd89e69ba545404d02445be1f3d72e6a203ba2f"/>    <nvpair id="cib-bootstrap-options-cluster-infrastructure" name="cluster-infrastructure" value="openais"/>    <nvpair id="cib-bootstrap-options-expected-quorum-votes" name="expected-quorum-votes" value="2"/>   </cluster_property_set>  </crm_config>  <rsc_defaults/>  <op_defaults/>  <nodes>   <node id="pcmk-1" type="normal" uname="pcmk-1"/>   <node id="pcmk-2" type="normal" uname="pcmk-2"/>  </nodes>  <resources/>  <constraints/> </configuration></cib>

Before we make any changes, its a good idea to check the validity of the
configuration.

# crm_verify -Lcrm_verify[2195]: 2009/08/27_16:57:12 ERROR: unpack_resources: Resource start-up disabled since no STONITH resources have been defined
crm_verify[2195]: 2009/08/27_16:57:12 ERROR: unpack_resources: Either configure some or disable STONITH with the stonith-enabled option
crm_verify[2195]: 2009/08/27_16:57:12 ERROR: unpack_resources: NOTE: Clusters with shared data need STONITH to ensure data integrity
Errors found during check: config not valid -V may provide more details#

As you can see, the tool has found some errors. In order to guarantee the
safety of your data [10] , Pacemaker ships with STONITH [11] enabled.
However it also knows when no STONITH configuration has been supplied and
reports this as a problem (since the cluster would not be able to make
progress if a situation requiring node fencing arose). For now, we will
disable this feature and configure it later in the Configuring STONITH
section. It is important to note that the use of STONITH is highly
encouraged, turning it off tells the cluster to simply pretend that
failed nodes are safely powered off. Some vendors will even refuse to
support clusters that have it disabled. To disable STONITH, we set the
stonith-enabled cluster option to false.

# crm configure property stonith-enabled=false# crm_verify -L

With the new cluster option set, the configuration is now valid.


Warning
-------

The use of stonith-enabled=false is completely inappropriate for a
production cluster. We use it here to defer the discussion of its
configuration which can differ widely from one installation to the next.
See SectionÂ 9.1, âWhat Is STONITHâ for information on why STONITH is
important and details on how to configure it.


5.2.Â Adding a Resource
-----------------------

The first thing we should do is configure an IP address. Regardless of
where the cluster service(s) are running, we need a consistent address to
contact them on. Here I will choose and add 192.168.122.101 as the
floating address, give it the imaginative name ClusterIP and tell the
cluster to check that its running every 30 seconds.


Important
---------

The chosen address must not be one already associated with a physical
node

# crm configure primitive ClusterIP ocf:heartbeat:IPaddr2 \     params ip=192.168.122.101 cidr_netmask=32 \
     op monitor interval=30s

The other important piece of information here is ocf:heartbeat:IPaddr2.
This tells Pacemaker three things about the resource you want to add. The
first field, ocf, is the standard to which the resource script conforms
to and where to find it. The second field is specific to OCF resources
and tells the cluster which namespace to find the resource script in, in
this case heartbeat. The last field indicates the name of the resource
script. To obtain a list of the available resource classes, run

# crm ra classesheartbeatlsb ocf / heartbeat pacemakerstonith

To then find all the OCF resource agents provided by Pacemaker and
Heartbeat, run

# crm ra list ocf pacemakerClusterMon   Dummy     Stateful    SysInfo    SystemHealth  controldping      pingd# crm ra list ocf heartbeatAoEtarget       AudibleAlarm      ClusterMon       Delay

Now verify that the IP resource has been added and display the
clusterâs status to see that it is now active.

5.3.Â Perform a Failover
------------------------

5.3.1. Quorum and Two-Node Clusters

5.3.2. Prevent Resources from Moving after Recovery

Being a high-availability cluster, we should test failover of our new
resource before moving on. First, find the node on which the IP address
is running.

# crm resource status ClusterIPresource ClusterIP is running on: pcmk-1#

Shut down Pacemaker and Corosync on that machine.

# ssh pcmk-1 -- /etc/init.d/pacemaker stopSignaling Pacemaker Cluster Manager to terminate: [ OK ]Waiting for cluster services to unload:. [ OK ]# ssh pcmk-1 -- /etc/init.d/corosync stopStopping Corosync Cluster Engine (corosync): [ OK ]Waiting for services to unload: [ OK ]#

Once Corosync is no longer running, go to the other node and check the
cluster status with crm_mon.

2 Nodes configured, 2 expected votes
1 Resources configured.
============

Online: [ pcmk-2 ]OFFLINE: [ pcmk-1 ]

There are three things to notice about the clusterâs current state. The
first is that, as expected, pcmk-1 is now offline. However we can also
see that ClusterIP isnât running anywhere!


5.3.1.Â Quorum and Two-Node Clusters

This is because the cluster no longer has quorum, as can be seen by the
text "partition WITHOUT quorum" (emphasised green) in the output above.
In order to reduce the possibility of data corruption, Pacemakerâs
default behavior is to stop all resources if the cluster does not have
quorum. A cluster is said to have quorum when more than half the known or
expected nodes are online, or for the mathematically inclined, whenever
the following equation is true:

total_nodes < 2 * active_nodes

Therefore a two-node cluster only has quorum when both nodes are running,
which is no longer the case for our cluster. This would normally make the
creation of a two-node cluster pointless [12] , however it is possible to
control how Pacemaker behaves when quorum is lost. In particular, we can
tell the cluster to simply ignore quorum altogether.

# crm configure property no-quorum-policy=ignore# crm configure shownode pcmk-1
node pcmk-2
primitive ClusterIP ocf:heartbeat:IPaddr2 \
    params ip="192.168.122.101" cidr_netmask="32" \
    op monitor interval="30s"property $id="cib-bootstrap-options" \
    dc-version="1.1.5-bdd89e69ba545404d02445be1f3d72e6a203ba2f" \
    cluster-infrastructure="openais" \
    expected-quorum-votes="2" \
    stonith-enabled="false" \
    no-quorum-policy="ignore"

After a few moments, the cluster will start the IP address on the
remaining node. Note that the cluster still does not have quorum.

Now simulate node recovery by restarting the cluster stack on pcmk-1 and
check the clusterâs status.

Online: [ pcmk-1 pcmk-2 ]
ClusterIP    (ocf::heartbeat:IPaddr):    Started pcmk-1

Here we see something that some may consider surprising, the IP is back
running at its original location!


5.3.2.Â Prevent Resources from Moving after Recovery

In some circumstances, it is highly desirable to prevent healthy
resources from being moved around the cluster. Moving resources almost
always requires a period of downtime. For complex services like Oracle
databases, this period can be quite long. To address this, Pacemaker has
the concept of resource stickiness which controls how much a service
prefers to stay running where it is. You may like to think of it as the
"cost" of any downtime. By default, Pacemaker assumes there is zero cost
associated with moving resources and will do so to achieve "optimal" [13]
resource placement. We can specify a different stickiness for every
resource, but it is often sufficient to change the default.

# crm configure rsc_defaults resource-stickiness=100# crm configure shownode pcmk-1
node pcmk-2
primitive ClusterIP ocf:heartbeat:IPaddr2 \
    params ip="192.168.122.101" cidr_netmask="32" \
    op monitor interval="30s"property $id="cib-bootstrap-options" \

    stonith-enabled="false" \
    no-quorum-policy="ignore"rsc_defaults $id="rsc-options" \
    resource-stickiness="100"

If we now retry the failover test, we see that as expected ClusterIP
still moves to pcmk-2 when pcmk-1 is taken offline.

[10] If the data is corrupt, there is little point in continuing to make
it available

[11] A common node fencing mechanism. Used to ensure data integrity by
powering off "bad" nodes

[12] Actually some would argue that two-node clusters are always
pointless, but that is an argument for another time

[13] It should be noted that Pacemakerâs definition of optimal may not
always agree with that of a humanâs. The order in which Pacemaker
processes lists of resources and nodes creates implicit preferences in
situations where the administrator has not explicitly specified them


ChapterÂ 6.Â Apache - Adding More Services
------------------------------------------

6.1. Forward

6.2. Installation

6.3. Preparation

6.4. Enable the Apache status URL

6.5. Update the Configuration

6.6. Ensuring Resources Run on the Same Host

6.7. Controlling Resource Start/Stop Ordering

6.1.Â Forward
-------------

Now that we have a basic but functional active/passive two-node cluster,
weâre ready to add some real services. Weâre going to start with
Apache because its a feature of many clusters and relatively simple to
configure.


6.2.Â Installation
------------------

Before continuing, we need to make sure Apache is installed on both
hosts.

6.3.Â Preparation
-----------------

First we need to create a page for Apache to serve up. On Fedora the
default Apache docroot is /var/www/html, so weâll create an index file
there.

[root@pcmk-1 ~]# cat <<-END >/var/www/html/index.html <html> <body>My Test Site - pcmk-1</body>
 </html>
 END

For the moment, we will simplify things by serving up only a static site
and manually sync the data between the two nodes. So run the command
again on pcmk-2.

[root@pcmk-2 ~]# cat <<-END >/var/www/html/index.html <html> <body>My Test Site - pcmk-2</body>
 </html>
 END


6.4.Â Enable the Apache status URL
----------------------------------

In order to monitor the health of your Apache instance, and recover it if
it fails, the resource agent used by Pacemaker assumes the server-status
URL is available. Look for the following in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
and make sure it is not disabled or commented out:

<Location /server-status>
   SetHandler server-status
   Order deny,allow
   Deny from all
   Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Location>


6.5.Â Update the Configuration
------------------------------

At this point, Apache is ready to go, all that needs to be done is to add
it to the cluster. Lets call the resource WebSite. We need to use an OCF
script called apache in the heartbeat namespace [14] , the only required
parameter is the path to the main Apache configuration file and weâll
tell the cluster to check once a minute that apache is still running.

# crm configure primitive WebSite ocf:heartbeat:apache params configfile=/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf op monitor interval=1min# crm configure shownode pcmk-1
node pcmk-2primitive WebSite ocf:heartbeat:apache \ params configfile="/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf" \ op monitor interval="1min"primitive ClusterIP ocf:heartbeat:IPaddr2 \

    stonith-enabled="false" \
    no-quorum-policy="ignore"rsc_defaults $id="rsc-options" \
    resource-stickiness="100"

After a short delay, we should see the cluster start apache

To reduce the load on any one machine, Pacemaker will generally try to
spread the configured resources across the cluster nodes. However we can
tell the cluster that two resources are related and need to run on the
same host (or not at all). Here we instruct the cluster that WebSite can
only run on the host that ClusterIP is active on. For the constraint, we
need a name (choose something descriptive like website-with-ip), indicate
that its mandatory (so that if ClusterIP is not active anywhere, WebSite
will not be permitted to run anywhere either) by specifying a score of
INFINITY and finally list the two resources.


Note
----

If ClusterIP is not active anywhere, WebSite will not be permitted to run
anywhere.


Important
---------

Colocation constraints are "directional", in that they imply certain
things about the order in which the two resources will have a location
chosen. In this case weâre saying WebSite needs to be placed on the
same machine as ClusterIP, this implies that we must know the location of
ClusterIP before choosing a location for WebSite.

6.7.Â Controlling Resource Start/Stop Ordering
----------------------------------------------

When Apache starts, it binds to the available IP addresses. It doesnât
know about any addresses we add afterwards, so not only do they need to
run on the same node, but we need to make sure ClusterIP is already
active before we start WebSite. We do this by adding an ordering
constraint. We need to give it a name (choose something descriptive like
apache-after-ip), indicate that its mandatory (so that any recovery for
ClusterIP will also trigger recovery of WebSite) and list the two
resources in the order we need them to start.

# crm configure order apache-after-ip mandatory: ClusterIP WebSite# crm configure shownode pcmk-1

6.8.Â Specifying a Preferred Location
-------------------------------------

Pacemaker does not rely on any sort of hardware symmetry between nodes,
so it may well be that one machine is more powerful than the other. In
such cases it makes sense to host the resources there if it is available.
To do this we create a location constraint. Again we give it a
descriptive name (prefer-pcmk-1), specify the resource we want to run
there (WebSite), how badly weâd like it to run there (weâll use 50
for now, but in a two-node situation almost any value above 0 will do)
and the hostâs name.

Wait a minute, the resources are still on pcmk-2! Even though we now
prefer pcmk-1 over pcmk-2, that preference is (intentionally) less than
the resource stickiness (how much we preferred not to have unnecessary
downtime). To see the current placement scores, you can use a tool called
ptest

ptest -sL

6.9.Â Manually Moving Resources Around the Cluster
--------------------------------------------------

6.9.1. Giving Control Back to the Cluster

There are always times when an administrator needs to override the
cluster and force resources to move to a specific location. Underneath we
use location constraints like the one we created above, happily you
donât need to care. Just provide the name of the resource and the
intended location, weâll do the rest.

Online: [ pcmk-1 pcmk-2 ]
ClusterIP    (ocf::heartbeat:IPaddr):    Started pcmk-1
WebSite    (ocf::heartbeat:apache):    Started pcmk-1

Notice how the colocation rule we created has ensured that ClusterIP was
also moved to pcmk-1. For the curious, we can see the effect of this
command by examining the configuration

# crm configure shownode pcmk-1
node pcmk-2
primitive WebSite ocf:heartbeat:apache \
    params configfile="/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf" \
    op monitor interval="1min"primitive ClusterIP ocf:heartbeat:IPaddr2 \

    stonith-enabled="false" \
    no-quorum-policy="ignore"rsc_defaults $id="rsc-options" \
    resource-stickiness="100"

Highlighted is the automated constraint used to move the resources to
pcmk-1


6.9.1.Â Giving Control Back to the Cluster

Once weâve finished whatever activity that required us to move the
resources to pcmk-1, in our case nothing, we can then allow the cluster
to resume normal operation with the unmove command. Since we previously
configured a default stickiness, the resources will remain on pcmk-1.

# crm resource unmove WebSite# crm configure shownode pcmk-1
node pcmk-2
primitive WebSite ocf:heartbeat:apache \
    params configfile="/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf" \
    op monitor interval="1min"primitive ClusterIP ocf:heartbeat:IPaddr2 \
    params ip="192.168.122.101" cidr_netmask="32" \
    op monitor interval="30s"location prefer-pcmk-1 WebSite 50: pcmk-1
colocation website-with-ip inf: WebSite ClusterIP
property $id="cib-bootstrap-options" \
    dc-version="1.1.5-bdd89e69ba545404d02445be1f3d72e6a203ba2f" \

    stonith-enabled="false" \
    no-quorum-policy="ignore"rsc_defaults $id="rsc-options" \
    resource-stickiness="100"

Note that the automated constraint is now gone. If we check the cluster
status, we can also see that as expected the resources are still active
on pcmk-1.

7.1.Â Background
----------------

Even if youâre serving up static websites, having to manually
synchronize the contents of that website to all the machines in the
cluster is not ideal. For dynamic websites, such as a wiki, itâs not
even an option. Not everyone care afford network-attached storage but
somehow the data needs to be kept in sync. Enter DRBD which can be
thought of as network based RAID-1. See http://www.drbd.org/ for more
details.


7.2.Â Install the DRBD Packages
-------------------------------

Since its inclusion in the upstream 2.6.33 kernel, everything needed to
use DRBD ships with Fedora 13. All you need to do is install it:

7.3.Â Configure DRBD
--------------------

7.3.1. Create A Partition for DRBD

7.3.2. Write the DRBD Config

7.3.3. Initialize and Load DRBD

7.3.4. Populate DRBD with Data

Before we configure DRBD, we need to set aside some disk for it to use.


7.3.1.Â Create A Partition for DRBD

If you have more than 1Gb free, feel free to use it. For this guide
however, 1Gb is plenty of space for a single html file and sufficient for
later holding the GFS2 metadata.

# lvcreate -n drbd-demo -L 1G VolGroupLogical volume "drbd-demo" created# lvsLV    VG    Attr  LSize  Origin Snap% Move Log Copy% Convert
drbd-demo VolGroup -wi-a- 1.00G
lv_root  VolGroup -wi-ao  7.30G
lv_swap  VolGroup -wi-ao 500.00M

Repeat this on the second node, be sure to use the same size partition.

# ssh pcmk-2 -- lvsLV   VG    Attr  LSize  Origin Snap% Move Log Copy% Convert
lv_root VolGroup -wi-ao  7.30G
lv_swap VolGroup -wi-ao 500.00M# ssh pcmk-2 -- lvcreate -n drbd-demo -L 1G VolGroupLogical volume "drbd-demo" created# ssh pcmk-2 -- lvsLV    VG    Attr  LSize  Origin Snap% Move Log Copy% Convert
drbd-demo VolGroup -wi-a- 1.00G
lv_root  VolGroup -wi-ao  7.30G
lv_swap  VolGroup -wi-ao 500.00M


7.3.2.Â Write the DRBD Config

There is no series of commands for building a DRBD configuration, so
simply copy the configuration below to /etc/drbd.conf Detailed
information on the directives used in this configuration (and other
alternatives) is available from
http://www.drbd.org/users-guide/ch-configure.html


Warning
-------

Be sure to use the names and addresses of your nodes if they differ from
the ones used in this guide.

 }
 on pcmk-2 {

  address  192.168.122.102:7789;
 }
}


Note

TODO: Explain the reason for the allow-two-primaries option


7.3.3.Â Initialize and Load DRBD

With the configuration in place, we can now perform the DRBD
initialization

# drbdadm create-md wwwdatamd_offset 12578816
al_offset 12546048
bm_offset 12541952

Found some data
==> This might destroy existing data! <==

Do you want to proceed?
[need to type 'yes' to confirm] yesWriting meta data...
initializing activity log
NOT initialized bitmap
New drbd meta data block successfully created.
success

Now load the DRBD kernel module and confirm that everything is sane

# modprobe drbd# drbdadm up wwwdata# cat /proc/drbdversion: 8.3.6 (api:88/proto:86-90)GIT-hash: f3606c47cc6fcf6b3f086e425cb34af8b7a81bbf build by root@pcmk-1, 2009-12-08 11:22:57

Repeat on the second node

# ssh pcmk-2 -- drbdadm --force create-md wwwdataWriting meta data...

    ns:0 nr:0 dw:0 dr:0 al:0 bm:0 lo:0 pe:0 ua:0 ap:0 ep:1 wo:b oos:12248

Now we need to tell DRBD which set of data to use. Since both sides
contain garbage, we can run the following on pcmk-1:

# drbdadm -- --overwrite-data-of-peer primary wwwdata# cat /proc/drbdversion: 8.3.6 (api:88/proto:86-90)GIT-hash: f3606c47cc6fcf6b3f086e425cb34af8b7a81bbf build by root@pcmk-1, 2009-12-08 11:22:57

pcmk-1 is now in the Primary state which allows it to be written to.
Which means itâs a good point at which to create a filesystem and
populate it with some data to serve up via our WebSite resource.


7.3.4.Â Populate DRBD with Data

# mkfs.ext4 /dev/drbd1mke2fs 1.41.4 (27-Jan-2009)Filesystem label=OS type: Linux

This filesystem will be automatically checked every 26 mounts or
180 days, whichever comes first. Use tune2fs -c or -i to override.

Now mount the newly created filesystem so we can create our index file

# mount /dev/drbd1 /mnt/# cat <<-END >/mnt/index.html <html>  <body>My Test Site - drbd</body> </html> END# umount /dev/drbd1


7.4.Â Configure the Cluster for DRBD
------------------------------------

7.4.1. Testing Migration

One handy feature of the crm shell is that you can use it in interactive
mode to make several changes atomically. First we launch the shell. The
prompt will change to indicate youâre in interactive mode.

# crm cibcrm(live) #

Next we must create a working copy of the current configuration. This is
where all our changes will go. The cluster will not see any of them until
we say itâs ok. Notice again how the prompt changes, this time to
indicate that weâre no longer looking at the live cluster.

cib crm(live) # cib new drbdINFO: drbd shadow CIB created
crm(drbd) #

Now we can create our DRBD clone and display the revised configuration.

crm(drbd) # configure primitive WebData ocf:linbit:drbd params drbd_resource=wwwdata \    op monitor interval=60s
crm(drbd) # configure ms WebDataClone WebData meta master-max=1 master-node-max=1 \    clone-max=2 clone-node-max=1 notify=truecrm(drbd) # configure shownode pcmk-1node pcmk-2primitive WebData ocf:linbit:drbd \

    stonith-enabled="false" \
    no-quorum-policy="ignore"rsc_defaults $id="rsc-options" \
    resource-stickiness="100"

Once weâre happy with the changes, we can tell the cluster to start
using them and use crm_mon to check everything is functioning.

Include details on adding a second DRBD resource Now that DRBD is
functioning we can configure a Filesystem resource to use it. In addition
to the filesystemâs definition, we also need to tell the cluster where
it can be located (only on the DRBD Primary) and when it is allowed to

7.4.1.Â Testing Migration

We could shut down the active node again, but another way to safely
simulate recovery is to put the node into what is called "standby mode".
Nodes in this state tell the cluster that they are not allowed to run
resources. Any resources found active there will be moved elsewhere. This
feature can be particularly useful when updating the resources' packages.
Put the local node into standby mode and observe the cluster move all the
resources to the other node. Note also that the nodeâs status will
change to indicate that it can no longer host resources.

Once weâve done everything we needed to on pcmk-1 (in this case
nothing, we just wanted to see the resources move), we can allow the node
to be a full cluster member again.

      8.5.1. Testing Recovery


8.1.Â Requirements
------------------

The primary requirement for an Active/Active cluster is that the data
required for your services is available, simultaneously, on both
machines. Pacemaker makes no requirement on how this is achieved, you
could use a SAN if you had one available, however since DRBD supports
multiple Primaries, we can also use that. The only hitch is that we need
to use a cluster-aware filesystem. The one we used earlier with DRBD,
ext4, is not one of those. Both OCFS2 and GFS2 are supported, however
here we will use GFS2 which comes with Fedora 13. Weâll also need to
use CMAN for Cluster Membership and Quorum instead of our Corosync
plugin.


8.2.Â Adding CMAN Support
-------------------------

8.2.1. Installing the required Software

8.2.2. Configuring CMAN

8.2.3. Configuring CMAN Fencing

8.2.4. Bringing the Cluster Online with CMAN

CMAN v3 is a Corsync plugin that monitors the names and number of active
cluster nodes in order to deliver membership and quorum information to
clients (such as the Pacemaker daemons). In a traditional
Corosync-Pacemaker cluster, a Pacemaker plugin is loaded to provide
membership and quorum information. The motivation for wanting to use CMAN
for this instead, is to ensure all elements of the cluster stack are
making decisions based on the same membership and quorum data. [15] In
the case of GFS2, the key pieces are the dlm_controld and gfs_controld
helpers which act as the glue between the filesystem and the cluster
software. Supporting CMAN enables us to use the versions already being
shipped by most distributions (since CMAN has been around longer than
Pacemaker and is part of the Red Hat cluster stack).


Warning
-------

Ensure Corosync and Pacemaker are stopped on all nodes before continuing


Warning
-------

Be sure to disable the Pacemaker plugin before continuing with this
section. In most cases, this can be achieved by removing
/etc/corosync/service.d/pcmk and stopping Corosync.

Complete!


8.2.2.Â Configuring CMAN

The first thing we need to do, is tell CMAN complete starting up even
without quorum. We can do this by changing the quorum timeout setting:

# sed -i.sed "s/.*CMAN_QUORUM_TIMEOUT=.*/CMAN_QUORUM_TIMEOUT=0/g" /etc/sysconfig/cman

Next we create a basic configuration file and place it in
/etc/cluster/cluster.conf. The name used for each clusternode should
correspond to that nodeâs uname -n, just as Pacemaker expects. The
nodeid can be any positive mumber but must be unique.

<?xml version="1.0"?><cluster config_version="1" name="my_cluster_name">  <logging debug="off"/>  <clusternodes>    <clusternode name="pcmk-1" nodeid="1"/>    <clusternode name="pcmk-2" nodeid="2"/>  </clusternodes></cluster>


8.2.3.Â Configuring CMAN Fencing

We configure the fence_pcmk agent (supplied with Pacemaker) to redirect
any fencing requests from CMAN components (such as dlm_controld) to
Pacemaker. Pacemakerâs fencing subsystem lets other parts of the stack
know that a node has been successfully fenced, thus avoiding the need for
it to be fenced again when other subsystems notice the node is gone.


Warning
-------

Warning Configuring real fencing devices in CMAN will result in nodes
being fenced multiple times as different parts of the stack notice the
node is missing or failed. The definition should be placed in the
fencedevices section and contain:

 <fencedevice name="pcmk" agent="fence_pcmk"/>

Each clusternode must be configured to use this device by adding a fence
method block that lists the nodeâs name as the port.

 <fence>   <method name="pcmk-redirect">     <device name="pcmk" port="node_name_here"/>   </method> </fence>

Putting everything together, we have:

<?xml version="1.0"?><cluster config_version="1" name="mycluster">  <logging debug="off"/>  <clusternodes>    <clusternode name="pcmk-1" nodeid="1">      <fence>        <method name="pcmk-redirect">          <device name="pcmk" port="pcmk-1"/>        </method>      </fence>    </clusternode>    <clusternode name="pcmk-2" nodeid="2">      <fence>        <method name="pcmk-redirect">          <device name="pcmk" port="pcmk-2"/>        </method>      </fence>    </clusternode>  </clusternodes>  <fencedevices>    <fencedevice name="pcmk" agent="fence_pcmk"/>  </fencedevices></cluster>


8.2.4.Â Bringing the Cluster Online with CMAN

The first thing to do is check that the configuration is valid

# ccs_config_validateConfiguration validates

Now start CMAN

# service cman startStarting cluster:
   Checking Network Manager...                             [  OK  ]   Global setup...                                         [  OK  ]   Loading kernel modules...

[  OK  ]   Waiting for quorum...                                   [  OK  ]   Starting fenced...

Once you have confirmed that the first node is happily online, start the
second node.

[root@pcmk-2 ~]# service cman startStarting cluster:
   Checking Network Manager...                             [  OK  ]   Global setup...                                         [  OK  ]   Loading kernel modules...

You should now see both nodes online and services started.


8.3.Â Create a GFS2 Filesystem
------------------------------

8.3.1. Preparation

8.3.2. Create and Populate an GFS2 Partition


8.3.1.Â Preparation

Before we do anything to the existing partition, we need to make sure it
is unmounted. We do this by telling the cluster to stop the WebFS
resource. This will ensure that other resources (in our case, Apache)
using WebFS are not only stopped, but stopped in the correct order.

# crm_resource --resource WebFS --set-parameter target-role --meta --parameter-value Stopped# crm_mon============Last updated: Thu Sep 3 15:18:06 2009

Note
----

Note that both Apache and WebFS have been stopped.


8.3.2.Â Create and Populate an GFS2 Partition

Now that the cluster stack and integration pieces are running smoothly,
we can create an GFS2 partition.


Warning
-------

This will erase all previous content stored on the DRBD device. Ensure
you have a copy of any important data. We need to specify a number of
additional parameters when creating a GFS2 partition. First we must use
the -p option to specify that we want to use the the Kernelâs DLM. Next
we use -j to indicate that it should reserve enough space for two
journals (one per node accessing the filesystem). Lastly, we use -t to
specify the lock table name. The format for this field is
clustername:fsname. For the fsname, we just need to pick something unique
and descriptive and since we havenât specified a clustername yet, we
will use the default (pcmk). To specify an alternate name for the
cluster, locate the service section containing name: pacemaker in
corosync.conf and insert the following line anywhere inside the block:

clustername: myname

Do this on each node in the cluster and be sure to restart them before
continuing.

# mkfs.gfs2 -p lock_dlm -j 2 -t pcmk:web /dev/drbd1This will destroy any data on /dev/drbd1.
It appears to contain: data

Are you sure you want to proceed? [y/n] y

Blocksize:         4096
Device Size        1.00 GB (131072 blocks)Filesystem Size:      1.00 GB (131070 blocks)Journals:         2

Then (re)populate the new filesystem with data (web pages). For now
weâll create another variation on our home page.

8.5.Â Reconfigure Pacemaker for Active/Active
---------------------------------------------

8.5.1. Testing Recovery

Almost everything is in place. Recent versions of DRBD are capable of
operating in Primary/Primary mode and the filesystem weâre using is
cluster aware. All we need to do now is reconfigure the cluster to take
advantage of this. This will involve a number of changes, so weâll
again use interactive mode. # crm # cib new active Thereâs no point
making the services active on both locations if we canât reach them, so
lets first clone the IP address. Cloned IPaddr2 resources use an iptables
rule to ensure that each request only gets processed by one of the two
clone instances. The additional meta options tell the cluster how many
instances of the clone we want (one "request bucket" for each node) and
that if all other nodes fail, then the remaining node should hold all of
them. Otherwise the requests would be simply discarded.

# configure clone WebIP ClusterIP \    meta globally-unique="true" clone-max="2" clone-node-max="2"

Now we must tell the ClusterIP how to decide which requests are processed
by which hosts. To do this we must specify the clusterip_hash parameter.
Open the ClusterIP resource

# configure edit ClusterIP

And add the following to the params line

clusterip_hash="sourceip"

So that the complete definition looks like:

primitive ClusterIP ocf:heartbeat:IPaddr2 \
    params ip="192.168.122.101" cidr_netmask="32" clusterip_hash="sourceip" \
    op monitor interval="30s"

Here is the full transcript

# crm crm(live)# cib new activeINFO: active shadow CIB created

Notice how any constraints that referenced ClusterIP have been updated to
use WebIP instead. This is an additional benefit of using the crm shell.
Next we need to convert the filesystem and Apache resources into clones.
Again, the shell will automatically update any relevant constraints.

crm(active) # configure clone WebFSClone WebFScrm(active) # configure clone WebSiteClone WebSite

The last step is to tell the cluster that it is now allowed to promote
both instances to be Primary (aka. Master).

Note
----

TODO: Put one node into standby to demonstrate failover

------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15] A failure to do this can lead to what is called internal split-brain
- a situation where different parts of the stack disagree about whether
some nodes are alive or dead - which quickly leads to unnecessary
down-time and/or data corruption.


ChapterÂ 9.Â Configure STONITH
------------------------------

9.1. What Is STONITH

9.2. What STONITH Device Should You Use

9.3. Configuring STONITH

9.4. Example


9.1.Â What Is STONITH
---------------------

STONITH is an acronym for Shoot-The-Other-Node-In-The-Head and it
protects your data from being corrupted by rogue nodes or concurrent
access. Just because a node is unresponsive, this doesnât mean it
isnât accessing your data. The only way to be 100% sure that your data
is safe, is to use STONITH so we can be certain that the node is truly
offline, before allowing the data to be accessed from another node.
STONITH also has a role to play in the event that a clustered service
cannot be stopped. In this case, the cluster uses STONITH to force the
whole node offline, thereby making it safe to start the service
elsewhere.


9.2.Â What STONITH Device Should You Use
----------------------------------------

It is crucial that the STONITH device can allow the cluster to
differentiate between a node failure and a network one. The biggest
mistake people make in choosing a STONITH device is to use remote power
switch (such as many on-board IMPI controllers) that shares power with
the node it controls. In such cases, the cluster cannot be sure if the
node is really offline, or active and suffering from a network fault.
Likewise, any device that relies on the machine being active (such as
SSH-based "devices" used during testing) are inappropriate.


9.3.Â Configuring STONITH
-------------------------

  1.  Find the correct driver: stonith_admin --list-installed

  2.  Since every device is different, the parameters needed to configure
    it will vary. To find out the parameters associated with the device,
    run: stonith_admin --metadata --agent type

    The output should be XML formatted text containing additional
    parameter descriptions. We will endevor to make the output more
    friendly in a later version.  

  3.  Enter the shell crm Create an editable copy of the existing
    configuration cib new stonith Create a fencing resource containing a
    primitive resource with a class of stonith, a type of type and a
    parameter for each of the values returned in step 2: configure
    primitive â¦

  4.  If the device does not know how to fence nodes based on their
    uname, you may also need to set the special pcmk_host_map parameter.
    See man stonithd for details.

  5.  If the device does not support the list command, you may also need
    to set the special pcmk_host_list and/or pcmk_host_check parameters.
    See man stonithd for details.

  6.  If the device does not expect the victim to be specified with the
    port parameter, you may also need to set the special
    pcmk_host_argument parameter. See man stonithd for details.

  7.  Upload it into the CIB from the shell: cib commit stonith

  8.  Once the stonith resource is running, you can test it by executing:
    stonith_admin --reboot nodename. Although you might want to stop the
    cluster on that machine first.


9.4.Â Example
-------------

Assuming we have an chassis containing four nodes and an IPMI device
active on 10.0.0.1, then we would chose the fence_ipmilan driver in step
2 and obtain the following list of parameters

# stonith_admin --metadata -a fence_ipmilan

from which we would create a STONITH resource fragment that might look
like this

# crm crm(live)# cib new stonithINFO: stonith shadow CIB created
crm(stonith)# configure primitive impi-fencing stonith::fence_ipmilan \
 params pcmk_host_list="pcmk-1 pcmk-2" ipaddr=10.0.0.1 login=testuser passwd=abc123 \
 op monitor interval="60s"

And finally, since we disabled it earlier, we need to re-enable STONITH.
At this point we should have the following configuration.

crm(stonith)# configure property stonith-enabled="true"crm(stonith)# configure shownode pcmk-1

A.3.Â Cluster Options
---------------------

This is where the cluster automatically stores some information about the
cluster

  *  dc-version - the version (including upstream source-code hash) of
    Pacemaker used on the DC

  *  cluster-infrastructure - the cluster infrastructure being used
    (heartbeat or openais)

  *  expected-quorum-votes - the maximum number of nodes expected to be
    part of the cluster

and where the admin can set options that control the way the cluster
operates

  *  stonith-enabled=true - Make use of STONITH

  *  no-quorum-policy=ignore - Ignore loss of quorum and continue to host
    resources.

A.4.3.Â Service Address

Users of the services provided by the cluster require an unchanging
address with which to access it. Additionally, we cloned the address so
it will be active on both nodes. An iptables rule (created as part of the
resource agent) is used to ensure that each request only gets processed
by one of the two clone instances. The additional meta options tell the
cluster that we want two instances of the clone (one "request bucket" for
each node) and that if one node fails, then the remaining node should
hold both.

TODO: The RA should check for globally-unique=true when cloned


A.4.4.Â DRBD - Shared Storage

Here we define the DRBD service and specify which DRBD resource (from
drbd.conf) it should manage. We make it a master/slave resource and, in
order to have an active/active setup, allow both instances to be promoted
by specifying master-max=2. We also set the notify option so that the
cluster will tell DRBD agent when itâs peer changes state.

A.4.5.Â Cluster Filesystem

The cluster filesystem ensures that files are read and written correctly.
We need to specify the block device (provided by DRBD), where we want it
mounted and that we are using GFS2. Again it is a clone because it is
intended to be active on both nodes. The additional constraints ensure
that it can only be started on nodes with active gfs-control and drbd
instances.

primitive WebFS ocf:heartbeat:Filesystem \
    params device="/dev/drbd/by-res/wwwdata" directory="/var/www/html" fstype="gfs2"
clone WebFSClone WebFS
colocation WebFS-with-gfs-control inf: WebFSClone gfs-clone
colocation fs_on_drbd inf: WebFSClone WebDataClone:Master
order WebFS-after-WebData inf: WebDataClone:promote WebFSClone:start
order start-WebFS-after-gfs-control inf: gfs-clone WebFSClone


A.4.6.Â Apache

Lastly we have the actual service, Apache. We need only tell the cluster
where to find itâs main configuration file and restrict it to running
on nodes that have the required filesystem mounted and the IP address
active.

primitive WebSite ocf:heartbeat:apache \
    params configfile="/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf" \
    op monitor interval="1min"
clone WebSiteClone WebSite
