Resource Agents

-Resource Agent Actions
-######################
+
+Action Completion
+#################
If one resource depends on another resource via constraints, the cluster will
interpret an expected result as sufficient to continue with dependent actions.
This may cause timing issues if the resource agent start returns before the
service is not only launched but fully ready to perform its function, or if the
resource agent stop returns before the service has fully released all its
claims on system resources. At a minimum, the start or stop should not return
before a status command would return the expected (started or stopped) result.

OCF Resource Agents are found in ``/usr/lib/ocf/resource.d/$PROVIDER``
When creating your own agents, you are encouraged to create a new directory
under ``/usr/lib/ocf/resource.d/`` so that they are not confused with (or
overwritten by) the agents shipped by existing providers.
So, for example, if you choose the provider name of big-corp and want a new
resource named big-app, you would create a resource agent called
``/usr/lib/ocf/resource.d/big-corp/big-app`` and define a resource:
.. code-block: xml
<primitive id="custom-app" class="ocf" provider="big-corp" type="big-app"/>

One action specified in the OCF specs, ``recover``, is not currently used by
the cluster. It is intended to be a variant of the ``start`` action that tries
to recover a resource locally.

If you create a new OCF resource agent, use `ocf-tester` to verify that the
agent complies with the OCF standard properly.

How are OCF Return Codes Interpreted?
_____________________________________
The first thing the cluster does is to check the return code against
the expected result. If the result does not match the expected value,
then the operation is considered to have failed, and recovery action is
initiated.
There are three types of failure recovery:

counterintuitive, even actions that return 0 (aka. ``OCF_SUCCESS``) can be
considered to have failed, if 0 was not the expected return value.

Exceptions to the recovery handling described above:
* Probes (non-recurring monitor actions) that find a resource active
(or in master mode) will not result in recovery action unless it is
also found active elsewhere.
* The recovery action taken when a resource is found active more than
once is determined by the resource's ``multiple-active`` property.
* Recurring actions that return ``OCF_ERR_UNIMPLEMENTED``
do not cause any type of recovery.

LSB Resource Agents (Init Scripts)
##################################
LSB Compliance
______________
The relevant part of the
`LSB specifications <http://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/lsb.shtml>`_
includes a description of all the return codes listed here.
Assuming `some_service` is configured correctly and currently
inactive, the following sequence will help you determine if it is
LSB-compatible:
#. Start (stopped):
.. code-block:: none
# /etc/init.d/some_service start ; echo "result: $?"
* Did the service start?
* Did the echo command print ``result: 0`` (in addition to the init script's
usual output)?
#. Status (running):
.. code-block:: none
# /etc/init.d/some_service status ; echo "result: $?"
* Did the script accept the command?
* Did the script indicate the service was running?
* Did the echo command print ``result: 0`` (in addition to the init script's
usual output)?
#. Start (running):
.. code-block:: none
# /etc/init.d/some_service start ; echo "result: $?"
* Is the service still running?
* Did the echo command print ``result: 0`` (in addition to the init
script's usual output)?
#. Stop (running):
.. code-block:: none
# /etc/init.d/some_service stop ; echo "result: $?"
* Was the service stopped?
* Did the echo command print ``result: 0`` (in addition to the init
script's usual output)?
#. Status (stopped):
.. code-block:: none
# /etc/init.d/some_service status ; echo "result: $?"
* Did the script accept the command?
* Did the script indicate the service was not running?
* Did the echo command print ``result: 3`` (in addition to the init
script's usual output)?
#. Stop (stopped):
.. code-block:: none
# /etc/init.d/some_service stop ; echo "result: $?"
* Is the service still stopped?
* Did the echo command print ``result: 0`` (in addition to the init
script's usual output)?
#. Status (failed):
This step is not readily testable and relies on manual inspection of the script.
The script can use one of the error codes (other than 3) listed in the
LSB spec to indicate that it is active but failed. This tells the
cluster that before moving the resource to another node, it needs to
stop it on the existing one first.
If the answer to any of the above questions is no, then the script is not
LSB-compliant. Your options are then to either fix the script or write an OCF
agent based on the existing script.

Adding a New Corosync Node
__________________________

To add a new node:
#. Install Corosync and Pacemaker on the new host.
#. Copy ``/etc/corosync/corosync.conf`` and ``/etc/corosync/authkey`` (if it
exists) from an existing node. You may need to modify the ``mcastaddr``
option to match the new node's IP address.
#. Start the cluster software on the new host. If a log message containing
"Invalid digest" appears from Corosync, the keys are not consistent between
the machines.

Removing a Corosync Node
________________________
-.. index::
- pair: corosync; remove cluster node

Because the messaging and membership layers are the authoritative
source for cluster nodes, deleting them from the CIB is not a complete
solution. First, one must arrange for corosync to forget about the
node (**pcmk-1** in the example below).
#. Stop the cluster on the host to be removed. How to do this will vary with
your operating system and installed versions of cluster software, for example,
``pcs cluster stop`` if you are using pcs for cluster management.
#. From one of the remaining active cluster nodes, tell Pacemaker to forget
about the removed host, which will also delete the node from the CIB:

# crm_node -R pcmk-1

To replace an existing cluster node:
#. Make sure the old node is completely stopped.
#. Give the new machine the same hostname and IP address as the old one.
#. Follow the procedure above for adding a node.

Configuring Pacemaker
---------------------
Pacemaker's configuration, the CIB, is stored in XML format. Cluster
administrators have multiple options for modifying the configuration either via
the XML, or at a more abstract (and easier for humans to understand) level.
Pacemaker reacts to configuration changes as soon as they are saved.
Pacemaker's command-line tools and most higher-level tools provide the ability
to batch changes together and commit them at once, rather than make a series of
small changes, which could cause avoid unnecessary actions as Pacemaker
responds to each change individually.
Pacemaker tracks revisions to the configuration and will reject any update
older than the current revision. Thus, it is a good idea to serialize all
changes to the configuration. Avoid attempting simultaneous changes, whether on
the same node or different nodes, and whether manually or using some automated
configuration tool.
.. note::
It is not necessary to update the configuration on all cluster nodes.
Pacemaker immediately synchronizes changes to all active members of the
cluster. To reduce bandwidth, the cluster only broadcasts the incremental
updates that result from your changes and uses checksums to ensure that each
copy is consistent.
Configuration Using Higher-level Tools
______________________________________
Most users will benefit from using higher-level tools provided by projects
separate from Pacemaker. Some of the most commonly used include the crm shell,
hawk, and pcs. [#]_
See those projects' documentation for details on how to configure Pacemaker
using them.
Configuration Using Pacemaker's Command-Line Tools
__________________________________________________
Pacemaker provides lower-level, command-line tools to manage the cluster. Most
configuration tasks can be performed with these tools, without needing any XML
knowledge.
To enable STONITH for example, one could run:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_attribute --name stonith-enabled --update 1
Or, to check whether **node1** is allowed to run resources, there is:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_standby --query --node node1
Or, to change the failure threshold of **my-test-rsc**, one can use:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_resource -r my-test-rsc --set-parameter migration-threshold --parameter-value 3 --meta
Examples of using these tools for specific cases will be given throughout this
document where appropriate. See the man pages for further details.
See :ref:`cibadmin` for how to edit the CIB using XML.
See :ref:`crm_shadow` for a way to make a series of changes, then commit them
all at once to the live cluster.

Working with CIB Properties
###########################
Although these fields can be written to by the user, in
most cases the cluster will overwrite any values specified by the
user with the "correct" ones.
To change the ones that can be specified by the user, for example
``admin_epoch``, one should use:
.. code-block:: none
# cibadmin --modify --xml-text '<cib admin_epoch="42"/>'
A complete set of CIB properties will look something like this:
.. topic:: XML attributes set for a cib element
.. code-block:: xml
<cib crm_feature_set="3.0.7" validate-with="pacemaker-1.2"
admin_epoch="42" epoch="116" num_updates="1"

Querying and Setting Cluster Options
####################################
-.. index::
- pair: cluster option; querying
- pair: cluster option; setting
-
Cluster options can be queried and modified using the ``crm_attribute`` tool.
To get the current value of ``cluster-delay``, you can run:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_attribute --query --name cluster-delay
which is more simply written as
.. code-block:: none
# crm_attribute -G -n cluster-delay
If a value is found, you'll see a result like this:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_attribute -G -n cluster-delay
scope=crm_config name=cluster-delay value=60s
If no value is found, the tool will display an error:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_attribute -G -n clusta-deway
scope=crm_config name=clusta-deway value=(null)
Error performing operation: No such device or address
To use a different value (for example, 30 seconds), simply run:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_attribute --name cluster-delay --update 30s
To go back to the cluster's default value, you can delete the value, for example:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_attribute --name cluster-delay --delete
Deleted crm_config option: id=cib-bootstrap-options-cluster-delay name=cluster-delay
When Options are Listed More Than Once
______________________________________
If you ever see something like the following, it means that the option you're
modifying is present more than once.
.. topic:: Deleting an option that is listed twice
.. code-block:: none
# crm_attribute --name batch-limit --delete
Multiple attributes match name=batch-limit in crm_config:
Value: 50 (set=cib-bootstrap-options, id=cib-bootstrap-options-batch-limit)
Value: 100 (set=custom, id=custom-batch-limit)
Please choose from one of the matches above and supply the 'id' with --id
In such cases, follow the on-screen instructions to perform the requested
action. To determine which value is currently being used by the cluster, refer
to the "Rules" chapter of *Pacemaker Explained*.

################################
-.. index::

Provided Pacemaker is installed on a machine, it is possible to connect to the
cluster even if the machine itself is not in the same cluster. To do this, one
simply sets up a number of environment variables and runs the same commands as
when working on a cluster node.

So, if **c001n01** is an active cluster node and is listening on port 1234
for connections, and **someuser** is a member of the **haclient** group,
then the following would prompt for **someuser**'s password and return
the cluster's current configuration:
.. code-block:: none
# export CIB_port=1234; export CIB_server=c001n01; export CIB_user=someuser;
# cibadmin -Q
For security reasons, the cluster does not listen for remote connections by
default. If you wish to allow remote access, you need to set the
``remote-tls-port`` (encrypted) or ``remote-clear-port`` (unencrypted) CIB
properties (i.e., those kept in the ``cib`` tag, like ``num_updates`` and
``epoch``).

Enabling Pacemaker For Corosync version 2 and greater
_____________________________________________________
High-level cluster management tools are available that can configure
corosync for you. This document focuses on the lower-level details
if you want to configure corosync yourself.
Corosync configuration is normally located in
``/etc/corosync/corosync.conf``.
.. topic:: Corosync configuration file for two nodes **myhost1** and **myhost2**
.. code-block:: none

}
}

}
node {
ring0_addr: myhost3
nodeid: 3
}
}
quorum {
provider: corosync_votequorum
}
logging {
to_syslog: yes
}
In the above examples, the ``totem`` section defines what protocol version and
options (including encryption) to use, [#]_
and gives the cluster a unique name (``mycluster`` in these examples).
The ``node`` section lists the nodes in this cluster.
The ``quorum`` section defines how the cluster uses quorum. The important thing
is that two-node clusters must be handled specially, so ``two_node: 1`` must be
defined for two-node clusters (it will be ignored for clusters of any other
size).
The ``logging`` section should be self-explanatory.

Controlling Command Line Output
###############################
Some of the pacemaker command line utilities have been converted to a new
output system. Among these tools are ``crm_mon`` and ``stonith_admin``. This
is an ongoing project, and more tools will be converted over time. This system
lets you control the formatting of output with ``--output-as=`` and the
destination of output with ``--output-to=``.
The available formats vary by tool, but at least plain text and XML are
supported by all tools that use the new system. The default format is plain
text. The default destination is stdout but can be redirected to any file.
Some formats support command line options for changing the style of the output.
For instance:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_mon --help-output
Usage:
crm_mon [OPTION?]
Provides a summary of cluster's current state.
Outputs varying levels of detail in a number of different formats.
Output Options:
--output-as=FORMAT Specify output format as one of: console (default), html, text, xml
--output-to=DEST Specify file name for output (or "-" for stdout)
--html-cgi Add text needed to use output in a CGI program
--html-stylesheet=URI Link to an external CSS stylesheet
--html-title=TITLE Page title
--text-fancy Use more highly formatted output

The ``crm_mon`` utility displays the current state of an active cluster. It can
show the cluster status organized by node or by resource, and can be used in
either single-shot or dynamically updating mode. It can also display operations
performed and information about failures.
Using this tool, you can examine the state of the cluster for irregularities,
and see how it responds when you cause or simulate failures.
See the manual page or the output of ``crm_mon --help`` for a full description
of its many options.

As mentioned in an earlier chapter, the DC is the node is where decisions are
made. The cluster elects a node to be DC as needed. The only significance of
the choice of DC to an administrator is the fact that its logs will have the
most information about why decisions were made.

+Styling crm_mon HTML output
+___________________________
+
Various parts of ``crm_mon``'s HTML output have a CSS class associated with
them. Not everything does, but some of the most interesting portions do. In
the following example, the status of each node has an ``online`` class and the
details of each resource have an ``rsc-ok`` class.
.. code-block:: html
<h2>Node List</h2>
<ul>
<li>
<span>Node: cluster01</span><span class="online"> online</span>
</li>
<li><ul><li><span class="rsc-ok">ping (ocf::pacemaker:ping): Started</span></li></ul></li>
<li>
<span>Node: cluster02</span><span class="online"> online</span>
</li>
<li><ul><li><span class="rsc-ok">ping (ocf::pacemaker:ping): Started</span></li></ul></li>
</ul>
By default, a stylesheet for styling these classes is included in the head of
the HTML output. The relevant portions of this stylesheet that would be used
in the above example is:
.. code-block:: css
<style>
.online { color: green }
.rsc-ok { color: green }
</style>
If you want to override some or all of the styling, simply create your own
stylesheet, place it on a web server, and pass ``--html-stylesheet=<URL>``
to ``crm_mon``. The link is added after the default stylesheet, so your
changes take precedence. You don't need to duplicate the entire default.
Only include what you want to change.

Edit the CIB XML with cibadmin
##############################
-.. index::
- pair: command-line tool; cibadmin
-
The most flexible tool for modifying the configuration is Pacemaker's
``cibadmin`` command. With ``cibadmin``, you can query, add, remove, update
or replace any part of the configuration. All changes take effect immediately,
so there is no need to perform a reload-like operation.
The simplest way of using ``cibadmin`` is to use it to save the current
configuration to a temporary file, edit that file with your favorite
text or XML editor, and then upload the revised configuration.
.. topic:: Safely using an editor to modify the cluster configuration
.. code-block:: none
# cibadmin --query > tmp.xml
# vi tmp.xml
# cibadmin --replace --xml-file tmp.xml
Some of the better XML editors can make use of a RELAX NG schema to
help make sure any changes you make are valid. The schema describing
the configuration can be found in ``pacemaker.rng``, which may be
deployed in a location such as ``/usr/share/pacemaker`` depending on your
operating system distribution and how you installed the software.
If you want to modify just one section of the configuration, you can
query and replace just that section to avoid modifying any others.
.. topic:: Safely using an editor to modify only the resources section
.. code-block:: none
# cibadmin --query --scope resources > tmp.xml
# vi tmp.xml
# cibadmin --replace --scope resources --xml-file tmp.xml
To quickly delete a part of the configuration, identify the object you wish to
delete by XML tag and id. For example, you might search the CIB for all
STONITH-related configuration:
.. topic:: Searching for STONITH-related configuration items
.. code-block:: none
# cibadmin --query | grep stonith
<nvpair id="cib-bootstrap-options-stonith-action" name="stonith-action" value="reboot"/>
<nvpair id="cib-bootstrap-options-stonith-enabled" name="stonith-enabled" value="1"/>
<primitive id="child_DoFencing" class="stonith" type="external/vmware">
<lrm_resource id="child_DoFencing:0" type="external/vmware" class="stonith">
<lrm_resource id="child_DoFencing:0" type="external/vmware" class="stonith">

<lrm_resource id="child_DoFencing:0" type="external/vmware" class="stonith">
<lrm_resource id="child_DoFencing:3" type="external/vmware" class="stonith">
If you wanted to delete the ``primitive`` tag with id ``child_DoFencing``,
you would run:
.. code-block:: none
# cibadmin --delete --xml-text '<primitive id="child_DoFencing"/>'
See the cibadmin man page for more options.
.. warning::
Never edit the live ``cib.xml`` file directly. Pacemaker will detect such
changes and refuse to use the configuration.

Batch Configuration Changes with crm_shadow

-
Often, it is desirable to preview the effects of a series of configuration
changes before updating the live configuration all at once. For this purpose,
``crm_shadow`` creates a "shadow" copy of the configuration and arranges for
all the command-line tools to use it.
To begin, simply invoke ``crm_shadow --create`` with a name of your choice,
and follow the simple on-screen instructions. Shadow copies are identified with
a name to make it possible to have more than one.
.. warning::
Read this section and the on-screen instructions carefully; failure to do so
could result in destroying the cluster's active configuration!

.. code-block:: none
# crm_shadow --create test

Type Ctrl-D to exit the crm_shadow shell
shadow[test]:

From this point on, all cluster commands will automatically use the shadow copy
instead of talking to the cluster's active configuration. Once you have
finished experimenting, you can either make the changes active via the
``--commit`` option, or discard them using the ``--delete`` option. Again, be
sure to follow the on-screen instructions carefully!

Simulate Cluster Activity with crm_simulate
###########################################
-.. index::
- pair: command-line tool; crm_simulate
-
The command-line tool `crm_simulate` shows the results of the same logic
the cluster itself uses to respond to a particular cluster configuration and
status.
As always, the man page is the primary documentation, and should be consulted
for further details. This section aims for a better conceptual explanation and
practical examples.
Replaying cluster decision-making logic
_______________________________________
At any given time, one node in a Pacemaker cluster will be elected DC, and that
node will run Pacemaker's scheduler to make decisions.
Each time decisions need to be made (a "transition"), the DC will have log
messages like "Calculated transition ... saving inputs in ..." with a file
name. You can grab the named file and replay the cluster logic to see why
particular decisions were made. The file contains the live cluster
configuration at that moment, so you can also look at it directly to see the
value of node attributes, etc., at that time.
The simplest usage is (replacing $FILENAME with the actual file name):
.. topic:: Simulate cluster response to a given CIB
.. code-block:: none
# crm_simulate --simulate --xml-file $FILENAME
That will show the cluster state when the process started, the actions that
need to be taken ("Transition Summary"), and the resulting cluster state if the
actions succeed. Most actions will have a brief description of why they were
required.
The transition inputs may be compressed. ``crm_simulate`` can handle these
compressed files directly, though if you want to edit the file, you'll need to
uncompress it first.
You can do the same simulation for the live cluster configuration at the
current moment. This is useful mainly when using ``crm_shadow`` to create a
sandbox version of the CIB; the ``--live-check`` option will use the shadow CIB
if one is in effect.
.. topic:: Simulate cluster response to current live CIB or shadow CIB
.. code-block:: none
# crm_simulate --simulate --live-check
Why decisions were made
_______________________
To get further insight into the "why", it gets user-unfriendly very quickly. If
you add the ``--show-scores`` option, you will also see all the scores that
went into the decision-making. The node with the highest cumulative score for a
resource will run it. You can look for ``-INFINITY`` scores in particular to
see where complete bans came into effect.
You can also add ``-VVVV`` to get more detailed messages about what's happening
under the hood. You can add up to two more V's even, but that's usually useful
only if you're a masochist or tracing through the source code.
Visualizing the action sequence
_______________________________
Another handy feature is the ability to generate a visual graph of the actions
needed, using the ``--dot-file`` option. This relies on the separate
Graphviz [#]_ project.
.. topic:: Generate a visual graph of cluster actions from a saved CIB
.. code-block:: none
# crm_simulate --simulate --xml-file $FILENAME --dot-file $FILENAME.dot
# dot $FILENAME.dot -Tsvg > $FILENAME.svg
``$FILENAME.dot`` will contain a GraphViz representation of the cluster's
response to your changes, including all actions with their ordering
dependencies.
``$FILENAME.svg`` will be the same information in a standard graphical format
that you can view in your browser or other app of choice. You could, of course,
use other ``dot`` options to generate other formats.
How to interpret the graphical output:
* Bubbles indicate actions, and arrows indicate ordering dependencies
* Resource actions have text of the form
``<RESOURCE>_<ACTION>_<INTERVAL_IN_MS> <NODE>`` indicating that the
specified action will be executed for the specified resource on the
specified node, once if interval is 0 or at specified recurring interval
otherwise
* Actions with black text will be sent to the executor (that is, the
appropriate agent will be invoked)
* Actions with orange text are "pseudo" actions that the cluster uses
internally for ordering but require no real activity
* Actions with a solid green border are part of the transition (that is, the
cluster will attempt to execute them in the given order -- though a
transition can be interrupted by action failure or new events)
* Dashed arrows indicate dependencies that are not present in the transition
graph
* Actions with a dashed border will not be executed. If the dashed border is
blue, the cluster does not feel the action needs to be executed. If the
dashed border is red, the cluster would like to execute the action but
cannot. Any actions depending on an action with a dashed border will not be
able to execute.
* Loops should not happen, and should be reported as a bug if found.

In the above example, it appears that a new node, ``pcmk-2``, has come online
and that the cluster is checking to make sure ``rsc1``, ``rsc2`` and ``rsc3``
are not already running there (indicated by the ``rscN_monitor_0`` entries).
Once it did that, and assuming the resources were not active there, it would
have liked to stop ``rsc1`` and ``rsc2`` on ``pcmk-1`` and move them to
``pcmk-2``. However, there appears to be some problem and the cluster cannot or
is not permitted to perform the stop actions which implies it also cannot
perform the start actions. For some reason, the cluster does not want to start
``rsc3`` anywhere.

What-if scenarios
_________________
You can make changes to the saved or shadow CIB and simulate it again, to see
how Pacemaker would react differently. You can edit the XML by hand, use
command-line tools such as ``cibadmin`` with either a shadow CIB or the
``CIB_file`` environment variable set to the filename, or use higher-level tool
support (see the man pages of the specific tool you're using for how to perform
actions on a saved CIB file rather than the live CIB).
You can also inject node failures and/or action failures into the simulation;
see the ``crm_simulate`` man page for more details.
This capability is useful when using a shadow CIB to edit the configuration.
Before committing the changes to the live cluster with ``crm_shadow --commit``,
you can use ``crm_simulate`` to see how the cluster will react to the changes.

Manage Node Attributes, Cluster Options and Defaults with crm_attribute and attrd_updater
#########################################################################################
-.. index::
- pair: command-line tool; attrd_updater
- pair: command-line tool; crm_attribute
-
``crm_attribute`` and ``attrd_updater`` are confusingly similar tools with subtle
differences.
``attrd_updater`` can query and update node attributes. ``crm_attribute`` can query
and update not only node attributes, but also cluster options, resource
defaults, and operation defaults.
To understand the differences, it helps to understand the various types of node
attribute.
.. table:: **Types of Node Attributes**
+-----------+----------+-------------------+------------------+----------------+----------------+
| Type | Recorded | Recorded in | Survive full | Manageable by | Manageable by |
| | in CIB? | attribute manager | cluster restart? | crm_attribute? | attrd_updater? |
| | | memory? | | | |
+===========+==========+===================+==================+================+================+
| permanent | yes | no | yes | yes | no |
+-----------+----------+-------------------+------------------+----------------+----------------+
| transient | yes | yes | no | yes | yes |
+-----------+----------+-------------------+------------------+----------------+----------------+
| private | no | yes | no | no | yes |
+-----------+----------+-------------------+------------------+----------------+----------------+
As you can see from the table above, ``crm_attribute`` can manage permanent and
transient node attributes, while ``attrd_updater`` can manage transient and
private node attributes.
The difference between the two tools lies mainly in *how* they update node
attributes: ``attrd_updater`` always contacts the Pacemaker attribute manager
directly, while ``crm_attribute`` will contact the attribute manager only for
transient node attributes, and will instead modify the CIB directly for
permanent node attributes (and for transient node attributes when unable to
contact the attribute manager).
By contacting the attribute manager directly, ``attrd_updater`` can change
an attribute's "dampening" (whether changes are immediately flushed to the CIB
or after a specified amount of time, to minimize disk writes for frequent
changes), set private node attributes (which are never written to the CIB), and
set attributes for nodes that don't yet exist.
By modifying the CIB directly, ``crm_attribute`` can set permanent node
attributes (which are only in the CIB and not managed by the attribute
manager), and can be used with saved CIB files and shadow CIBs.
However a transient node attribute is set, it is synchronized between the CIB
and the attribute manager, on all nodes.

Troubleshooting Cluster Problems
--------------------------------
+.. index:: logging, pacemaker.log
+
Logging
#######
Pacemaker by default logs messages of notice severity and higher to the system
log, and messages of info severity and higher to the detail log, which by
default is ``/var/log/pacemaker/pacemaker.log``.
Logging options can be controlled via environment variables at Pacemaker
start-up. Where these are set varies by operating system (often
``/etc/sysconfig/pacemaker`` or ``/etc/default/pacemaker``).
Because cluster problems are often highly complex, involving multiple machines,
cluster daemons, and managed services, Pacemaker logs rather verbosely to
provide as much context as possible. It is an ongoing priority to make these
logs more user-friendly, but by necessity there is a lot of obscure, low-level
information that can make them difficult to follow.
The default log rotation configuration shipped with Pacemaker (typically
installed in ``/etc/logrotate.d/pacemaker``) rotates the log when it reaches
100MB in size, or weekly, whichever comes first.
If you configure debug or (Heaven forbid) trace-level logging, the logs can
grow enormous quite quickly. Because rotated logs are by default named with the
year, month, and day only, this can cause name collisions if your logs exceed
100MB in a single day. You can add ``dateformat -%Y%m%d-%H`` to the rotation
configuration to avoid this.
+.. index:: transition
+
Transitions
###########
A key concept in understanding how a Pacemaker cluster functions is a
*transition*. A transition is a set of actions that need to be taken to bring
the cluster from its current state to the desired state (as expressed by the
configuration).
Whenever a relevant event happens (a node joining or leaving the cluster,
a resource failing, etc.), the controller will ask the scheduler to recalculate
the status of the cluster, which generates a new transition. The controller
then performs the actions in the transition in the proper order.
Each transition can be identified in the logs by a line like:
.. code-block: none
notice: Calculated transition 19, saving inputs in /var/lib/pacemaker/pengine/pe-input-1463.bz2
The file listed as the "inputs" is a snapshot of the cluster configuration and
state at that moment (the CIB). This file can help determine why particular
actions were scheduled. The ``crm_simulate`` command, described in
:ref:`crm_simulate`, can be used to replay the file.
Further Information About Troubleshooting
#########################################
Andrew Beekhof wrote a series of articles about troubleshooting in his blog,
`The Cluster Guy <http://blog.clusterlabs.org/>`_:
* `Debugging Pacemaker <http://blog.clusterlabs.org/blog/2013/debugging-pacemaker>`_
* `Debugging the Policy Engine <http://blog.clusterlabs.org/blog/2013/debugging-pengine>`_
* `Pacemaker Logging <http://blog.clusterlabs.org/blog/2013/pacemaker-logging>`_
The articles were written for an earlier version of Pacemaker, so many of the
specific names and log messages to look for have changed, but the concepts are
still valid.

Upgrading a Pacemaker Cluster

+.. index:: version
+
Pacemaker Versioning
####################
Pacemaker has an overall release version, plus separate version numbers for
certain internal components.
+.. index::
+ single: version; release
+
* **Pacemaker release version:** This version consists of three numbers
(*x.y.z*).
The major version number (the *x* in *x.y.z*) increases when at least some
rolling upgrades are not possible from the previous major version. For example,
a rolling upgrade from 1.0.8 to 1.1.15 should always be supported, but a
rolling upgrade from 1.0.8 to 2.0.0 may not be possible.
The minor version (the *y* in *x.y.z*) increases when there are significant
changes in cluster default behavior, tool behavior, and/or the API interface
(for software that utilizes Pacemaker libraries). The main benefit is to alert
you to pay closer attention to the release notes, to see if you might be
affected.
The release counter (the *z* in *x.y.z*) is increased with all public releases
of Pacemaker, which typically include both bug fixes and new features.
+.. index::
+ single: feature set
+ single: version; feature set
+
* **CRM feature set:** This version number applies to the communication between
full cluster nodes, and is used to avoid problems in mixed-version clusters.
The major version number increases when nodes with different versions would not
work (rolling upgrades are not allowed). The minor version number increases
when mixed-version clusters are allowed only during rolling upgrades. The
minor-minor version number is ignored, but allows resource agents to detect
cluster support for various features. [#]_
Pacemaker ensures that the longest-running node is the cluster's DC. This
ensures new features are not enabled until all nodes are upgraded to support
them.
+.. index::
+ single: version; Pacemaker Remote protocol
+
* **Pacemaker Remote protocol version:** This version applies to communication
between a Pacemaker Remote node and the cluster. It increases when an older
cluster node would have problems hosting the connection to a newer
Pacemaker Remote node. To avoid these problems, Pacemaker Remote nodes will
accept connections only from cluster nodes with the same or newer
Pacemaker Remote protocol version.
Unlike with CRM feature set differences between full cluster nodes,
mixed Pacemaker Remote protocol versions between Pacemaker Remote nodes and
full cluster nodes are fine, as long as the Pacemaker Remote nodes have the
older version. This can be useful, for example, to host a legacy application
in an older operating system version used as a Pacemaker Remote node.
+.. index::
+ single: version; XML schema
+
* **XML schema version:** Pacemaker’s configuration syntax — what's allowed in
the Configuration Information Base (CIB) — has its own version. This allows
the configuration syntax to evolve over time while still allowing clusters
with older configurations to work without change.

Complete Cluster Shutdown
_________________________
In this scenario, one shuts down all cluster nodes and resources,
then upgrades all the nodes before restarting the cluster.
#. On each node:
a. Shutdown the cluster software (pacemaker and the messaging layer).
#. Upgrade the Pacemaker software. This may also include upgrading the
messaging layer and/or the underlying operating system.
#. Check the configuration with the ``crm_verify`` tool.
#. On each node:
a. Start the cluster software.
Currently, only Corosync version 2 and greater is supported as the cluster
layer, but if another stack is supported in the future, the stack does not
need to be the same one before the upgrade.
One variation of this approach is to build a new cluster on new hosts.
This allows the new version to be tested beforehand, and minimizes downtime by
having the new nodes ready to be placed in production as soon as the old nodes
are shut down.
+
+.. index::
+ single: upgrade; rolling upgrade
+
Rolling (node by node)
______________________
In this scenario, each node is removed from the cluster, upgraded, and then
brought back online, until all nodes are running the newest version.
Special considerations when planning a rolling upgrade:
* If you plan to upgrade other cluster software -- such as the messaging layer --
at the same time, consult that software's documentation for its compatibility
with a rolling upgrade.
* If the major version number is changing in the Pacemaker version you are
upgrading to, a rolling upgrade may not be possible. Read the new version's
release notes (as well the information here) for what limitations may exist.
* If the CRM feature set is changing in the Pacemaker version you are upgrading
to, you should run a mixed-version cluster only during a small rolling
upgrade window. If one of the older nodes drops out of the cluster for any
reason, it will not be able to rejoin until it is upgraded.
* If the Pacemaker Remote protocol version is changing, all cluster nodes
should be upgraded before upgrading any Pacemaker Remote nodes.
See the ClusterLabs wiki's
`release calendar <https://wiki.clusterlabs.org/wiki/ReleaseCalendar>`_
to figure out whether the CRM feature set and/or Pacemaker Remote protocol
version changed between the the Pacemaker release versions in your rolling
upgrade.
To perform a rolling upgrade, on each node in turn:
#. Put the node into standby mode, and wait for any active resources
to be moved cleanly to another node. (This step is optional, but
allows you to deal with any resource issues before the upgrade.)
#. Shutdown the cluster software (pacemaker and the messaging layer) on the node.
#. Upgrade the Pacemaker software. This may also include upgrading the
messaging layer and/or the underlying operating system.
#. If this is the first node to be upgraded, check the configuration
with the ``crm_verify`` tool.
#. Start the messaging layer.
This must be the same messaging layer (currently only Corosync version 2 and
greater is supported) that the rest of the cluster is using.
.. note::
Even if a rolling upgrade from the current version of the cluster to the
newest version is not directly possible, it may be possible to perform a
rolling upgrade in multiple steps, by upgrading to an intermediate version
first.
.. table:: **Version Compatibility Table**
+-------------------------+---------------------------+
| Version being Installed | Oldest Compatible Version |
+=========================+===========================+
| Pacemaker 2.y.z | Pacemaker 1.1.11 [#]_ |

| Pacemaker 1.y.z | Pacemaker 1.0.0 |
+-------------------------+---------------------------+
| Pacemaker 0.7.z | Pacemaker 0.6.z |
+-------------------------+---------------------------+
+.. index::
+ single: upgrade; detach and reattach
+
Detach and Reattach
___________________
The reattach method is a variant of a complete cluster shutdown, where the
resources are left active and get re-detected when the cluster is restarted.
This method may not be used if the cluster contains any Pacemaker Remote nodes.
#. Tell the cluster to stop managing services. This is required to allow the
services to remain active after the cluster shuts down.
.. code-block:: none
# crm_attribute --name maintenance-mode --update true
#. On each node, shutdown the cluster software (pacemaker and the messaging
layer), and upgrade the Pacemaker software. This may also include upgrading
the messaging layer. While the underlying operating system may be upgraded
at the same time, that will be more likely to cause outages in the detached
services (certainly, if a reboot is required).
#. Check the configuration with the ``crm_verify`` tool.
#. On each node, start the cluster software.
Currently, only Corosync version 2 and greater is supported as the cluster
layer, but if another stack is supported in the future, the stack does not
need to be the same one before the upgrade.
#. Verify that the cluster re-detected all resources correctly.
#. Allow the cluster to resume managing resources again:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_attribute --name maintenance-mode --delete
.. note::
While the goal of the detach-and-reattach method is to avoid disturbing
running services, resources may still move after the upgrade if any
resource's location is governed by a rule based on transient node
attributes. Transient node attributes are erased when the node leaves the
cluster. A common example is using the ``ocf:pacemaker:ping`` resource to
set a node attribute used to locate other resources.
+.. index::
+ pair: upgrade; CIB
+
Upgrading the Configuration
###########################
-.. index::
- pair: upgrading; configuration
-
The CIB schema version can change from one Pacemaker version to another.
After cluster software is upgraded, the cluster will continue to use the older
schema version that it was previously using. This can be useful, for example,
when administrators have written tools that modify the configuration, and are
based on the older syntax. [#]_
However, when using an older syntax, new features may be unavailable, and there
is a performance impact, since the cluster must do a non-persistent
configuration upgrade before each transition. So while using the old syntax is
possible, it is not advisable to continue using it indefinitely.
Even if you wish to continue using the old syntax, it is a good idea to
follow the upgrade procedure outlined below, except for the last step, to ensure
that the new software has no problems with your existing configuration (since it
will perform much the same task internally).
If you are brave, it is sufficient simply to run ``cibadmin --upgrade``.
A more cautious approach would proceed like this:
#. Create a shadow copy of the configuration. The later commands will
automatically operate on this copy, rather than the live configuration.
.. code-block:: none
# crm_shadow --create shadow
+.. index::
+ single: configuration; verify
+
#. Verify the configuration is valid with the new software (which may be
stricter about syntax mistakes, or may have dropped support for deprecated
features):
- .. index::
- pair: verify; configuration
-
.. code-block:: none
# crm_verify --live-check
#. Fix any errors or warnings.
#. Perform the upgrade:
.. code-block:: none
# cibadmin --upgrade
#. If this step fails, there are three main possibilities:
a. The configuration was not valid to start with (did you do steps 2 and
3?).
#. The transformation failed; `report a bug <https://bugs.clusterlabs.org/>`_.
#. The transformation was successful but produced an invalid result.
If the result of the transformation is invalid, you may see a number of
errors from the validation library. If these are not helpful, visit the
`Validation FAQ wiki page <https://wiki.clusterlabs.org/wiki/Validation_FAQ>`_
and/or try the manual upgrade procedure described below.
#. Check the changes:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_shadow --diff
If at this point there is anything about the upgrade that you wish to
fine-tune (for example, to change some of the automatic IDs), now is the
time to do so:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_shadow --edit
This will open the configuration in your favorite editor (whichever is
specified by the standard ``$EDITOR`` environment variable).
#. Preview how the cluster will react:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_simulate --live-check --save-dotfile shadow.dot -S
# dot -Tsvg shadow.dot -o shadow.svg
You can then view shadow.svg with any compatible image viewer or web
browser. Verify that either no resource actions will occur or that you are
happy with any that are scheduled. If the output contains actions you do
not expect (possibly due to changes to the score calculations), you may need
to make further manual changes. See :ref:`crm_simulate` for further details
on how to interpret the output of ``crm_simulate`` and ``dot``.
#. Upload the changes:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_shadow --commit shadow --force
In the unlikely event this step fails, please report a bug.
.. note::
It is also possible to perform the configuration upgrade steps manually:
#. Locate the ``upgrade*.xsl`` conversion scripts provided with the source
code. These will often be installed in a location such as
``/usr/share/pacemaker``, or may be obtained from the
`source repository <https://github.com/ClusterLabs/pacemaker/tree/master/xml>`_.
#. Run the conversion scripts that apply to your older version, for example:
.. code-block:: none
# xsltproc /path/to/upgrade06.xsl config06.xml > config10.xml
#. Locate the ``pacemaker.rng`` script (from the same location as the xsl
files).
#. Check the XML validity:
.. code-block:: none
# xmllint --relaxng /path/to/pacemaker.rng config10.xml
The advantage of this method is that it can be performed without the cluster
running, and any validation errors are often more informative.
What Changed in 2.0
###################
The main goal of the 2.0 release was to remove support for deprecated syntax,
along with some small changes in default configuration behavior and tool
behavior. Highlights:
* Only Corosync version 2 and greater is now supported as the underlying
cluster layer. Support for Heartbeat and Corosync 1 (including CMAN) is
removed.
* The Pacemaker detail log file is now stored in
``/var/log/pacemaker/pacemaker.log`` by default.
* The record-pending cluster property now defaults to true, which
allows status tools such as crm_mon to show operations that are in
progress.
* Support for a number of deprecated build options, environment variables,
and configuration settings has been removed.
* The ``master`` tag has been deprecated in favor of using the ``clone`` tag
with the new ``promotable`` meta-attribute set to ``true``. "Master/slave"
clone resources are now referred to as "promotable" clone resources, though
it will take longer for the full terminology change to be completed.
* The public API for Pacemaker libraries that software applications can use
has changed significantly.
For a detailed list of changes, see the release notes and the
`Pacemaker 2.0 Changes <https://wiki.clusterlabs.org/wiki/Pacemaker_2.0_Changes>`_
page on the ClusterLabs wiki.
What Changed in 1.0
###################
New
___
* Failure timeouts.
* New section for resource and operation defaults.
* Tool for making offline configuration changes.
* ``Rules``, ``instance_attributes``, ``meta_attributes`` and sets of
operations can be defined once and referenced in multiple places.
* The CIB now accepts XPath-based create/modify/delete operations. See
``cibadmin --help``.
* Multi-dimensional colocation and ordering constraints.
* The ability to connect to the CIB from non-cluster machines.
* Allow recurring actions to be triggered at known times.
Changed
_______
* Syntax
* All resource and cluster options now use dashes (-) instead of underscores
(_)
* ``master_slave`` was renamed to ``master``
* The ``attributes`` container tag was removed
* The operation field ``pre-req`` has been renamed ``requires``
* All operations must have an ``interval``, ``start``/``stop`` must have it
set to zero
* The ``stonith-enabled`` option now defaults to true.
* The cluster will refuse to start resources if ``stonith-enabled`` is true (or
unset) and no STONITH resources have been defined
* The attributes of colocation and ordering constraints were renamed for
clarity.
* ``resource-failure-stickiness`` has been replaced by ``migration-threshold``.
* The parameters for command-line tools have been made consistent
* Switched to 'RelaxNG' schema validation and 'libxml2' parser
* id fields are now XML IDs which have the following limitations:
* id's cannot contain colons (:)
* id's cannot begin with a number
* id's must be globally unique (not just unique for that tag)
* Some fields (such as those in constraints that refer to resources) are
IDREFs.
This means that they must reference existing resources or objects in
order for the configuration to be valid. Removing an object which is
referenced elsewhere will therefore fail.
* The CIB representation, from which a MD5 digest is calculated to verify
CIBs on the nodes, has changed.
This means that every CIB update will require a full refresh on any
upgraded nodes until the cluster is fully upgraded to 1.0. This will result
in significant performance degradation and it is therefore highly
inadvisable to run a mixed 1.0/0.6 cluster for any longer than absolutely
necessary.
* Ping node information no longer needs to be added to ``ha.cf``. Simply
include the lists of hosts in your ping resource(s).
Removed
_______
* Syntax
* It is no longer possible to set resource meta options as top-level
attributes. Use meta-attributes instead.
* Resource and operation defaults are no longer read from ``crm_config``.
