Convert Storage to Active/Active
--------------------------------
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 Storage Area Network (SAN) if you had one available, but
since DRBD supports multiple Primaries, we can continue to use it here.

Install Cluster Filesystem Software
###################################
The only hitch is that we need to use a cluster-aware filesystem. The
one we used earlier with DRBD, xfs, is not one of those. Both OCFS2
and GFS2 are supported; here, we will use GFS2.
-On both nodes, install the GFS2 command-line utilities required by
-cluster filesystems:
+On both nodes, install Distributed Lock Manager (DLM) and the GFS2 command-
+line utilities required by cluster filesystems:
.. code-block:: none
- # dnf install -y gfs2-utils
-
-Additionally, install Distributed Lock Manager (DLM) on both nodes.
-To do so, download the RPM from the `CentOS composes artifacts tree `_,
-onto your nodes and then run the following
-command:
-

Create and Populate GFS2 Filesystem
###################################
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.
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs resource disable WebFS
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs resource
- * ClusterIP (ocf::heartbeat:IPaddr2): Started pcmk-1

+ * Unpromoted: [ pcmk-2 ]
+ * WebFS (ocf:heartbeat:Filesystem): Stopped (disabled)
* Clone Set: dlm-clone [dlm]:
* Started: [ pcmk-1 pcmk-2 ]
You can see that both Apache and WebFS have been stopped, and that **pcmk-1**
is currently running the promoted instance for the DRBD device.
Now we can create a new GFS2 filesystem on the DRBD device.
.. WARNING::
This will erase all previous content stored on the DRBD device. Ensure
you have a copy of any important data.
.. IMPORTANT::
Run the next command on whichever node has the DRBD Primary role.
Otherwise, you will receive the message:
.. code-block:: none
/dev/drbd1: Read-only file system
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-2 ~]# mkfs.gfs2 -p lock_dlm -j 2 -t mycluster:web /dev/drbd1
It appears to contain an existing filesystem (xfs)
This will destroy any data on /dev/drbd1

Locking protocol: "lock_dlm"
Lock table: "mycluster:web"
UUID: 19712677-7206-4660-a079-5d17341dd720
The ``mkfs.gfs2`` command required a number of additional parameters:
* ``-p lock_dlm`` specifies that we want to use DLM-based locking.
* ``-j 2`` indicates that the filesystem should reserve enough
space for two journals (one for each node that will access the filesystem).
* ``-t mycluster:web`` specifies the lock table name. The format for this
field is ``:``. For ``CLUSTERNAME``, we need to use the
same value we specified originally with ``pcs cluster setup --name`` (which is
also the value of **cluster_name** in ``/etc/corosync/corosync.conf``). If
you are unsure what your cluster name is, you can look in
``/etc/corosync/corosync.conf`` or execute the command
``pcs cluster corosync | grep cluster_name``.
Now we can (re-)populate the new filesystem with data
(web pages). We'll create yet another variation on our home page.

GFS2 requires that DLM be running, so we also need to set up new colocation
and ordering constraints for it:
.. code-block:: none
- [root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs constraint colocation add WebFS with dlm-clone INFINITY
+ [root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs constraint colocation add WebFS with dlm-clone

+ WebSite with WebFS (score:INFINITY)
+ WebFS with dlm-clone (score:INFINITY)
+ Ticket Constraints:
We also need to update the **no-quorum-policy** property to **freeze**. By
default, the value of **no-quorum-policy** is set to **stop**, indicating that
once quorum is lost, all the resources on the remaining partition will
immediately be stopped. Typically this default is the safest and most optimal
option, but unlike most resources, GFS2 requires quorum to function. When
quorum is lost both the applications using the GFS2 mounts and the GFS2 mount
itself cannot be correctly stopped. Any attempts to stop these resources
without quorum will fail, which will ultimately result in the entire cluster
being fenced every time quorum is lost.
To address this situation, set **no-quorum-policy** to **freeze** when GFS2 is
in use. This means that when quorum is lost, the remaining partition will do
nothing until quorum is regained.

Test Failover
#############
Testing failover is left as an exercise for the reader.
With this configuration, the data is now active/active. The website
administrator could change HTML files on either node, and the live website will
show the changes even if it is running on the opposite node.
If the web server is configured to listen on all IP addresses, it is possible
to remove the constraints between the WebSite and ClusterIP resources, and
clone the WebSite resource. The web server would always be ready to serve web
pages, and only the IP address would need to be moved in a failover.

Add a Resource
##############
Our first resource will be a floating IP address that the cluster can bring up
on either node. Regardless of where any cluster service(s) are running, end
users need to be able to communicate with them at a consistent address. Here,
we will use **192.168.122.120** as the floating IP address, give it the
imaginative name **ClusterIP**, and tell the cluster to check whether it is
still running every 30 seconds.
.. WARNING::
The chosen address must not already be in use on the network, on a cluster
node or elsewhere. Do not reuse an IP address one of the nodes already has
configured.

[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs resource create ClusterIP ocf:heartbeat:IPaddr2 \
ip=192.168.122.120 cidr_netmask=24 op monitor interval=30s
Another 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** in this case) is the standard to which the resource
agent conforms and where to find it.
* The second field (**heartbeat** in this case) is known as the provider.
Currently, this field is supported only for OCF resources. It tells Pacemaker
which OCF namespace the resource script is in.
* The third field (**IPaddr2** in this case) is the name of the resource agent,
the executable file responsible for starting, stopping, monitoring, and
possibly promoting and demoting the resource.
To obtain a list of the available resource standards (the **ocf** part of
**ocf:heartbeat:IPaddr2**), run:

.. topic:: Quorum
If a cluster splits into two (or more) groups of nodes that can no longer
communicate with each other (a.k.a. *partitions*), *quorum* is used to
prevent resources from starting on more nodes than desired, which would
risk data corruption.
A cluster has quorum when more than half of all known nodes are online in
the same partition, or for the mathematically inclined, whenever the following
inequality is true:
.. code-block:: none
total_nodes < 2 * active_nodes
For example, if a 5-node cluster split into 3- and 2-node paritions,
the 3-node partition would have quorum and could continue serving resources.
If a 6-node cluster split into two 3-node partitions, neither partition
would have quorum; pacemaker's default behavior in such cases is to
stop all resources, in order to prevent data corruption.
Two-node clusters are a special case. By the above definition,
a two-node cluster would only have quorum when both nodes are
running. This would make the creation of a two-node cluster pointless.
However, corosync has the ability to require only one node for quorum in a
two-node cluster.
The ``pcs cluster setup`` command will automatically configure **two_node: 1**
in ``corosync.conf``, so a two-node cluster will "just work".
.. NOTE::
You might wonder, "What if the nodes in a two-node cluster can't
communicate with each other? Wouldn't this **two_node: 1** setting
create a split-brain scenario, in which each node has quorum separately
and they both try to manage the same cluster resources?"
As long as fencing is configured, there is no danger of this. If the
nodes lose contact with each other, each node will try to fence the
other node. Resource management is disabled until fencing succeeds;
neither node is allowed to start, stop, promote, or demote resources.
After fencing succeeds, the surviving node can safely recover any
resources that were running on the fenced node.
If the fenced node boots up and rejoins the cluster, it does not have
quorum until it can communicate with the surviving node at least once.
This prevents "fence loops," in which a node gets fenced, reboots,
rejoins the cluster, and fences the other node. This protective
behavior is controlled by the **wait_for_all: 1** option, which is
enabled automatically when **two_node: 1** is configured.
If you are using a different cluster shell, you may have to configure
``corosync.conf`` appropriately yourself.
-Now, simulate node recovery by restarting the cluster stack on **pcmk-1**, and
+Now, simulate node recovery by restarting the cluster stack on **pcmk-2**, and

.. index:: stickiness
Prevent Resources from Moving after Recovery
############################################
In most 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 such as
databases, this period can be quite long.
To address this, Pacemaker has the concept of resource *stickiness*,
which controls how strongly 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" [#]_ resource placement.
We can specify a different stickiness for every resource, but it is
often sufficient to change the default.
+In |CFS_DISTRO| |CFS_VERSION|, the cluster setup process automatically
+configures a default resource stickiness score of 1. This is sufficient to
+prevent healthy resources from moving around the cluster when there are no
+user-configured constraints that influence where Pacemaker prefers to run those
+resources.
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ [root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs resource defaults
+ Meta Attrs: build-resource-defaults
+ resource-stickiness=1
+
+For this example, we will increase the default resource stickiness to 100.
+Later in this guide, we will configure a location constraint with a score lower
+than the default resource stickiness.
+
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs resource defaults update resource-stickiness=100
Warning: Defaults do not apply to resources which override them with their own defined values
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs resource defaults
- Meta Attrs: rsc_defaults-meta_attributes
+ Meta Attrs: build-resource-defaults
resource-stickiness=100
-.. [#] Pacemaker may be built such that a positive resource-stickiness is
- automatically added to resource defaults. You can check your
- configuration to see if this is present.
+.. [#] Zero resource stickiness is Pacemaker's default if you remove the
+ default value that was created at cluster setup time, or if you're using
+ an older version of Pacemaker that doesn't create this value at setup
+ time.
.. [#] Pacemaker's default definition of "optimal" may not always agree with
yours. The order in which Pacemaker processes lists of resources and
nodes creates implicit preferences in situations where the administrator
has not explicitly specified them.

and, in order to have an active/active setup, allow both instances to be
promoted at the same time. We also set the notify option so that the cluster

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 DLM and DRBD instances.

single: Apache HTTP Server
Add Apache HTTP Server as a Cluster Service
-------------------------------------------
Now that we have a basic but functional active/passive two-node cluster,
we're ready to add some real services. We're going to start with
Apache HTTP Server because it is a feature of many clusters and is relatively
simple to configure.
Install Apache
##############
Before continuing, we need to make sure Apache is installed on both
hosts. We will also allow the cluster to use the **wget** tool (this is the
default, but **curl** is also supported) to check the status of the Apache
server. We'll install **httpd** (Apache) and **wget** now.
.. code-block:: none
# dnf install -y httpd wget
# firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=http
# firewall-cmd --reload
.. IMPORTANT::
Do **not** enable the httpd service. Services that are intended to
be managed via the cluster software should never be managed by the OS.
It is often useful, however, to manually start the service, verify that
it works, then stop it again, before adding it to the cluster. This
allows you to resolve any non-cluster-related problems before continuing.
Since this is a simple example, we'll skip that step here.
Create Website Documents
########################
We need to create a page for Apache to serve. On |CFS_DISTRO| |CFS_DISTRO_VER|, the
default Apache document root is ``/var/www/html``, so we'll create an index
file there. For the moment, we will simplify things by serving a static site
and manually synchronizing the data between the two nodes, so run this command
on both nodes:
.. code-block:: none
# cat <<-END >/var/www/html/index.html
My Test Site - $(hostname)
END
.. index::
single: Apache HTTP Server; status URL
Enable the Apache Status URL
############################
Pacemaker uses the **apache** resource agent to monitor the health of your
Apache instance via the ``server-status`` URL, and to recover the instance if
it fails. On both nodes, configure this URL as follows:
.. code-block:: none
# cat <<-END >/etc/httpd/conf.d/status.conf
SetHandler server-status
Require local
END
.. NOTE::
If you are using a different operating system, server-status may already be
enabled or may be configurable in a different location. If you are using
a version of Apache HTTP Server less than 2.4, the syntax will be different.
.. index::
pair: Apache HTTP Server; resource
Configure the Cluster
#####################
At this point, Apache is ready to go, and all that needs to be done is to
add it to the cluster. Let's call the resource WebSite. We need to use
an OCF resource agent called apache in the heartbeat namespace [#]_.
The script's only required parameter is the path to the main Apache
configuration file, and we'll tell the cluster to check once a
minute that Apache is still running.
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs resource create WebSite ocf:heartbeat:apache \
configfile=/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf \
statusurl="http://localhost/server-status" \
op monitor interval=1min
By default, the operation timeout for all resources' start, stop, monitor, and
other operations is 20 seconds. In many cases, this timeout period is less than
a particular resource's advised timeout period. For the purposes of this
tutorial, we will adjust the global operation timeout default to 240 seconds.
.. code-block:: none
+ [root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs resource op defaults
+ No defaults set
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs resource op defaults update timeout=240s
Warning: Defaults do not apply to resources which override them with their own defined values
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs resource op defaults
+ Meta Attrs: op_defaults-meta_attributes
timeout: 240s
.. NOTE::
In a production cluster, it is usually better to adjust each resource's
start, stop, and monitor timeouts to values that are appropriate for
the behavior observed in your environment, rather than adjusting
the global default.
.. NOTE::
If you use a tool like ``pcs`` to create a resource, its operations may be
automatically configured with explicit timeout values that override the
Pacemaker built-in default value of 20 seconds. If the resource agent's
metadata contains suggested values for the operation timeouts in a
particular format, ``pcs`` reads those values and adds them to the
configuration at resource creation time.
After a short delay, we should see the cluster start Apache.

IP address!
.. NOTE::
If, in the ``pcs status`` output, you see the WebSite resource has
failed to start, then you've likely not enabled the status URL correctly.
You can check whether this is the problem by running:
.. code-block:: none
wget -O - http://localhost/server-status
If you see **Not Found** or **Forbidden** in the output, then this is likely the
problem. Ensure that the **** block is correct.

single: colocation constraint
Ensure Resources Run on the Same Host
#####################################
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 else one of them should not run at all, if they cannot run on
the same node). Here, we instruct the cluster that WebSite can only run on the
host where ClusterIP is active.
To achieve this, we use a *colocation constraint* that indicates it is
mandatory for WebSite to run on the same node as ClusterIP. The
"mandatory" part of the colocation constraint is indicated by using a
score of INFINITY. The INFINITY score also means that if ClusterIP is not
active anywhere, WebSite will not be permitted to run.
.. NOTE::
If ClusterIP is not active anywhere, WebSite will not be permitted to run
anywhere.
.. NOTE::
INFINITY is the default score for a colocation constraint. If you don't
specify a score, INFINITY will be used automatically.
.. 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, we're saying that **WebSite** needs to be placed on the
same machine as **ClusterIP**, which implies that the cluster must know the
location of **ClusterIP** before choosing a location for **WebSite**.

single: ordering constraint
Ensure Resources Start and Stop in Order
########################################
Like many services, Apache can be configured to bind to specific
IP addresses on a host or to the wildcard IP address. If Apache
binds to the wildcard, it doesn't matter whether an IP address
is added before or after Apache starts; Apache will respond on
that IP just the same. However, if Apache binds only to certain IP
address(es), the order matters: If the address is added after Apache
starts, Apache won't respond on that address.
To be sure our WebSite responds regardless of Apache's address configuration,
we need to make sure ClusterIP not only runs on the same node,
but also starts before WebSite. A colocation constraint ensures only that the
resources run together; it doesn't affect order in which the resources are
started or stopped.
We do this by adding an ordering constraint. By default, all order constraints
are mandatory. This means, for example, that if ClusterIP needs to stop, then
WebSite must stop first (or already be stopped); and if WebSite needs to start,
then ClusterIP must start first (or already be started). This also implies that
the recovery of ClusterIP will trigger the recovery of WebSite, causing it to
be restarted.
.. code-block:: none

.. NOTE::
The default action in an order constraint is **start**. If you don't
specify an action, as in the example above, **pcs** automatically uses the
**start** action.
.. NOTE::
We could have placed the **ClusterIP** and **WebSite** resources into a
**resource group** instead of configuring constraints. A resource group is
a compact and intuitive way to organize a set of resources into a chain of
colocation and ordering constraints. We will omit that in this guide; see
the `Pacemaker Explained `_
document for more details.

Prefer One Node Over Another
############################
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, you may want to host the resources on the more powerful node
when it is available, to have the best performance -- or you may want to host
the resources on the **less** powerful node when it's available, so you don't
have to worry about whether you can handle the load after a failover.
To do this, we create a location constraint.
In the location constraint below, we are saying the WebSite resource
prefers the node pcmk-1 with a score of 50. Here, the score indicates
how strongly we'd like the resource to run at this location.

-we will force the WebSite to move to pcmk-1.
+we will force the WebSite to move to pcmk-2.

Set up a Cluster
----------------
Simplify Administration With a Cluster Shell
############################################
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.
In addition, the various components of the cluster stack (corosync, pacemaker,
etc.) had to be configured separately, with different configuration tools and
formats.
All of that has been greatly simplified with the creation of higher-level tools,
whether command-line or GUIs, that hide all the mess underneath.
Command-line cluster shells take all the individual aspects required for
managing and configuring a cluster, and pack them into one simple-to-use
command-line tool.
They even allow you to queue up several changes at once and commit
them all at once.
Two popular command-line shells are ``pcs`` and ``crmsh``. Clusters from Scratch is
based on ``pcs`` because it comes with |CFS_DISTRO|, but both have similar
functionality. Choosing a shell or GUI is a matter of personal preference and
what comes with (and perhaps is supported by) your choice of operating system.
Install the Cluster Software
############################
Fire up a shell on both nodes and run the following to activate the High
Availability repo.
.. code-block:: none
- # dnf config-manager --set-enabled ha
+ # dnf config-manager --set-enabled highavailability
.. IMPORTANT::
This document will show commands that need to be executed on both nodes
with a simple ``#`` prompt. Be sure to run them on each node individually.
Now, we'll install pacemaker, pcs, and some other command-line tools that will
make our lives easier:
.. code-block:: none
# dnf install -y pacemaker pcs psmisc policycoreutils-python3
.. NOTE::
This document uses ``pcs`` for cluster management. Other alternatives,
such as ``crmsh``, are available, but their syntax
will differ from the examples used here.
Configure the Cluster Software
##############################
.. index::
single: firewall
Allow cluster services through firewall
_______________________________________
On each node, allow cluster-related services through the local firewall:
.. code-block:: none
# firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=high-availability
success
# firewall-cmd --reload
success
.. NOTE ::
If you are using iptables directly, or some other firewall solution besides
firewalld, simply open the following ports, which can be used by various
clustering components: TCP ports 2224, 3121, and 21064, and UDP port 5405.
If you run into any problems during testing, you might want to disable
the firewall and SELinux entirely until you have everything working.
This may create significant security issues and should not be performed on
machines that will be exposed to the outside world, but may be appropriate
during development and testing on a protected host.
To disable security measures:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# setenforce 0
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# sed -i.bak "s/SELINUX=enforcing/SELINUX=permissive/g" /etc/selinux/config
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# systemctl mask firewalld.service
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# systemctl stop firewalld.service
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# iptables --flush
Enable pcs Daemon
_________________
Before the cluster can be configured, the pcs daemon must be started and enabled
to start at boot time on each node. This daemon works with the pcs command-line interface
to manage synchronizing the corosync configuration across all nodes in the
cluster, among other functions.
Start and enable the daemon by issuing the following commands on each node:
.. code-block:: none
# systemctl start pcsd.service
# systemctl enable pcsd.service
Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/pcsd.service to /usr/lib/systemd/system/pcsd.service.
The installed packages will create an **hacluster** user with a disabled password.
While this is fine for running ``pcs`` commands locally,
the account needs a login password in order to perform such tasks as syncing
the corosync configuration, or starting and stopping the cluster on other nodes.
This tutorial will make use of such commands,
so now we will set a password for the **hacluster** user, using the same password
on both nodes:
.. code-block:: none
# passwd hacluster
Changing password for user hacluster.
New password:
Retype new password:
passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully.
.. NOTE::
Alternatively, to script this process or set the password on a
different machine from the one you're logged into, you can use
the ``--stdin`` option for ``passwd``:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# ssh pcmk-2 -- 'echo mysupersecretpassword | passwd --stdin hacluster'
Configure Corosync
__________________
On either node, use ``pcs host auth`` to authenticate as the **hacluster** user:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs host auth pcmk-1 pcmk-2
Username: hacluster
Password:
pcmk-2: Authorized
pcmk-1: Authorized
Next, use ``pcs cluster setup`` on the same node to generate and synchronize the
corosync configuration:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs cluster setup mycluster pcmk-1 pcmk-2
No addresses specified for host 'pcmk-1', using 'pcmk-1'

If you'd like, you can specify an **addr** option for each node in the
``pcs cluster setup`` command. This will create an explicit name-to-address
mapping for each node in ``/etc/corosync/corosync.conf``, eliminating the
need for hostname resolution via DNS, ``/etc/hosts``, and the like.
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs cluster setup mycluster \
pcmk-1 addr=192.168.122.101 pcmk-2 addr=192.168.122.102
If you received an authorization error for either of those commands, make
sure you configured the **hacluster** user account on each node
with the same password.
The final corosync.conf configuration on each node should look
something like the sample in :ref:`sample-corosync-configuration`.

###########
Start by taking some time to familiarize yourself with what ``pcs`` can do.
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs
Usage: pcs [-f file] [-h] [commands]...
Control and configure pacemaker and corosync.
Options:
-h, --help Display usage and exit.
-f file Perform actions on file instead of active CIB.
Commands supporting the option use the initial state of
the specified file as their input and then overwrite the
file with the state reflecting the requested
operation(s).
A few commands only use the specified file in read-only
mode since their effect is not a CIB modification.
--debug Print all network traffic and external commands run.
--version Print pcs version information. List pcs capabilities if
--full is specified.
--request-timeout Timeout for each outgoing request to another node in
seconds. Default is 60s.
--force Override checks and errors, the exact behavior depends on
the command. WARNING: Using the --force option is
strongly discouraged unless you know what you are doing.
Commands:
cluster Configure cluster options and nodes.
resource Manage cluster resources.
stonith Manage fence devices.
constraint Manage resource constraints.
property Manage pacemaker properties.
acl Manage pacemaker access control lists.
qdevice Manage quorum device provider on the local host.

Configure Fencing
-----------------
What is Fencing?
################
Fencing protects your data from being corrupted, and your application from
becoming unavailable, due to unintended concurrent access by rogue nodes.
Just because a node is unresponsive doesn't mean it has stopped
accessing your data. The only way to be 100% sure that your data is
safe, is to use fencing to ensure that the node is truly
offline before allowing the data to be accessed from another node.
Fencing also has a role to play in the event that a clustered service
cannot be stopped. In this case, the cluster uses fencing to force the
whole node offline, thereby making it safe to start the service
elsewhere.
Fencing is also known as STONITH, an acronym for "Shoot The Other Node In The
Head", since the most popular form of fencing is cutting a host's power.
In order to guarantee the safety of your data [#]_, fencing is enabled by default.
.. NOTE::
It is possible to tell the cluster not to use fencing, by setting the
**stonith-enabled** cluster property to false:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs property set stonith-enabled=false
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs cluster verify --full
However, this is completely inappropriate for a production cluster. It tells
the cluster to simply pretend that failed nodes are safely powered off. Some
vendors will refuse to support clusters that have fencing disabled. Even
disabling it for a test cluster means you won't be able to test real failure
scenarios.
.. index::
single: fencing; device
Choose a Fence Device
#####################
The two broad categories of fence device are power fencing, which cuts off
power to the target, and fabric fencing, which cuts off the target's access to
some critical resource, such as a shared disk or access to the local network.
Power fencing devices include:
* Intelligent power switches
* IPMI
* Hardware watchdog device (alone, or in combination with shared storage used
as a "poison pill" mechanism)
Fabric fencing devices include:
* Shared storage that can be cut off for a target host by another host (for
example, an external storage device that supports SCSI-3 persistent
reservations)
* Intelligent network switches
Using IPMI as a power fencing device may seem like a good choice. However,
if the IPMI shares power and/or network access with the host (such as most
onboard IPMI controllers), a power or network failure will cause both the
host and its fencing device to fail. The cluster will be unable to recover,
and must stop all resources to avoid a possible split-brain situation.
Likewise, any device that relies on the machine being active (such as
SSH-based "devices" sometimes used during testing) is inappropriate,
because fencing will be required when the node is completely unresponsive.
(Fence agents like ``fence_ilo_ssh``, which connects via SSH to an HP iLO but
not to the cluster node, are fine.)
Configure the Cluster for Fencing
#################################
#. Install the fence agent(s). To see what packages are available, run
``dnf search fence-``. Be sure to install the package(s) on all cluster nodes.
#. Configure the fence device itself to be able to fence your nodes and accept
fencing requests. This includes any necessary configuration on the device and
on the nodes, and any firewall or SELinux changes needed. Test the
communication between the device and your nodes.
#. Find the name of the correct fence agent: ``pcs stonith list``
#. Find the parameters associated with the device:
``pcs stonith describe ``
#. Create a local copy of the CIB: ``pcs cluster cib stonith_cfg``
#. Create the fencing resource: ``pcs -f stonith_cfg stonith create [STONITH_DEVICE_OPTIONS]``
Any flags that do not take arguments, such as ``--ssl``, should be passed as ``ssl=1``.
#. Ensure fencing is enabled in the cluster:
``pcs -f stonith_cfg property set stonith-enabled=true``
#. If the device does not know how to fence nodes based on their cluster node
name, you may also need to set the special **pcmk_host_map** parameter. See
``man pacemaker-fenced`` for details.
#. 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 pacemaker-fenced`` for details.
#. 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 pacemaker-fenced`` for details.
#. Commit the new configuration: ``pcs cluster cib-push stonith_cfg``
#. Once the fence device resource is running, test it (you might want to stop
the cluster on that machine first):
``pcs stonith fence ``
Example
#######
For this example, assume we have a chassis containing four nodes
and a separately powered IPMI device active on 10.0.0.1. Following the steps
above would go something like this:
Step 1: Install the **fence-agents-ipmilan** package on both nodes.
Step 2: Configure the IP address, authentication credentials, etc. in the IPMI device itself.
Step 3: Choose the **fence_ipmilan** STONITH agent.
Step 4: Obtain the agent's possible parameters:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs stonith describe fence_ipmilan
fence_ipmilan - Fence agent for IPMI
-
+
fence_ipmilan is an I/O Fencing agentwhich can be used with machines controlled by IPMI.This agent calls support software ipmitool (http://ipmitool.sf.net/). WARNING! This fence agent might report success before the node is powered off. You should use -m/method onoff if your fence device works correctly with that option.
Stonith options:
auth: IPMI Lan Auth type.
cipher: Ciphersuite to use (same as ipmitool -C parameter)
hexadecimal_kg: Hexadecimal-encoded Kg key for IPMIv2 authentication
ip: IP address or hostname of fencing device
ipport: TCP/UDP port to use for connection with device
lanplus: Use Lanplus to improve security of connection
method: Method to fence
password: Login password or passphrase
password_script: Script to run to retrieve password
plug: IP address or hostname of fencing device (together with --port-as-ip)
privlvl: Privilege level on IPMI device
target: Bridge IPMI requests to the remote target address
username: Login name
quiet: Disable logging to stderr. Does not affect --verbose or --debug-file or logging to syslog.
- verbose: Verbose mode. Multiple -v flags can be stacked on the command line (e.g., -vvv) to increase
- verbosity.
- verbose_level: Level of debugging detail in output. Defaults to the number of --verbose flags specified
- on the command line, or to 1 if verbose=1 in a stonith device configuration (i.e., on
- stdin).

- list).
- pcmk_host_check: How to determine which machines are controlled by the device. Allowed values: dynamic-
- list (query the device via the 'list' command), static-list (check the pcmk_host_list
- attribute), status (query the device via the 'status' command), none (assume every
- device can fence every machine)
- pcmk_delay_max: Enable a random delay for stonith actions and specify the maximum of random delay. This
- prevents double fencing when using slow devices such as sbd. Use this to enable a
- random delay for stonith actions. The overall delay is derived from this random delay
- value adding a static delay so that the sum is kept below the maximum delay.

Step 5: ``pcs cluster cib stonith_cfg``
Step 6: Here are example parameters for creating our fence device resource:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs -f stonith_cfg stonith create ipmi-fencing fence_ipmilan \
pcmk_host_list="pcmk-1 pcmk-2" ipaddr=10.0.0.1 login=testuser \
passwd=acd123 op monitor interval=60s
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs -f stonith_cfg stonith
* ipmi-fencing (stonith:fence_ipmilan): Stopped
Steps 7-10: Enable fencing in the cluster:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs -f stonith_cfg property set stonith-enabled=true
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs -f stonith_cfg property
Cluster Properties:
cluster-infrastructure: corosync
cluster-name: mycluster
dc-version: 2.0.5-4.el8-ba59be7122
have-watchdog: false
stonith-enabled: true
Step 11: ``pcs cluster cib-push stonith_cfg --config``
Step 12: Test:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs cluster stop pcmk-2
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs stonith fence pcmk-2
After a successful test, login to any rebooted nodes, and start the cluster
(with ``pcs cluster start``).

Configure Disk
______________
By default, the installer's automatic partitioning will use LVM (which allows
us to dynamically change the amount of space allocated to a given partition).
However, it allocates all free space to the ``/`` (a.k.a. **root**) partition,
which cannot be reduced in size later (dynamic increases are fine).
In order to follow the DRBD and GFS2 portions of this guide, we need to reserve
space on each machine for a replicated volume.

The console isn't a very friendly place to work from, so we will now
switch to accessing the machine remotely via SSH where we can
use copy and paste, etc.
From another host, check whether we can see the new host at all:

Apply Updates
_____________
Apply any package updates released since your installation image was created:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# dnf update -y
.. index::
single: node; short name
Use Short Node Names
____________________
During installation, we filled in the machine's fully qualified 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:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# uname -n
pcmk-1.localdomain
We can use the `hostnamectl` tool to strip off the domain name:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# hostnamectl set-hostname $(uname -n | sed s/\\..*//)
Now, check that the machine is using the correct name:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# uname -n
pcmk-1
You may want to reboot to ensure all updates take effect.
Repeat for Second Node
######################
Repeat the installation steps so far, so that you have two
nodes ready to have the cluster software installed.
For the purposes of this document, the additional node is called
pcmk-2 with address 192.168.122.102.
Configure Communication Between Nodes
#####################################
Configure Host Name Resolution
______________________________
Confirm that you can communicate between the two new nodes:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# ping -c 3 192.168.122.102

rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.751/0.923/1.224/0.214 ms
Now we need to make sure we can communicate with the machines by their
name. Add entries for the machines to ``/etc/hosts`` on both nodes. You can
add entries for the machines to your DNS server if you have one, but this can
create a single-point-of-failure (SPOF) if the DNS server goes down [#]_. If
you add entries to ``/etc/hosts``, they should look something like the
following:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# grep pcmk /etc/hosts
192.168.122.101 pcmk-1.localdomain pcmk-1
192.168.122.102 pcmk-2.localdomain pcmk-2
We can now verify the setup by again using ping:
.. code-block:: none

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 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. We use them here only to simplify
the demo.
Create a new key and allow anyone with that key to log in:

[root@pcmk-1 ~]# cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
Install the key on the other node:

root@pcmk-2's password:
Number of key(s) added: 1
Now try logging into the machine, with: "ssh 'pcmk-2'"
and check to make sure that only the key(s) you wanted were added.
Test that you can now run commands remotely, without being prompted:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# ssh pcmk-2 -- uname -n
pcmk-2
Finally, repeat this same process on the other node. For convenience, you can
also generate an SSH key on your administrative machine and use **ssh-copy-id**
to copy it to both cluster nodes.
.. [#] You can also avoid this SPOF by specifying an ``addr`` option for each
node when creating the cluster. We will discuss this in a later section.

Replicate Storage Using DRBD
----------------------------
Even if you'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, it's not even an option. Not
everyone can 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 [#]_.
Install the DRBD Packages
#########################
DRBD itself is included in the upstream kernel [#]_, but we do need some
utilities to use it effectively.
|CFS_DISTRO| does not ship these utilities, so we need to enable a third-party
repository to get them. Supported packages for many OSes are available from
DRBD's maker `LINBIT `_, but here we'll use the free
`ELRepo `_ repository.
On both nodes, import the ELRepo package signing key, and enable the
repository:
.. code-block:: none
- # rpm --import https://www.elrepo.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-elrepo.org
- # rpm -Uvh https://www.elrepo.org/elrepo-release-8.el8.elrepo.noarch.rpm
- Retrieving https://www.elrepo.org/elrepo-release-8.el8.elrepo.noarch.rpm
- Verifying... ################################# [100%]
- Preparing... ################################# [100%]
- Updating / installing...
- 1:elrepo-release-8.2-1.el8.elrepo ################################# [100%]
+ [root@pcmk-1 ~]# rpm --import https://www.elrepo.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-elrepo.org
+ [root@pcmk-1 ~]# dnf install -y https://www.elrepo.org/elrepo-release-9.el9.elrepo.noarch.rpm
Now, we can install the DRBD kernel module and utilities:
.. code-block:: none
- # dnf install -y kmod-drbd90 drbd90-utils
+ # dnf install -y kmod-drbd9x drbd9x-utils
DRBD will not be able to run under the default SELinux security policies.
If you are familiar with SELinux, you can modify the policies in a more
fine-grained manner, but here we will simply exempt DRBD processes from SELinux
control:
.. code-block:: none
# dnf install -y policycoreutils-python-utils
# semanage permissive -a drbd_t
We will configure DRBD to use port 7789, so allow that port from each host to
the other:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# firewall-cmd --permanent --add-rich-rule='rule family="ipv4" \
source address="192.168.122.102" port port="7789" protocol="tcp" accept'
success
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# firewall-cmd --reload
success
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-2 ~]# firewall-cmd --permanent --add-rich-rule='rule family="ipv4" \
source address="192.168.122.101" port port="7789" protocol="tcp" accept'
success
[root@pcmk-2 ~]# firewall-cmd --reload
success
.. NOTE::
In this example, we have only two nodes, and all network traffic is on the same LAN.
In production, it is recommended to use a dedicated, isolated network for cluster-related traffic,
so the firewall configuration would likely be different; one approach would be to
add the dedicated network interfaces to the trusted zone.
.. NOTE::
If the ``firewall-cmd --add-rich-rule`` command fails with **Error:
INVALID_RULE: unknown element**, ensure that there is no space at the
beginning of the second line of the command.
Allocate a Disk Volume for DRBD
###############################
DRBD will need its own block device on each node. This can be
a physical disk partition or logical volume, of whatever size
you need for your data. For this document, we will use a 512MiB logical volume,
which is more than sufficient for a single HTML file and (later) GFS2 metadata.
.. code-block:: none
- [root@pcmk-1 ~]# vgdisplay | grep -e Name -e Free
- VG Name cs_pcmk-1
- Free PE / Size 3583 / <14.00 GiB

Repeat for the second node, making sure to use the same size:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# ssh pcmk-2 -- lvcreate --name drbd-demo --size 512M cs_pcmk-2
Logical volume "drbd-demo" created.
Configure DRBD
##############
There is no series of commands for building a DRBD configuration, so simply
run this on both nodes to use this sample configuration:
.. code-block:: none
# cat </etc/drbd.d/wwwdata.res
resource wwwdata {
protocol C;
meta-disk internal;
device /dev/drbd1;
syncer {
verify-alg sha1;
}
net {
allow-two-primaries;
}
on pcmk-1 {
- disk /dev/cs_pcmk-1/drbd-demo;
+ disk /dev/almalinux_pcmk-1/drbd-demo;
address 192.168.122.101:7789;
}
on pcmk-2 {
- disk /dev/cs_pcmk-2/drbd-demo;
+ disk /dev/almalinux_pcmk-2/drbd-demo;
address 192.168.122.102:7789;
}
}
END
.. IMPORTANT::
Edit the file to use the hostnames, IP addresses, and logical volume paths
of your nodes if they differ from the ones used in this guide.
.. NOTE::
Detailed information on the directives used in this configuration (and
other alternatives) is available in the
`DRBD User's Guide
`_.
The **allow-two-primaries** option would not normally be used in
an active/passive cluster. We are adding it here for the convenience
of changing to an active/active cluster later.
Initialize DRBD
###############
With the configuration in place, we can now get DRBD running.
These commands create the local metadata for the DRBD resource,
ensure the DRBD kernel module is loaded, and bring up the DRBD resource.
Run them on one node:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# drbdadm create-md wwwdata

--== Thank you for participating in the global usage survey ==--
The server's response is:
-
- you are the 801th user to install this version
+
+ you are the 25212th user to install this version
We can confirm DRBD's status on this node:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# drbdadm status
wwwdata role:Secondary
disk:Inconsistent
pcmk-2 connection:Connecting
Because we have not yet initialized the data, this node's data
is marked as **Inconsistent**. Because we have not yet initialized
the second node, the pcmk-2 connection is **Connecting** (waiting for connection).
Now, repeat the above commands on the second node, starting with creating
wwwdata.res. After giving it time to connect, when we check the status of the first
node, it shows:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# drbdadm status
wwwdata role:Secondary
disk:Inconsistent
pcmk-2 role:Secondary
peer-disk:Inconsistent
You can see that **pcmk-2 connection:Connecting** longer appears in the
output, meaning the two DRBD nodes are communicating properly, and both
nodes are in **Secondary** role with **Inconsistent** data.
To make the data consistent, we need to tell DRBD which node should be
considered to have the correct data. In this case, since we are creating
a new resource, both have garbage, so we'll just pick pcmk-1
and run this command on it:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# drbdadm primary --force wwwdata
.. NOTE::
If you are using a different version of DRBD, the required syntax may be different.
See the documentation for your version for how to perform these commands.
-If we check the status of both nodes immediately, we'll see something like this:
+If we check the status immediately, we'll see something like this:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# drbdadm status
wwwdata role:Primary
disk:UpToDate
- pcmk-1 role:Secondary
- peer-disk:UpToDate
- [root@pcmk-2 ~]# drbdadm status
- wwwdata role:Secondary
- disk:UpToDate
- pcmk-1 role:Primary
+ pcmk-2 role:Secondary
peer-disk:Inconsistent
+It will be quickly followed by this:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ wwwdata role:Primary
+ disk:UpToDate
+ pcmk-2 role:Secondary
+ replication:SyncSource peer-disk:Inconsistent
+
We can see that the first node has the **Primary** role, its partner node has
the **Secondary** role, the first node's data is now considered **UpToDate**,
the partner node's data is still **Inconsistent**.
After a while, the sync should finish, and you'll see something like:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# drbdadm status
wwwdata role:Primary
disk:UpToDate
pcmk-1 role:Secondary
peer-disk:UpToDate
[root@pcmk-2 ~]# drbdadm status
wwwdata role:Secondary
disk:UpToDate
pcmk-1 role:Primary
peer-disk:UpToDate
Both sets of data are now **UpToDate**, and we can proceed to creating
and populating a filesystem for our WebSite resource's documents.
Populate the DRBD Disk
######################
On the node with the primary role (pcmk-1 in this example),
create a filesystem on the DRBD device:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# mkfs.xfs /dev/drbd1
meta-data=/dev/drbd1 isize=512 agcount=4, agsize=32765 blks
= sectsz=512 attr=2, projid32bit=1

log =internal log bsize=4096 blocks=1368, version=2
= sectsz=512 sunit=0 blks, lazy-count=1
realtime =none extsz=4096 blocks=0, rtextents=0
Discarding blocks...Done.
.. NOTE::
In this example, we create an xfs filesystem with no special options.
In a production environment, you should choose a filesystem type and
options that are suitable for your application.
Mount the newly created filesystem, populate it with our web document,
give it the same SELinux policy as the web document root,
then unmount it (the cluster will handle mounting and unmounting it later):
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# mount /dev/drbd1 /mnt
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# cat <<-END >/mnt/index.html
My Test Site - DRBD
END
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# chcon -R --reference=/var/www/html /mnt
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# umount /dev/drbd1
Configure the Cluster for the DRBD device
#########################################
One handy feature ``pcs`` has is the ability to queue up several changes
into a file and commit those changes all at once. To do this, start by
populating the file with the current raw XML config from the CIB.
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs cluster cib drbd_cfg
Using pcs's ``-f`` option, make changes to the configuration saved
in the ``drbd_cfg`` file. These changes will not be seen by the cluster until
the ``drbd_cfg`` file is pushed into the live cluster's CIB later.
Here, we create a cluster resource for the DRBD device, and an additional *clone*
resource to allow the resource to run on both nodes at the same time.
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs -f drbd_cfg resource create WebData ocf:linbit:drbd \

We can see that **WebData-clone** (our DRBD device) is running as promoted
(DRBD's primary role) on **pcmk-1** and unpromoted (DRBD's secondary role) on
**pcmk-2**.
.. IMPORTANT::
The resource agent should load the DRBD module when needed if it's not already
loaded. If that does not happen, configure your operating system to load the
module at boot time. For |CFS_DISTRO| |CFS_DISTRO_VER|, you would run this on both
nodes:
.. code-block:: none
# echo drbd >/etc/modules-load.d/drbd.conf
Configure the Cluster for the Filesystem
########################################
Now that we have a working DRBD device, we need to mount its filesystem.
In addition to defining the filesystem, we also need to
tell the cluster where it can be located (only on the DRBD Primary)
and when it is allowed to start (after the Primary was promoted).
We are going to take a shortcut when creating the resource this time.
Instead of explicitly saying we want the **ocf:heartbeat:Filesystem** script, we
are only going to ask for **Filesystem**. We can do this because we know there is only
one resource script named **Filesystem** available to pacemaker, and that pcs is smart
enough to fill in the **ocf:heartbeat:** portion for us correctly in the configuration.
If there were multiple **Filesystem** scripts from different OCF providers, we would need
to specify the exact one we wanted.
Once again, we will queue our changes to a file and then push the
new configuration to the cluster as the final step.

+Previously, we used ``pcs cluster stop pcmk-2`` to stop all cluster
+services on **pcmk-2**, failing over the cluster resources, but there is another
way to safely simulate node failure.
We can put the node into *standby mode*. Nodes in this state continue to
run corosync and pacemaker but are not allowed to run resources. Any resources
found active there will be moved elsewhere. This feature can be particularly
useful when performing system administration tasks such as updating packages
used by cluster resources.
Put the active node into standby mode, and observe the cluster move all
the resources to the other node. The node's status will change to indicate that
it can no longer host resources, and eventually all the resources will move.

Start and Verify Cluster
------------------------
Start the Cluster
#################
Now that corosync is configured, it is time to start the cluster.
The command below will start corosync and pacemaker on both nodes
in the cluster.
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs cluster start --all
pcmk-1: Starting Cluster...
pcmk-2: Starting Cluster...
.. NOTE::
An alternative to using the ``pcs cluster start --all`` command
is to issue either of the below command sequences on each node in the
cluster separately:
.. code-block:: none
# pcs cluster start
Starting Cluster...
or
.. code-block:: none
# systemctl start corosync.service
# systemctl start pacemaker.service
.. IMPORTANT::
In this example, we are not enabling the corosync and pacemaker services
to start at boot. If a cluster node fails or is rebooted, you will need to
run ``pcs cluster start [ | --all]`` to start the cluster on it.
While you can enable the services to start at boot (for example, using
``pcs cluster enable [ | --all]``), requiring a manual start of
cluster services gives you the opportunity to do a post-mortem
investigation of a node failure before returning it to the cluster.
Verify Corosync Installation
############################
First, use ``corosync-cfgtool`` to check whether cluster communication is happy:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# corosync-cfgtool -s
- Printing link status.
- Local node ID 1
- LINK ID 0
+ Local node ID 1, transport knet
+ LINK ID 0 udp
addr = 192.168.122.101
status:
- nodeid 1: localhost
- nodeid 2: connected
+ nodeid: 1: localhost
+ nodeid: 2: connected
We can see here that everything appears normal with our fixed IP
address (not a 127.0.0.x loopback address) listed as the **addr**, and **localhost** and **connected** for the statuses of nodeid 1 and nodeid 2, respectively.
If you see something different, you might want to start by checking
the node's network, firewall, and SELinux configurations.
Next, check the membership and quorum APIs:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# corosync-cmapctl | grep members
runtime.members.1.config_version (u64) = 0
runtime.members.1.ip (str) = r(0) ip(192.168.122.101)
runtime.members.1.join_count (u32) = 1
runtime.members.1.status (str) = joined
runtime.members.2.config_version (u64) = 0
runtime.members.2.ip (str) = r(0) ip(192.168.122.102)
runtime.members.2.join_count (u32) = 1
runtime.members.2.status (str) = joined
+
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs status corosync
Membership information
----------------------
Nodeid Votes Name
1 1 pcmk-1 (local)
2 1 pcmk-2
You should see both nodes have joined the cluster.
Verify Pacemaker Installation
#############################
Now that we have confirmed that Corosync is functional, we can check
the rest of the stack. Pacemaker has already been started, so verify
the necessary processes are running:
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# ps axf
PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND
2 ? S 0:00 [kthreadd]
...lots of processes...
17121 ? SLsl 0:01 /usr/sbin/corosync -f
17133 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/sbin/pacemakerd
17134 ? Ss 0:00 \_ /usr/libexec/pacemaker/pacemaker-based
17135 ? Ss 0:00 \_ /usr/libexec/pacemaker/pacemaker-fenced
17136 ? Ss 0:00 \_ /usr/libexec/pacemaker/pacemaker-execd
17137 ? Ss 0:00 \_ /usr/libexec/pacemaker/pacemaker-attrd
17138 ? Ss 0:00 \_ /usr/libexec/pacemaker/pacemaker-schedulerd
17139 ? Ss 0:00 \_ /usr/libexec/pacemaker/pacemaker-controld
If that looks OK, check the ``pcs status`` output:
.. code-block:: none

Finally, ensure there are no start-up errors from corosync or pacemaker (aside
from messages relating to not having STONITH configured, which are OK at this
point):
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# journalctl -b | grep -i error
.. NOTE::
Other operating systems may report startup errors in other locations
(for example, ``/var/log/messages``).
Repeat these checks on the other node. The results should be the same.
Explore the Existing Configuration
##################################
For those who are not of afraid of XML, you can see the raw cluster
configuration and status by using the ``pcs cluster cib`` command.
.. topic:: The last XML you'll see in this document
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs cluster cib
.. code-block:: xml

-
+

Before we make any changes, it's a good idea to check the validity of
the configuration.
.. code-block:: none
[root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs cluster verify --full
Error: invalid cib:
(unpack_resources) error: Resource start-up disabled since no STONITH resources have been defined
(unpack_resources) error: Either configure some or disable STONITH with the stonith-enabled option
(unpack_resources) error: NOTE: Clusters with shared data need STONITH to ensure data integrity
crm_verify: Errors found during check: config not valid
Error: Errors have occurred, therefore pcs is unable to continue
As you can see, the tool has found some errors. The cluster will not start any
resources until we configure STONITH.
