In true UNIX style, there were also a number of different commands that specialized in different aspects of querying and updating the cluster. All of that has been greatly simplified with the creation of unified command-line shells (and GUIs) that hide all the messy XML scaffolding. These 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 atomically. Two popular command-line shells are `pcs` and `crmsh`. This edition of Clusters from Scratch is based on `pcs`. [NOTE] =========== The two shells share many concepts but the scope, layout and syntax does differ, so make sure you read the version of this guide that corresponds to the software installed on your system. =========== -[IMPORTANT] -=========== -Since `pcs` has the ability to manage all aspects of the cluster (both -corosync and pacemaker), it requires a specific cluster stack to be in -use: corosync 2.0 or later with votequorum plus Pacemaker 1.1.8 or later. -=========== - == Explore pcs == Start by taking some time to familiarize yourself with what `pcs` can do. ---- [root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs Usage: pcs [-f file] [-h] [commands]...

To discover the functionality available in each of these categories, one can issue the command +pcs pass:[category] help+. Below is an example of all the options available under the status category. ---- [root@pcmk-1 ~]# pcs status help Usage: pcs status [commands]...

If 'corosync' is specified, print nodes currently configured in corosync, if 'both' is specified, print nodes from both corosync & pacemaker. If 'config' is specified, print nodes from corosync & pacemaker configuration. pcsd ...
