Using the Sample Alert Agents
#############################
Pacemaker provides several sample alert agents, installed in
``/usr/share/pacemaker/alerts`` by default.
While these sample scripts may be copied and used as-is, they are provided
mainly as templates to be edited to suit your purposes. See their source code
for the full set of instance attributes they support.
.. topic:: Sending cluster events as SNMP v2c traps
.. code-block:: xml
.. note:: **SNMP alert agent attributes**
The ``timestamp-format`` meta-attribute should always be set to
``%Y-%m-%d,%H:%M:%S.%01N`` when using the SNMP agent, to match the SNMP
standard.
The SNMP agent provides a number of instance attributes in addition to the
one used in the example above. The most useful are ``trap_version``, which
defaults to ``2c``, and ``trap_community``, which defaults to ``public``.
See the source code for more details.
.. topic:: Sending cluster events as SNMP v3 traps
.. code-block:: xml
.. note:: **SNMP v3 trap configuration**
To use SNMP v3, ``trap_version`` must be set to ``3``. ``trap_community``
will be ignored.
The example above uses the ``trap_options`` instance attribute to override
the security level, authentication protocol, authentication user, and
authentication password from snmp.conf. These will be passed to the snmptrap
command. Passing the password on the command line is considered insecure;
specify authentication and privacy options suitable for your environment.

Special concerns when writing alert agents:
* Alert agents may be called with no recipient (if none is configured),
so the agent must be able to handle this situation, even if it
only exits in that case. (Users may modify the configuration in
stages, and add a recipient later.)
* If more than one recipient is configured for an alert, the alert agent will
be called once per recipient. If an agent is not able to run concurrently, it
should be configured with only a single recipient. The agent is free,
however, to interpret the recipient as a list.
* When a cluster event occurs, all alerts are fired off at the same time as
separate processes. Depending on how many alerts and recipients are
configured, and on what is done within the alert agents,
a significant load burst may occur. The agent could be written to take
this into consideration, for example by queueing resource-intensive actions
into some other instance, instead of directly executing them.
* Alert agents are run as the |CRM_DAEMON_USER| user, which has a minimal set
of permissions. If an agent requires additional privileges, it is
recommended to configure ``sudo`` to allow the agent to run the necessary
commands as another user with the appropriate privileges.
* As always, take care to validate and sanitize user-configured parameters,
such as ``CRM_alert_timestamp`` (whose content is specified by the
user-configured ``timestamp-format``), ``CRM_alert_recipient,`` and all
instance attributes. Mostly this is needed simply to protect against
configuration errors, but if some user can modify the CIB without having
|CRM_DAEMON_USER| access to the cluster nodes, it is a potential security
concern as well, to avoid the possibility of code injection.

Access Control Lists (ACLs)
---------------------------
By default, the ``root`` user or any user in the |CRM_DAEMON_GROUP| group can
modify Pacemaker's CIB without restriction. Pacemaker offers *access control
lists (ACLs)* to provide more fine-grained authorization.
.. important::
Being able to modify the CIB's resource section allows a user to run any
executable file as root, by configuring it as an LSB resource with a full
path.
ACL Prerequisites
#################
In order to use ACLs:
* The ``enable-acl`` :ref:`cluster option ` must be set to
true.
* Desired users must have user accounts in the |CRM_DAEMON_GROUP| group on all
cluster nodes in the cluster.
* If your CIB was created before Pacemaker 1.1.12, it might need to be updated
to the current schema (using ``cibadmin --upgrade`` or a higher-level tool
equivalent) in order to use the syntax documented here.
* Prior to the 2.1.0 release, the Pacemaker software had to have been built
with ACL support. If you are using an older release, your installation
supports ACLs only if the output of the command ``pacemakerd --features``
contains ``acls``. In newer versions, ACLs are always enabled.
.. important::
``enable-acl`` should be set either by the root user, or as part of a batch
of CIB changes including roles and users. Otherwise, the user setting it
might lock themselves out from making any further changes.
.. index::
single: Access Control List (ACL); acls
pair: acls; XML element
ACL Configuration
#################
ACLs are specified within an ``acls`` element of the CIB. The ``acls`` element
may contain any number of ``acl_role``, ``acl_target``, and ``acl_group``
elements.
.. index::

ACL Roles
#########
An ACL *role* is a collection of permissions allowing or denying access to
particular portions of the CIB. A role is configured with an ``acl_role``
element in the CIB ``acls`` section.

elements (enclosing elements that do not have attributes other than an
ID).
* Permissions for more specific matches (more deeply nested elements) take
precedence over more general ones.
* If multiple permissions are configured for the same match (for example, in
different roles applied to the same user), any ``deny`` permission takes
precedence, then ``write``, then lastly ``read``.

elements.
.. note::
If the system users and groups are defined by some network service (such as
LDAP), the cluster itself will be unaffected by outages in the service, but
affected users and groups will not be able to make changes to the CIB.

.. important::
The ``root`` and |CRM_DAEMON_USER| user accounts always have full access to
the CIB, regardless of ACLs. For all other user accounts, when ``enable-acl``
is true, permission to all parts of the CIB is denied by default (permissions
must be explicitly granted).
ACLs and Pacemaker Remote Nodes
###############################
ACLs apply differently on Pacemaker Remote nodes, which are assumed to be
special-purpose hosts without typical user accounts. Instead, CIB modifications
coming from a Pacemaker Remote node use the node's name as the ACL user name,
and ``pacemaker-remote`` as the role.
ACL Examples
############
.. code-block:: xml
In the above example, the user ``alice`` has the minimal permissions necessary
to run basic Pacemaker CLI tools, including using ``crm_mon`` to view the
cluster status, without being able to modify anything. The user ``bob`` can
view the entire configuration and status of the cluster, but not make any
changes. The user ``carol`` can read everything, and change selected cluster
properties as well as resource roles and location constraints. Finally,
``dave`` has full read and write access to the entire CIB.
Looking at the ``minimal`` role in more depth, it is designed to allow read
access to the ``cib`` tag itself, while denying access to particular portions
of its subtree (which is the entire CIB).
This is because the DC node is indicated in the ``cib`` tag, so ``crm_mon``
will not be able to report the DC otherwise. However, this does change the
security model to allow by default, since any portions of the CIB not
explicitly denied will be readable. The ``cib`` read access could be removed
and replaced with read access to just the ``crm_config`` and ``status``
sections, for a safer approach at the cost of not seeing the DC in status
output.
For a simpler configuration, the ``minimal`` role allows read access to the
entire ``crm_config`` section, which contains cluster properties. It would be
possible to allow read access to specific properties instead (such as
``stonith-enabled``, ``dc-uuid``, ``have-quorum``, and ``cluster-name``) to
restrict access further while still allowing status output, but cluster
properties are unlikely to be considered sensitive.
ACL Limitations
###############
Actions performed via IPC rather than the CIB
_____________________________________________
ACLs apply *only* to the CIB.
That means ACLs apply to command-line tools that operate by reading or writing
the CIB, such as ``crm_attribute`` when managing permanent node attributes,
``crm_mon``, and ``cibadmin``.
However, command-line tools that communicate directly with Pacemaker daemons
via IPC are not affected by ACLs. For example, users in the |CRM_DAEMON_GROUP|
group may still do the following, regardless of ACLs:
* Query transient node attribute values using ``crm_attribute`` and
``attrd_updater``.
* Query basic node information using ``crm_node``.
* Erase resource operation history using ``crm_resource``.
* Query fencing configuration information, and execute fencing against nodes,
using ``stonith_admin``.
ACLs and Pacemaker Remote
_________________________
ACLs apply to commands run on Pacemaker Remote nodes using the Pacemaker Remote
node's name as the ACL user name.
The idea is that Pacemaker Remote nodes (especially virtual machines and
containers) are likely to be purpose-built and have different user accounts
from full cluster nodes.

Alerts
------
*Alerts* may be configured to take some external action when a cluster event
occurs (node failure, resource starting or stopping, etc.).
.. index::
pair: alert; agent
Alert Agents
############
As with resource agents, the cluster calls an external program (an
*alert agent*) to handle alerts. The cluster passes information about the event
to the agent via environment variables. Agents can do anything desired with
this information (send an e-mail, log to a file, update a monitoring system,
etc.).
.. topic:: Simple alert configuration
.. code-block:: xml
In the example above, the cluster will call ``my-script.sh`` for each event.
Multiple alert agents may be configured; the cluster will call all of them for
each event.
Alert agents will be called only on cluster nodes. They will be called for
events involving Pacemaker Remote nodes, but they will never be called *on*
those nodes.
For more information about sample alert agents provided by Pacemaker and about
developing custom alert agents, see the *Pacemaker Administration* document.
.. index::
single: alert; recipient
pair: XML element; recipient
Alert Recipients
################
Usually, alerts are directed towards a recipient. Thus, each alert may be
additionally configured with one or more recipients. The cluster will call the
agent separately for each recipient.
.. topic:: Alert configuration with recipient
.. code-block:: xml
In the above example, the cluster will call ``my-script.sh`` for each event,
passing the recipient ``some-address`` as an environment variable.
The recipient may be anything the alert agent can recognize -- an IP address,
an e-mail address, a file name, whatever the particular agent supports.

Alert Instance Attributes

attributes are completely up to the particular agent.

Alert Filters
#############
By default, an alert agent will be called for node events, fencing events, and
resource events. An agent may choose to ignore certain types of events, but
there is still the overhead of calling it for those events. To eliminate that
overhead, you may select which types of events the agent should receive.
Alert filters are configured within a ``select`` element inside an ``alert``

With ```` (the only event type not enabled by default), the
agent will receive alerts when a node attribute changes. If you wish the agent
to be called only when certain attributes change, you can configure that as well.

Node attribute alerts are currently considered experimental. Alerts may be
limited to attributes set via ``attrd_updater``, and agents may be called
multiple times with the same attribute value.

Groups - A Syntactic Shortcut
#############################
One of the most common elements of a cluster is a set of resources
that need to be located together, start sequentially, and stop in the
reverse order. To simplify this configuration, we support the concept
of groups.
.. topic:: A group of two primitive resources
.. code-block:: xml
Although the example above contains only two resources, there is no
limit to the number of resources a group can contain. The example is
also sufficient to explain the fundamental properties of a group:
* Resources are started in the order they appear in (**Public-IP** first,
then **Email**)
* Resources are stopped in the reverse order to which they appear in
(**Email** first, then **Public-IP**)
If a resource in the group can't run anywhere, then nothing after that
is allowed to run, too.
* If **Public-IP** can't run anywhere, neither can **Email**;
* but if **Email** can't run anywhere, this does not affect **Public-IP**
in any way
The group above is logically equivalent to writing:
.. topic:: How the cluster sees a group resource
.. code-block:: xml
Obviously as the group grows bigger, the reduced configuration effort
can become significant.
Another (typical) example of a group is a DRBD volume, the filesystem
mount, an IP address, and an application that uses them.

Group Options
_____________
Groups inherit the ``priority``, ``target-role``, and ``is-managed`` properties
from primitive resources. See :ref:`resource_options` for information about
those properties.
Group Instance Attributes
_________________________
Groups have no instance attributes. However, any that are set for the group
object will be inherited by the group's children.
Group Contents
______________
Groups may only contain a collection of cluster resources (see
:ref:`primitive-resource`). To refer to a child of a group resource, just use
the child's ``id`` instead of the group's.
Group Constraints
_________________
Although it is possible to reference a group's children in
constraints, it is usually preferable to reference the group itself.
.. topic:: Some constraints involving groups
.. code-block:: xml
.. index::
pair: resource-stickiness; group
Group Stickiness
________________
Stickiness, the measure of how much a resource wants to stay where it
is, is additive in groups. Every active resource of the group will
contribute its stickiness value to the group's total. So if the
default ``resource-stickiness`` is 100, and a group has seven members,
five of which are active, then the group as a whole will prefer its
current location with a score of 500.

Clones - Resources That Can Have Multiple Active Instances
##########################################################
*Clone* resources are resources that can have more than one copy active at the
same time. This allows you, for example, to run a copy of a daemon on every
node. You can clone any primitive or group resource [#]_.
Anonymous versus Unique Clones
______________________________
A clone resource is configured to be either *anonymous* or *globally unique*.
Anonymous clones are the simplest. These behave completely identically
everywhere they are running. Because of this, there can be only one instance of
an anonymous clone active per node.
The instances of globally unique clones are distinct entities. All instances
are launched identically, but one instance of the clone is not identical to any
other instance, whether running on the same node or a different node. As an
example, a cloned IP address can use special kernel functionality such that
each instance handles a subset of requests for the same IP address.
.. index::
single: promotable clone

.. _s-resource-promotable:
Promotable clones
_________________
If a clone is *promotable*, its instances can perform a special role that
Pacemaker will manage via the ``promote`` and ``demote`` actions of the resource
agent.
Services that support such a special role have various terms for the special
role and the default role: primary and secondary, master and replica,
controller and worker, etc. Pacemaker uses the terms *promoted* and
*unpromoted* to be agnostic to what the service calls them or what they do.
All that Pacemaker cares about is that an instance comes up in the unpromoted role
when started, and the resource agent supports the ``promote`` and ``demote`` actions
to manage entering and exiting the promoted role.

compatibility, but is deprecated and will be removed in a future version:
* Using the ``master-max`` meta-attribute instead of ``promoted-max``
* Using the ``master-node-max`` meta-attribute instead of
``promoted-node-max``
* Using ``Master`` as a role name instead of ``Promoted``
* Using ``Slave`` as a role name instead of ``Unpromoted``
Clone Contents
______________
Clones must contain exactly one primitive or group resource.
.. topic:: A clone that runs a web server on all nodes
.. code-block:: xml
.. warning::
You should never reference the name of a clone's child (the primitive or group
resource being cloned). If you think you need to do this, you probably need to
re-evaluate your design.
Clone Instance Attribute
________________________
Clones have no instance attributes; however, any that are set here will be
inherited by the clone's child.
.. index::
single: clone; constraint
Clone Constraints
_________________
In most cases, a clone will have a single instance on each active cluster
node. If this is not the case, you can indicate which nodes the
cluster should preferentially assign copies to with resource location
constraints. These constraints are written no differently from those
for primitive resources except that the clone's **id** is used.
.. topic:: Some constraints involving clones
.. code-block:: xml
Ordering constraints behave slightly differently for clones. In the
example above, ``apache-stats`` will wait until all copies of ``apache-clone``
that need to be started have done so before being started itself.
Only if *no* copies can be started will ``apache-stats`` be prevented
from being active. Additionally, the clone will wait for
``apache-stats`` to be stopped before stopping itself.
Colocation of a primitive or group resource with a clone means that
the resource can run on any node with an active instance of the clone.
The cluster will choose an instance based on where the clone is running and
the resource's own location preferences.
Colocation between clones is also possible. If one clone **A** is colocated
with another clone **B**, the set of allowed locations for **A** is limited to
nodes on which **B** is (or will be) active. Placement is then performed
normally.
.. index::
single: promotable clone; constraint
.. _promotable-clone-constraints:
Promotable Clone Constraints
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For promotable clone resources, the ``first-action`` and/or ``then-action`` fields
for ordering constraints may be set to ``promote`` or ``demote`` to constrain the
promoted role, and colocation constraints may contain ``rsc-role`` and/or
``with-rsc-role`` fields.
.. topic:: Constraints involving promotable clone resources
.. code-block:: xml
In the example above, **myApp** will wait until one of the database
copies has been started and promoted before being started
itself on the same node. Only if no copies can be promoted will **myApp** be
prevented from being active. Additionally, the cluster will wait for
**myApp** to be stopped before demoting the database.
Colocation of a primitive or group resource with a promotable clone
resource means that it can run on any node with an active instance of
the promotable clone resource that has the specified role (``Promoted`` or
``Unpromoted``). In the example above, the cluster will choose a location
based on where database is running in the promoted role, and if there are
multiple promoted instances it will also factor in **myApp**'s own location
preferences when deciding which location to choose.
Colocation with regular clones and other promotable clone resources is also
possible. In such cases, the set of allowed locations for the **rsc**
clone is (after role filtering) limited to nodes on which the
``with-rsc`` promotable clone resource is (or will be) in the specified role.
Placement is then performed as normal.
Using Promotable Clone Resources in Colocation Sets
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When a promotable clone is used in a :ref:`resource set `
inside a colocation constraint, the resource set may take a ``role`` attribute.
In the following example, an instance of **B** may be promoted only on a node
where **A** is in the promoted role. Additionally, resources **C** and **D**
must be located on a node where both **A** and **B** are promoted.
.. topic:: Colocate C and D with A's and B's promoted instances
.. code-block:: xml
Using Promotable Clone Resources in Ordered Sets
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When a promotable clone is used in a :ref:`resource set `
inside an ordering constraint, the resource set may take an ``action``
attribute.
.. topic:: Start C and D after first promoting A and B
.. code-block:: xml
In the above example, **B** cannot be promoted until **A** has been promoted.
Additionally, resources **C** and **D** must wait until **A** and **B** have
been promoted before they can start.
.. index::
pair: resource-stickiness; clone
.. _s-clone-stickiness:
Clone Stickiness
________________
To achieve stable assignments, clones are slightly sticky by default. If no
value for ``resource-stickiness`` is provided, the clone will use a value of 1.
Being a small value, it causes minimal disturbance to the score calculations of
other resources but is enough to prevent Pacemaker from needlessly moving
instances around the cluster.
.. note::
For globally unique clones, this may result in multiple instances of the
clone staying on a single node, even after another eligible node becomes
active (for example, after being put into standby mode then made active again).
If you do not want this behavior, specify a ``resource-stickiness`` of 0
for the clone temporarily and let the cluster adjust, then set it back
to 1 if you want the default behavior to apply again.
.. important::
If ``resource-stickiness`` is set in the ``rsc_defaults`` section, it will
apply to clone instances as well. This means an explicit ``resource-stickiness``
of 0 in ``rsc_defaults`` works differently from the implicit default used when
``resource-stickiness`` is not specified.
Monitoring Promotable Clone Resources
_____________________________________
The usual monitor actions are insufficient to monitor a promotable clone
resource, because Pacemaker needs to verify not only that the resource is
active, but also that its actual role matches its intended one.
Define two monitoring actions: the usual one will cover the unpromoted role,
and an additional one with ``role="Promoted"`` will cover the promoted role.
.. topic:: Monitoring both states of a promotable clone resource
.. code-block:: xml
.. important::
It is crucial that *every* monitor operation has a different interval!
Pacemaker currently differentiates between operations
only by resource and interval; so if (for example) a promotable clone resource
had the same monitor interval for both roles, Pacemaker would ignore the
role when checking the status -- which would cause unexpected return
codes, and therefore unnecessary complications.
.. _s-promotion-scores:
Determining Which Instance is Promoted
______________________________________
Pacemaker can choose a promotable clone instance to be promoted in one of two
ways:
* Promotion scores: These are node attributes set via the ``crm_attribute``
command using the ``--promotion`` option, which generally would be called by
the resource agent's start action if it supports promotable clones. This tool
automatically detects both the resource and host, and should be used to set a
preference for being promoted. Based on this, ``promoted-max``, and
``promoted-node-max``, the instance(s) with the highest preference will be
promoted.
* Constraints: Location constraints can indicate which nodes are most preferred
to be promoted.

____________________
Before configuring a bundle in Pacemaker, the user must install the appropriate
container launch technology (Docker or podman), and supply a fully configured
container image, on every node allowed to run the bundle.
Pacemaker will create an implicit resource of type **ocf:heartbeat:docker** or
**ocf:heartbeat:podman** to manage a bundle's container. The user must ensure
that the appropriate resource agent is installed on every node allowed to run
the bundle.

.. note::
Pacemaker does not define the behavior if the source directory does not already
exist on the host. However, it is expected that the container technology and/or
its resource agent will create the source directory in that case.
.. note::
If the bundle contains a ``primitive``,
Pacemaker will automatically map the equivalent of
``source-dir=/etc/pacemaker/authkey target-dir=/etc/pacemaker/authkey``
and ``source-dir-root=/var/log/pacemaker/bundles target-dir=/var/log`` into the
container, so it is not necessary to specify those paths in a
``storage-mapping``.
.. important::
The ``PCMK_authkey_location`` environment variable must not be set to anything
other than the default of ``/etc/pacemaker/authkey`` on any node in the cluster.
.. important::
If SELinux is used in enforcing mode on the host, you must ensure the container
is allowed to use any storage you mount into it. For Docker and podman bundles,
adding "Z" to the mount options will create a container-specific label for the
mount that allows the container access.
.. index::
single: bundle; primitive
Bundle Primitive
________________
A bundle may optionally contain one :ref:`primitive `
resource. The primitive may have operations, instance attributes, and
meta-attributes defined, as usual.
If a bundle contains a primitive resource, the container image must include
the Pacemaker Remote daemon, and at least one of ``ip-range-start`` or
``control-port`` must be configured in the bundle. Pacemaker will create an
implicit **ocf:pacemaker:remote** resource for the connection, launch
Pacemaker Remote within the container, and monitor and manage the primitive
resource via Pacemaker Remote.
If the bundle has more than one container instance (replica), the primitive
resource will function as an implicit :ref:`clone ` -- a
:ref:`promotable clone ` if the bundle has ``promoted-max``
greater than zero.
.. note::
If you want to pass environment variables to a bundle's Pacemaker Remote
connection or primitive, you have two options:
* Environment variables whose value is the same regardless of the underlying host
may be set using the container element's ``options`` attribute.
* If you want variables to have host-specific values, you can use the
:ref:`storage-mapping ` element to map a file on the host as
``/etc/pacemaker/pcmk-init.env`` in the container *(since 2.0.3)*.
Pacemaker Remote will parse this file as a shell-like format, with
variables set as NAME=VALUE, ignoring blank lines and comments starting
with "#".
.. important::
When a bundle has a ``primitive``, Pacemaker on all cluster nodes must be able to
contact Pacemaker Remote inside the bundle's containers.
* The containers must have an accessible network (for example, ``network`` should
not be set to "none" with a ``primitive``).
* The default, using a distinct network space inside the container, works in
combination with ``ip-range-start``. Any firewall must allow access from all
cluster nodes to the ``control-port`` on the container IPs.
* If the container shares the host's network space (for example, by setting
``network`` to "host"), a unique ``control-port`` should be specified for each
bundle. Any firewall must allow access from all cluster nodes to the
``control-port`` on all cluster and remote node IPs.
.. index::
single: bundle; node attributes
.. _s-bundle-attributes:
Bundle Node Attributes
______________________
If the bundle has a ``primitive``, the primitive's resource agent may want to set
node attributes such as :ref:`promotion scores `. However, with
containers, it is not apparent which node should get the attribute.
If the container uses shared storage that is the same no matter which node the
container is hosted on, then it is appropriate to use the promotion score on the
bundle node itself.
On the other hand, if the container uses storage exported from the underlying host,
then it may be more appropriate to use the promotion score on the underlying host.
Since this depends on the particular situation, the
``container-attribute-target`` resource meta-attribute allows the user to specify
which approach to use. If it is set to ``host``, then user-defined node attributes
will be checked on the underlying host. If it is anything else, the local node
(in this case the bundle node) is used as usual.
This only applies to user-defined attributes; the cluster will always check the
local node for cluster-defined attributes such as ``#uname``.
If ``container-attribute-target`` is ``host``, the cluster will pass additional
environment variables to the primitive's resource agent that allow it to set
node attributes appropriately: ``CRM_meta_container_attribute_target`` (identical
to the meta-attribute value) and ``CRM_meta_physical_host`` (the name of the
underlying host).
.. note::
When called by a resource agent, the ``attrd_updater`` and ``crm_attribute``
commands will automatically check those environment variables and set
attributes appropriately.
.. index::
single: bundle; meta-attributes
Bundle Meta-Attributes
______________________
Any meta-attribute set on a bundle will be inherited by the bundle's
primitive and any resources implicitly created by Pacemaker for the bundle.
This includes options such as ``priority``, ``target-role``, and ``is-managed``. See
:ref:`resource_options` for more information.
Bundles support clone meta-attributes including ``notify``, ``ordered``, and
``interleave``.
Limitations of Bundles
______________________
Restarting pacemaker while a bundle is unmanaged or the cluster is in
maintenance mode may cause the bundle to fail.
Bundles may not be explicitly cloned or included in groups. This includes the
bundle's primitive and any resources implicitly created by Pacemaker for the
bundle. (If ``replicas`` is greater than 1, the bundle will behave like a clone
implicitly.)
Bundles do not have instance attributes, utilization attributes, or operations,
though a bundle's primitive may have them.
A bundle with a primitive can run on a Pacemaker Remote node only if the bundle
uses a distinct ``control-port``.

Nodes
-----
Pacemaker supports two basic types of nodes: *cluster nodes* and *Pacemaker
Remote nodes*.
.. index::
single: node; cluster node
Cluster nodes
_____________
Cluster nodes run Corosync and all Pacemaker components. They may run cluster
resources, run all Pacemaker command-line tools, execute fencing actions, count
toward cluster quorum, and serve as the cluster's Designated Controller (DC).
Every cluster must have at least one cluster node. Scalability is limited by
the cluster layer to around 32 cluster nodes.
Host Clock Considerations
#########################
In general, Pacemaker does not rely on time or time zones being synchronized
across nodes. However, if the configuration uses date/time-based :ref:`rules
`, synchronization is a good idea, otherwise the rules will evaluate
differently depending on which node is the Designated Controller (DC). Also,
synchronization is greatly helpful when comparing logs across multiple nodes
for problem investigation.
If a node's clock jumps forward, you may see relatively minor issues such as
various timeouts suddenly being considered expired.
If a node's clock jumps backward, more serious problems may occur, so this
should be avoided. If the host clock is adjusted at boot, and Pacemaker is
enabled at boot, Pacemaker's start should be ordered after the clock
adjustment. When run under systemd, Pacemaker will automatically order itself
after ``time-sync.target``. However, depending on the local setup, you may need
to enable an additional service (for example, ``chronyd-wait.service``) for
that to be effective, or write your own workaround (for example, see the
discussion on
`systemd issue#5097 `_.
.. _pacemaker_remote:
.. index::
pair: node; Pacemaker Remote
Pacemaker Remote nodes
______________________
Pacemaker Remote nodes do not run Corosync or the usual Pacemaker components.
Instead, they run only the *remote executor* (``pacemaker-remoted``), which
waits for Pacemaker on a cluster node to give it instructions.
They may run cluster resources and most command-line tools, but cannot perform
other functions of full cluster nodes such as fencing execution, quorum voting,
or DC eligibility.
There is no hard limit on the number of Pacemaker Remote nodes.
.. NOTE::
*Remote* in this document has nothing to do with physical proximity and
instead refers to the node not being a member of the underlying Corosync
cluster. Pacemaker Remote nodes are subject to the same latency
requirements as cluster nodes, which means they are typically in the same
data center.
There are three types of Pacemaker Remote nodes:
* A *remote node* boots outside Pacemaker control, and is typically a physical
host. The connection to the remote node is managed as a :ref:`special type of
resource ` configured by the user.
* A *guest node* is a virtual machine or container configured to run
Pacemaker's remote executor when launched, and is launched and managed by the
cluster as a standard resource configured by the user with :ref:`special
options `.
* A *bundle node* is a guest node created for a container that is launched and
managed by the cluster as part of a :ref:`bundle `
resource configured by the user.
.. NOTE::
It is important to distinguish the various roles a virtual machine can serve
in Pacemaker clusters:
* A virtual machine can run the full cluster stack, in which case it is a
cluster node and is not itself managed by the cluster.
* A virtual machine can be managed by the cluster as a simple resource,
without the cluster having any awareness of the services running within
it. The virtual machine is *opaque* to the cluster.
* A virtual machine can be a guest node, allowing the cluster to manage
both the virtual machine and resources running within it. The virtual
machine is *transparent* to the cluster.
Defining a Node
_______________
Each cluster node will have an entry in the ``nodes`` section containing at
least an ID and a name. A cluster node's ID is defined by the cluster layer
(Corosync).
.. topic:: **Example Corosync cluster node entry**
.. code-block:: xml
Pacemaker Remote nodes are defined by a resource in the ``resources`` section.
Remote nodes and guest nodes may optionally have an entry in the ``nodes``
section, primarily for permanent :ref:`node attributes `.
Normally, the user should let the cluster populate the ``nodes`` section
automatically.
.. index::
single: node; name
.. _node_name:
Where Pacemaker Gets the Node Name
##################################
The name that Pacemaker uses for a node in the configuration does not have to
be the same as its local hostname. Pacemaker uses the following for a cluster
node's name, in order of most preferred first:
* The value of ``name`` in the ``nodelist`` section of ``corosync.conf``
(``nodeid`` must also be explicitly set there in order for Pacemaker to
associate the name with the node)
* The value of ``ring0_addr`` in the ``nodelist`` section of ``corosync.conf``
* The local hostname (value of ``uname -n``)
A Pacemaker Remote node's name is defined in its resource configuration.
If the cluster is running, the ``crm_node -n`` command will display the local
node's name as used by the cluster.
If a Corosync ``nodelist`` is used, ``crm_node --name-for-id`` with a Corosync
node ID will display the name used by the node with the given Corosync
``nodeid``, for example:
.. code-block:: none
crm_node --name-for-id 2
.. index::
single: node; quorum-only
single: quorum-only node
Quorum-only Nodes
_________________
One popular cluster design uses an even number of cluster nodes (often 2), with
an additional lightweight host that contributes to providing quorum but cannot
run resources.
With Pacemaker, this can be achieved in either of two ways:
* When Corosync is used as the underlying cluster layer, the lightweight host
can run `qdevice `_ instead of
Corosync and Pacemaker.
* The lightweight host can be configured as a Pacemaker cluster node, and a
:ref:`location constraint ` can be configured for the
node with ``score`` set to ``-INFINITY``, ``rsc-pattern`` set to ``.*``, and
``resource-discovey`` set to ``never``.
.. index::
single: node; attribute
single: node attribute
.. _node_attributes:
Node Attributes
_______________
Pacemaker allows node-specific values to be specified using *node attributes*.
A node attribute has a name, and may have a distinct value for each node.
Node attributes come in two types, *permanent* and *transient*. Permanent node
attributes are kept within the ``node`` entry, and keep their values even if
the cluster restarts on a node. Transient node attributes are kept in the CIB's
``status`` section, and go away when the cluster stops on the node.
While certain node attributes have specific meanings to the cluster, they are
mainly intended to allow administrators and resource agents to track any
information desired.
For example, an administrator might choose to define node attributes for how
much RAM and disk space each node has, which OS each uses, or which server room
rack each node is in.
Users can configure :ref:`rules` that use node attributes to affect where
resources are placed.
Setting and querying node attributes
####################################
Node attributes can be set and queried using the ``crm_attribute`` and
``attrd_updater`` commands, so that the user does not have to deal with XML
configuration directly.
Here is an example command to set a permanent node attribute, and the XML
configuration that would be generated:
.. topic:: **Result of using crm_attribute to specify which kernel pcmk-1 is running**
.. code-block:: none
# crm_attribute --type nodes --node pcmk-1 --name kernel --update $(uname -r)
.. code-block:: xml
To read back the value that was just set:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_attribute --type nodes --node pcmk-1 --name kernel --query
scope=nodes name=kernel value=3.10.0-862.14.4.el7.x86_64
The ``--type nodes`` indicates that this is a permanent node attribute;
``--type status`` would indicate a transient node attribute.
.. warning::
Attribute values with newline or tab characters are currently displayed with
newlines as ``"\n"`` and tabs as ``"\t"``, when ``crm_attribute`` or
``attrd_updater`` query commands use ``--output-as=text`` or leave
``--output-as`` unspecified:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_attribute -N node1 -n test_attr -v "$(echo -e "a\nb\tc")" -t status
# crm_attribute -N node1 -n test_attr --query -t status
scope=status name=test_attr value=a\nb\tc
This format is deprecated. In a future release, the values will be displayed
with literal whitespace characters:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_attribute -N node1 -n test_attr --query -t status
scope=status name=test_attr value=a
b c
Users should either avoid attribute values with newlines and tabs, or ensure
that they can handle both formats.
However, it's best to use ``--output-as=xml`` when parsing attribute values
from output. Newlines, tabs, and special characters are replaced with XML
character references that a conforming XML processor can recognize and
convert to literals *(since 2.1.8)*:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_attribute -N node1 -n test_attr --query -t status --output-as=xml
Special node attributes
#######################
Certain node attributes have special meaning to the cluster.
Node attribute names beginning with ``#`` are considered reserved for these
special attributes. Some special attributes do not start with ``#``, for
historical reasons.
Certain special attributes are set automatically by the cluster, should never
be modified directly, and can be used only within :ref:`rules`; these are
listed under
:ref:`built-in node attributes `.
For true/false values, the cluster considers a value of "1", "y", "yes", "on",
or "true" (case-insensitively) to be true, "0", "n", "no", "off", "false", or
unset to be false, and anything else to be an error.

A node may be functioning adequately as far as cluster membership is concerned,

CPU may be highly loaded.
Pacemaker offers a way to automatically move resources off unhealthy nodes.

Pacemaker assigns a node health score to each node, as the sum of the values of
all its node health attributes. This score will be used as a location
constraint applied to this node for all resources.
The ``node-health-strategy`` cluster option controls how Pacemaker responds to
changes in node health attributes, and how it translates ``red``, ``yellow``,
and ``green`` to scores.
Allowed values are:

Exempting a Resource from Health Restrictions
#############################################
If you want a resource to be able to run on a node even if its health score
would otherwise prevent it, set the resource's ``allow-unhealthy-nodes``
meta-attribute to ``true`` *(available since 2.1.3)*.
This is particularly useful for node health agents, to allow them to detect
when the node becomes healthy again. If you configure a health agent without
this setting, then the health agent will be banned from an unhealthy node,
and you will have to investigate and clear the health attribute manually once
it is healthy to allow resources on the node again.
If you want the meta-attribute to apply to a clone, it must be set on the clone
itself, not on the resource being cloned.
Configuring Node Health Agents
##############################
Since Pacemaker calculates node health based on node attributes, any method
that sets node attributes may be used to measure node health. The most common
are resource agents and custom daemons.
Pacemaker provides examples that can be used directly or as a basis for custom
code. The ``ocf:pacemaker:HealthCPU``, ``ocf:pacemaker:HealthIOWait``, and
``ocf:pacemaker:HealthSMART`` resource agents set node health attributes based
on CPU and disk status.
To take advantage of this feature, add the resource to your cluster (generally
as a cloned resource with a recurring monitor action, to continually check the
health of all nodes). For example:
.. topic:: Example HealthIOWait resource configuration
.. code-block:: xml
The resource agents use ``attrd_updater`` to set proper status for each node
running this resource, as a node attribute whose name starts with ``#health``
(for ``HealthIOWait``, the node attribute is named ``#health-iowait``).
When a node is no longer faulty, you can force the cluster to make it available
to take resources without waiting for the next monitor, by setting the node
health attribute to green. For example:
.. topic:: **Force node1 to be marked as healthy**
.. code-block:: none
# attrd_updater --name "#health-iowait" --update "green" --node "node1"

Resources
---------
.. _s-resource-primitive:
.. index::
single: resource
A *resource* is a service managed by Pacemaker. The simplest type of resource,
a *primitive*, is described in this chapter. More complex forms, such as groups
and clones, are described in later chapters.
Every primitive has a *resource agent* that provides Pacemaker a standardized
interface for managing the service. This allows Pacemaker to be agnostic about
the services it manages. Pacemaker doesn't need to understand how the service
works because it relies on the resource agent to do the right thing when asked.
Every resource has a *standard* (also called *class*) specifying the interface
that its resource agent follows, and a *type* identifying the specific service
being managed.
.. _s-resource-supported:
.. index::
single: resource; standard
Resource Standards
##################
Pacemaker can use resource agents complying with these standards, described in
more detail below:
* ocf
* lsb
* systemd
* service
* stonith
Support for some standards is controlled by build options and so might not be
available in any particular build of Pacemaker. The command ``crm_resource
--list-standards`` will show which standards are supported by the local build.
.. index::

Open Cluster Framework
______________________
The Open Cluster Framework (OCF) Resource Agent API is a ClusterLabs
standard for managing services. It is the most preferred since it is
specifically designed for use in a Pacemaker cluster.
OCF agents are scripts that support a variety of actions including ``start``,
``stop``, and ``monitor``. They may accept parameters, making them more
flexible than other standards. The number and purpose of parameters is left to
the agent, which advertises them via the ``meta-data`` action.
Unlike other standards, OCF agents have a *provider* as well as a standard and
type.
For more information, see the "Resource Agents" chapter of *Pacemaker
Administration* and the `OCF standard
`_.
.. _s-resource-supported-systemd:
.. index::
single: Resource; Systemd
single: Systemd; resources
Systemd
_______
Most Linux distributions use `Systemd
`_ for system initialization
and service management. *Unit files* specify how to manage services and are
usually provided by the distribution.
Pacemaker can manage systemd units of type service, socket, mount, timer, or
path. Simply create a resource with ``systemd`` as the resource standard and
the unit file name as the resource type. Do *not* run ``systemctl enable`` on
the unit.
.. important::
Make sure that any systemd services to be controlled by the cluster are
*not* enabled to start at boot.
.. index::
single: resource; LSB
single: LSB; resources
single: Linux Standard Base; resources
Linux Standard Base
___________________
*LSB* resource agents, also known as `SysV-style
`_, are scripts that
provide start, stop, and status actions for a service.
They are provided by some operating system distributions. If a full path is not
given, they are assumed to be located in a directory specified when your
Pacemaker software was built (usually ``/etc/init.d``).
In order to be used with Pacemaker, they must conform to the `LSB specification
`_
as it relates to init scripts.
.. warning::
Some LSB scripts do not fully comply with the standard. For details on how
to check whether your script is LSB-compatible, see the "Resource Agents"
chapter of `Pacemaker Administration`. Common problems include:
* Not implementing the ``status`` action
* Not observing the correct exit status codes
* Starting a started resource returns an error
* Stopping a stopped resource returns an error
.. important::
Make sure the host is *not* configured to start any LSB services at boot
that will be controlled by the cluster.
.. index::
single: Resource; System Services
single: System Service; resources
System Services
_______________
Since there is more than one type of system service (``systemd`` and ``lsb``),
Pacemaker supports a special ``service`` alias which intelligently figures out
which one applies to a given cluster node.
This is particularly useful when the cluster contains a mix of ``systemd`` and
``lsb``.
If the ``service`` standard is specified, Pacemaker will try to find the named
service as an LSB init script, and if none exists, a systemd unit file.

As an example of setting resource options, if you performed the following
commands on an LSB Email resource:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_resource --meta --resource Email --set-parameter priority --parameter-value 100
# crm_resource -m -r Email -p multiple-active -v block
the resulting resource definition might be:
.. topic:: An LSB resource with cluster options
.. code-block:: xml
In addition to the cluster-defined meta-attributes described above, you may
also configure arbitrary meta-attributes of your own choosing. Most commonly,
this would be done for use in :ref:`rules `. For example, an IT department
might define a custom meta-attribute to indicate which company department each
resource is intended for. To reduce the chance of name collisions with
cluster-defined meta-attributes added in the future, it is recommended to use
a unique, organization-specific prefix for such attributes.
.. _s-resource-defaults:
Setting Global Defaults for Resource Meta-Attributes
____________________________________________________
To set a default value for a resource option, add it to the
``rsc_defaults`` section with ``crm_attribute``. For example,
.. code-block:: none
# crm_attribute --type rsc_defaults --name is-managed --update false
would prevent the cluster from starting or stopping any of the
resources in the configuration (unless of course the individual
resources were specifically enabled by having their ``is-managed`` set to
``true``).
Resource Instance Attributes
____________________________
The resource agents of some resource standards (lsb and systemd *not* among
them) can be given parameters which determine how they behave and which
instance of a service they control.
If your resource agent supports parameters, you can add them with the
``crm_resource`` command. For example,
.. code-block:: none
# crm_resource --resource Public-IP --set-parameter ip --parameter-value 192.0.2.2
would create an entry in the resource like this:
.. topic:: An example OCF resource with instance attributes
.. code-block:: xml
For an OCF resource, the result would be an environment variable
called ``OCF_RESKEY_ip`` with a value of ``192.0.2.2``.
The list of instance attributes supported by an OCF resource agent can be
found by calling the resource agent with the ``meta-data`` command.
The output contains an XML description of all the supported
attributes, their purpose and default values.
.. topic:: Displaying the metadata for the Dummy resource agent template
.. code-block:: none
# export OCF_ROOT=/usr/lib/ocf
# $OCF_ROOT/resource.d/pacemaker/Dummy meta-data

This is a dummy OCF resource agent. It does absolutely nothing except keep track
of whether it is running or not, and can be configured so that actions fail or
take a long time. Its purpose is primarily for testing, and to serve as a
template for resource agent writers.

When configuring a virtual machine as a guest node, the virtual machine is

**ocf:heartbeat:VirtualDomain** or **ocf:heartbeat:Xen**), with additional
meta-attributes.
No restrictions are enforced on what agents may be used to create a guest node,
but obviously the agent must create a distinct environment capable of running
the remote executor and cluster resources. An additional requirement is that
fencing the node hosting the guest node resource must be sufficient for
ensuring the guest node is stopped. This means that not all hypervisors
supported by **VirtualDomain** may be used to create guest nodes; if the guest
can survive the hypervisor being fenced, it is unsuitable for use as a guest
node.

Removing Pacemaker Remote Nodes

If the resource creating a remote node connection or guest node is removed from
the configuration, status output may continue to show the affected node (as
offline).
If you want to get rid of that output, run the following command, replacing
``$NODE_NAME`` appropriately:
.. code-block:: none
# crm_node --force --remove $NODE_NAME
.. WARNING::
Be absolutely sure that there are no references to the node's resource in the
configuration before running the above command.

Pacemaker automatically generates a ``status`` section in the CIB (inside the

The section's structure and contents are internal to Pacemaker and subject to

Transient Node Attributes
#########################
The ``transient_attributes`` section specifies transient
:ref:`node_attributes`. In addition to any values set by the administrator or
resource agents using the ``attrd_updater`` or ``crm_attribute`` tools, the
cluster stores various state information here.

Node History
############
Each ``node_state`` element contains an ``lrm`` element with a history of
certain resource actions performed on the node. The ``lrm`` element contains an
``lrm_resources`` element.

Resource History
________________
The ``lrm_resources`` element contains an ``lrm_resource`` element for each
resource that has had an action performed on the node.
An ``lrm_resource`` entry has attributes allowing the cluster to stop the
resource safely even if it is removed from the configuration. Specifically, the
resource's ``id``, ``class``, ``type`` and ``provider`` are recorded.

Action History
______________
Each ``lrm_resource`` element contains an ``lrm_rsc_op`` element for each
recorded action performed for that resource on that node. (Not all actions are
recorded, just enough to determine the resource's state.)

performed on that copy.
Simple Operation History Example
________________________________
.. topic:: A monitor operation (determines current state of the ``apcstonith`` resource)
.. code-block:: xml
The above example shows the history entry for a probe (non-recurring monitor
operation) for the ``apcstonith`` resource.
The cluster schedules probes for every configured resource on a node when
the node first starts, in order to determine the resource's current state
before it takes any further action.
From the ``transition-key``, we can see that this was the 22nd action of
the 2nd graph produced by this instance of the controller
(2668bbeb-06d5-40f9-936d-24cb7f87006a).
The third field of the ``transition-key`` contains a 7, which indicates
that the cluster expects to find the resource inactive. By looking at the
``rc-code`` property, we see that this was the case.
As that is the only action recorded for this node, we can conclude that
the cluster started the resource elsewhere.
Complex Operation History Example
_________________________________
.. topic:: Resource history of a ``pingd`` clone with multiple entries
.. code-block:: xml
When more than one history entry exists, it is important to first sort
them by ``call-id`` before interpreting them.
Once sorted, the above example can be summarized as:
#. A non-recurring monitor operation returning 7 (not running), with a
``call-id`` of 3
#. A stop operation returning 0 (success), with a ``call-id`` of 32
#. A start operation returning 0 (success), with a ``call-id`` of 33
#. A recurring monitor returning 0 (success), with a ``call-id`` of 34
The cluster processes each history entry to build up a picture of the
resource's state. After the first and second entries, it is
considered stopped, and after the third it considered active.
Based on the last operation, we can tell that the resource is
currently active.
Additionally, from the presence of a ``stop`` operation with a lower
``call-id`` than that of the ``start`` operation, we can conclude that the
resource has been restarted. Specifically this occurred as part of
actions 11 and 31 of transition 11 from the controller instance with the key
``2668bbeb...``. This information can be helpful for locating the
relevant section of the logs when looking for the source of a failure.
