This describes how to [[/w/fencing/configure_multiple_fencing_devices/ | Configure Multiple Fencing Devices]] (using that page's example of IPMI followed by two switched PDUs) using the higher-level `crm` shell. = Starting Point = For a frame of reference, the cluster starts with this configuration: ``` node $id="1" an-c03n01.alteeve.ca node $id="2" an-c03n02.alteeve.ca property $id="cib-bootstrap-options" \ cluster-infrastructure="corosync" \ no-quorum-policy="ignore" \ stonith-enabled="false" ``` = Assumptions = We will need to make a few assumptions about our example cluster: * It is a two-node cluster with the node names `pcmk-1` and `pcmk-2`. * The two PDUs are accessible at the network addresses `pdu-1` and `pdu-2`, and will be accessed using the `fence_apc_snmp` fence agent. * The fencing details for `pcmk-1` are: ** IPMI device address is `pcmk-1.ipmi`, the login name is `admin` and the password is `secret`. ** Its power supplies are connected to port 1 of both `pdu-1` and `pdu-2`. * The fencing details for `pcmk-2` are: ** IPMI device address is `pcmk-2.ipmi`, the login name is `admin` and the password is `secret`. ** Its power supplies are connected to port 2 of both `pdu-1` and `pdu-2`. Adapt the example below to the names, addresses, credentials, and fence agents appropriate to your cluster. = Configure Fencing Devices = * Configure the IPMI fence device for `pcmk-1`: ``` crm configure primitive fence_pcmk1_ipmi stonith:fence_ipmilan params \ ipaddr="an-c03n01.ipmi" login="admin" passwd="secret" delay="15" \ pcmk_host_list="pcmk-1" op monitor interval="60s" ``` * Configure the two PDU fence devices for `pcmk-1`: Note that we've added `power_wait="5"` to the second PDU, to tell pacemaker to wait 5 seconds after turning off the second PDU before restoring power. This gives plenty of time for the node's power supplies to completely drain, ensuring that the node loses power. ``` crm configure primitive fence_pcmk1_psu1 stonith:fence_apc_snmp params \ ipaddr="pdu-1" port="1" pcmk_host_list="pcmk-1" op monitor interval="60s" crm configure primitive fence_pcmk1_psu2 stonith:fence_apc_snmp params \ ipaddr="pdu-2" port="1" pcmk_host_list="pcmk-1" power_wait="5" op monitor interval="60s" ``` * Repeat for `pcmk-2`: ``` crm configure primitive fence_pcmk2_ipmi stonith:fence_ipmilan params \ ipaddr="an-c03n02.ipmi" login="admin" passwd="secret" \ pcmk_host_list="pcmk-2" op monitor interval="60s" crm configure primitive fence_pcmk2_psu1 stonith:fence_apc_snmp params \ ipaddr="pdu-1" port="1" pcmk_host_list="pcmk-2" op monitor interval="60s" crm configure primitive fence_pcmk2_psu2 stonith:fence_apc_snmp params \ ipaddr="pdu-2" port="1" pcmk_host_list="pcmk-2" power_wait="5" op monitor interval="60s" ``` == Configuring fencing_topology == The next step is to tell Pacemaker the order we want the fencing methods to run. This is node using the general format: ``` nodeX: method1 method2a,method2b [methodN ...] ``` This says, "For nodeX, try 'method1' first. If that fails, try 'method2a and then method2b' and make sure both succeed. If either fails, consider the attempt failed and move on 'methodN'." For our example: ``` crm configure fencing_topology \ pcmk-1: fence_pcmk1_ipmi fence_pcmk1_psu1,fence_pcmk1_psu2 \ pcmk-2: fence_pcmk2_ipmi fence_pcmk2_psu1,fence_pcmk2_psu2 ``` When Pacemaker needs to reboot a node using multiple devices in the same level, it turns them all off, then turns them all on, rather than rebooting each in turn, to ensure the node is completely fenced. == Enable Fencing == Now that fencing is configured, we can enable it: ``` crm configure property stonith-enabled=true ``` You can test this by unplugging the IPMI interface for `pcmk-1` and then crashing it, triggering `pcmk-2` to initiate fencing of it. After the IPMI interface times out, you should see PDU 1's port 1 turn off, then PDU 2's port 1 turn off, then the crashed node power down, then PDU 1's port 1 should turn back on, and finally PDU 2's port 1 should turn back on. If you configured your server's BIOS to power on after power loss or to return to last state after power loss, your server should start to power back on.
