Hi Affan,

 

As you said, pacemaker 1.1.10 doesn’t include pacemaker-remote feature.

 

We installed pacemaker 1.1.12-rc4 to test remote feature on Ubuntu 14.04 from 
the following link[1].

[1] https://launchpad.net/~david-gabriel/+archive/ubuntu/ppa

 

Side note: Ubuntu 16.04, coming soon, contains higher version.

 

Thanks,

Kazu

Hi Kazu,

 

thanks for this update. Sorry I am a bit late in replying to this thread, but 
one of my students just ran into an issue running pacemaker-based evacuation of 
hosts. It seems that pacemaker 1.1.10 is not supposed to work with remote, and 
the 14.04 distro comes with that version. 

 

Did you get remote to work, if so how? The pull request [1] indicates that 
remote support was added, but its unclear how the above version difference was 
handled. Did you people resort to compiling the latest pcm from source or 
something else?

Hi Affan,

 

Pacemaker works fine on either a canonical distribution or RDO.

I use our tool [1] using Pacemaker on Ubuntu without any specific issue.

Hi Kazu and Matt,

Thanks for the pointers. I think the discussion around pacemaker and pacemaker 
remote seems most promising, esp with Russel's blog post I found after I 
emailed earlier [1].

 

Not sure how tooling would be different, but pacemaker, given its use in the 
controller cluster anyways, seems a more logical choice. Any issues you people 
think with a canonical distribution instead of RDO?

I believe that either have your customers design their apps to handle failures 
or have tools that are reactive to failures.

 

Unfortunately like many other private cloud operators we deal a lot with legacy 
applications that aren't scaled horizontally or fault tolerant and so we've 
built tooling to handle customer notifications (reactive). When we lose a 
compute host we generate a notice to customers and then work on evacuating 
their instances. For the evac portion nova host-evacuate or host-evacuate-live 
work fairly well, although we rarely get a functioning floating-IP after 
host-evacuate without other work.

 

Getting adoption of heat or other automation tooling to educate customers is a 
long process, especially when they're used to VMware where I think they get the 
VM HA stuff for "free".

Hi Affan,

 

 

I don’t think any components in Liberty provide HA VM support directly.

 

However, many works are published and open-sourced, here.

https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/automatic-evacuation

You may find ideas and solutions.

 

And, the discussion on this topic is on-going at HA meeting.

thanks,

Kazu

reposting with the correct tag, hopefully. Would really appreciate some 
pointers.

Hi all,

I have been trying to understand if we currently have some VM HA support as 
part of Liberty?

 

To be precise, how are host being down due to power failure handled, 
specifically in terms of migrating the VMs but possibly even their networking 
configs (tunnels etc). 

 

The VM migration like XEN-HA or KVM cluster seem to require 1+1 HA, I have read 
a few places about celiometer+heat templates to launch VMs for an N+1 backup 
scenario, but these all seem like one-off setups. 

 

 

This issue seems to be very much important for legacy enterprises to move their 
"pets" --- not sure if we can simply wish away that mindset!

 

Affan
