Re: [Gluster-devel] [Gluster-users] Proposing to previous ganesha HA clustersolution back to gluster code as gluster-7 feature

2019-07-18 Thread Strahil Nikolov
Hi,

I'm posting this again as it got bounced.
Keep in mind that corosync/pacemaker  is hard for proper setup by new 
admins/users.

I'm still trying to remediate the effects of poor configuration at work.
Also, storhaug is nice for hyperconverged setups where the host is not only 
hosting bricks, but  other  workloads.
Corosync/pacemaker require proper fencing to be setup and most of the stonith 
resources 'shoot the other node in the head'.
I would be happy to see an easy to deploy (let say 'cluster.enable-ha-ganesha 
true') and gluster to be bringing up the Floating IPs and taking care of the 
NFS locks, so no disruption will be felt by the clients.

Still, this will be a lot of work to achieve.

Best Regards,
Strahil Nikolov

2019-07-18 Thread Strahil
Hi Jiffin,

No vendor will support your corosync/pacemaker stack if you do not have proper 
fencing.
As Gluster is already a cluster of its own, it makes sense to control 
everything from there.

Yeah I agree with your point. What I meant to say by default this 
feature won't provide any fencing mechanism,


user need to manually configure fencing for the cluster. In future we 
can try to include to default fencing configuration


for the ganesha cluster as part of the Ganesha HA configuration
