Re: [Pacemaker] [Linux-HA] Probably a regression of the linbit drbd agent between pacemaker 1.1.8 and 1.1.10

2013-09-16 Thread Andreas Mock
Hi Lars, hi all,

we took the time and tested drbd 8.4.4-rc in our problematic scenario.

We were able to reproduce the promote error regularly with drbd 8.4.3.
After installing 8.4.4-rc we were not able to get this error any more.

So, concerning the changes made to get around the known race condition,
8.4.4-rc seems to work. We didn't look at other aspects of the new
version. If there is something we should test with your knowledge
let us know.

Best regards
Andreas

Why not?
That's what release candidates are intended for.
You'd only have to confirm that it works for you now.

Respectively, that it still does not,
in which case you better report that now
than after the release, right?

Hi Lars,

here also my official "Thank you very much" looking
at the problem.

Also thank you for writing a summary that - coming
from your knowing and insider standpoint -
is much better than I could do while trying to understand
all details presented by you here and in our offlist
communication. Additionally such a post gains much
more value for a list archive when sent by a famous
drbd, HA, pacemaker contributor like you are.

I've been looking forward to the official release
of drbd 8.4.4.

Or do you need disoriented rc testers like me? ;-)

Best regards
Andreas Mock

Right.

Off-list communication revealed that
DRBD came up as "Consistent" only,
which is a normal and expected state,
when using resource level fencing.

The promotion attempt then raced with the connection handshake.
The DRBD fence-peer handler is run (because it's only Consistent,
not UpToDate) and returns successfully, but due to that race,
this result is ignored, DRBD stays "only Consistent", which
is not good enough to be promoted ("need access to UpToDate data").

Once the handshake is done, that also results in "access to good data",
which is why the next promotion attempt succeeds.


Something in the timing of pacemaker actions has changed
between the affected and unaffected versions.
Apparently before there was enough time to do the connection handshake
before the promote request was made.


This race is fixed with DRBD 8.3.16 and 8.4.4 (currently rc1)

You can avoid that race by not allowing Pacemaker to promote
if DRBD is only "Consistent".

Pacemaker will only attempt promotion,
if there is a positive master score for the resource.

The ocf:linbit:drbd RA hardcodes the master score for
"Consistent" to 5.
So you may edit the RA and instead remove the master score
for the "only Consistent".

(above mentioned fixed DRBD versions also introduce a new
"adjust_master_score" paramater, and this becomes configurable)

Or you can add a location constraint like this:
 location no-master-if-only-consistent ms_drbd_XY \
rule $role="Master" -10: defined #uname

where "defined #uname" is a funny way to express "true",
as in this constraint reduces the resulting master score by 10,
always, anywhere.

If you have other $role=Master constraints, you may need to play with
the scores to achieve the desired outcome.

By first allowing DRBD to do the handshake in Secondary/Secondary,
and only later allowing it to promote,
this sequence also avoids the race.

At least in the one case I saw logs of, this wasn't the case.
The PE computed:

Current cluster status:
Online: [ db05 db06 ]

r_stonith-db05  (stonith:fence_imm):Started db06

Transition Summary:

* Promote r_drbd_fodblog:0  (Slave -> Master db05)

and it was the promotion of r_drbd_fodb:0 that failed.

I think that recent pacemaker allows for "start" and "promote" in the
same transition. Or at least has promote follow start much faster than before.

To be able to really tell why DRBD has problems to promote,
I'd need the drbd (kernel!) logs, the agent logs are not good enough.

Maybe you hit some interesting race between DRBD establishing the
connection, and pacemaker trying to promote one of the nodes.
Correlating DRBD kernel logs with pacemaker logs should tell.

Do you have DRBD resource level fencing enabled?

I guess right now you can reproduce it easily by:
  crm resource stop ms_drbd
  crm resource start ms_drbd

I suspect you would not be able to reproduce by:
  crm resource stop ms_drbd
  crm resource demote ms_drbd (will only make drbd Secondary stuff)
... meanwhile, DRBD will establish the connection ...
  crm resource promote ms_drbd (will then promote one node)

Hth,

Lars

Needle, meet haystack.
Particularly since I have no idea what that drbd error means.

If you want me to have a look, you'll need to create a crm_report archive of
"works" and "not works".
Logs aren't enough.

The version of drbd is the same too?

Needle, meet haystack.
Particularly since I have no idea what that drbd error means.

If you want me to have a look, you'll need to create a crm_report archive of 
"works" and "not works".
Logs aren't enough.

Re: [Pacemaker] [Linux-HA] Probably a regression of the linbit drbd agent between pacemaker 1.1.8 and 1.1.10

2013-08-26 Thread Andreas Mock
Hi Andrew,

as this is a real showstopper at the moment I invested some other
hours to be sure (as far as possible) not having made an error.

Some additions:
1) I mirrored the whole mini drbd config to another pacemaker cluster.
Same result: pacemaker 1.1.8 works, pacemaker 1.1.10 not 
2) When I remove the target role Stopped from the drbd ms resource
and insert the config snippet related to the drbd device via crm -f 
to a lean running pacemaker config (pacemaker cluster options, stonith
resources),
it seems to work. That means one of the nodes gets promoted.

Then after stopping 'crm resource stop ms_drbd_xxx' and starting again
I see the same promotion error as described.

The drbd resource agent is using /usr/sbin/crm_master.
Is there a possibility that feedback given through this client tool
is changing the timing behaviour of pacemaker? Or the way
transitions are scheduled?
Any idea that may be related to a change in pacemaker?

Best regards
Andreas Mock

Its hard to imagine how pacemaker could cause drbdadm to fail, short of leaving 
the other side promoted while trying to promote another.
Perhaps the drbd folks could comment on what the error means.
