Re: [ClusterLabs] Integrate external alerts with pcs cluster
Hi Strahil,Yes. Its simple but monitoring is done by an external service which sends alarm in case state of a hardware changes. Its a complex code and multiple devices are being monitored by it. If I ask pacemaker to monitor the device, this code has to be replicated in resource agents monitor which is not an option. Instead of that, I plan to examine the alert in external service and fail the resource if alarm is critical. Hope that it clarifies the scenario.By the way, how could I fail the resource from outside. I see that option in crm_resource CLI (--fail) but not in pcs CLI.Regards,AjayFrom: Strahil Nikolov hunter86...@yahoo.comSent: Sat, 11 Apr 2020 18:50:25To: Cluster Labs - All topics related to open-source clustering welcomed users@clusterlabs.org,Ajay Srivastava ajay_srivast...@rediffmail.comSubject: Re: [ClusterLabs] Integrate external alerts with pcs clusterOn April 11, 2020 2:04:23 PM GMT+03:00, Ajay Srivastava ajay_srivastava@r ediffmail.com wrote:Hi,In my environment I have a pacemaker cluster running which hasvarious software services as resource agents.These services havedependency on some hardware components.

[ClusterLabs] Verifying DRBD Run-Time Configuration
If I want to know the current DRBD runtime settings such as timeout, ping-int, or connect-int, how do I check that? I'm assuming they may not be the same as what shows in the config file. --Eric Disclaimer : This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for intended recipients.

Re: [ClusterLabs] Why Do Nodes Leave the Cluster?
Hi Strahil -- I hope you won't mind if I revive this old question. In your comments below, you suggested using a 1s token with a 1.2s consensus. I currently have 2-node clusters (will soon install a qdevice). I was reading in the corosync.conf man page where it says... "For two node clusters, a consensus larger than the join timeout but less than token is safe. For three node or larger clusters, consensus should be larger than token." Do you still think the consensus should be 1.2 * token in a 2-node cluster? Why is a smaller consensus considered safe for 2-node clusters? Should I use a larger consensus anyway? --Eric > -Original Message- > From: Strahil Nikolov > Sent: Thursday, February 6, 2020 1:07 PM > To: Eric Robinson ; Cluster Labs - All topics > related to open-source clustering welcomed ; > Andrei Borzenkov > Subject: RE: [ClusterLabs] Why Do Nodes Leave the Cluster? > > On February 6, 2020 7:35:53 PM GMT+02:00, Eric Robinson > wrote: > >Hi Nikolov -- > > > >> Defaults are 1s token, 1.2s consensus which is too small. > >> In Suse, token is 10s, while consensus is 1.2 * token -> 12s. > >> With these settings, cluster will not react for 22s. > >> > >> I think it's a good start for your cluster . > >> Don't forget to put the cluster in maintenance (pcs property set > >> maintenance-mode=true) before restarting the stack , or even better > >- get > >> some downtime. > >> > >> You can use the following article to run a simulation before removing > >the > >> maintenance: > >> https://www.suse.com/support/kb/doc/?id=7022764 > >> > > > > > >Thanks for the suggestions.
