Hi Vadim,
This does indeed reboot a box, once storage fails:
echo b > /proc/sysrq-trigger
Removing it doesn't make sense, as there are serious issues once you
hit this code. I'd recommend making sure the storage is reliable.

Remi,
I have analyzed situation and found that storage may cause problem
with host reboot as you wrote before in this thread. Reason for that --
we do offline backups from NFS server at that time when hosts fail.
Basically we copy all files in primary and secondary storage offsite.
This process starts precisely at 00:00 and somewhere around 00:10 -
00:40 XenServer host starts to reboot.
Reading old threads I have found that
/opt/cloud/bin/xenheartbeat.sh may do this job. Particularly last lines
at my xenheartbeat.sh are:
-------------------------
/usr/bin/logger -t heartbeat "Problem with $hb: not reachable for
$(($(date +%s) - $lastdate)) seconds, rebooting system!"
echo b > /proc/sysrq-trigger
-------------------------
The only "unclear" moment is -- I don't have such line in my logs.
May this command "echo b > /proc/sysrq-trigger" prevent from writing to
syslog file? Documentation says that it does reboot immediately without
synchronizing FS. It seems there is no other place that may do it, but
still I am not 100% sure.
Vadim.

Remi,
Thank you for hint. At least one problem is identified:
[root@xcp1 ~]# xe pool-list params=all | grep -E
"ha-enabled|ha-config"
ha-enabled ( RO): false
ha-configuration ( RO):
Where should I look for storage errors? Host? Management server? I have
checked /var/log/messages and there were only regular messages, no
"fence" or "reboot" commands.
I have dedicated NFS server that should be accessible all the time (at
least NIC interfaces are bonded in master-slave mode). Server is used
for both primary and secondary storage.
Thanks,
Vadim.

Hi Vadim,
Not sure what the problem is. Although I do know that when shared
storage is used, both CloudStack and XenServer will fence (reboot) the
box to prevent corruption in case access to the network or the storage
is not possible. What storage do you use?
What does this return on a XenServer?:
xe pool-list params=all | grep -E "ha-enabled|ha-config"
HA should be on, or else a hypervisor crash will not recover properly.
If you search the logs for Fence or reboot, does anything come back?
The logs you mention are nothing to worry about.
Can you tell us in some more details what happens and how we can
reproduce it?
Regards,
Remi

Subject: Re: CS 4.5.2: all hosts reboot after 3 days at production
Hello Remi,
This issue has nothing to do with CS 4.5.2. We got host reboot after
precisely 1 week with previous version of CS (4.5.1). Previous version
has been working without restart for 106 days before. So it is not a
software issue.
What does really make me unhappy -- accidental host reboot made entire
cluster unusable. Cloudstack management server was up and running,
second cluster node was up and running all the time and VM were
transferred to the second host, but System VMs were not rebooted
properly by CS and half of the network was down. SSVM and CPVM were in
"disconnected" status. Client VMs were up, but couldn't connect to
storage, because VRs were offline. Entire mess.
I have used planned maintenance mode before and cluster worked just
perfect. We didn't have any single second downtime. But with accidental
reboot there is no use of clusterization. :(
Vadim.

Hi Vadim,
What kind of storage do you use? Can you show /var/log/xha.log (I
think that is the name) please? It could be xen-ha that fences the box
if the heartbeat cannot be written.
You suggest it is CloudStack. Did you see anything in the mgt logs?
