I tried working with a few of these suggestions but the issue doesn't seem to be there. All of them were configured the same way for the status page.

After rebooting all of the nodes, two of the ClusterIP resources wound up on the same node, and "relocate run ClusterIP-clone" would not resolve this. I ended up taking the node with the duplicate out of the cluster (pcs cluster stop) and then adding it back in - this allowed that to run, and for some reason, the web site is on all three nodes now.

So far the cluster behavior seems a bit flaky; maybe it is something odd in the configuration, but while I can understand how two of the IP resources would wind up on the same node initially, I'm not sure why I would need to take a node out of the cluster like that to fix it?

In some cases I've needed to reboot the nodes multiple times to get the cluster to start behaving again after reboots of nodes for other reasons; rebooting one of the three nodes sometimes causes the cluster-data-clone (file system) to restart or even just be completely lost on all of the nodes, and I've had to reboot a few times to get it back. I could understand that with two nodes down (and it should effectively take the filesystem down in that case), but with just one going down that seems to be a problem.

Still experimenting and exploring.


Thank you!

Hi,

I'm new to the software, and with the list - just started experimenting
with trying to get a cluster working using CentOS 7 and the pcs utility,
and I've made some progress, but I can't quite figure out why I'm seeing
this one behavior - hoping someone can help, might be something simple I
haven't picked up on yet.

I have three nodes configured (running under VirtualBox) with shared
storage using GFS2 - that much seems to be working ok.

I have a service called "WebSite" representing the Apache configuration,
and I cloned that to create "WebSite-clone", which I would expect to run
instances of on all three nodes.

However, if I leave "globally-unique" off, it will only run on one node,
where if I turn it on, it will run on two, but never on all three.  I've
tried a number of things to get this working.  I did verify that I can
manually start and stop Apache on all three nodes and it works on any of
them that way.
You don't want globally-unique=true; that's for cases where you want to
be able to run multiple instances of the service on the same machine if
necessary, because each clone handles different requests.

Currently my status looks like this (with globally-unique set to false;
"cluster-data" is my GFS2 filesystem):

Cluster name: lincl
Last updated: Sat Feb 13 20:58:26 2016        Last change: Sat Feb 13
20:45:08 2016 by root via crm_resource on lincl2-hb
Stack: corosync
Current DC: lincl2-hb (version 1.1.13-10.el7-44eb2dd) - partition with
quorum
3 nodes and 13 resources configured

Online: [ lincl0-hb lincl1-hb lincl2-hb ]

Full list of resources:

  kdump    (stonith:fence_kdump):    Started lincl0-hb
  Clone Set: dlm-clone [dlm]
      Started: [ lincl0-hb lincl1-hb lincl2-hb ]
  Master/Slave Set: cluster-data-clone [cluster-data]
      Slaves: [ lincl0-hb lincl1-hb lincl2-hb ]
  Clone Set: ClusterIP-clone [ClusterIP] (unique)
      ClusterIP:0    (ocf::heartbeat:IPaddr2):    Started lincl2-hb
      ClusterIP:1    (ocf::heartbeat:IPaddr2):    Started lincl0-hb
      ClusterIP:2    (ocf::heartbeat:IPaddr2):    Started lincl1-hb
  Clone Set: WebSite-clone [WebSite]
      Started: [ lincl0-hb ]
      Stopped: [ lincl1-hb lincl2-hb ]
The above says that the cluster successfully started a WebSite instance
on lincl0-hb, but it is for some reason prevented from doing so on the
other two nodes.

Failed Actions:
* WebSite:0_start_0 on lincl2-hb 'unknown error' (1): call=142,
status=Timed Out, exitreason='Failed to access httpd status page.',
     last-rc-change='Sat Feb 13 19:55:45 2016', queued=0ms, exec=120004ms
This gives a good bit of info:

* The "start" action on the "WebSite" resource failed no node lincl2-hb.

* The failure was a timeout. The start action did not return in the
configured (or default) time.

* The reason given by the apache resource agent was "Failed to access
httpd status page".

* WebSite:2_start_0 on lincl2-hb 'unknown error' (1): call=130,
status=Timed Out, exitreason='none',
     last-rc-change='Sat Feb 13 19:33:49 2016', queued=0ms, exec=40003ms

PCSD Status:
   lincl0-hb: Online
   lincl1-hb: Online
   lincl2-hb: Online

Daemon Status:
   corosync: active/enabled
   pacemaker: active/enabled
   pcsd: active/enabled



I'm not sure how to further troubleshoot those "Failed Actions" or how
to clear them from the display?
Pacemaker relies on what the resource agent tells it, so when the
resource agent fails, you'll have to look at that rather than pacemaker
itself. Often, agents will print more detailed messages to the system
log. Otherwise, just verifying the resource configuration and so forth
is a good idea.

In this case, the big hint is the status page. The apache resource agent
relies on the /server-status URL to verify that apache is running.
Double-check that apache's configuration is identical on all nodes,
particularly the /server-status configuration.

Once you've addressed the root cause of a failed action, you can clear
it from the display with "pcs resource cleanup" -- see "man pcs" for the
options it takes.

Another good idea is (with the cluster stopped) to ensure you can start
apache manually on each node and see the server-status URL from that
node (using curl or wget or whatever).

Configuration of the WebSite-clone looks like:

[root@lincl2 /]# pcs resource show WebSite-clone
  Clone: WebSite-clone
   Meta Attrs: globally-unique=false clone-node-max=1 clone-max=3
interleave=true
   Resource: WebSite (class=ocf provider=heartbeat type=apache)
    Attributes: configfile=/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
statusurl=http://localhost/server-status
    Operations: start interval=0s timeout=120s (WebSite-start-interval-0s)
                stop interval=0s timeout=60s (WebSite-stop-interval-0s)
                monitor interval=1min (WebSite-monitor-interval-1min)



Now I change globally-unique to true, and this happens:

[root@lincl2 /]# pcs resource update WebSite-clone globally-unique=true
[root@lincl2 /]# pcs resource
  Clone Set: dlm-clone [dlm]
      Started: [ lincl0-hb lincl1-hb lincl2-hb ]
  Master/Slave Set: cluster-data-clone [cluster-data]
      Slaves: [ lincl0-hb lincl1-hb lincl2-hb ]
  Clone Set: ClusterIP-clone [ClusterIP] (unique)
      ClusterIP:0    (ocf::heartbeat:IPaddr2):    Started lincl2-hb
      ClusterIP:1    (ocf::heartbeat:IPaddr2):    Started lincl0-hb
      ClusterIP:2    (ocf::heartbeat:IPaddr2):    Started lincl1-hb
  Clone Set: WebSite-clone [WebSite] (unique)
      WebSite:0    (ocf::heartbeat:apache):    Started lincl0-hb
      WebSite:1    (ocf::heartbeat:apache):    Started lincl1-hb
      WebSite:2    (ocf::heartbeat:apache):    Stopped


Constraints are set up as follows:

[root@lincl2 /]# pcs constraint
Location Constraints:
Ordering Constraints:
   start dlm-clone then start cluster-data-clone (kind:Mandatory)
   start ClusterIP-clone then start WebSite-clone (kind:Mandatory)
   start cluster-data-clone then start WebSite-clone (kind:Mandatory)
Colocation Constraints:
   cluster-data-clone with dlm-clone (score:INFINITY)
   WebSite-clone with ClusterIP-clone (score:INFINITY)
   WebSite-clone with cluster-data-clone (score:INFINITY)





As far as I can tell, there is no activity in the Apache log files from
pcs trying to start it and it failing or taking too long - it seems that
it never gets far enough for Apache itself to be trying to start.


Can someone give me ideas on how to further troubleshoot this? Ideally
I'd like it running one instance on each available node.
