• Edit /etc/sysconfig/cman to disable quorum (because there's only two nodes on the cluster):

  sed -i.sed "s/.*CMAN_QUORUM_TIMEOUT=.*/CMAN_QUORUM_TIMEOUT=0/g" /etc/sysconfig/cman

• Create a physical volume and a clustered volume group on the DRBD partition. The name of the DRBD disk is /dev/drbd0; the name of the volume group is ADMIN.

  pvcreate /dev/drbd0

• For each logical volume in the volume group, create the volume and install a GFS2 filesystem; for example, the following creates a logical volume usr within the volume group ADMIN:

  lvcreate -L 200G -n usr ADMIN

Initial configuration guide

# I also omit the standard resource options # (e.g., "... op monitor interval="20" timeout="40" depth="0"...) to make the # commands look simpler. This particular option means to check that the # resource is running every 20 seconds, and to declare that the monitor operation # will generate an error if 40 seconds elapse without a response. You can see the # complete list with "crm configure show".

# Start by entering the resource manager.

# The following resources defines how the DRBD resource (AdminDrbd) is to # duplicated ("cloned") among the nodes. The parameters clarify that there are # two copies, one on each node, and both can be the master.

ms AdminClone AdminDrbd meta master-max="2" master-node-max="1" clone-max="2" clone-node-max="1" notify="true" interleave="true"

# The DRBD is available to the system. The next step is to tell LVM # that the volume group ADMIN exists on the disk.

Clustered LVM setup

The following commands only have to be issued on one of the nodes.

• Edit /etc/lvm/lvm.conf on both systems; search this file for the initials WGS for a complete list of changes.
  • Change the filter line to search for DRBD partitions:

    filter = [ "a|/dev/drbd.*|", "a|/dev/md1|", "r|.*|" ]

  • For lvm locking:

    locking_type = 3

• Edit /etc/sysconfig/cman to disable quorum (because there's only two nodes on the cluster):

  sed -i.sed "s/.*CMAN_QUORUM_TIMEOUT=.*/CMAN_QUORUM_TIMEOUT=0/g" /etc/sysconfig/cman

• Create /etc/cluster/cluster.conf to define the two-node Pacemaker configuration, with fencing.

• Create a physical volume and a clustered volume group on the DRBD partition:

  pvcreate /dev/drbd0
  vgcreate -c y ADMIN /dev/drbd0

• For each logical volume in the volume group, create the volume and install a GFS2 filesystem; for example:

  lvcreate -L 200G -n usr ADMIN # ... and so on
  mkfs.gfs2 -p lock_dlm -j 2 -t Nevis_HA:usr /dev/ADMIN/usr

  Note that Nevis_HA is the cluster name defined in /etc/cluster/cluster.conf.

• Make sure that cman, clvm2, and pacemaker daemons will start at boot; on both nodes, do:

  /sbin/chkconfig cman on
  /sbin/chkconfig clvmd on
  /sbin/chkconfig pacemaker on

• Reboot both nodes.

Nevis particle-physics administrative cluster configuration

One-time set-up

The commands to set up a dual-primary cluster are outlined here. The details can be found in Clusters From Scratch and Redhat Cluster Tutorial.

Warning: Do not type any of these commands in the hopes of fixing a problem! They will erase the shared DRBD drive.

DRBD set-up

Edit /etc/drbd.d/global_common.conf and create /etc/drbd.d/admin.res. Then on hypatia:

/sbin/drbdadm create-md admin
/sbin/service drbd start
/sbin/drbdadm up admin

Then on orestes:

/sbin/drbdadm --force create-md admin
/sbin/service drbd start
/sbin/drbdadm up admin

/sbin/drbdadm -- --overwrite-data-of-peer primary admin
cat /proc/drbd

Keeping looking at the contents of /proc/drbd. It will take a while, but eventually the two disks will sync up.

Back to orestes:

/sbin/drbdadm primary admin
cat /proc/drbd

The result should be something like this:

# cat /proc/drbd
version: 8.4.1 (api:1/proto:86-100)
GIT-hash: 91b4c048c1a0e06777b5f65d312b38d47abaea80 build by root@hypatia-tb.nevis.columbia.edu, 2012-02-14 17:04:51

Here's a guide to understanding the contents of /proc/drbd.

Nevis particle-physics administrative cluster configuration

This is a reference page. It contains a text file that describes how the high-availability pacemaker configuration was set up on two administrative servers, hypatia and orestes.

Files

Key HA configuration files. Note: Even in an emergency, there's no reason to edit these files:

/etc/cluster/cluster.conf
/etc/lvm/lvm.conf
/etc/drbd.d/global_common.conf
/etc/drbd.d/admin.res
/home/bin/fence_nut.pl

Commands

The configuration has definitely changed from that listed below. To see the current configuration, run this as root on either hypatia or orestes:

crm configure show

crm_mon

export PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:${PATH}
sudo crm_mon

Concepts

This may help as you work your way through the configuration:

crm configure primitive IP ocf:heartbeat:IPaddr2 params ip=192.168.85.3 \
   cidr_netmask=32 op monitor interval=30s

# Which is composed of
    * crm ::= "cluster resource manager", the command we're executing
    * primitive ::= The type of resource object that we’re creating.
    * IP ::= Our name for the resource
    * IPaddr2 ::= The script to call
    * ocf ::= The standard it conforms to
    * ip=192.168.85.3 ::= Parameter(s) as name/value pairs
    * cidr_netmask ::= netmask; 32-bits means use this exact IP address
    * op ::== what follows are options
    * monitor interval=30s ::= check every 30 seconds that this resource is working

# ... timeout = how to long wait before you assume a resource is dead. 

How to find out which scripts exist, that is, which resources can be controlled by the HA cluster:

crm ra classes

crm ra list ocf heartbeat

crm ra meta ocf:heartbeat:IPaddr2

Configuration

This work was done in Sep-2010, with major revisions for stability in Aug-2011. The configuration has almost certainly changed since then. Hopefully, the following commands and comments will guide you to understanding any future changes and the reasons for them.

# The commands ultimately used to configure the high-availability (HA) servers:

# The beginning: make sure corosync is running on both hypatia and orestes:

/sbin/service corosync start

# The following line is needed because we have only two machines in 
# the HA cluster.

crm configure property no-quorum-policy=ignore

# We'll configure STONITH later (see below)

crm configure property stonith-enabled=false

# An important part of a high-availability configuration is STONITH = "Shoot the
# other node in the head." Here's the idea: suppose one node fails for some reason. The
# other node will take over as needed. 

# Suppose the failed node tries to come up again. This can be a problem: The other node
# may have accumulated changes that the failed node doesn't know about. There can be
# synchronization issues that require manual intervention.

# The STONITH mechanism means: If a node fails, the remaining node(s) in a cluster will
# force a permanent shutdown of the failed node; it can't automatically come back up again.
# This is a special case of "fencing": once a node or resource fails, it can't be allowed
# to start up again automatically.

# In general, there are many ways to implement a STONITH mechanism. At Nevis, the way
# we do it is to shut-off the power on the UPS connected to the failed node.

# (By the way, this is why you have to be careful about restarting hypatia or orestes.
# The STONITH mechanism may cause the UPS on the restarting
# computer to turn off the power; it will never come back up.)

# At Nevis, the UPSes are monitored and controlled using the NUT package
# <http://www.networkupstools.org/>; details are on the Nevis wiki at
# <http://www.nevis.columbia.edu/twiki/bin/view/Nevis/Ups>.

# The official corosync distribution from <http://www.clusterlabs.org/> 
# does not include a script for NUT, so I had to write one. It's located at
# /home/bin/nut.sh on both hypatia and orestes; there are appropriate links
# to this script from the stonith/external directory. 

# By the way, I sent the script to Cluster Labs, who accepted it.
# The next generation of their distribution will include the script.

# The following commands implement the STONITH mechanism for our cluster:

crm

# At this point, the key elements of the high-availability configuration have

# condor jobs.
