The clusterlabs stack incorporates Corosync and Pacemaker in an Open-Source, High Availability stack for both small and large deployments.
It supports a lot of different HA setups and is very flexible.
This puppet module is suitable for the management of both the software stack (pacemaker and corosync) and the cluster resources (via puppet types and providers).
Note: This module is the successor of puppetlabs-corosync.
To install and configure Corosync
class { 'corosync':
authkey => '/var/lib/puppet/ssl/certs/ca.pem',
bind_address => $::ipaddress,
cluster_name => 'mycluster',
enable_secauth => true,
}To enable Pacemaker
corosync::service { 'pacemaker':
version => '0',
}To configure advanced and (very) verbose logging settings
class { 'corosync':
log_stderr => false,
log_function_name => true,
syslog_priority => 'debug',
debug => true,
}To enable Corosync 2 votequorum and define a nodelist of nodes named n1, n2, n3 with auto generated node IDs
class { 'corosync':
set_votequorum => true,
quorum_members => [ 'n1', 'n2', 'n3' ],
}To do the same but with custom node IDs instead
class { 'corosync':
set_votequorum => true,
quorum_members => [ 'n1', 'n2', 'n3' ],
quorum_members_ids => [ 10, 11, 12 ],
}Note: custom IDs may be required when adding or removing nodes to a cluster on a fly. Then each node shall have an unique and persistent ID.
To have multiple rings in the nodelist
class { 'corosync':
set_votequorum => true,
quorum_members => [
['172.31.110.1', '172.31.111.1'],
['172.31.110.2', '172.31.111.2'],
],
}When quorum_members is an array of arrays, each sub array represents one
host IP addresses.
The resources that Corosync will manage can be referred to as a primitive. These are things like virtual IPs or services like drbd, nginx, and apache.
To assign a VIP to a network interface to be used by Nginx
cs_primitive { 'nginx_vip':
primitive_class => 'ocf',
primitive_type => 'IPaddr2',
provided_by => 'heartbeat',
parameters => { 'ip' => '172.16.210.100', 'cidr_netmask' => '24' },
operations => { 'monitor' => { 'interval' => '10s' } },
}Make Corosync manage and monitor the state of Nginx using a custom OCF agent
cs_primitive { 'nginx_service':
primitive_class => 'ocf',
primitive_type => 'nginx_fixed',
provided_by => 'pacemaker',
operations => {
'monitor' => { 'interval' => '10s', 'timeout' => '30s' },
'start' => { 'interval' => '0', 'timeout' => '30s', 'on-fail' => 'restart' }
},
require => Cs_primitive['nginx_vip'],
}Make Corosync manage and monitor the state of Apache using a LSB agent
cs_primitive { 'apache_service':
primitive_class => 'lsb',
primitive_type => 'apache2',
provided_by => 'heartbeat',
operations => {
'monitor' => { 'interval' => '10s', 'timeout' => '30s' },
'start' => { 'interval' => '0', 'timeout' => '30s', 'on-fail' => 'restart' }
},
require => Cs_primitive['apache2_vip'],
}Note: If you have multiple operations with the same names, you have to use an array. Example:
cs_primitive { 'pgsql_service':
primitive_class => 'ocf',
primitive_type => 'pgsql',
provided_by => 'heartbeat',
operations => [
{ 'monitor' => { 'interval' => '10s', 'timeout' => '30s' } },
{ 'monitor' => { 'interval' => '5s', 'timeout' => '30s' 'role' => 'Master', } },
{ 'start' => { 'interval' => '0', 'timeout' => '30s', 'on-fail' => 'restart' } }
],
}If you do mot want Puppet to interfere with manually stopped resources
(e.g not change the target-role metaparameter), you can use the
unmanaged_metadata parameter:
cs_primitive { 'pgsql_service':
primitive_class => 'ocf',
primitive_type => 'pgsql',
provided_by => 'heartbeat',
unmanaged_metadata => ['target-role'],
}Locations determine on which nodes primitive resources run.
cs_location { 'nginx_service_location':
primitive => 'nginx_service',
node_name => 'hostname',
score => 'INFINITY'
}To manage rule on a location. Example to force the location to not run on a container (VM).
cs_location { 'nginx_service_location':
primitive => 'nginx_service',
rules => [
{ 'nginx-service-avoid-container-rule' => {
'score' => '-INFINITY',
'expression' => [
{ 'attribute' => '#kind',
'operation' => 'eq',
'value' => 'container'
},
],
},
},
],
}Example of a virtual ip location that checks ping connectivity for placement.
cs_location { 'vip-ping-connected':
primitive => 'vip',
rules => [
{ 'vip-ping-exclude-rule' => {
'score' => '-INFINITY',
'expression' => [
{ 'attribute' => 'pingd',
'operation' => 'lt',
'value' => '100',
},
],
},
},
{ 'vip-ping-prefer-rule' => {
'score-attribute' => 'pingd',
'expression' => [
{ 'attribute' => 'pingd',
'operation' => 'defined',
}
],
},
},
],
}Example of another possibility to use ping connectivity for placement.
cs_location { 'vip-ping-connected':
primitive => 'vip',
rules => [
{ 'vip-ping-connected-rule' => {
'score' => '-INFINITY',
'boolean-op' => 'or',
'expression' => [
{ 'attribute' => 'pingd',
'operation' => 'not_defined',
},
{ 'attribute' => 'pingd',
'operation' => 'lte',
'value' => '100',
},
],
},
},
],
}Colocations keep primitives together. Meaning if a vip moves to web02 from web01 because web01 just hit the dirt it will drag the nginx service with it.
cs_colocation { 'vip_with_service':
primitives => [ 'nginx_vip', 'nginx_service' ],
}pcs only Advanced colocations are also possible with colocation sets by using arrays instead of strings in the primitives array. Additionally, a hash can be added to the inner array with the specific options for that resource set.
cs_colocation { 'mysql_and_ptheartbeat':
primitives => [
['mysql', {'role' => 'master'}],
[ 'ptheartbeat' ],
],
}cs_colocation { 'mysql_apache_munin_and_ptheartbeat':
primitives => [
['mysql', 'apache', {'role' => 'master'}],
[ 'munin', 'ptheartbeat' ],
],
}Colocation defines that a set of primitives must live together on the same node but order definitions will define the order of which each primitive is started. If Nginx is configured to listen only on our vip we definitely want the vip to be migrated to a new node before nginx comes up or the migration will fail.
cs_order { 'vip_before_service':
first => 'nginx_vip',
second => 'nginx_service',
require => Cs_colocation['vip_with_service'],
}Cloned resources should be active on multiple hosts at the same time. You can clone any existing resource provided the resource agent supports it.
cs_clone { 'nginx_service-clone' :
ensure => present,
primitive => 'nginx_service',
clone_max => 3,
require => Cs_primitive['nginx_service'],
}You can also clone groups:
cs_clone { 'nginx_service-clone' :
ensure => present,
group => 'nginx_group',
clone_max => 3,
require => Cs_primitive['nginx_service'],
}A few global settings can be changed with the "cs_property" section.
Disable STONITH if required.
cs_property { 'stonith-enabled' :
value => 'false',
}Change quorum policy
cs_property { 'no-quorum-policy' :
value => 'ignore',
}You can use the replace parameter to create but not update some values:
cs_property { 'maintenance-mode':
value => 'true',
replace => false,
}A few global settings can be changed with the "cs_rsc_defaults" section.
Don't move resources.
cs_rsc_defaults { 'resource-stickiness' :
value => 'INFINITY',
}In unicast mode, you can have multiple rings by specifying unicast_address and bind_address as arrays:
class { 'corosync':
enable_secauth => true,
authkey => '/var/lib/puppet/ssl/certs/ca.pem',
bind_address => ['10.0.0.1', '10.0.1.1'],
unicast_addresses => [
[ '10.0.0.1',
'10.0.1.1'
], [
'10.0.0.2',
'10.0.1.2'
],
],
}The unicast_addresses is an array of arrays. One sub array matches one host IP addresses. In this example host2 has IP addresses 10.0.0.2 and 10.0.1.2.
Shadow CIB allows you to apply all the changes at the same time. For that, you
need to use the cib parameter and the cs_commit and cs_shadow types.
Shadow CIB is the recommended way to manage large CIB with puppet, as it will apply all your changes at once, starting the cluster when everything is in place: primitives, constraints, properties.
If you set the cib parameter to one cs_* resource we recommend you to set
that cib parameter to all the cs_* resources.
cs_shadow {
'puppet':
}
cs_primitive { 'pgsql_service':
primitive_class => 'ocf',
primitive_type => 'pgsql',
provided_by => 'heartbeat',
cib => 'puppet'
}
cs_commit {
'puppet':
}In Puppet < 4.0, you also need the resources to notify their cs_commit:
Cs_primitive['pgsql_service'] ~> Cs_commit['puppet']Tested and built on Debian 6 using backports so version 1.4.2 of Corosync is validated to function.
We suggest you at least go read the Clusters from Scratch document from Cluster Labs. It will help you out a lot when understanding how all the pieces fall together a point you in the right direction when Corosync/Pacemaker fails unexpectedly.
We do maintain a roadmap regarding next releases of this module.
