Hi all,

I am happy to announce a feature that was discussed on this list a
while back. It will be in Pacemaker 2.0.4 (the first release candidate
is expected in about three weeks).

A longstanding concern in two-node clusters is that in a split brain,
one side must get a fencing delay to avoid simultaneous fencing of both
nodes, but there is no perfect way to determine which node gets the
delay.

The most common approach is to configure a static delay on one node.
This is particularly useful in an active/passive setup where one
particular node is normally assigned the active role.

Another approach is to use the relatively new fence_heuristics_ping
agent in a topology with your real fencing agent. A node that can ping
a configured IP will be more likely to survive.

In addition, we now have a new cluster-wide property, priority-fencing-
delay, that bases the delay on what resources were known to be active
where just before the split. If you set the new property, and configure
priorities for your resources, the node with the highest combined
priority of all resources running on it will be more likely to survive.

As an example, if you set a default priority of 1 for all resources,
and set priority-fencing-delay to 15s, then the node running the most
resources will be more likely to survive because the other node will
wait 15 seconds before initiating fencing. If a particular resource is
more important than the rest, you can give it a higher priority.


That sounds good except one consideration. "priority" also affects
resource placement, and changing it may have rather unexpected results,
especially in cases when scores are carefully selected to achieve
resource distribution.

Despite the fact that resource locations and placement-strategy are more for that purpose, it's true that resource priority now could imply more things, which users might want to think through for either new deployments or existing ones.

Thanks for the thorough introduction, Ken.

Regards,
  Yan


The master role of promotable clones will get an extra 1 point, if a
priority has been configured for that clone.

If both nodes have equal priority, or fencing is needed for some reason
other than node loss (e.g. on-fail=fencing for some monitor), then the
usual delay properties apply (pcmk_delay_base, etc.).

I'd like to recognize the primary authors of the 2.0.4 features
announced so far:
- shutdown locks: myself
- switch to clock_gettime() for monotonic clock: Jan Pokorný
- crm_mon --include/--exclude: Chris Lumens
- priority-fencing-delay: Gao,Yan
