Hi, I would like to enquire on integration of Monit and Heartbeat. I have created a pair of primary/slave servers such that primary will failover to the slave, but slave will not failback to primary when something goes wrong. I wanted this behaviour so that there will not be any flipflop cases in situation where it is not recoverable such as internet connection goes offline for a long period of time.
Meanwhile I'm using hb_standby utility as a way to initiate a failover from the primary. I wanted by scripts on the pair of servers to be consistent for easy maintainance, hence both monitrc script will exec hb_standby based on service failure scenarios. This is causing a flipflop situation, is there any other means of initiating a failover such that if a failover is initiated in heartbeat, it will honour the settings in ha.cf where if auto_failback is off, then even if the service died in the slave server, failback will not occur? I assume hb_standby will not work in the current situation ? Anyone with solutions ?
