The only way to be sure if it is appropriate is to test under realistic conditions. I agree that it makes sense to increase it so that it is larger than the TIPC link tolerance. It should be noted that the IMM agent always communicates directly with the IMM node director running on the same node, and for this communication I don't think the TIPC link tolerance is relevant (you will immediately detect if the IMM node director process goes away). However, the IMM node director may in turn have to communicate with IMM processes running on other nodes in the cluster in order to fulfill your request, and for that communication the TIPC link tolerance comes into play. If it needs to communicate in several hops it may even make sense to have a time-out which is several times the TIPC link tolerance (compare with the default values for these time-outs: link tolerance=1.5 seconds and IMMA time-out=10 seconds).

Hi Anders,

Now we want to increase TIPC tolerance from current 10 seconds to 12 or 15, thus we also need to increase a OpenSAF parameter ‘IMMA_SYNCR_TIMEOUT’ from current 12 seconds to a bigger value(20 maybe), do you think 20 seconds is proper for the parameter?

Thanks.

Anders,

As you can see in those logs we had set the TIPC link tolerance to 10 seconds, I’m just not sure how long is proper especially for this case.

I think I can take a try at least, to turn TIPC running on the Ethernet interfaces instead.

Thanks for your comment for the CLM design idea, I understand it definitely would not be easy to make such a change.

Thanks,

Jianfeng

We also tried running TIPC on a bonded interface but ended up having to change it since it never worked well. When you have two redundant Ethernet interfaces, TIPC will tolerate failures in one of them seamlessly without losing connectivity. But when you run TIPC on a bonded interface it doesn't work, as you can see in your case. I guess the reason is that you have two separate mechanisms on top of each other, trying to achieve the same thing. One possible workaround is to increase the TIPC link tolerance.

When we lose connectivity with a node in the cluster, we are expecting that it happened because the other node went down (rebooted or permanently died). We don't expect to re-establish connectivity with the same node unless it has rebooted in between. It would be possible to introduce a grace time to allow a node to stay in the CLM cluster for a while after the connectivity with it has been lost, and allow it to continue as a cluster member if connectivity is re-established before this grace time has expired. However, this is not so easy and it is much easier to increase the TIPC link tolerance and let TIPC handle this for us.

Anders Widell

    it got the reboot command from SC and thus it reboot itself.

    Given that the node has not 'instantiated' completely and a reboot
    order can be treated as a 'failed start up', based on the current
    AMF state,

    AMF can make a decision by reading the
    'saamfnodefailfastoninstantiationfailure' (or perhaps
    'saamfnodeautorepair' ) attribute to reboot or not and report a
    node instantantiation failure (back to the rc script and other
    associated events for that state).

    Thanks,

    Mathi.

        Thanks Anders, much appreciate.

        And yes, in PLD we run TIPC on a bonded interface which
        comprises two Ethernet interfaces.
        I'm wondering why a bonding interface can't provide similar
        protection like TIPC does, is it because TIPC is more robust
        or something else? I'm not sure if it is right to change the
        low-level design at this time point for our product, I will
        talk with my workmates on this change and find more details in
        TIPC manual.

        Regarding to OpenSAF part, do you guys think is it possible
        that SC do not force rebooting the PLD in this case? After all
        the connection recovered quickly.

        Hi!

        Are you running TIPC on a bonded interface? I wouldn't
        recommend this.
        Instead, you should run TIPC on the raw Ethernet interfaces
        and let TIPC handle the link fail-over in case of a failure in
        one of them. TIPC should be able to do this without ever
        losing the connectivity between the nodes.
