Yan, klaus and Everyone,


  Merry Christmas!!!



Many thanks for your advice!
I added the "-v" param in "SBD_OPTS", but didn't see any apparent change in the system message log,  am i looking at a wrong place?
Did you restart all cluster services, for example by "crm cluster stop" and then "crm cluster start"? Basically sbd.service needs to be restarted. Be aware "systemctl restart pacemaker" only restarts pacemaker.

SBD daemons log into syslog. When a sbd watcher receives a "test" command, there should be a syslog like this showing up:

"servant: Received command test from ..."

sbd won't actually do anything about a "test" command but logging a message.

If you are not running a late version of sbd (maintenance update) yet, a single "-v" will make sbd too verbose already. But of course you could use grep.


By the way, we want to test when the disk access paths (multipath devices) lost, the sbd can fence the node automatically.
Be aware since pacemaker integration (-P) is enabled by default, which means despite the sbd failure, if the node itself was clean and "healthy" from pacemaker's point of view and if it's in the cluster partition with the quorum, it wouldn't self-fence -- meaning a node just being unable to fence doesn't necessarily need to be fenced.

As described in sbd man page, "this allows sbd to survive temporary outages of the majority of devices. However, while the cluster is in such a degraded state, it can neither successfully fence nor be shutdown cleanly (as taking the cluster below the quorum threshold will immediately cause all remaining nodes to self-fence). In short, it will not tolerate any further faults. Please repair the system before continuing."

  Yan


what's your recommendation for this scenario?







The "crm node fence"  did the work.

Hello Experts,

I'm New to this mail lists.
Pls kindlyforgive me if this mail has disturb you!

Our Company recently is evaluating the usage of the SuSE HAE on x86 platform. Wen simulating the storage disaster fail-over, i finally found that the SBD communication functioned normal on SuSE11 SP4 but abnormal on SuSE12 SP3.

I have no experience with SBD on SLES but I know that handling of the
logging verbosity-levels has changed recently in the upstream-repo.
Given that it was done by Yan Gao iirc I'd assume it went into SLES.
So changing the verbosity of the sbd-daemon might get you back
these logs.
Yes, I think it's the issue. Could you please retrieve the latest
maintenance update for SLE12SP3 and try? Otherwise of course you could
temporarily enable verbose/debug logging by adding a couple of "-v" into
   "SBD_OPTS" in /etc/sysconfig/sbd.

But frankly, it makes more sense to manually trigger fencing for example
by "crm node fence" and see if it indeed works correctly.

And of course you can use the list command on the other node
to verify as well.
The "test" message in the slot might get overwritten soon by a "clear"
if the sbd daemon is running.

The SBD device was added during the initialization of the first cluster node.

I have requested help from SuSE guys, but they didn't give me any valuable feedback yet now!


Below are some screenshots to explain what i have encountered.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

on a SuSE11 SP4 HAE cluster,  i  run the sbd test command as below:


then there will be some information showed up in the local system message log



on the second node,  we can found that the communication is normal by



but when i turn to a SuSE12 SP3 HAE cluster,  ran the same command as above:



I didn't get any  response in the system message log.


"systemctl status sbd" also doesn't give me any clue on this.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

What could be the reason for this abnormal behavior?  Is there any problems with my setup?
Any suggestions are appreciate!

Thanks!


Regards
FuLong
