==========================================
|
||||
Improve Corosync and Pacemaker management
|
||||
==========================================
|
||||
|
||||
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/fuel/+spec/pacemaker-improvements [1]_
|
||||
|
||||
A next iteration of Corosync & Pacemaker improvements required by scaling
|
||||
requirements, better Pacemaker management and new OS support.
|
||||
|
||||
Problem description
|
||||
===================
|
||||
|
||||
The current Pacemaker implementation has some limitations:
|
||||
|
||||
* Doesn't allow to deploy a large amount of OpenStack Controllers
|
||||
|
||||
* Operations with CIB utilizes almost 100% of CPU on the Controller
|
||||
|
||||
* Corosync shutdown process takes a lot of time
|
||||
|
||||
* No support of new OSes as CentOS 7 or Ubuntu 14.04
|
||||
|
||||
* Current Fuel Architecture is limited to Corosync 1.x and Pacemaker 1.x
|
||||
|
||||
* Puppet service provider for pacemaker doesn't disable Upstart or SystemV
|
||||
services by default
|
||||
|
||||
* At current implementation ordering between resources is not specified
|
||||
|
||||
* Diff operations against Corosync CIB require to save data to file rather
|
||||
than keep all data in memory
|
||||
|
||||
* Debug process of OCF scripts is not unified requires a lot of actions from
|
||||
Cloud Operator
|
||||
|
||||
* Not granular enough
|
||||
|
||||
* Openstack services are not managed by Pacemaker
|
||||
|
||||
* Compute nodes aren't in Pacemaker cluster, hence, are lacking a viable
|
||||
control plane for their's compute/nova services.
|
||||
|
||||
Proposed change
|
||||
===============
|
||||
|
||||
* Support Fuel Controllers with Corosync 2.0 packages
|
||||
|
||||
* Get the puppet corosync module from puppetlabs and integrate it
|
||||
|
||||
* Rename OCF resources. Remove __old from resource names
|
||||
|
||||
* Refactor service provider and include disabling of the same services under
|
||||
systemd/upstart/system v
|
||||
|
||||
* Refactor provider and remove diff operation from files
|
||||
|
||||
* Add wrapper handler for OCF scripts or unify debug handling of OCF scripts
|
||||
|
||||
* Move pacemaker & corosync installation to own stage. Create own corosync.pp
|
||||
to make it more granular
|
||||
|
||||
Permissive change:
|
||||
|
||||
* Add all openstack services to pacemaker and make ordering
|
||||
|
||||
* Use monit as compute nodes' services additional control plane
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatives
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
All changes are not critical and doesn't affect deployment or Cluster
|
||||
Operation
|
||||
|
||||
Data model impact
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
|
||||
None
|
||||
|
||||
REST API impact
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
|
||||
None
|
||||
|
||||
Upgrade impact
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
|
||||
* Since Resources will be renamed Upgrade process should delete old resources
|
||||
on upgrade and delete new resource names on roll back.
|
||||
|
||||
* Corosync 2.x is NOT compatible with previous versions of Corosync (1.3/1.4).
|
||||
Please make sure to upgrade all nodes at once (full-downtime patching)
|
||||
|
||||
Security impact
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
|
||||
None
|
||||
|
||||
Notifications impact
|
||||
--------------------
|
||||
|
||||
None
|
||||
|
||||
Other end user impact
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
None
|
||||
|
||||
Performance Impact
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
* Deployment process will be improved and will require less time as CIB
|
||||
operations will not require 100% CPU time
|
||||
|
||||
* Corosync 2.0 has a lot of improvements that allow to have up to 100
|
||||
Controllers. Corosync 1.0 scales up to 10-16 node
|
||||
|
||||
Other deployer impact
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
None
|
||||
|
||||
Developer impact
|
||||
----------------
|
||||
|
||||
* Enchanced pacemaker provider requires some refactoring of puppet manifests
|
||||
in Fuel Library manifests:
|
||||
|
||||
- Upstream corosync manifests will replace our in-memory diff invention to
|
||||
standard approach: crm or pcs or cibadmin --patch '<xml patch>' directly.
|
||||
|
||||
- Renaming vip primitives could require additional orchestration refactoring
|
||||
as well.
|
||||
|
||||
* New Pacemaker/monit control plane for Openstack services would require
|
||||
appropriate changes in manifests as well.

||||

||||

Work Items
|
||||
----------
|
||||
|
||||
Mandatory items:
|
||||
|
||||
* Replace Corosync 1.0 with Corosync 2.0
|
||||
|
||||
* Synchronize corosync manifest with puppetlabs
|
||||
|
||||
* Refactor puppet service core provider. It should:
|
||||
|
||||
- Disable systemd/upstart/system V when corosync system
|
||||
provider is enabled
|
||||
|
||||
* Redesing puppet manifests to start all OCF scripts via
|
||||
Wrapper
|
||||
|
||||
Permissive items:
|
||||
|
||||
* Add openstack services to Pacemaker
|
||||
|
||||
* Configure ordering between services in Pacemaker
|
||||
|
||||
* Configure monit for compute nodes' Openstack services
|
||||
|
||||
Dependencies
|
||||
============
|
||||
|
||||
* Corosync 2.x packages
|
||||
|
||||
* Monit packages
|
||||
|
||||
Testing
|
||||
=======
|
||||
|
||||
* Standard swarm testing are required.
|
||||
|
||||
* Manual HA testing is required.
|
||||
|
||||
* Rally testing is preffered but not mandatory.
|
||||
|
||||
* New control plane for Openstack services requires manual testing.
|
||||
|
||||
* New debug wrappers for OCF require manual testing.
|
||||
|
||||
Acceptance criteria
|
||||
-------------------
|
||||
|
||||
* Openstack clouds deployed by Fuel are passing OSTF tests with
|
||||
Corosync 2.0 and new Pacemaker/monit control plane for services,
|
||||
if any.
|
||||
|
||||
* Debug wrappers for OCF do produce enough information but aren't too
|
||||
verbouse as well.
|
||||
|
||||
* VIP resources do not contain an _old postfix in their names.
|
||||
|
||||
* Upstart/system V control plane is disabled for services managed via
|
||||
Pacemaker OCF.
|
||||
|
||||
Documentation Impact
|
||||
====================
|
||||
|
||||
* High Availability guide should be reviewed. For Ubuntu, crm tool stays
|
||||
as is, but documentation should be as well enhanced with pcs
|
||||
equivivalents for Centos
|
||||
|
||||
* Upgrade/Patching impact should be described - corosync 2.0 upgrading
|
||||
assumes full downtime for cloud
|
||||
|
||||
* Changes to OCF debugging approach with bash wrappers should be described
|
||||
|
||||
* Renaming of VIP resources should be mentioned
|
||||
|
||||
* In case of Openstack services become managed by Pacemaker + monit, related
|
||||
changes for their new control plane should be described
