GROUPD(8) cluster GROUPD(8)NAME
groupd - compatibility daemon for fenced, dlm_controld and gfs_controld
SYNOPSIS
groupd [OPTIONS]
DESCRIPTION
The groupd daemon and libgroup library are used by the fenced, dlm_controld and gfs_controld daemons when they are operating in clus-
ter2-compatible mode to perform a rolling cluster upgrade from cluster2 to cluster3.
See cman(5) for more information on the upgrading configuration option needed to perform a rolling upgrade.
When the upgrading option is enabled, cman adds the following to the online configuration:
<group groupd_compat="1"/>
This setting causes the cman init script to start the groupd daemon, and causes the groupd, fenced, dlm_controld and gfs_controld daemons
to operate in the old cluster2 mode so they will be compatible with cluster2 nodes in the cluster that have not yet been upgraded.
The upgrading setting, including the groupd_compat setting, cannot be changed in a running cluster. The entire cluster must be taken off-
line to change these because the new cluster3 default modes are not compatible with the old cluster2 modes. The upgrading/compat settings
cause the new cluster3 daemons to run the old cluster2 code and protocols.
OPTIONS
Command line options override a corresponding setting in cluster.conf.
-D Enable debugging to stderr and don't fork.
-L Enable debugging to log file.
-g num groupd compatibility mode, 0 off, 1 on. Default 0.
-h Print a help message describing available options, then exit.
-V Print program version information, then exit.

CLUSTER.CONF(5) cluster CLUSTER.CONF(5)NAME
cluster.conf - configuration file for cman and related daemons
SYNOPSIS
/etc/cluster/cluster.conf
DESCRIPTION
When cman_tool(8) starts the corosync(8) daemon, the cluster.conf data is read into the corosync in-memory database (confdb). The configu-
ration is used by corosync, cman and other related cluster daemons and programs. When cman configures corosync with cluster.conf, the
corosync.conf(5) file is not used.
A basic cluster configuration is described below. Configuration options for other daemons/programs are described in their own man pages.
ccs_tool(8) can be used to do some basic cluster.conf editing.
The cluster.rng schema is used to validate cluster.conf. Unrecognized items will produce a warning during cluster startup, and invalid xml
structure will cause the cluster startup to fail. See ccs_config_validate(8) and ccs_config_dump(8).
Cluster
The top level cluster section contains all other sections and has two required attributes:
name The name of the cluster can be up to 15 characters long (16 including terminating null). It is important that this name be unique
among clusters on the same network.
config_version
The config_version specifies the revision level of the file and should be increased each time the file is updated.
<cluster name="alpha" config_version="1">
</cluster>
Cluster Nodes
The set of nodes that make up the cluster are defined in the clusternodes section which contains multiple clusternode sections. A clus-
ternode has two required attributes:
name The node name should correspond to the hostname on the network interface to be used for cluster communication.
nodeid The node id must be greater than zero and unique.
<cluster name="alpha" config_version="1">
<clusternodes>
<clusternode name="node-01" nodeid="1">
</clusternode>
<clusternode name="node-02" nodeid="2">
</clusternode>
<clusternode name="node-03" nodeid="3">
</clusternode>
</clusternodes>
</cluster>
Logging
Cluster daemons use a common logging section to configure their loggging behavior.
<cluster name="alpha" config_version="1">
<logging/>
</cluster>
Global settings apply to all:
<logging debug="on"/>
Per-daemon logging_daemon subsections override the global settings. Daemon names that can be configured include: corosync, qdiskd, groupd,
fenced, dlm_controld, gfs_controld, rgmanager.
<logging>
<logging_daemon name="qdiskd" debug="on"/>
<logging_daemon name="fenced" debug="on"/>
</logging>
Corosync daemon settings apply to all corosync subsystems by default, but subsystems can also be configured individually. These include
CLM, CPG, MAIN, SERV, CMAN, TOTEM, QUORUM, CONFDB, CKPT, EVT.
<logging>
<logging_daemon name="corosync" subsys="QUORUM" debug="on"/>
<logging_daemon name="corosync" subsys="CONFDB" debug="on"/>
</logging>
The attributes available at global, daemon and subsystem levels are:
to_syslog
enable/disable messages to syslog (yes/no), default "yes"
to_logfile
enable/disable messages to log file (yes/no), default "yes"
syslog_facility
facility used for syslog messages, default "daemon"
syslog_priority
messages at this level and up will be sent to syslog, default "info"
logfile_priority
messages at this level and up will be written to log file, default "info"
logfile
the log file name, default /var/log/cluster/<daemon>.log
debug="on"
a shortcut for logfile_priority="debug"
EXAMPLE
An explicit configuration for the default settings would be:
<logging to_syslog="yes" to_logfile="yes" syslog_facility="daemon"
syslog_priority="info" logfile_priority="info">
<logging_daemon name="qdiskd"
logfile="/var/log/cluster/qdiskd.log"/>
<logging_daemon name="fenced"
logfile="/var/log/cluster/fenced.log"/>
<logging_daemon name="dlm_controld"
logfile="/var/log/cluster/dlm_controld.log"/>
<logging_daemon name="gfs_controld"
logfile="/var/log/cluster/gfs_controld.log"/>
<logging_daemon name="rgmanager"
logfile="/var/log/cluster/rgmanager.log"/>
<logging_daemon name="corosync"
logfile="/var/log/cluster/corosync.log"/>
</logging>
To include debug messages (and above) from all daemons in their default log files, either of the following which are equivalent:
<logging debug="on"/>
<logging logfile_priority="debug"/>
To exclude all log messages from syslog:
<logging to_syslog="no"/>
To disable logging to all log files:
<logging to_file="no"/>
To include debug messages (and above) from all daemons in syslog:
<logging syslog_priority="debug"/>
To limit syslog messages to error (and above), keeping info (and above) in log files (this logfile_priority setting is the default so could
be omitted):
<logging syslog_priority="error" logfile_priority="info"/>
