ONNODE(1) ONNODE(1)
NAME
onnode - run commands on ctdb nodes
SYNOPSIS
onnode [OPTION] ... NODES COMMAND ...
DESCRIPTION
onnode is a utility to run commands on a specific node of a CTDB cluster, or on all nodes.
The NODES option specifies which node to run a command on. You can specify a numeric node number (from 0 to N-1) or a descriptive node
specification (see DESCRIPTIVE NODE SPECIFICATIONS below). You can also specify lists of nodes, separated by commas, and ranges of numeric
node numbers, separated by dashes. If nodes are specified multiple times then the command will be executed multiple times on those nodes.
The order of nodes is significant.
The COMMAND can be any shell command. The onnode utility uses ssh or rsh to connect to the remote nodes and run the command.
DESCRIPTIVE NODE SPECIFICATIONS
The following descriptive node specification can be used in place of numeric node numbers:
all
All nodes.
any
A node where ctdbd is running. This semi-random but there is a bias towards choosing a low numbered node.
ok | healthy
All nodes that are not disconnected, banned, disabled or unhealthy.
con | connected
All nodes that are not disconnected.
lvs | lvsmaster
The current LVS master.
natgw | natgwlist
The current NAT gateway.
rm | recmaster
The current recovery master.
OPTIONS
-c
Execute COMMAND in the current working directory on the specified nodes.
-o <prefix>
Causes standard output from each node to be saved into a file with name <prefix>.<ip>.
-p
Run COMMAND in parallel on the specified nodes. The default is to run COMMAND sequentially on each node.
-q
Do not print node addresses. Normally, onnode prints informational node addresses if more than one node is specified. This overrides
-v.
-n
Allow nodes to be specified by name rather than node numbers. These nodes don't need to be listed in the nodes file. You can avoid the
nodes file entirely by combining this with -f /dev/null.
-f <file>
Specify an alternative nodes file to use instead of the default. This option overrides the CTDB_NODES_FILE environment variable. See
the discussion of /etc/ctdb/nodes in the FILES section for more details.
-v
Print a node addresses even if only one node is specified. Normally, onnode prints informational node addresses when more than one node
is specified.
-h, --help
Show a short usage guide.
EXAMPLES
The following command would show the process ID of ctdb on all nodes
onnode all pidof ctdbd
The following command would show the last 5 lines of log on each node, preceded by the node's hostname
onnode all "hostname; tail -5 /var/log/log.ctdb"
The following command would restart the ctdb service on all nodes.
onnode all service ctdb restart
The following command would run ./foo in the current working directory, in parallel, on nodes 0, 2, 3 and 4.
onnode -c -p 0,2-4 ./foo
ENVIRONMENT
CTDB_NODES_FILE
Name of alternative nodes file to use instead of the default. See the discussion of /etc/ctdb/nodes in the FILES section for more
details.
FILES
/etc/ctdb/nodes
Default file containing a list of each node's IP address or hostname.
Actually, the default is $CTDB_BASE/nodes, where $CTDB_BASE defaults to /etc/ctdb. If a relative path is given (via the -f option or
$CTDB_BASE) and no corresponding file exists relative to the current directory then the file is also searched for in the $CTDB_BASE
directory.
/etc/ctdb/onnode.conf
If this file exists it is sourced by onnode. The main purpose is to allow the administrator to set $SSH to something other than "ssh".
In this case the -t option is ignored. For example, the administrator may choose to use use rsh instead of ssh.
