I've forgot to explain:

if I do everything the same (referring sysctl for example)  then the servers 
are not responding in the network anymore.

Which causes this feature?

Best regards
Andrew

Glad it helped. This is my original howto for this kind of setup:

Hi Darren,

thank you for the detailed infos.
I've read out of your messages that in sysctl.conf is nothing special for the 
lo-interface.
This is a very important information! Thank you.

I know that there is a parameter no-quorum=ignore but I've already run into it 
something.
It would be nice to know how to restore quorum if it happens again (what I 
don't believe after your HowTo) because 2-node it just for testing and I will 
also add more nodes.

Thank you at this time.
I am motivated to finish building the cluster.

Regards
Andrew

1. Yes, ldirectord, cluster, real server, resources all on the same machine.

2. /etc/sysctl.conf is (appended to existing default) :
net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_ignore = 1
net.ipv4.conf.eth0.arp_ignore = 1
net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_announce = 2
net.ipv4.conf.eth0.arp_announce = 2

You will need to put non-arping interfaces for VIPs on all nodes:
MYSQL-01:~ # cat /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-lo # Loopback (lo) configuration
IPADDR=127.0.0.1
NETMASK=255.0.0.0
NETWORK=127.0.0.0
BROADCAST=127.255.255.255
IPADDR_2=127.0.0.2/8
STARTMODE=onboot
USERCONTROL=no
FIREWALL=no
IPADDR_VIP=10.167.20.100
NETMASK_VIP=255.255.255.255
NETWORK_VIP=10.167.20.0
BROADCAST_VIP=10.167.20.255
LABEL_VIP='VIP'

The cluster config for the VIP resource requires the lvs_support parameter set:
primitive Virtual-IP ocf:heartbeat:IPaddr2 \
        params lvs_support="true" ip="10.167.20.100" cidr_netmask="24" 
broadcast="10.167.20.255" \
        op monitor interval="1m" timeout="10s" \
        meta migration-threshold="10"

3. STONITH is there for fencing, but failover happens when the node is 
unavailabe, or the resource hits the failcount limit depending on your own 
settings. The Pacemaker documentation at Clusterlabs is excellent for this.

4. Not sure I understand the question. Quorum is taken care of by OpenAIS. If 
you only have a 2-node cluster you need to set the CRM property 
'no-quorum-policy' to 'ignore'.

Regards,
Darren

Hi Darren,

pleased to get notice of someone who uses the same product.
I have lots of questions ;-)

1) Do do you arrange ldirector and real cluster on the same machine?
   Novell documentation do never go into detail so I believe it works.

2) How do you arrange sysctl configs (arp settings) in detail on all servers?

3) How do you arrange fail-over? via stonith ressource? how?

4) I often got the price to run into quorum (at pacemaker). How do you prevent 
it?
   And if the cluster crashes (unexpected shutdown) how do you restore its sync?


Best regards
Andrew

Hello.

We have around 20 nodes of SLES 11 HAE servers running in 2 or 3 node clusters.

All of them are configured with local resources and ldirectord to load-balance 
to the local nodes with a highly available ldirectord resource being able to 
move on failover.

I can give more info if required.

Hi,

I've misstped the arp_announce entries. It should be 2 instead of 1.
After a reboot it looks quite good having only one ldirector.

I am satisfied at the moment.
Novell HAE (High Availability Extension) shipps pacemaker.
I will try to configure it managing ldirector service on both machines but only 
be explicitly active on one node.
And in the backup-case pacemaker should switch.

This sounds clear for me. But in fact, that the sysctl.cf file differs - how 
should this be updated?

Thank you very much till now.
Andrew

Hello Simon,

thank you for your fast response! I am happy for every feedback.
Actually I thought I can have more than one active ldirector (for failover and 
ldirector load balancing).


Well, okay let's do ldirector with one node.
I refer to your Ultramonkey Howto. 

----- On my first node I run ldirector and cluster node --- eth0 is real IP and 
lo:0 is virtual IP. So I do have to arp_announce on lo:0 butnot arp_ignore.
net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_announce = 1 # enable the feature 
net.ipv4.conf.lo.arp_anounce = 1

----- On my second and n+1 node I run only cluster nodes --- eth0 is real IP 
and lo:0 is virtual IP. So I do have to arp_ignore on lo:0 but not arp_announce.
net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_ignore = 1 # enable the feature 
net.ipv4.conf.lo.arp_ignore = 1


Is this correct?

Thank for directing me into right direction.
Andrew

Hi Andreas,

if you want a pair of machines and you want one of them to be the active linux 
director + a real server, and you want the other to be the backup-linux 
director + a real server then yes it is possible, but you need to take special 
care.

1. On the active linux director the VIP should be on lo and
   On the backup-linux director the VIP should be on ethX
   - That is, you need to move the VIP when a machine moves
     from being active to backup and vice versa.
2. The backup-linux director must not have LVS rules in place for the
   service being handled by the active linux director.
   - That is, you need to have ldirectord running on only the active
     linux director. Or in other words, you need to start it
     when a machine becomes active and stop it when it becomes a backup.
3. You have to make sure that arp_ignore and arp_announce are set correctly.

Its a bit old, but I have some notes on this at 
http://www.ultramonkey.org/3/topologies/sl-ha-lb-eg.html

(In relation to ARP you want the "Debian" notes unless  you have a really 
ancient kernel.)
