PCS Cluster is required for:
- The role LB (Load Balancer), if two load balancers are used for redundancy
- The role STORE (file storage), if two file stores are setup using DRBD for redundancy
If the system does not contain redundancy, do not install this. Only install on the above roles.
Install PCS Services (Both nodes)
Install the PCS packages:
dnf config-manager --set-enabled HighAvailability
dnf -y install pacemaker pcs resource-agents fence-agents-all
systemctl enable pcsd.service
systemctl start pcsd.service |
|
Disable Managed Services (Both nodes)
Disable smb since this will be managed by pacemaker:
Configuration Settings (Both nodes)
Next configure the names of the machines and the virtual IP address which will be shared in the cluster:
JT_HOST1=acd-lb1
JT_HOST2=acd-lb2
PASSWORD=<password> |
|
Configure the Firewall (Both nodes)
Next configure the firewall for ha services:
firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-service=high-availability --permanent
firewall-cmd --reload
|
|
Change user password (Both nodes)
Change the password of the hacluster user (replace <password> with the chosen password):
echo ${PASSWORD} | passwd --stdin hacluster |
|
Cluster Configuration (Only on one node!)
Now configure the cluster and set some basic options - replace <password> with the chosen password:
pcs host auth ${JT_HOST1} ${JT_HOST2} -u hacluster -p ${PASSWORD}
pcs cluster setup jtel_cluster ${JT_HOST1} ${JT_HOST2}
pcs cluster enable --all
pcs cluster start --all
pcs property set stonith-enabled=false
pcs property set no-quorum-policy=ignore
pcs resource defaults migration-threshold=1

Test
Check the results on both machines:
pcs status
# It might take a little time for the cluster to come online. Run the above command, until the cluster comes online on both nodes.
