[pve-devel] Plans to Soft Fence

[Cesar Peschiera]

@Gilberto:
First that all, please post the messages to the pve-devel mailing list, so all people can read and correct anything that to be wrong said.

Moreover, i do of this mode and order:

1) I wait that a node has some kind of problem
2) I analyze the problem (for example, maybe be a problem with some card)
3) If the problem is serious,  i manually disconnect  the electric energy of the node with problems
4) From some node that is alive, i execute manually:
/usr/sbin/fence_ack_manual <ip address or name of the node>


5) Enjoy of HA

Notes:
A) I prefer this mode because will be possible to analyze the problem patiently before of apply the manual fence. Also we must consider that if we don't have a fence device by Hardware, any other option is dangerous and the security of your information will be very committed.
B) Also is possible to apply a bash-script in the crontab for get a automatic mode, but i know that it is very dangerous, and i don't want have it.

  Hi Cesar


  Do you know how can I trigger fence_ack automatically??

  Same sort of shell scripts... Whatever...

    Also remember that "fence_ack_manual" is available, that it is a soft fence,
    it don't need a hardware of fence device, and only works when we don't have
    network communication with the node that have some kind of problem.

        fence_pve?? I can't found out such fence here... Perhaps I miss some
        packet?
        Where can I found it??


      That is only in newest version from git. But again, this is not suitable
      for
      real fencing.
