RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fixed In Version: pacemaker-1.1.13-10.el7_2.2
Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
The pacemaker_remote service can now be stopped on an active Pacemaker Remote node, and the cluster gracefully migrates resources off the node before stopping the node. Previously, Pacemaker Remote nodes had to be taken out of the cluster before stopping the pacemaker_remote service, either explicitly or implicitly by commands such as "yum update", otherwise the node was fenced. Now, software upgrades and other routine maintenance are significantly easier to perform on Pacemaker Remote nodes. Note that all nodes in the cluster must be upgraded to a version supporting this feature before the feature can be used on any node.

Description Jan Kurik 2016-01-18 07:50:34 UTC 
This bug has been copied from bug #1288929 and has been proposed
to be backported to 7.2 z-stream (EUS).
Comment 4 Ken Gaillot 2016-01-18 18:29:33 UTC 
QA: reproducer is to configure a cluster with a Pacemaker Remote node, then run "systemctl stop pacemaker_remote" on the node while it is in the cluster.

Previously, the node would be fenced; now, all resources will be moved off the node and it will gracefully stop. This should work the same for remote nodes (configured with ocf:pacemaker:remote resource) and guest nodes (configured with remote-node= attribute on a VM resource).
Comment 7 Ken Gaillot 2016-01-25 21:51:53 UTC 
QA: I should have mentioned, that after a graceful stop, the cluster will immediately try to connect to the remote node again. If the remote node is not accepting connections again before the start timeout, the start will fail (and move on to another node if available, and potentially time out there, too). If start times out on all nodes, the cluster will stop trying to reconnect. If a failure-timeout has been configured for the start operation, it will begin retrying again after that time.

This is necessary because all remote connections must be initiated from the cluster side, so there is no way for a newly started remote node to signal the cluster it is available. This may be changed in the future, but for now, start failures are expected if the remote node is down for an extended time -- it is only the stopping that is graceful now.
Comment 12 Ken Gaillot 2016-01-27 00:44:52 UTC 
An issue in the implementation, with the symptom of a second stop hanging, was found, and fixed upstream as of commit 942efa4. An updated build has been added to the errata.
