815666 – luci and unfencing when delay set in fence method

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.

Description Kapetanakis Giannis 2012-04-24 08:14:46 UTC

Hi,

I've added 'delay' option yesterday in my <fence><method><device> in /etc/cluster/cluster.conf and luci now thinks that I don't have unfence enabled for this device

      <clusternode name="server1" nodeid="1">
         <fence>
            <method name="server1_san">
               <device delay="10" name="san" port="4"/>
               <device delay="10" name="san" port="5"/>
            </method>
            <method name="server1_drac">
               <device delay="10" name="fence_drac_server1"/>
            </method>
         </fence>
         <unfence>
            <device action="enable" name="san" option="enable" port="4"/>
            <device action="enable" name="san" option="enable" port="5"/>
         </unfence>
      </clusternode>
      <clusternode name="server2" nodeid="2">
         <fence>
            <method name="server2_san">
               <device name="san" port="6"/>
               <device name="san" port="7"/>
            </method>
            <method name="server2_drac">
               <device name="fence_drac_server2"/>
            </method>
         </fence>
         <unfence>
            <device action="enable" name="san" option="enable" port="6"/>
            <device action="enable" name="san" option="enable" port="7"/>
         </unfence>
      </clusternode>
   </clusternodes>
...
<fencedevice agent="fence_brocade" ipaddr="xx.xx.xx.xx" login="user" name="san" passwd="pass"/>

For server1 it reports:

Fence Devices
Method 		
server1_san 		Move Down 	Remove
	
Name 	Type/Values 	
san 	Brocade Switch 	
	delay : 10
	port : 4
san 	Brocade Switch 	
	delay : 10
	port : 5 

If you click on "san" then unfencing is not enabled. However unfencing works.
When cman starts unfencing is performed.

For server2 it reports:
Fence Devices

Method 		
server2_san 		Move Down 	Remove
	
Name 	Type/Values 	
san 	Brocade Switch 	
	port : 6
	unfencing enabled
san 	Brocade Switch 	
	port : 7
	unfencing enabled

regards,

Giannis
ps.
luci-0.23.0-32.el6
cman-3.0.12.1-23

Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2012-07-10 05:51:15 UTC

This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 5 RHEL Program Management 2012-07-10 23:55:19 UTC

This request was erroneously removed from consideration in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4, which is currently under development.  This request will be evaluated for inclusion in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4.

    luci: Fix unfence display on node page
    
    When looking for <device> blocks that match <unfence> blocks, only
    compare attributes that are pertinent for determining whether
    one blocks corresponds to the other.

Comment 13 Jan Pokorný [poki] 2013-01-30 15:39:05 UTC

I am not completely sure such config with "delay" would successfully
validate (ccs_config_validate, triggered also upon starting the cluster).

Comment 15 Jan Pokorný [poki] 2013-02-08 11:58:33 UTC

Re [comment 14]:
Well, it would indeed validate because restrictions based on universal
references (e.g., through a custom identifier) and perhaps even based
on known attribute value (to be found out) cannot be enforced in RELAX NG
schema and the respective validating test is like this:

  if the set of attributes w/o "name" is a subset of attributes sets
  defined for particular fence agents, then the result of this
  validation part is OK

In the case in [comment 0], it will pass because this condition holds,
for example for the set of attributes defined for "fence_apc" (which
includes both "port" and "delay").

As a consequence, I filed a new bug in the current "semantic validation"
wave: [bug 909133].
