Keyword app

required:    false
scopable:    false
default:     default

Description:

A user-defined code linking to:

• who is responsible for this service.
• who is billable.

This code thus provides a most useful object grouping and filtering key.

Short and simple codes, like ERP, are easier to work with.

Keyword comment

required:    false
scopable:    false

Description:

A free form text describing the role of the object, of the node, or of the section it is set in.

The keyword is accepted in any section, so the DEFAULT section can document a configuration as a whole, and a resource, pool, heartbeat, array or network section can document itself.

The agent does not interpret the value.

Keyword drpnodes

required:    false
scopable:    true
convert:     peers

Example:

drpnodes=n1 n2

Description:

A node selector expression specifying the list of cluster nodes hosting object instances when all primary nodes are unavailable, like in a DRP situation.

If not specified or left empty, the node evaluating the keyword is assumed to be the only instance hosting node.

Labels can be used to define a list of nodes by an arbitrary property. For example cn=fr cn=kr would be evaluated as n1 n2 n3 if n1 and n2 have the cn=fr label and n3 has the cn=kr label.

The glob syntax can be used in the node selector expression. For example n1 n[23] n4* would be expanded to n1 n2 n3 n4 in a n1 n2 n3 n4 n5 cluster.

The drpnodes can be data synchronization targets for sync resources.

Keyword env

required:    false
scopable:    false
aliases:     service_type

Default:

The same as the node env.

Description:

A code like PRD, DEV, etc… the agent can use to enforce data protection policies:

• A non-PRD object instance can not be started on a PRD node
• A PRD object instance can be started on a non-PRD node (typically in a DRP situation)

The default value is read from the node env keyword.

Keyword id

required:    false
scopable:    false

Default:

A random generated UUID.

Description:

A rfc4122 random uuid generated by the agent.

Keyword nodes

required:    false
scopable:    true
default:     *
convert:     nodes

Description:

A node selector expression specifying the list of cluster nodes hosting object instances.

If not specified or left empty, the node evaluating the keyword is assumed to be the only instance hosting node.

Labels can be used to define a list of nodes by an arbitrary property. For example cn=fr cn=kr would be evaluated as n1 n2 n3 if n1 and n2 have the cn=fr label and n3 has the cn=kr label.

The glob syntax can be used in the node selector expression. For example n1 n[23] n4* would be expanded to n1 n2 n3 n4 in a n1 n2 n3 n4 n5 cluster.

Keyword share

required:    false
scopable:    false
default:     {namespace}
convert:     list

Example:

share=ns1 ns2

Description:

A list of namespaces that objects are allowed to decode this key-value store keys.

The * special value means all.

By default a key-value store only shares to its own namespace.
