Description:

Action errors on optional resources are logged but do not interrupt the action sequence.

The status of optional resources is not included in the instance availability status but is considered in the overall status.

The status of task and sync resources is always included in the overall status, regardless of whether they are marked as optional.

Resources tagged as noaction are considered optional by default.

Dump filesystems are a typical use case for optional=true.

Keyword pg_cpu_shares

required:    false
scopable:    true
convert:     size

Example:

pg_cpu_shares=512

Description:

The kernel default value is used, which usually is 1024 shares.

scopable:    true

Example:

pg_mem_oom_control=1

Description:

A flag (0 or 1) that enables or disables the Out of Memory killer for the processes of the group.

  • If enabled (0), tasks that attempt to consume more memory than they are allowed are immediately killed by the OOM killer.

convert:     bool

Description:

If true, OpenSVC will try to promote the exposed devices to read-write on start actions.

Keyword provision

required:    false
scopable:    false
default:     true
convert:     bool

Description:

Set to false to ignore the provision and unprovision actions on the resource.

Warning: provision and unprovision use data-destructive operations like formatting.

It is recommended to set provision=false on long-lived critical objects, to force administrators to remove this setting when they really want to destroy data.

Keyword provision_requires

required:    false
scopable:    false

Example:

provision_requires=ip#0 fs#0(down,stdby down)

Description:

A whitespace-separated list of conditions to meet to accept a ‘provision’ action.

A condition is expressed as <rid>(<state>,...).

If states are omitted, up,stdby up is used as the default expected states.

convert:     duration

Example:

provision_timeout=1m30s

Description:

Wait for <duration> before declaring the action a failure.

Takes precedence over timeout.

Keyword restart

required:    false
scopable:    true
default:     0
convert:     int

Description:

The daemon will try to restart a resource if:

  • The resource is down, stdby down or warn.

  • The instance has local_expect=started in its daemon monitor data, which means the daemon considers this instance is and should remain started.

  • The node is not frozen

  • The instance is not frozen

In this case, the daemon try restart=<n> times before falling back to the monitor action.

The restart_delay keyword sets the interval after a failed restart before the next tentative.

Resources with standby=true have restart forced to a minimum of 2, to increase chances of a restart success.

Keyword restart_delay

required:    false
scopable:    true
default:     500ms
convert:     duration

Description:

A command or script to execute after the resource provision action.

Errors do not interrupt the action.

This trigger is only executed on leaders.

Keyword scsireserv

required:    false
scopable:    false
convert:     bool

Description:

If true, try to acquire a type-5 (write exclusive, registrant only) scsi3 persistent reservation on every path to every disk used by this resource.

Existing reservations are preempted to not block service failover.

If the start was not legitimate the data are still protected from being written concurrently from all nodes.

Keyword secret

required:    false
scopable:    true
default:     {name}

Description:

The name of the sec object hosting the crypt secrets.

The sec object must be in the same namespace than the object defining the disk.crypt resource.

Keyword shared

required:    false
scopable:    true
convert:     bool

Description:

If true, the resource will be considered shared during provision and unprovision actions.

A shared resource driver can implement a different behaviour depending on weither it is run from the leader instance, or not:

  • When --leader is set, the driver creates and configures the system objects. For example the disk.disk driver allocates a SAN disk and discover its block devices.

  • When --leader is not set, the driver does not redo the actions already done by the leader, but may do some. For example, the disk.disk driver skips the SAN disk allocation, but discovers the block devices.

The daemon takes care of setting the --leader flags on the commands it submits during deploy, purge, provision and unprovision orchestrations.

Warning: If admins want to submit --local provision or unprovision commands themselves, they have to set the --leader flag correctly.

Flex objects usually don’t use shared resources. But if they do, only the flex primary gets --leader commands.

Warning: All resources depending on a shared resource must also be flagged as shared.

Keyword size

required:    false
scopable:    true
convert:     size

Description:

The size used by this volume in its pool.

Keyword standby

required:    false
scopable:    true
convert:     bool

Description:

If true, always start the resource, even on non-started instances.

The daemon is responsible for starting standby resources.

A resource can be set standby on a subset of nodes using keyword scoping.

A typical use-case is a synchronized filesystem on non-shared disks. The remote filesystem must be mounted to not overflow the underlying filesystem.

Warning: In most situation, don’t set shared resources standby, a non-clustered fs on shared disks for example.

Keyword start_requires

required:    false
scopable:    false

Example:

start_requires=ip#0 fs#0(down,stdby down)

Description:

A whitespace-separated list of conditions to meet to accept a ‘start’ action.

A condition is expressed as <rid>(<state>,...).

If states are omitted, up,stdby up is used as the default expected states.

Keyword start_timeout

required:    false
scopable:    true
convert:     duration

Example:

start_timeout=1m30s

Description:

Wait for <duration> before declaring the action a failure.

Takes precedence over timeout.

Keyword stat_timeout

required:    false
scopable:    true
convert:     duration

Description:

The fs resources status evaluation includes a stat syscall test. This keyword defines the maximum wait time for those stat calls to respond.

When expired, the resource status is degraded is to warn, which can trigger a monitor action (reboot or crash the node) if the resource is monitored.

Keyword status_timeout

required:    false
scopable:    true
default:     1m
convert:     duration

Example:

status_timeout=10s

Description:

The maximum duration of the instance status evaluation.

For example, the total start action duration is constrained by different timeouts:

  • the start_timeout Limiting the start action duration.

  • the stop_timeout Limiting the start rollback duration triggered by start errors.

  • the status_timeout Limiting the post-start instance status evaluation duration.

Keyword stop_requires

required:    false
scopable:    false

Example:

stop_requires=ip#0 fs#0(down,stdby down)

Description:

A whitespace-separated list of conditions to meet to accept a ‘stop’ action.

A condition is expressed as <rid>(<state>,...).

If states are omitted, up,stdby up is used as the default expected states.

Keyword stop_timeout

required:    false
scopable:    true
convert:     duration

Example:

stop_timeout=1m30s

Description:

Wait for <duration> before declaring the action a failure.

Takes precedence over timeout.

Description:

Wait for <duration> before declaring the action a failure.

Takes precedence over timeout.

Keyword tags

required:    false
scopable:    true
convert:     set

Description:

A whitespace-separated list of tags.

Tags can be used for resource selection by tag.

Some tags can influence the driver behaviour:

  • noaction

    Skip any state changing action on the resource and imply optional=true.

  • nostatus

    Force the status n/a.

Keyword timeout

required:    false
scopable:    true
default:     1h
convert:     duration

Example:

timeout=2h

Description:

Wait for <duration> before declaring a state-changing action a failure.

A per-action <action>_timeout can override this value.
