Re: Change active node in Distributed Geo Replication

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Unfortunately we do not have option to choose Active Workers. Following two modes are supported(Both are automatic)

Node ID:(Default Mode)
----------------------
If a node ID present in first up sub volumes list then the respective worker will become Active, Rest of the workers will be passive. (Note: If multiple bricks present in same node then all worker will become Active irrespective of replica is active) If Active node goes down then next up node from sub volume will become Active.

Meta Volume:
------------
Meta Volume can be used to keep lock files. All workers of a replica group will try to acquire lock, but one worker among replica group will get the lock and becomes active. If a Active Node/Worker goes down then other Passive workers will get lock and become Active.

Look for Meta Volume in the following doc,
http://gluster.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Administrator%20Guide/Distributed%20Geo%20Replication/

We are working on to provide option to choose Active workers manually.(Hopefully this feature will land in 3.10 release(Dec 2016))

Hi folks,

I am using distributed geo replication with 3 Nodes and 1 geo redundant
node.
I want to change the Active node:

root@test1:~# gluster volume geo-replication gldata
192.168.0.104::georeplica status

MASTER NODE           MASTER VOL    MASTER BRICK              SLAVE
USER    SLAVE                       SLAVE NODE      STATUS     CRAWL
STATUS       LAST_SYNCED
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
test1    gldata        /home/glusterfs/bricks    root

test3    gldata        /home/glusterfs/bricks    root
192.168.0.104::georeplica    192.168.0.104    Passive N/A
N/A

Any hints/commands on how to switch Active to test2?

THX, Georg
