+Rules
+-----
+
+Rules can be used to make your configuration more dynamic, allowing values to
+change depending on the time or the value of a node attribute. Examples of
+things rules are useful for:
+
+* Set a higher value for :ref:`resource-stickiness <resource-stickiness>`
+ during working hours, to minimize downtime, and a lower value on weekends, to
+ allow resources to move to their most preferred locations when people aren't
+ around to notice.
+
+* Automatically place the cluster into maintenance mode during a scheduled
+ maintenance window.
+
+* Assign certain nodes and resources to a particular department via custom
+ node attributes and meta-attributes, and add a single location constraint
+ that restricts the department's resources to run only on those nodes.
+
+Each constraint type or property set that supports rules may contain one or more
+``rule`` elements specifying conditions under which the constraint or properties
+take effect. Examples later in this chapter will make this clearer.

+ | role | ``Started`` | .. index:: |
+ | | | pair: rule; role |
+ | | | |
+ | | | The rule is in effect only when the |
+ | | | resource is in the specified role. |
+ | | | Allowed values are ``Started``, |
+ | | | ``Unpromoted``, and ``Promoted``. A rule |
+ | | | with a ``role`` of ``Promoted`` cannot |
+ | | | determine the initial location of a clone |
+ | | | instance and will only affect which of |
+ | | | the active instances will be promoted. |
+ +-----------------+-------------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | score | | .. index:: |
+ | | | pair: rule; score |
+ | | | |
+ | | | If this rule is used in a location |
+ | | | constraint and evaluates to true, apply |
+ | | | this score to the constraint. Only one of |
+ | | | ``score`` and ``score-attribute`` may be |
+ | | | used. |
+ +-----------------+-------------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | score-attribute | | .. index:: |
+ | | | pair: rule; score-attribute |
+ | | | |
+ | | | If this rule is used in a location |
+ | | | constraint and evaluates to true, use the |
+ | | | value of this node attribute as the score |
+ | | | to apply to the constraint. Only one of |
+ | | | ``score`` and ``score-attribute`` may be |
+ | | | used. |
+ +-----------------+-------------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | boolean-op | ``and`` | .. index:: |
+ | | | pair: rule; boolean-op |
+ | | | |
+ | | | If this rule contains more than one |
+ | | | condition, a value of ``and`` specifies |
+ | | | that the rule evaluates to true only if |
+ | | | all conditions are true, and a value of |
+ | | | ``or`` specifies that the rule evaluates |
+ | | | to true if any condition is true. |
+ +-----------------+-------------+-------------------------------------------+
+
+A ``rule`` element must contain one or more conditions. A condition may be an
+``expression`` element, a ``date_expression`` element, or another ``rule`` element.

+ | | * ``gt:`` True if the current date/time is after ``start``|
+ | | * ``lt:`` True if the current date/time is before ``end`` |
+ | | * ``in_range:`` True if the current date/time is after |
+ | | ``start`` (if specified) and before either ``end`` (if |
+ | | specified) or ``start`` plus the value of the |
+ | | ``duration`` element (if one is contained in the |
+ | | ``date_expression``). If both ``end`` and ``duration`` |
+ | | are specified, ``duration`` is ignored. |

+ | | |

+ | moon | .. index:: |
+ | | pair: moon; date_spec |
+ | | |
+ | | Allowed values are 0-7 (where 0 is the new moon and 4 is |
+ | | full moon). *(deprecated since 2.1.6)* |
+ +---------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+
+
+For example, ``monthdays="1"`` matches the first day of every month, and
+``hours="09-17"`` matches the hours between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. (inclusive).
+
+At this time, multiple ranges (e.g. ``weekdays="1,2"`` or ``weekdays="1-2,5-6"``)
+are not supported.
+
+.. note:: Pacemaker can calculate when evaluation of a ``date_expression`` with
+ an ``operation`` of ``gt``, ``lt``, or ``in_range`` will next change,
+ and schedule a cluster re-check for that time. However, it does not
+ do this for ``date_spec``. Instead, it evaluates the ``date_spec``
+ whenever a cluster re-check naturally happens via a cluster event or
+ the ``cluster-recheck-interval`` cluster option.
+
+ For example, if you have a ``date_spec`` enabling a resource from 9
+ a.m. to 5 p.m., and ``cluster-recheck-interval`` has been set to 5
+ minutes, then sometime between 9 a.m. and 9:05 a.m. the cluster would
+ notice that it needs to start the resource, and sometime between 5
+ p.m. and 5:05 p.m. it would realize that it needs to stop the
+ resource. The timing of the actual start and stop actions will
+ further depend on factors such as any other actions the cluster may
+ need to perform first, and the load of the machine.

+Example Operation-Based Expressions
+___________________________________
+
+A small sample of how operation-based expressions can be used:
+
+.. topic:: True for all monitor actions
+
+ .. code-block:: xml
+
+ <rule id="rule1" score="INFINITY">
+ <op_expression id="rule_expr1" name="monitor"/>
+ </rule>
+
+.. topic:: True for all monitor actions with a 10 second interval
+
+ .. code-block:: xml
+
+ <rule id="rule2" score="INFINITY">
+ <op_expression id="rule_expr2" name="monitor" interval="10s"/>
+ </rule>
+
+
+.. index::
+ pair: location constraint; rule
+
+Using Rules to Determine Resource Location
+##########################################
+
+A location constraint may contain one or more top-level rules. The cluster will
+act as if there is a separate location constraint for each rule that evaluates
+as true.
+
+Consider the following simple location constraint:
+
+.. topic:: Prevent resource ``webserver`` from running on node ``node3``
+
+ .. code-block:: xml
+
+ <rsc_location id="ban-apache-on-node3" rsc="webserver"
+ score="-INFINITY" node="node3"/>
+
+The same constraint can be more verbosely written using a rule:
+
+.. topic:: Prevent resource ``webserver`` from running on node ``node3`` using a rule
+
+ .. code-block:: xml
+
+ <rsc_location id="ban-apache-on-node3" rsc="webserver">
+ <rule id="ban-apache-rule" score="-INFINITY">
+ <expression id="ban-apache-expr" attribute="#uname"
+ operation="eq" value="node3"/>
+ </rule>
+ </rsc_location>
+
+The advantage of using the expanded form is that one could add more expressions
+(for example, limiting the constraint to certain days of the week), or activate
+the constraint by some node attribute other than node name.
+
+Location Rules Based on Other Node Properties
+_____________________________________________
+
+The expanded form allows us to match on node properties other than its name.
+If we rated each machine's CPU power such that the cluster had the following
+nodes section:
+
+.. topic:: Sample node section with node attributes
+
+ .. code-block:: xml
+
+ <nodes>
+ <node id="uuid1" uname="c001n01" type="normal">
+ <instance_attributes id="uuid1-custom_attrs">
+ <nvpair id="uuid1-cpu_mips" name="cpu_mips" value="1234"/>
+ </instance_attributes>
+ </node>
+ <node id="uuid2" uname="c001n02" type="normal">
+ <instance_attributes id="uuid2-custom_attrs">
+ <nvpair id="uuid2-cpu_mips" name="cpu_mips" value="5678"/>
+ </instance_attributes>
+ </node>
+ </nodes>
+
+then we could prevent resources from running on underpowered machines with this
+rule:
+
+.. topic:: Rule using a node attribute (to be used inside a location constraint)
+
+ .. code-block:: xml
+
+ <rule id="need-more-power-rule" score="-INFINITY">
+ <expression id="need-more-power-expr" attribute="cpu_mips"
+ operation="lt" value="3000"/>
+ </rule>
+
+Using ``score-attribute`` Instead of ``score``
+______________________________________________
+
+When using ``score-attribute`` instead of ``score``, each node matched by the
+rule has its score adjusted differently, according to its value for the named
+node attribute. Thus, in the previous example, if a rule inside a location
+constraint for a resource used ``score-attribute="cpu_mips"``, ``c001n01``
+would have its preference to run the resource increased by ``1234`` whereas
+``c001n02`` would have its preference increased by ``5678``.
+
+
+.. _s-rsc-pattern-rules:
+
+Specifying location scores using pattern submatches
+___________________________________________________
+
+Location constraints may use ``rsc-pattern`` to apply the constraint to all
+resources whose IDs match the given pattern (see :ref:`s-rsc-pattern`). The
+pattern may contain up to 9 submatches in parentheses, whose values may be used
+as ``%1`` through ``%9`` in a rule's ``score-attribute`` or a rule expression's
+``attribute``.
+
+As an example, the following configuration (only relevant parts are shown)
+gives the resources **server-httpd** and **ip-httpd** a preference of 100 on
+**node1** and 50 on **node2**, and **ip-gateway** a preference of -100 on
+**node1** and 200 on **node2**.
+
+.. topic:: Location constraint using submatches

+
+Using Rules to Define Options
+#############################
+
+Rules may be used to control a variety of options:
+
+* :ref:`Cluster options <cluster_options>` (``cluster_property_set`` elements)
+* :ref:`Node attributes <node_attributes>` (``instance_attributes`` or
+ ``utilization`` elements inside a ``node`` element)
+* :ref:`Resource options <resource_options>` (``utilization``,
+ ``meta_attributes``, or ``instance_attributes`` elements inside a resource
+ definition element or ``op`` , ``rsc_defaults``, ``op_defaults``, or
+ ``template`` element)
+* :ref:`Operation properties <operation_properties>` (``meta_attributes``
+ elements inside an ``op`` or ``op_defaults`` element)
+
+.. note::
+
+ Attribute-based expressions for meta-attributes can only be used within
+ ``operations`` and ``op_defaults``. They will not work with resource
+ configuration or ``rsc_defaults``. Additionally, attribute-based
+ expressions cannot be used with cluster options.
+
+Using Rules to Control Resource Options
+_______________________________________
+
+Often some cluster nodes will be different from their peers. Sometimes,
+these differences -- e.g. the location of a binary or the names of network
+interfaces -- require resources to be configured differently depending
+on the machine they're hosted on.
+
+By defining multiple ``instance_attributes`` objects for the resource and
+adding a rule to each, we can easily handle these special cases.
+
+In the example below, ``mySpecialRsc`` will use eth1 and port 9999 when run on
+``node1``, eth2 and port 8888 on ``node2`` and default to eth0 and port 9999
+for all other nodes.
+
+.. topic:: Defining different resource options based on the node name
+
+ .. code-block:: xml
+
+ <primitive id="mySpecialRsc" class="ocf" type="Special" provider="me">
+ <instance_attributes id="special-node1" score="3">
+ <rule id="node1-special-case" score="INFINITY" >
+ <expression id="node1-special-case-expr" attribute="#uname"
+ operation="eq" value="node1"/>
+ </rule>
+ <nvpair id="node1-interface" name="interface" value="eth1"/>
+ </instance_attributes>
+ <instance_attributes id="special-node2" score="2" >
+ <rule id="node2-special-case" score="INFINITY">
+ <expression id="node2-special-case-expr" attribute="#uname"
+ operation="eq" value="node2"/>
+ </rule>
+ <nvpair id="node2-interface" name="interface" value="eth2"/>
+ <nvpair id="node2-port" name="port" value="8888"/>
+ </instance_attributes>
+ <instance_attributes id="defaults" score="1" >
+ <nvpair id="default-interface" name="interface" value="eth0"/>
+ <nvpair id="default-port" name="port" value="9999"/>
+ </instance_attributes>
+ </primitive>
+
+The order in which ``instance_attributes`` objects are evaluated is determined
+by their score (highest to lowest). If not supplied, the score defaults to
+zero. Objects with an equal score are processed in their listed order. If the
+``instance_attributes`` object has no rule, or a ``rule`` that evaluates to
+``true``, then for any parameter the resource does not yet have a value for,
+the resource will use the parameter values defined by the ``instance_attributes``.
+
+For example, given the configuration above, if the resource is placed on
+``node1``:
+
+* ``special-node1`` has the highest score (3) and so is evaluated first; its
+ rule evaluates to ``true``, so ``interface`` is set to ``eth1``.
+* ``special-node2`` is evaluated next with score 2, but its rule evaluates to
+ ``false``, so it is ignored.
+* ``defaults`` is evaluated last with score 1, and has no rule, so its values
+ are examined; ``interface`` is already defined, so the value here is not
+ used, but ``port`` is not yet defined, so ``port`` is set to ``9999``.
+
+Using Rules to Control Resource Defaults
+________________________________________
+
+Rules can be used for resource and operation defaults. The following example
+illustrates how to set a different ``resource-stickiness`` value during and
+outside work hours. This allows resources to automatically move back to their
+most preferred hosts, but at a time that (in theory) does not interfere with
+business activities.
+
+.. topic:: Change ``resource-stickiness`` during working hours
+
+ .. code-block:: xml
+
+ <rsc_defaults>
+ <meta_attributes id="core-hours" score="2">
+ <rule id="core-hour-rule" score="0">
+ <date_expression id="nine-to-five-Mon-to-Fri" operation="date_spec">
+ <date_spec id="nine-to-five-Mon-to-Fri-spec" hours="9-16" weekdays="1-5"/>
+ </date_expression>
+ </rule>
+ <nvpair id="core-stickiness" name="resource-stickiness" value="INFINITY"/>
+ </meta_attributes>
+ <meta_attributes id="after-hours" score="1" >
+ <nvpair id="after-stickiness" name="resource-stickiness" value="0"/>
+ </meta_attributes>
+ </rsc_defaults>
+
+Rules may be used similarly in ``instance_attributes`` or ``utilization``
+blocks.
+
+Any single block may directly contain only a single rule, but that rule may
+itself contain any number of rules.
+
+``rsc_expression`` and ``op_expression`` blocks may additionally be used to
+set defaults on either a single resource or across an entire class of resources
+with a single rule. ``rsc_expression`` may be used to select resource agents
+within both ``rsc_defaults`` and ``op_defaults``, while ``op_expression`` may
+only be used within ``op_defaults``. If multiple rules succeed for a given
+resource agent, the last one specified will be the one that takes effect. As
+with any other rule, boolean operations may be used to make more complicated
+expressions.

+
+Using Rules to Control Cluster Options
+______________________________________
+
+Controlling cluster options is achieved in much the same manner as specifying
+different resource options on different nodes.
+
+The following example illustrates how to set ``maintenance_mode`` during a
+scheduled maintenance window. This will keep the cluster running but not
+monitor, start, or stop resources during this time.
+
+.. topic:: Schedule a maintenance window for 9 to 11 p.m. CDT Sept. 20, 2019
+
+ .. code-block:: xml
+
+ <crm_config>
+ <cluster_property_set id="cib-bootstrap-options">
+ <nvpair id="bootstrap-stonith-enabled" name="stonith-enabled" value="1"/>
+ </cluster_property_set>
+ <cluster_property_set id="normal-set" score="10">
+ <nvpair id="normal-maintenance-mode" name="maintenance-mode" value="false"/>
+ </cluster_property_set>
+ <cluster_property_set id="maintenance-window-set" score="1000">
+ <nvpair id="maintenance-nvpair1" name="maintenance-mode" value="true"/>
+ <rule id="maintenance-rule1" score="INFINITY">
+ <date_expression id="maintenance-date1" operation="in_range"
+ start="2019-09-20 21:00:00 -05:00" end="2019-09-20 23:00:00 -05:00"/>
+ </rule>
+ </cluster_property_set>
+ </crm_config>
+
+.. important:: The ``cluster_property_set`` with an ``id`` set to
+ "cib-bootstrap-options" will *always* have the highest priority,
+ regardless of any scores. Therefore, rules in another
+ ``cluster_property_set`` can never take effect for any
+ properties listed in the bootstrap set.
