+Writing CTDB cluster mutex helpers
+==================================
+
+CTDB uses cluster-wide mutexes to protect against a "split brain",
+which could occur if the cluster becomes partitioned due to network
+failure or similar.
+
+CTDB uses a cluster-wide mutex for its "cluster lock", which is used
+to ensure that only one database recovery can happen at a time. For
+an overview of cluster lock configuration see the CLUSTER LOCK
+section in ctdb(7). CTDB tries to ensure correct operation of the
+cluster lock by attempting to take the cluster lock when CTDB knows
+that it should already be held.
+
+By default, CTDB uses a supplied mutex helper that uses a fcntl(2)
+lock on a specified file in the cluster filesystem.
+
+However, a user supplied mutex helper can be used as an alternative.
+The rest of this document describes the API for mutex helpers.
+
+A mutex helper is an external executable
+----------------------------------------
+
+A mutex helper is an external executable that can be run by CTDB.
+There are no CTDB-specific compilation dependencies. This means that
+a helper could easily be scripted around existing commands. Mutex
+helpers are run relatively rarely and are not time critical.
+Therefore, reliability is preferred over high performance.
+
+Taking a mutex with a helper
+----------------------------
+
+1. Helper is executed with helper-specific arguments
+
+2. Helper attempts to take mutex
+
+3. On success, the helper writes ASCII 0 to standard output
+
+4. Helper stays running, holding mutex, awaiting termination by CTDB
+
+5. When a helper receives SIGTERM it must release any mutex it is
+ holding and then exit.
+
+Status codes
+------------
+
+CTDB ignores the exit code of a helper. Instead, CTDB reacts to a
+single ASCII character that is sent to it via a helper's standard
+output.
+
+Valid status codes are:
+
+0 - The helper took the mutex and is holding it, awaiting termination.
+
+1 - The helper was unable to take the mutex due to contention.
+
+2 - The helper took too long to take the mutex.
+
+ Helpers do not need to implement this status code. CTDB
+ already implements any required timeout handling.
+
+3 - An unexpected error occurred.
+
+If a 0 status code is sent then it the helper should periodically
+check if the (original) parent processes still exists while awaiting
+termination. If the parent process disappears then the helper should
+release the mutex and exit. This avoids stale mutexes. Note that a
+helper should never wait for parent process ID 1!
+
+If a non-0 status code is sent then the helper can exit immediately.
+However, if the helper does not exit then it must terminate if it
+receives SIGTERM.
+
+Logging
+-------
+
+Anything written to standard error by a helper is incorporated into
+CTDB's logs. A helper should generally only output to stderr for
+unexpected errors and avoid output to stderr on success or on mutex
+contention.

+ ctdb_etcd_lock is intended to be run as a mutex helper for CTDB. It
+ will try to connect to an existing etcd cluster and grab a lock in that
+ cluster to function as CTDB's cluster lock. Please see
+ <emphasis>ctdb/doc/cluster_mutex_helper.txt</emphasis> for details on
+ the mutex helper API. To use this, include the following line in
+ the <literal>[cluster]</literal> section of
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>ctdb.conf</refentrytitle>

+ </para>
+ <para>
+ This mutex helper expects the system Python interpreter to have access
+ to the etcd Python module. It also expects an etcd cluster to be
+ configured and running. To integrate with this, there is an optional
+ config file of the following format:
+ </para>
+ <screen format="linespecific">
+key = value
+ </screen>
+ <para>
+ The following configuration parameters (and their defaults) are defined

+ <screen format="linespecific">
+port = 2379 # connecting port for the etcd cluster
+lock_ttl = 9 # seconds for TTL
+refresh = 2 # seconds between attempts to maintain lock
+locks_dir = _ctdb # where to store CTDB locks in etcd
+ # The final etcd directory for any given lock looks like:
+ # /_locks/{locks_dir}/{netbios name}/

+ <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
+
+ <para>
+ CTDB's behaviour can be configured by setting run-time tunable
+ variables. This lists and describes all tunables. See the
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>ctdb</refentrytitle>
+ <manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ <command>listvars</command>, <command>setvar</command> and
+ <command>getvar</command> commands for more details.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Unless otherwise stated, tunables should be set to the same
+ value on all nodes. Setting tunables to different values across
+ nodes may produce unexpected results. Future releases may set
+ (some or most) tunables globally across the cluster but doing so
+ is currently a manual process.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Tunables can be set at startup from the
+ <filename>/usr/local/etc/ctdb/ctdb.tunables</filename>
+ configuration file.
+
+ <literallayout>
+<replaceable>TUNABLE</replaceable>=<replaceable>VALUE</replaceable>
+ </literallayout>
+
+ Comment lines beginning with '#' are permitted. Whitespace may
+ be used for formatting/alignment. VALUE must be a non-negative
+ integer and must be the last thing on a line (i.e. no trailing
+ garbage, trailing comments are not permitted).
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ For example:
+
+ <screen format="linespecific">
+MonitorInterval=20
+ </screen>
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The available tunable variables are listed alphabetically below.
+ </para>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>AllowClientDBAttach</title>
+ <para>Default: 1</para>
+ <para>
+ When set to 0, clients are not allowed to attach to any databases.
+ This can be used to temporarily block any new processes from
+ attaching to and accessing the databases. This is mainly used
+ for detaching a volatile database using 'ctdb detach'.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>AllowMixedVersions</title>
+ <para>Default: 0</para>
+ <para>
+ CTDB will not allow incompatible versions to co-exist in
+ a cluster. If a version mismatch is found, then losing CTDB
+ will shutdown. To disable the incompatible version check,
+ set this tunable to 1.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ For version checking, CTDB uses major and minor version.
+ For example, CTDB 4.6.1 and CTDB 4.6.2 are matching versions;
+ CTDB 4.5.x and CTDB 4.6.y do not match.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ CTDB with version check support will lose to CTDB without
+ version check support. Between two different CTDB versions with
+ version check support, one running for less time will lose.
+ If the running time for both CTDB versions with version check
+ support is equal (to seconds), then the older version will lose.
+ The losing CTDB daemon will shutdown.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>AllowUnhealthyDBRead</title>
+ <para>Default: 0</para>
+ <para>
+ When set to 1, ctdb allows database traverses to read unhealthy
+ databases. By default, ctdb does not allow reading records from
+ unhealthy databases.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>ControlTimeout</title>
+ <para>Default: 60</para>
+ <para>
+ This is the default setting for timeout for when sending a
+ control message to either the local or a remote ctdb daemon.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>DatabaseHashSize</title>
+ <para>Default: 100001</para>
+ <para>
+ Number of the hash chains for the local store of the tdbs that
+ ctdb manages.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>DatabaseMaxDead</title>
+ <para>Default: 5</para>
+ <para>
+ Maximum number of dead records per hash chain for the tdb databases
+ managed by ctdb.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>DBRecordCountWarn</title>
+ <para>Default: 100000</para>
+ <para>
+ When set to non-zero, ctdb will log a warning during recovery if
+ a database has more than this many records. This will produce a
+ warning if a database grows uncontrollably with orphaned records.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>DBRecordSizeWarn</title>
+ <para>Default: 10000000</para>
+ <para>
+ When set to non-zero, ctdb will log a warning during recovery
+ if a single record is bigger than this size. This will produce
+ a warning if a database record grows uncontrollably.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>DBSizeWarn</title>
+ <para>Default: 1000000000</para>
+ <para>
+ When set to non-zero, ctdb will log a warning during recovery if
+ a database size is bigger than this. This will produce a warning
+ if a database grows uncontrollably.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>DeferredAttachTO</title>
+ <para>Default: 120</para>
+ <para>
+ When databases are frozen we do not allow clients to attach to
+ the databases. Instead of returning an error immediately to the
+ client, the attach request from the client is deferred until
+ the database becomes available again at which stage we respond
+ to the client.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ This timeout controls how long we will defer the request from the
+ client before timing it out and returning an error to the client.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>ElectionTimeout</title>
+ <para>Default: 3</para>
+ <para>
+ The number of seconds to wait for the election of recovery
+ master to complete. If the election is not completed during this
+ interval, then that round of election fails and ctdb starts a
+ new election.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>EnableBans</title>
+ <para>Default: 1</para>
+ <para>
+ This parameter allows ctdb to ban a node if the node is misbehaving.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ When set to 0, this disables banning completely in the cluster
+ and thus nodes can not get banned, even it they break. Don't
+ set to 0 unless you know what you are doing.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>EventScriptTimeout</title>
+ <para>Default: 30</para>
+ <para>
+ Maximum time in seconds to allow an event to run before timing
+ out. This is the total time for all enabled scripts that are
+ run for an event, not just a single event script.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Note that timeouts are ignored for some events ("takeip",
+ "releaseip", "startrecovery", "recovered") and converted to
+ success. The logic here is that the callers of these events
+ implement their own additional timeout.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>FetchCollapse</title>
+ <para>Default: 1</para>
+ <para>
+ This parameter is used to avoid multiple migration requests for
+ the same record from a single node. All the record requests for
+ the same record are queued up and processed when the record is
+ migrated to the current node.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ When many clients across many nodes try to access the same record
+ at the same time this can lead to a fetch storm where the record
+ becomes very active and bounces between nodes very fast. This
+ leads to high CPU utilization of the ctdbd daemon, trying to
+ bounce that record around very fast, and poor performance.
+ This can improve performance and reduce CPU utilization for
+ certain workloads.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>HopcountMakeSticky</title>
+ <para>Default: 50</para>
+ <para>
+ For database(s) marked STICKY (using 'ctdb setdbsticky'),
+ any record that is migrating so fast that hopcount
+ exceeds this limit is marked as STICKY record for
+ <varname>StickyDuration</varname> seconds. This means that
+ after each migration the sticky record will be kept on the node
+ <varname>StickyPindown</varname>milliseconds and prevented from
+ being migrated off the node.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ This will improve performance for certain workloads, such as
+ locking.tdb if many clients are opening/closing the same file
+ concurrently.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>IPAllocAlgorithm</title>
+ <para>Default: 2</para>
+ <para>
+ Selects the algorithm that CTDB should use when doing public
+ IP address allocation. Meaningful values are:
+ </para>
+ <variablelist>
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>0</term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Deterministic IP address allocation.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ This is a simple and fast option. However, it can cause
+ unnecessary address movement during fail-over because
+ each address has a "home" node. Works badly when some
+ nodes do not have any addresses defined. Should be used
+ with care when addresses are defined across multiple
+ networks.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ You can override the automatic "home" node allocation by
+ creating a file "home_nodes" next to the
+ "public_addresses" file. As an example the following
+ "home_nodes" file assigns the address 192.168.1.1 to
+ node 0 and 192.168.1.2 to node 2:
+ </para>
+ <screen format="linespecific">
+ 192.168.1.1 0
+ 192.168.1.2 2
+ </screen>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>1</term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Non-deterministic IP address allocation.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ This is a relatively fast option that attempts to do a
+ minimise unnecessary address movements. Addresses do
+ not have a "home" node. Rebalancing is limited but it
+ usually adequate. Works badly when addresses are
+ defined across multiple networks.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>2</term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ LCP2 IP address allocation.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Uses a heuristic to assign addresses defined across
+ multiple networks, usually balancing addresses on each
+ network evenly across nodes. Addresses do not have a
+ "home" node. Minimises unnecessary address movements.
+ The algorithm is complex, so is slower than other
+ choices for a large number of addresses. However, it
+ can calculate an optimal assignment of 900 addresses in
+ under 10 seconds on modern hardware.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+ </variablelist>
+ <para>
+ If the specified value is not one of these then the default
+ will be used.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>KeepaliveInterval</title>
+ <para>Default: 5</para>
+ <para>
+ How often in seconds should the nodes send keep-alive packets to

+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>

+ If a node has hung, it can take
+ <varname>KeepaliveInterval</varname> *
+ (<varname>KeepaliveLimit</varname> + 1) seconds before
+ ctdb determines that the node is DISCONNECTED and performs
+ a recovery. This limit should not be set too high to enable
+ early detection and avoid any application timeouts (e.g. SMB1)
+ to kick in before the fail over is completed.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>LockProcessesPerDB</title>
+ <para>Default: 200</para>
+ <para>
+ This is the maximum number of lock helper processes ctdb will
+ create for obtaining record locks. When ctdb cannot get a record
+ lock without blocking, it creates a helper process that waits
+ for the lock to be obtained.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>LogLatencyMs</title>
+ <para>Default: 0</para>
+ <para>
+ When set to non-zero, ctdb will log if certains operations
+ take longer than this value, in milliseconds, to complete.
+ These operations include "process a record request from client",
+ "take a record or database lock", "update a persistent database
+ record" and "vacuum a database".
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>MaxQueueDropMsg</title>
+ <para>Default: 1000000</para>
+ <para>
+ This is the maximum number of messages to be queued up for
+ a client before ctdb will treat the client as hung and will
+ terminate the client connection.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>MonitorInterval</title>
+ <para>Default: 15</para>
+ <para>
+ How often should ctdb run the 'monitor' event in seconds to check
+ for a node's health.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>MonitorTimeoutCount</title>
+ <para>Default: 20</para>
+ <para>
+ How many 'monitor' events in a row need to timeout before a node
+ is flagged as UNHEALTHY. This setting is useful if scripts can
+ not be written so that they do not hang for benign reasons.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>NoIPFailback</title>
+ <para>Default: 0</para>
+ <para>
+ When set to 1, ctdb will not perform failback of IP addresses
+ when a node becomes healthy. When a node becomes UNHEALTHY,
+ ctdb WILL perform failover of public IP addresses, but when the
+ node becomes HEALTHY again, ctdb will not fail the addresses back.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Use with caution! Normally when a node becomes available to the
+ cluster ctdb will try to reassign public IP addresses onto the
+ new node as a way to distribute the workload evenly across the
+ clusternode. Ctdb tries to make sure that all running nodes have
+ approximately the same number of public addresses it hosts.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ When you enable this tunable, ctdb will no longer attempt to
+ rebalance the cluster by failing IP addresses back to the new
+ nodes. An unbalanced cluster will therefore remain unbalanced
+ until there is manual intervention from the administrator. When
+ this parameter is set, you can manually fail public IP addresses
+ over to the new node(s) using the 'ctdb moveip' command.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>NoIPTakeover</title>
+ <para>Default: 0</para>
+ <para>
+ When set to 1, ctdb will not allow IP addresses to be failed
+ over to other nodes. Any IP addresses already hosted on
+ healthy nodes will remain. Any IP addresses hosted on
+ unhealthy nodes will be released by unhealthy nodes and will
+ become un-hosted.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>PullDBPreallocation</title>
+ <para>Default: 10*1024*1024</para>
+ <para>
+ This is the size of a record buffer to pre-allocate for sending
+ reply to PULLDB control. Usually record buffer starts with size
+ of the first record and gets reallocated every time a new record
+ is added to the record buffer. For a large number of records,
+ this can be very inefficient to grow the record buffer one record
+ at a time.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>QueueBufferSize</title>
+ <para>Default: 1024</para>
+ <para>
+ This is the maximum amount of data (in bytes) ctdb will read
+ from a socket at a time.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ For a busy setup, if ctdb is not able to process the TCP sockets
+ fast enough (large amount of data in Recv-Q for tcp sockets),
+ then this tunable value should be increased. However, large
+ values can keep ctdb busy processing packets and prevent ctdb
+ from handling other events.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>RecBufferSizeLimit</title>
+ <para>Default: 1000000</para>
+ <para>
+ This is the limit on the size of the record buffer to be sent
+ in various controls. This limit is used by new controls used
+ for recovery and controls used in vacuuming.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>RecdFailCount</title>
+ <para>Default: 10</para>
+ <para>
+ If the recovery daemon has failed to ping the main daemon for
+ this many consecutive intervals, the main daemon will consider
+ the recovery daemon as hung and will try to restart it to recover.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>RecdPingTimeout</title>
+ <para>Default: 60</para>
+ <para>
+ If the main daemon has not heard a "ping" from the recovery daemon
+ for this many seconds, the main daemon will log a message that
+ the recovery daemon is potentially hung. This also increments a
+ counter which is checked against <varname>RecdFailCount</varname>
+ for detection of hung recovery daemon.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>RecLockLatencyMs</title>
+ <para>Default: 1000</para>
+ <para>
+ When using a reclock file for split brain prevention, if set
+ to non-zero this tunable will make the recovery daemon log a
+ message if the fcntl() call to lock/testlock the recovery file
+ takes longer than this number of milliseconds.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>RecoverInterval</title>
+ <para>Default: 1</para>
+ <para>
+ How frequently in seconds should the recovery daemon perform the
+ consistency checks to determine if it should perform a recovery.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>RecoverTimeout</title>
+ <para>Default: 120</para>
+ <para>
+ This is the default setting for timeouts for controls when sent
+ from the recovery daemon. We allow longer control timeouts from
+ the recovery daemon than from normal use since the recovery
+ daemon often use controls that can take a lot longer than normal
+ controls.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>RecoveryBanPeriod</title>
+ <para>Default: 300</para>
+ <para>
+ The duration in seconds for which a node is banned if the node
+ fails during recovery. After this time has elapsed the node will
+ automatically get unbanned and will attempt to rejoin the cluster.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ A node usually gets banned due to real problems with the node.
+ Don't set this value too small. Otherwise, a problematic node
+ will try to re-join cluster too soon causing unnecessary recoveries.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>RecoveryDropAllIPs</title>
+ <para>Default: 120</para>
+ <para>
+ If a node is stuck in recovery, or stopped, or banned, for this
+ many seconds, then ctdb will release all public addresses on
+ that node.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>RecoveryGracePeriod</title>
+ <para>Default: 120</para>
+ <para>
+ During recoveries, if a node has not caused recovery failures
+ during the last grace period in seconds, any records of
+ transgressions that the node has caused recovery failures will be
+ forgiven. This resets the ban-counter back to zero for that node.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>RepackLimit</title>
+ <para>Default: 10000</para>
+ <para>
+ During vacuuming, if the number of freelist records are more than
+ <varname>RepackLimit</varname>, then the database is repacked
+ to get rid of the freelist records to avoid fragmentation.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>RerecoveryTimeout</title>
+ <para>Default: 10</para>
+ <para>
+ Once a recovery has completed, no additional recoveries are
+ permitted until this timeout in seconds has expired.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>SeqnumInterval</title>
+ <para>Default: 1000</para>
+ <para>
+ Some databases have seqnum tracking enabled, so that samba will
+ be able to detect asynchronously when there has been updates
+ to the database. Every time a database is updated its sequence
+ number is increased.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ This tunable is used to specify in milliseconds how frequently
+ ctdb will send out updates to remote nodes to inform them that
+ the sequence number is increased.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>StatHistoryInterval</title>
+ <para>Default: 1</para>
+ <para>
+ Granularity of the statistics collected in the statistics
+ history. This is reported by 'ctdb stats' command.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>StickyDuration</title>
+ <para>Default: 600</para>
+ <para>
+ Once a record has been marked STICKY, this is the duration in
+ seconds, the record will be flagged as a STICKY record.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>StickyPindown</title>
+ <para>Default: 200</para>
+ <para>
+ Once a STICKY record has been migrated onto a node, it will be
+ pinned down on that node for this number of milliseconds. Any
+ request from other nodes to migrate the record off the node will
+ be deferred.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>TakeoverTimeout</title>
+ <para>Default: 9</para>
+ <para>
+ This is the duration in seconds in which ctdb tries to complete IP
+ failover.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>TickleUpdateInterval</title>
+ <para>Default: 20</para>
+ <para>
+ Every <varname>TickleUpdateInterval</varname> seconds, ctdb
+ synchronizes the client connection information across nodes.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>TraverseTimeout</title>
+ <para>Default: 20</para>
+ <para>
+ This is the duration in seconds for which a database traverse
+ is allowed to run. If the traverse does not complete during
+ this interval, ctdb will abort the traverse.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>VacuumFastPathCount</title>
+ <para>Default: 60</para>
+ <para>
+ During a vacuuming run, ctdb usually processes only the records
+ marked for deletion also called the fast path vacuuming. After
+ finishing <varname>VacuumFastPathCount</varname> number of fast
+ path vacuuming runs, ctdb will trigger a scan of complete database
+ for any empty records that need to be deleted.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>VacuumInterval</title>
+ <para>Default: 10</para>
+ <para>
+ Periodic interval in seconds when vacuuming is triggered for
+ volatile databases.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>VacuumMaxRunTime</title>
+ <para>Default: 120</para>
+ <para>
+ The maximum time in seconds for which the vacuuming process is
+ allowed to run. If vacuuming process takes longer than this
+ value, then the vacuuming process is terminated.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>VerboseMemoryNames</title>
+ <para>Default: 0</para>
+ <para>
+ When set to non-zero, ctdb assigns verbose names for some of
+ the talloc allocated memory objects. These names are visible
+ in the talloc memory report generated by 'ctdb dumpmemory'.

+ <title>ADMINISTRATIVE COMMANDS</title>
+ <para>
+ These are commands used to monitor and administer a CTDB cluster.
+ </para>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>pnn</title>
+ <para>
+ This command displays the PNN of the current node.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>status</title>
+ <para>
+ This command shows the current status of all CTDB nodes based
+ on information from the queried node.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Note: If the queried node is INACTIVE then the status
+ might not be current.
+ </para>
+
+ <refsect3>
+ <title>Node status</title>
+ <para>
+ This includes the number of physical nodes and the status of
+ each node. See <citerefentry><refentrytitle>ctdb</refentrytitle>
+ <manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> for information
+ about node states.
+ </para>
+ </refsect3>
+
+ <refsect3>
+ <title>Generation</title>
+ <para>
+ The generation id is a number that indicates the current generation
+ of a cluster instance. Each time a cluster goes through a
+ reconfiguration or a recovery its generation id will be changed.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ This number does not have any particular meaning other than
+ to keep track of when a cluster has gone through a
+ recovery. It is a random number that represents the current
+ instance of a ctdb cluster and its databases. The CTDB
+ daemon uses this number internally to be able to tell when
+ commands to operate on the cluster and the databases was
+ issued in a different generation of the cluster, to ensure
+ that commands that operate on the databases will not survive
+ across a cluster database recovery. After a recovery, all
+ old outstanding commands will automatically become invalid.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Sometimes this number will be shown as "INVALID". This only means that
+ the ctdbd daemon has started but it has not yet merged with the cluster through a recovery.
+ All nodes start with generation "INVALID" and are not assigned a real
+ generation id until they have successfully been merged with a cluster
+ through a recovery.
+ </para>
+ </refsect3>
+
+ <refsect3>
+ <title>Virtual Node Number (VNN) map</title>
+ <para>
+ Consists of the number of virtual nodes and mapping from
+ virtual node numbers to physical node numbers. Only nodes
+ that are participating in the VNN map can become lmaster for
+ database records.
+ </para>
+ </refsect3>
+
+ <refsect3>
+ <title>Recovery mode</title>
+ <para>
+ This is the current recovery mode of the cluster. There are two possible modes:
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ NORMAL - The cluster is fully operational.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ RECOVERY - The cluster databases have all been frozen, pausing all services while the cluster awaits a recovery process to complete. A recovery process should finish within seconds. If a cluster is stuck in the RECOVERY state this would indicate a cluster malfunction which needs to be investigated.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once the leader detects an inconsistency, for example a node
+ becomes disconnected/connected, the recovery daemon will trigger a
+ cluster recovery process, where all databases are remerged across the
+ cluster. When this process starts, the leader will first
+ "freeze" all databases to prevent applications such as samba from
+ accessing the databases and it will also mark the recovery mode as
+ RECOVERY.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ When the CTDB daemon starts up, it will start in RECOVERY
+ mode. Once the node has been merged into a cluster and all
+ databases have been recovered, the node mode will change into
+ NORMAL mode and the databases will be "thawed", allowing samba
+ to access the databases again.
+ </para>
+ </refsect3>
+ <refsect3>
+ <title>Leader</title>
+ <para>
+ This is the cluster node that is currently designated as the
+ leader. This node is responsible of monitoring the
+ consistency of the cluster and to perform the actual
+ recovery process when required.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Only one node at a time can be the designated leader. Which
+ node is designated the leader is decided by an election
+ process in the recovery daemons running on each node.
+ </para>

+ <title>ANATOMY OF A CTDB CLUSTER</title>
+
+ <para>
+ A CTDB cluster is a collection of nodes with 2 or more network
+ interfaces. All nodes provide network (usually file/NAS) services
+ to clients. Data served by file services is stored on shared
+ storage (usually a cluster filesystem) that is accessible by all
+ nodes.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ CTDB provides an "all active" cluster, where services are load
+ balanced across all nodes.
+ </para>
+</refsect1>
+
+ <refsect1>
+ <title>Cluster leader</title>
+
+ <para>
+ CTDB uses a <emphasis>cluster leader and follower</emphasis>
+ model of cluster management. All nodes in a cluster elect one
+ node to be the leader. The leader node coordinates privileged
+ operations such as database recovery and IP address failover.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ CTDB previously referred to the leader as the <emphasis>recovery
+ master</emphasis> or <emphasis>recmaster</emphasis>. References
+ to these terms may still be found in documentation and code.
+ </para>
+ </refsect1>
+
+ <refsect1>
+ <title>Cluster Lock</title>
+
+ <para>
+ CTDB uses a cluster lock to assert its privileged role in the
+ cluster. This node takes the cluster lock when it becomes
+ leader and holds the lock until it is no longer leader. The
+ <emphasis>cluster lock</emphasis> helps CTDB to avoid a
+ <emphasis>split brain</emphasis>, where a cluster becomes
+ partitioned and each partition attempts to operate
+ independently. Issues that can result from a split brain
+ include file data corruption, because file locking metadata may
+ not be tracked correctly.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ CTDB previously referred to the cluster lock as the
+ <emphasis>recovery lock</emphasis>. The abbreviation
+ <emphasis>reclock</emphasis> is still used - just "clock" would
+ be confusing.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ <emphasis>CTDB is unable configure a default cluster
+ lock</emphasis>, because this would depend on factors such as
+ cluster filesystem mountpoints. However, <emphasis>running CTDB
+ without a cluster lock is not recommended</emphasis> as there
+ will be no split brain protection.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ When a cluster lock is configured it is used as the election
+ mechanism. Nodes race to take the cluster lock and the winner
+ is the cluster leader. This avoids problems when a node wins an
+ election but is unable to take the lock - this can occur if a
+ cluster becomes partitioned (for example, due to a communication
+ failure) and a different leader is elected by the nodes in each
+ partition, or if the cluster filesystem has a high failover
+ latency.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ By default, the cluster lock is implemented using a file
+ (specified by <parameter>cluster lock</parameter> in the
+ <literal>[cluster]</literal> section of
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>ctdb.conf</refentrytitle>
+ <manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>) residing in shared
+ storage (usually) on a cluster filesystem. To support a
+ cluster lock the cluster filesystem must support lock
+ coherence. See
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>ping_pong</refentrytitle>
+ <manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> for more details.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The cluster lock can also be implemented using an arbitrary
+ cluster mutex helper (or call-out). This is indicated by using
+ an exclamation point ('!') as the first character of the
+ <parameter>cluster lock</parameter> parameter. For example, a
+ value of <command>!/usr/local/bin/myhelper cluster</command>
+ would run the given helper with the specified arguments. The
+ helper will continue to run as long as it holds its mutex. See
+ <filename>ctdb/doc/cluster_mutex_helper.txt</filename> in the
+ source tree, and related code, for clues about writing helpers.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ When a file is specified for the <parameter>cluster
+ lock</parameter> parameter (i.e. no leading '!') the file lock
+ is implemented by a default helper
+ (<command>/usr/local/libexec/ctdb/ctdb_mutex_fcntl_helper</command>).
+ This helper has arguments as follows:
+
+ <!-- cmdsynopsis would not require long line but does not work :-( -->
+ <synopsis>
+<command>ctdb_mutex_fcntl_helper</command> <parameter>FILE</parameter> <optional><parameter>RECHECK-INTERVAL</parameter></optional>
+ </synopsis>
+
+ <command>ctdb_mutex_fcntl_helper</command> will take a lock on
+ FILE and then check every RECHECK-INTERVAL seconds to ensure
+ that FILE still exists and that its inode number is unchanged
+ from when the lock was taken. The default value for
+ RECHECK-INTERVAL is 5.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ CTDB does sanity checks to ensure that the cluster lock is held
+ as expected.
+ </para>
+ </refsect1>

+ <refsect1>
+ <title>Private vs Public addresses</title>
+
+ <para>
+ Each node in a CTDB cluster has multiple IP addresses assigned
+ to it:
+
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ A single private IP address that is used for communication
+ between nodes.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ One or more public IP addresses that are used to provide
+ NAS or other services.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+ </para>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>Private address</title>
+
+ <para>
+ Each node is configured with a unique, permanently assigned
+ private address. This address is configured by the operating
+ system. This address uniquely identifies a physical node in
+ the cluster and is the address that CTDB daemons will use to
+ communicate with the CTDB daemons on other nodes.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Private addresses are listed in the file
+ <filename>/usr/local/etc/ctdb/nodes</filename>). This file
+ contains the list of private addresses for all nodes in the
+ cluster, one per line. This file must be the same on all nodes
+ in the cluster.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Some users like to put this configuration file in their
+ cluster filesystem. A symbolic link should be used in this
+ case.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Private addresses should not be used by clients to connect to
+ services provided by the cluster.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ It is strongly recommended that the private addresses are
+ configured on a private network that is separate from client
+ networks. This is because the CTDB protocol is both
+ unauthenticated and unencrypted. If clients share the private
+ network then steps need to be taken to stop injection of
+ packets to relevant ports on the private addresses. It is
+ also likely that CTDB protocol traffic between nodes could
+ leak sensitive information if it can be intercepted.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Example <filename>/usr/local/etc/ctdb/nodes</filename> for a four node
+ cluster:
+ </para>
+ <screen format="linespecific">
+192.168.1.1
+192.168.1.2
+192.168.1.3
+192.168.1.4
+ </screen>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>Public addresses</title>
+
+ <para>
+ Public addresses are used to provide services to clients.
+ Public addresses are not configured at the operating system
+ level and are not permanently associated with a particular
+ node. Instead, they are managed by CTDB and are assigned to
+ interfaces on physical nodes at runtime.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ The CTDB cluster will assign/reassign these public addresses
+ across the available healthy nodes in the cluster. When one
+ node fails, its public addresses will be taken over by one or
+ more other nodes in the cluster. This ensures that services
+ provided by all public addresses are always available to
+ clients, as long as there are nodes available capable of
+ hosting this address.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The public address configuration is stored in
+ <filename>/usr/local/etc/ctdb/public_addresses</filename> on
+ each node. This file contains a list of the public addresses
+ that the node is capable of hosting, one per line. Each entry
+ also contains the netmask and the interface to which the
+ address should be assigned. If this file is missing then no
+ public addresses are configured.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Some users who have the same public addresses on all nodes
+ like to put this configuration file in their cluster
+ filesystem. A symbolic link should be used in this case.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Example <filename>/usr/local/etc/ctdb/public_addresses</filename> for a
+ node that can host 4 public addresses, on 2 different
+ interfaces:
+ </para>
+ <screen format="linespecific">
+10.1.1.1/24 eth1
+10.1.1.2/24 eth1
+10.1.2.1/24 eth2
+10.1.2.2/24 eth2
+ </screen>
+
+ <para>
+ In many cases the public addresses file will be the same on
+ all nodes. However, it is possible to use different public
+ address configurations on different nodes.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Example: 4 nodes partitioned into two subgroups:
+ </para>
+ <screen format="linespecific">
+Node 0:/usr/local/etc/ctdb/public_addresses
+ 10.1.1.1/24 eth1
+ 10.1.1.2/24 eth1
+
+Node 1:/usr/local/etc/ctdb/public_addresses
+ 10.1.1.1/24 eth1
+ 10.1.1.2/24 eth1
+
+Node 2:/usr/local/etc/ctdb/public_addresses
+ 10.1.2.1/24 eth2
+ 10.1.2.2/24 eth2
+
+Node 3:/usr/local/etc/ctdb/public_addresses
+ 10.1.2.1/24 eth2
+ 10.1.2.2/24 eth2
+ </screen>
+ <para>
+ In this example nodes 0 and 1 host two public addresses on the
+ 10.1.1.x network while nodes 2 and 3 host two public addresses
+ for the 10.1.2.x network.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Public address 10.1.1.1 can be hosted by either of nodes 0 or
+ 1 and will be available to clients as long as at least one of
+ these two nodes are available.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ If both nodes 0 and 1 become unavailable then public address
+ 10.1.1.1 also becomes unavailable. 10.1.1.1 can not be failed
+ over to nodes 2 or 3 since these nodes do not have this public
+ address configured.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ The <command>ctdb ip</command> command can be used to view the
+ current assignment of public addresses to physical nodes.

+ <title>LVS</title>
+
+ <para>
+ LVS is a mode where CTDB presents one single IP address for the
+ entire cluster. This is an alternative to using public IP
+ addresses and round-robin DNS to loadbalance clients across the
+ cluster.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ This is similar to using a layer-4 loadbalancing switch but with
+ some restrictions.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ One extra LVS public address is assigned on the public network
+ to each LVS group. Each LVS group is a set of nodes in the
+ cluster that presents the same LVS address public address to the
+ outside world. Normally there would only be one LVS group
+ spanning an entire cluster, but in situations where one CTDB
+ cluster spans multiple physical sites it might be useful to have
+ one LVS group for each site. There can be multiple LVS groups
+ in a cluster but each node can only be member of one LVS group.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Client access to the cluster is load-balanced across the HEALTHY
+ nodes in an LVS group. If no HEALTHY nodes exists then all
+ nodes in the group are used, regardless of health status. CTDB
+ will, however never load-balance LVS traffic to nodes that are
+ BANNED, STOPPED, DISABLED or DISCONNECTED. The <command>ctdb
+ lvs</command> command is used to show which nodes are currently
+ load-balanced across.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ In each LVS group, one of the nodes is selected by CTDB to be
+ the LVS leader. This node receives all traffic from clients
+ coming in to the LVS public address and multiplexes it across
+ the internal network to one of the nodes that LVS is using.
+ When responding to the client, that node will send the data back
+ directly to the client, bypassing the LVS leader node. The
+ command <command>ctdb lvs leader</command> will show which node
+ is the current LVS leader.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The path used for a client I/O is:
+ <orderedlist>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Client sends request packet to LVS leader.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ LVS leader passes the request on to one node across the

+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Node responds back to client.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ </orderedlist>
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ This means that all incoming traffic to the cluster will pass
+ through one physical node, which limits scalability. You can
+ send more data to the LVS address that one physical node can
+ multiplex. This means that you should not use LVS if your I/O
+ pattern is write-intensive since you will be limited in the
+ available network bandwidth that node can handle. LVS does work
+ very well for read-intensive workloads where only smallish READ
+ requests are going through the LVS leader bottleneck and the
+ majority of the traffic volume (the data in the read replies)
+ goes straight from the processing node back to the clients. For
+ read-intensive i/o patterns you can achieve very high throughput
+ rates in this mode.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Note: you can use LVS and public addresses at the same time.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ If you use LVS, you must have a permanent address configured for
+ the public interface on each node. This address must be routable
+ and the cluster nodes must be configured so that all traffic
+ back to client hosts are routed through this interface. This is
+ also required in order to allow samba/winbind on the node to
+ talk to the domain controller. This LVS IP address can not be
+ used to initiate outgoing traffic.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Make sure that the domain controller and the clients are
+ reachable from a node <emphasis>before</emphasis> you enable
+ LVS. Also ensure that outgoing traffic to these hosts is routed
+ out through the configured public interface.
+ </para>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>Configuration</title>
+
+ <para>
+ To activate LVS on a CTDB node you must specify the
+ <varname>CTDB_LVS_PUBLIC_IFACE</varname>,
+ <varname>CTDB_LVS_PUBLIC_IP</varname> and
+ <varname>CTDB_LVS_NODES</varname> configuration variables.
+ <varname>CTDB_LVS_NODES</varname> specifies a file containing

+ <title>TRACKING AND RESETTING TCP CONNECTIONS</title>
+
+ <para>
+ CTDB tracks TCP connections from clients to public IP addresses,
+ on known ports. When an IP address moves from one node to
+ another, all existing TCP connections to that IP address are
+ reset. The node taking over this IP address will also send
+ gratuitous ARPs (for IPv4, or neighbour advertisement, for
+ IPv6). This allows clients to reconnect quickly, rather than
+ waiting for TCP timeouts, which can be very long.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ It is important that established TCP connections do not survive
+ a release and take of a public IP address on the same node.
+ Such connections can get out of sync with sequence and ACK
+ numbers, potentially causing a disruptive ACK storm.
+ </para>
+
+ </refsect1>
+
+ <refsect1>
+ <title>NAT GATEWAY</title>
+
+ <para>
+ NAT gateway (NATGW) is an optional feature that is used to
+ configure fallback routing for nodes. This allows cluster nodes
+ to connect to external services (e.g. DNS, AD, NIS and LDAP)
+ when they do not host any public addresses (e.g. when they are
+ unhealthy).
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ This also applies to node startup because CTDB marks nodes as
+ UNHEALTHY until they have passed a "monitor" event. In this
+ context, NAT gateway helps to avoid a "chicken and egg"
+ situation where a node needs to access an external service to
+ become healthy.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Another way of solving this type of problem is to assign an
+ extra static IP address to a public interface on every node.
+ This is simpler but it uses an extra IP address per node, while
+ NAT gateway generally uses only one extra IP address.
+ </para>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>Operation</title>
+
+ <para>
+ One extra NATGW public address is assigned on the public
+ network to each NATGW group. Each NATGW group is a set of
+ nodes in the cluster that shares the same NATGW address to
+ talk to the outside world. Normally there would only be one
+ NATGW group spanning an entire cluster, but in situations
+ where one CTDB cluster spans multiple physical sites it might
+ be useful to have one NATGW group for each site.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ There can be multiple NATGW groups in a cluster but each node
+ can only be member of one NATGW group.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ In each NATGW group, one of the nodes is selected by CTDB to
+ be the NATGW leader and the other nodes are consider to be
+ NATGW followers. NATGW followers establish a fallback default route
+ to the NATGW leader via the private network. When a NATGW
+ follower hosts no public IP addresses then it will use this route
+ for outbound connections. The NATGW leader hosts the NATGW
+ public IP address and routes outgoing connections from
+ follower nodes via this IP address. It also establishes a
+ fallback default route.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>Configuration</title>
+
+ <para>
+ NATGW is usually configured similar to the following example configuration:
+ </para>
+ <screen format="linespecific">
+CTDB_NATGW_NODES=/usr/local/etc/ctdb/natgw_nodes
+CTDB_NATGW_PRIVATE_NETWORK=192.168.1.0/24
+CTDB_NATGW_PUBLIC_IP=10.0.0.227/24
+CTDB_NATGW_PUBLIC_IFACE=eth0
+CTDB_NATGW_DEFAULT_GATEWAY=10.0.0.1
+ </screen>
+
+ <para>
+ Normally any node in a NATGW group can act as the NATGW
+ leader. Some configurations may have special nodes that lack
+ connectivity to a public network. In such cases, those nodes
+ can be flagged with the "follower-only" option in the
+ <varname>CTDB_NATGW_NODES</varname> file to limit the NATGW
+ functionality of those nodes.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ See the <citetitle>NAT GATEWAY</citetitle> section in
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>ctdb-script.options</refentrytitle>
+ <manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> for more details of
+ NATGW configuration.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>Implementation details</title>
+
+ <para>
+ When the NATGW functionality is used, one of the nodes is
+ selected to act as a NAT gateway for all the other nodes in
+ the group when they need to communicate with the external
+ services. The NATGW leader is selected to be a node that is
+ most likely to have usable networks.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The NATGW leader hosts the NATGW public IP address
+ <varname>CTDB_NATGW_PUBLIC_IP</varname> on the configured public
+ interfaces <varname>CTDB_NATGW_PUBLIC_IFACE</varname> and acts as
+ a router, masquerading outgoing connections from follower nodes
+ via this IP address. If
+ <varname>CTDB_NATGW_DEFAULT_GATEWAY</varname> is set then it
+ also establishes a fallback default route to the configured
+ this gateway with a metric of 10. A metric 10 route is used
+ so it can co-exist with other default routes that may be
+ available.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ A NATGW follower establishes its fallback default route to the
+ NATGW leader via the private network
+ <varname>CTDB_NATGW_PRIVATE_NETWORK</varname>with a metric of 10.
+ This route is used for outbound connections when no other
+ default route is available because the node hosts no public
+ addresses. A metric 10 routes is used so that it can co-exist
+ with other default routes that may be available when the node
+ is hosting public addresses.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ <varname>CTDB_NATGW_STATIC_ROUTES</varname> can be used to
+ have NATGW create more specific routes instead of just default
+ routes.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ This is implemented in the <filename>11.natgw</filename>
+ eventscript. Please see the eventscript file and the
+ <citetitle>NAT GATEWAY</citetitle> section in
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>ctdb-script.options</refentrytitle>

+ </refsect1>
+
+ <refsect1>
+ <title>POLICY ROUTING</title>
+
+ <para>
+ Policy routing is an optional CTDB feature to support complex
+ network topologies. Public addresses may be spread across
+ several different networks (or VLANs) and it may not be possible
+ to route packets from these public addresses via the system's
+ default route. Therefore, CTDB has support for policy routing
+ via the <filename>13.per_ip_routing</filename> eventscript.
+ This allows routing to be specified for packets sourced from
+ each public address. The routes are added and removed as CTDB
+ moves public addresses between nodes.
+ </para>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>Configuration variables</title>
+
+ <para>
+ There are 4 configuration variables related to policy routing:
+ <varname>CTDB_PER_IP_ROUTING_CONF</varname>,
+ <varname>CTDB_PER_IP_ROUTING_RULE_PREF</varname>,
+ <varname>CTDB_PER_IP_ROUTING_TABLE_ID_LOW</varname>,
+ <varname>CTDB_PER_IP_ROUTING_TABLE_ID_HIGH</varname>. See the
+ <citetitle>POLICY ROUTING</citetitle> section in
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>ctdb-script.options</refentrytitle>
+ <manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> for more details.
+ </para>
+ </refsect2>
+
+ <refsect2>
+ <title>Configuration</title>
+
+ <para>
+ The format of each line of
+ <varname>CTDB_PER_IP_ROUTING_CONF</varname> is:
+ </para>
+
+ <screen>
+&lt;public_address&gt; &lt;network&gt; [ &lt;gateway&gt; ]
+ </screen>
+
+ <para>
+ Leading whitespace is ignored and arbitrary whitespace may be
+ used as a separator. Lines that have a "public address" item
+ that doesn't match an actual public address are ignored. This
+ means that comment lines can be added using a leading
+ character such as '#', since this will never match an IP
+ address.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ A line without a gateway indicates a link local route.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ For example, consider the configuration line:
+ </para>
+
+ <screen>
+ 192.168.1.99 192.168.1.0/24
+ </screen>
+
+ <para>
+ If the corresponding public_addresses line is:
+ </para>
+
+ <screen>
+ 192.168.1.99/24 eth2,eth3
+ </screen>
+
+ <para>
+ <varname>CTDB_PER_IP_ROUTING_RULE_PREF</varname> is 100, and
+ CTDB adds the address to eth2 then the following routing
+ information is added:
+ </para>
+
+ <screen>
+ ip rule add from 192.168.1.99 pref 100 table ctdb.192.168.1.99
+ ip route add 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth2 table ctdb.192.168.1.99
+ </screen>
+
+ <para>
+ This causes traffic from 192.168.1.99 to 192.168.1.0/24 go via
+ eth2.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The <command>ip rule</command> command will show (something
+ like - depending on other public addresses and other routes on
+ the system):
+ </para>
+
+ <screen>
+ 0: from all lookup local
+ 100: from 192.168.1.99 lookup ctdb.192.168.1.99
+ 32766: from all lookup main
+ 32767: from all lookup default
+ </screen>
+
+ <para>
+ <command>ip route show table ctdb.192.168.1.99</command> will show:
+ </para>
+
+ <screen>
+ 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth2 scope link
+ </screen>
+
+ <para>
+ The usual use for a line containing a gateway is to add a
+ default route corresponding to a particular source address.
+ Consider this line of configuration:
+ </para>
+
+ <screen>
+ 192.168.1.99 0.0.0.0/0 192.168.1.1
+ </screen>
+
+ <para>
+ In the situation described above this will cause an extra
+ routing command to be executed:
+ </para>
+
+ <screen>
+ ip route add 0.0.0.0/0 via 192.168.1.1 dev eth2 table ctdb.192.168.1.99
+ </screen>
+
+ <para>
+ With both configuration lines, <command>ip route show table
+ ctdb.192.168.1.99</command> will show:
+ </para>
+
+ <screen>
+ 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth2 scope link
+ default via 192.168.1.1 dev eth2
+ </screen>
+ </refsect2>
+

+ <title>REMOTE CLUSTER NODES</title>
+ <para>
+It is possible to have a CTDB cluster that spans across a WAN link.
+For example where you have a CTDB cluster in your datacentre but you also
+want to have one additional CTDB node located at a remote branch site.
+This is similar to how a WAN accelerator works but with the difference
+that while a WAN-accelerator often acts as a Proxy or a MitM, in
+the ctdb remote cluster node configuration the Samba instance at the remote site
+IS the genuine server, not a proxy and not a MitM, and thus provides 100%
+correct CIFS semantics to clients.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ See the cluster as one single multihomed samba server where one of
+ the NICs (the remote node) is very far away.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ NOTE: This does require that the cluster filesystem you use can cope
+ with WAN-link latencies. Not all cluster filesystems can handle
+ WAN-link latencies! Whether this will provide very good WAN-accelerator
+ performance or it will perform very poorly depends entirely
+ on how optimized your cluster filesystem is in handling high latency
+ for data and metadata operations.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ To activate a node as being a remote cluster node you need to
+ set the following two parameters in
+ /usr/local/etc/ctdb/ctdb.conf for the remote node:
+ <screen format="linespecific">
+[legacy]
+ lmaster capability = false
+ leader capability = false
+ </screen>
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Verify with the command "ctdb getcapabilities" that that node no longer
+ has the leader or the lmaster capabilities.

+#!/bin/sh
+
+# This is an example CTDB NFS callout script for Ganesha. It is based
+# on the last version of 60.ganesha shipped with CTDB. As such, it
+# does not try to monitor RPC services that were not monitored by
+# 60.ganesha - this might be a useful improvement. It has also not
+# been properly tested.
+
+# You should check your version of NFS Ganesha to see if it ships with
+# a newer callout.
+
+# To use this:
+#
+# * Set CTDB_NFS_CALLOUT in your CTDB configuration to point to (a
+# copy of) this script, making sure it is executable.
+#
+# * Create a new directory alongside the nfs-checks.d directory, for
+# example nfs-checks-ganesha.d. Install 20.nfs-ganesha.check in
+# this directory. Symlink to any other check files from
+# nfs-checks.d that should still be used, such as
+# 00.portmapper.check. Set CTDB_NFS_CHECKS_DIR to point to this new
+# directory of check files.
+#
+# * It is recommended, but not required, to install the grace_period
+# script (usually shipped in a utils package for NFS-Ganesha) to
+# /usr/bin/grace_period
+
+# I (Martin Schwenke) hereby relicense all of my contributions to this
+# callout (and, previously, to 60.ganesha) to a license compatible
+# with NFS Ganesha (right now this is LGPLv3, but I'm flexible).
+# There may be other contributions to be considered for relicensing,
+# particularly those in commit 28cbe527d47822f870e8252495ab2a1c8fddd12f.

+Read-Only locks in CTDB
+=======================
+
+Problem
+=======
+CTDB currently only supports exclusive Read-Write locks for clients(samba) accessing the
+TDB databases.
+This mostly works well but when very many clients are accessing the same file,
+at the same time, this causes the exclusive lock as well as the record itself to
+rapidly bounce between nodes and acts as a scalability limitation.
+
+This primarily affects locking.tdb and brlock.tdb, two databases where record access is
+read-mostly and where writes are semi-rare.
+
+For the common case, if CTDB provided shared non-exclusive Read-Only lock semantics
+this would greatly improve scaling for these workloads.
+
+
+Desired properties
+==================
+We can not make backward incompatible changes the ctdb_ltdb header for the records.
+
+A Read-Only lock enabled ctdb demon must be able to interoperate with a non-Read-Only
+lock enbled daemon.
+
+Getting a Read-Only lock should not be slower than getting a Read-Write lock.
+
+When revoking Read-Only locks for a record, this should involve only those nodes that
+currently hold a Read-Only lock and should avoid broadcasting opportunistic revocations.
+(must track which nodes are delegated to)
+
+When a Read-Write lock is requested, if there are Read-Only locks delegated to other
+nodes, the DMASTER will defer the record migration until all read-only locks are first
+revoked (synchronous revoke).
+
+Due to the cost of revoking Read-Only locks has on getting a Read-Write lock, the
+implementation should try to avoid creating Read-Only locks unless it has indication
+that there is contention. This may mean that even if client requests a Read-Only lock
+we might still provide a full Read-Write lock in order to avoid the cost of revoking
+the locks in some cases.
+
+Read-Only locks require additional state to be stored in a separate database, containing
+information about which nodes have have been delegated Read-Only locks.
+This database should be kept at minimal size.
+
+Read-Only locks should not significantly complicate the normal record
+create/migration/deletion cycle for normal records.
+
+Read-Only locks should not complicate the recovery process.
+
+Read-Only locks should not complicate the vacuuming process.
+
+We should avoid forking new child processes as far as possible from the main daemon.
+
+Client-side implementation, samba, libctdb, others, should have minimal impact when
+Read-Only locks are implemented.
+Client-side implementation must be possible with only minor conditionals added to the
+existing lock-check-fetch-unlock loop that clients use today for Read-Write locks. So
+that clients only need one single loop that can handle both Read-Write locking as well
+as Read-Only locking. Clients should not need two nearly identical loops.
+
+
+Implementation
+==============
+
+Four new flags are allocated in the ctdb_ltdb record header.
+HAVE_DELEGATIONS, HAVE_READONLY_LOCK, REVOKING_READONLY and REVOKE_COMPLETE
+
+HAVE_DELEGATIONS is a flag that can only be set on the node that is currently the
+DMASTER for the record. When set, this flag indicates that there are Read-Only locks
+delegated to other nodes in the cluster for this record.
+
+HAVE_READONLY is a flag that is only set on nodes that are NOT the DMASTER for the
+record. If set this flag indicates that this record contains an up-to-date Read-Only
+version of this record. A client that only needs to read, but not to write, the record
+can safely use the content of this record as is regardless of the value of the DMASTER
+field of the record.
+
+REVOKING_READONLY is a flag that is used while a set of read only delegations are being
+revoked.
+This flag is only set when HAVE_DELEGATIONS is also set, and is cleared at the same time
+as HAVE_DELEGATIONS is cleared.
+Normal operations is that first the HAVE_DELEGATIONS flag is set when the first
+delegation is generated. When the delegations are about to be revoked, the
+REVOKING_READONLY flag is set too.
+Once all delegations are revoked, both flags are cleared at the same time.
+While REVOKING_READONLY is set, any requests for the record, either normal request or
+request for readonly will be deferred.
+Deferred requests are linked on a list for deferred requests until the time that the
+revokation is completed.
+This flags is set by the main ctdb daemon when it starts revoking this record.
+
+REVOKE_COMPLETE
+The actual revoke of records is done by a child process, spawned from the main ctdb
+daemon when it starts the process to revoke the records.
+Once the child process has finished revoking all delegations it will set the flag
+REVOKE_COMPLETE for this record to signal to the main daemon that the record has been
+successfully revoked.
+At this stage the child process will also trigger an event in the main daemon that
+revoke is complete and that the main daemon should start re-processing all deferred
+requests.
+
+
+
+Once the revoke process is completed there will be at least one deferred request to
+access this record. That is the initical call to for an exclusive fetch_lock() that
+triggered the revoke process to be started.
+In addition to this deferred request there may also be additional requests that have
+also become deferred while the revoke was in process. These can be either exclusive
+fetch_locks() or they can be readonly lock requests.
+Once the revoke is completed the main daemon will reprocess all exclusive fetch_lock()
+requests immediately and respond to these clients.
+Any requests for readadonly lock requests will be deferred for an additional period of
+time before they are re-processed.
+This is to allow the client that needs a fetch_lock() to update the record to get some
+time to access and work on the record without having to compete with the possibly
+very many readonly requests.
+
+
+
+
+
+The ctdb_db structure is expanded so that it contains one extra TDB database for each
+normal, non-persistent database.
+This new database is used for tracking delegations for the records.
+A record in the normal database that has "HAVE_DELEGATION" set will always have a
+corresponding record at the same key. This record contains the set of all nodes that
+the record is delegated to.
+This tracking database is lockless, using TDB_NOLOCK, and is only ever accessed by
+the main ctdbd daemon.
+The lockless nature and the fact that no other process ever access this TDB means we
+are guaranteed non-blocking access to records in the tracking database.
+
+The ctdb_call PDU is allocated with a new flag WANT_READONLY and possibly also a new
+callid: CTDB_FETCH_WITH_HEADER_FUNC.
+This new function returns not only the record, as CTDB_FETCH_FUNC does, but also
+returns the full ctdb_ltdb record HEADER prepended to the record.
+This function is optional, clients that do not care what the header is can continue
+using just CTDB_FETCH_FUNC
+
+
+This flag is used to requesting a read-only record from the DMASTER/LMASTER.
+If the record does not yet exist, this is a returned as an error to the client and the
+client will retry the request loop.
+
+A new control is added to make remote nodes remove the HAVE_READONLY_LOCK from a record
+and to invalidate any deferred readonly copies from the databases.
+
+
+
+Client implementation
+=====================
+Clients today use a loop for record fetch lock that looks like this
+ try_again:
+ lock record in tdb
+
+ if record does not exist in tdb,
+ unlock record
+ ask ctdb to migrate record onto the node
+ goto try_again
+
+ if record dmaster != this node pnn
+ unlock record
+ ask ctdb to migrate record onto the node
+ goto try_again
+
+ finished:
+
+where we basically spin, until the record is migrated onto the node and we have managed
+to pin it down.
+
+This will change to instead to something like
+
+ try_again:
+ lock record in tdb
+
+ if record does not exist in tdb,
+ unlock record
+ ask ctdb to migrate record onto the node
+ goto try_again
+
+ if record dmaster == current node pnn
+ goto finished
+
+ if read-only lock
+ if HAVE_READONLY_LOCK or HAVE_DELEGATIONS is set
+ goto finished
+ else
+ unlock record
+ ask ctdb for read-only copy (WANT_READONLY[|WITH_HEADER])
+ if failed to get read-only copy (*A)
+ ask ctdb to migrate the record onto the node
+ goto try_again
+ lock record in tdb
+ goto finished
+
+ unlock record
+ ask ctdb to migrate record onto the node
+ goto try_again
+
+ finished:
+
+If the record does not yet exist in the local TDB, we always perform a full fetch for a
+Read-Write lock even if only a Read-Only lock was requested.
+This means that for first access we always grab a Read-Write lock and thus upgrade any
+requests for Read-Only locks into a Read-Write request.
+This creates the record, migrates it onto the node and makes the local node become
+the DMASTER for the record.
+
+Future reference to this same record by the local samba daemons will still access/lock
+the record locally without triggereing a Read-Only delegation to be created since the
+record is already hosted on the local node as DMASTER.
+
+Only if the record is contended, i.e. it has been created an migrated onto the node but
+we are no longer the DMASTER for this record, only for this case will we create a
+Read-Only delegation.
+This heuristics provide a mechanism where we will not create Read-Only delegations until
+we have some indication that the record may be contended.
+
+This avoids creating and revoking Read-Only delegations when only a single client is
+repeatedly accessing the same set of records.
+This also aims to limit the size of the tracking tdb.
+
+
+Server implementation
+=====================
+When receiving a ctdb_call with the WANT_READONLY flag:
+
+If this is the LMASTER for the record and the record does not yet exist, LMASTER will
+return an error back to the client (*A above) and the client will try to recover.
+In particular, LMASTER will not create a new record for this case.
+
+If this is the LMASTER for the record and the record exists, the PDU will be forwarded to
+the DMASTER for the record.
+
+If this node is not the DMASTER for this record, we forward the PDU back to the
+LMASTER. Just as we always do today.
+
+If this is the DMASTER for the record, we need to create a Read-Only delegation.
+This is done by
+ lock record
+ increase the RSN by one for this record
+ set the HAVE_DELEGATIONS flag for the record
+ write the updated record to the TDB
+ create/update the tracking TDB nd add this new node to the set of delegations
+ send a modified copy of the record back to the requesting client.
+ modifications are that RSN is decremented by one, so delegated records are "older" than on the DMASTER,
+ it has HAVE_DELEGATIONS flag stripped off, and has HAVE_READONLY_LOCK added.
+ unlock record
+
+Important to note is that this does not trigger a record migration.
+
+
+When receiving a ctdb_call without the WANT_READONLY flag:
+
+If this is the DMASTER for the this might trigger a migration. If there exists
+delegations we must first revoke these before allowing the Read-Write request from
+proceeding. So,
+IF the record has HAVE_DELEGATIONS set, we create a child process and defer processing
+of this PDU until the child process has completed.
+
+From the child process we will call out to all nodes that have delegations for this
+record and tell them to invalidate this record by clearing the HAVE_READONLY_LOCK from
+the record.
+Once all delegated nodes respond back, the child process signals back to the main daemon
+the revoke has completed. (child process may not access the tracking tdb since it is
+lockless)
+
+Main process is triggered to re-process the PDU once the child process has finished.
+Main daemon deletes the corresponding record in the tracking database, clears the
+HAVE_DELEGATIONS flag for the record and then proceeds to perform the migration as usual.
+
+When receiving a ctdb_call without the flag we want all delegations to be revoked,
+so we must take care that the delegations are revoked unconditionally before we even
+check if we are already the DMASTER (in which case the ctdb_call would normally just
+be no-op (*B below))
+
+
+
+Recovery process changes
+========================
+A recovery implicitly clears/revokes any read only records and delegations from all
+databases.
+
+During delegations of Read-Only locks, this is done in such way that delegated records
+will have a RSN smaller than the DMASTER. This guarantees that read-only copies always
+have a RSN that is smaller than the DMASTER.
+
+During recoveries we do not need to take any special action other than always picking
+the copy of the record that has the highest RSN, which is what we already do today.
+
+During the recovery process, we strip all flags off all records while writing the new
+content of the database during the PUSH_DB control.
+
+During processing of the PUSH_DB control and once the new database has been written we
+then also wipe the tracking database.
+
+This makes changes to the recovery process minimal and nonintrusive.
+
+
+
+Vacuuming process
+=================
+Vacuuming needs only minimal changes.
+
+
+When vacuuming runs, it will do a fetch_lock to migrate any remote records back onto the
+LMASTER before the record can be purged. This will automatically force all delegations
+for that record to be revoked before the migration is copied back onto the LMASTER.
+This handles the case where LMASTER is not the DMASTER for the record that will be
+purged.
+The migration in this case does force any delegations to be revoked before the
+vacuuming takes place.
+
+Missing is the case when delegations exist and the LMASTER is also the DMASTER.
+For this case we need to change the vacuuming to unconditionally always try to do a
+fetch_lock when HAVE_DELEGATIONS is set, even if the record is already stored locally.
+(*B)
+This fetch lock will not cause any migrations by the ctdb daemon, but since it does
+not have the WANT_READONLY this will still force the delegations to be revoked but no
+migration will trigger.
+
+
+Traversal process
+=================
+Traversal process is changed to ignore any records with the HAVE_READONLY_LOCK
+
+
+Forward/Backward Compatibility
+==============================
+Non-readonly locking daemons must be able to interoperate with readonly locking enabled daemons.
+
+Non-readonly enabled daemons fetching records from Readonly enabled daemons:
+Non-readonly enabled daemons do not know, and never set the WANT_READONLY flag so these daemons will always request a full migration for a full fetch-lock for all records. Thus a request from a non-readonly enabled daemon will always cause any existing delegations to be immediately revoked. Access will work but performance may be harmed since there will be a lot of revoking of delegations.
+
+Readonly enabled daemons fetching records with WANT_READONLY from non-readonly enabled daemons:
+Non-readonly enabled daemons ignore the WANT_READONLY flag and never return delegations. They always return a full record migration.
+Full record migration is allowed by the protocol, even if the originator only requests the 'hint' WANT_READONLY,
+so this access also interoperates between daemons with different capabilities.
