フェイルオーバー
The failover feature allows back ends to automatically switch to a different
server if the current server fails.
フェイルオーバーの構文
サーバーの一覧がカンマ区切り一覧として与えられます。カンマの前後で空白はいくつでも許されます。サーバーは性能の順番で一覧化されます。一覧はサーバーをいくつでも含められます。
For each failover-enabled config option, two variants exist:
primary and backup. The idea is
that servers in the primary list are preferred and backup servers are only
searched if no primary servers can be reached. If a backup server is
selected, a timeout of 31 seconds is set. After this timeout SSSD will
periodically try to reconnect to one of the primary servers. If it succeeds,
it will replace the current active (backup) server.
フェイルオーバーのメカニズム
The failover mechanism distinguishes between a machine and a service. The
back end first tries to resolve the hostname of a given machine; if this
resolution attempt fails, the machine is considered offline. No further
attempts are made to connect to this machine for any other service. If the
resolution attempt succeeds, the back end tries to connect to a service on
this machine. If the service connection attempt fails, then only this
particular service is considered offline and the back end automatically
switches over to the next service. The machine is still considered online
and might still be tried for another service.
Further connection attempts are made to machines or services marked as
offline after a specified period of time; this is currently hard coded to 30
seconds.
If there are no more machines to try, the back end as a whole switches to
offline mode, and then attempts to reconnect every 30 seconds.
Failover time outs and tuning
Resolving a server to connect to can be as simple as running a single DNS
query or can involve several steps, such as finding the correct site or
trying out multiple host names in case some of the configured servers are
not reachable. The more complex scenarios can take some time and SSSD needs
to balance between providing enough time to finish the resolution process
but on the other hand, not trying for too long before falling back to
offline mode. If the SSSD debug logs show that the server resolution is
timing out before a live server is contacted, you can consider changing the
time outs.
This section lists the available tunables. Please refer to their description
in the
sssd.conf5
, manual page.
dns_resolver_server_timeout
Time in milliseconds that sets how long would SSSD talk to a single DNS
server before trying next one.
初期値: 1000
dns_resolver_op_timeout
Time in seconds to tell how long would SSSD try to resolve single DNS query
(e.g. resolution of a hostname or an SRV record) before trying the next
hostname or discovery domain.
初期値: 3
dns_resolver_timeout
How long would SSSD try to resolve a failover service. This service
resolution internally might include several steps, such as resolving DNS SRV
queries or locating the site.
初期値: 6
For LDAP-based providers, the resolve operation is performed as part of an
LDAP connection operation. Therefore, also the
ldap_opt_timeout
timeout should be set to a larger value than
dns_resolver_timeout
which in turn should be set to a larger
value than dns_resolver_op_timeout
which should be larger
than dns_resolver_server_timeout
.
