what is conga, lucci and ricci in linux cluster? I have been searching on the net too for information about these options but i need still more clarity. How to download conga, lucci and ricci
View 1 RepliesI came across this while trying to find a solution for my load-balancing clustering issue in another thread. Since I perceive this as something on its own, I decided to post a new thread. I came across this site to setup a two-server cluster using Conga - Luci and Ricci.
From my understanding, this is what was done:-
1. Both servers have luci running using a shared storage via GFS to provide a failover
2. Both (and same) servers have ricci agent running for the clustering
I'm aware that Conga clustering aim to achieve High-Availability.
1. Can it also achieve Load-Balancing?
2. If yes, would the guide from the link above be sufficient or would they be additional setup/pre-req to be done? Since I'm new to this area and there was no mention of load-balancing, I'm still wondering if this is what I need to incorporate.
I am trying to create a cluster using conga and i am stuck at creating a fencing. I have no idea as what fencing device i have on my server or what fencing method to choose in creating the cluster. Can someone help me in this issue. I am trying to create cluster with 3 nodes (dell r910 machines with dell md3200 storage array )running redhat linux.

I am trying to create a HTTP cluster so that if in case of one node fails
- Shared partition (/data) in my case gets mounted on the other node
- Also, HTTP services can be started on the other node.
/data has the index.html file which is read by HTTP. Also, I have configured HTTP such that it only listens to 192.168.1.100 (shared IP) on port 80.
Code:
I have configured the cluster, service "sharedIP" which has IP 192.168.1.100; I took help of this doc.
Code:
Member Status: Quorate
I have tested the service sharedIP failover by powering off the machines one by one.
I used the below command for failover
Code:
Now, I need to try running apache from shared IP 192.168.1.100 which will fetch file from /data/index.html
I tried no. of times to configure service and resource for apache.
But somehow, it is not happening. My apache bin is /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start|stop
I have given such long info to help some other newbie. I will certainly write a HOW-TO for this.
I try to set up a 5 nodes cluster and a shared Coraid Storage with conga but it fails with "Shared Storage Support" checked.The message is:'A problem occurred when installing packages: Packages of set "Clustered Storage" are not present in available repository' and it is shown under every node on the next sceen after I submit.The pc where conga runs is on the same subnet (192.168.xxx.xxx) and it has the same /etc/hosts of the other nodes.In that pc runs a proxy too and the nodes go out through it (that pc has 2 NICs)Every node (2.6.18-128.1.14.el5-xen-x86_64) is patched whith the last yum update (this morning) the same is for the pc (2.6.18-128.1.14.el5).Every node has 4 NICs , 2 NICc towards the storage the others in bonding towards the WAN.Every node is exactly alike, they have been installed with the ks.cfg generated from the first node and they all have the support for Clustering, Virtualization, and Clustered Storage.

There is no luci_admin and even if I manage to start luci service, I get a blank white screen when I try to open it from the browser. I've googled a bit and found that I'd might be able to setup GFS if I manage to build cluster.conf manually and start the cluster suite, but I cannot find documentation on how to create cluster.conf anywhere. If anyone knows how to setup GFS2 without a cluster suite or how to configure cluster.conf.

After testing it in the lab, I tried to install a new cluster and received the following error: cman not started: Cannot start, cluster name is too long or other CCS error /usr/sbin/cman_tool: aisexec daemon didn't start I've checked the internet for that error, but nothing. I decided to to take the example from cluster.conf man, which looks like that :

And still I get the same error. I can find my servers both from DNS (FQDN and short name) and they also appear in /etc/hosts.
I am working in a project that needs to set up an Apache Web Cluster. The cluster needs to be High-availability (HA) cluster and Load-balancing cluster. Someone mentioned the use of Red Hat Cluster Suite, but, honestly, I can't figure out how it works, I haven't been able to configure it correctly. The project currently have two nodes, but we need to support at least three nodes in the cluster.

I have install the rock cluster on the main server . and I want to connect the client with the PXE boot . when I starting the client then it boot from the PXE boot into the mode of compute node. but it ask the where is to be stored the I have give the path..then server says that not able to find the directory path.
Steps:-
1) insert-ethers
2) client is started with the PXE boot.
3) it detects the dhcp .
4) At last it demand where is to be started by cd-rom, harddisk ,nfs etc.
then I started with the nfs and I have given the lanIp of server.and server is detecting the client but client is not finding the filesystem directory. into export partition directory but it is not taking path.
PATH:-
/export/rock/install it is not finding this path then it is not able to start the o/s from PXE boot..Is there any solution and manual of rock or anyother solution then u can reply to me...

could anybody tell me , does the xen kernel has impacts to the cluster , or is this only a networking problem not a system problem? I monitor the switch mac table, find that , the mac of eth0 is always changing . so maybe it is xen kernel problem. I refer to some xen materials , the eth0 is a virtual adapter .and the original physical adapter eth0 is renamed as pth0 and works as a bridge .so how could I fix a mac address to eth0 ?

I have lack of understanding of CentOS in general. I have looked for a remedy on other forums and google, but haven't been able to find the answer. I have a 3 node cluster that was functioning great until I decided to go offline for awhile. My config is as follows:

Currently vh2 and vh6 connect great, however since putting the machines back online I can no longer connect with vh1. A dmesg command on vh1 reveals the following:

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe are having a production setup where we are having one SAN storage and two RHEL machines. Now we have created a SAN LUN, say for example trylun. Now we have mounted the same SAN partition on both the machines of RHEL on the same mountpoint path say for example /trylun. After that we have installed RHEL Cluster suite to create a failover cluster.
Now we will be having one Ingres Database service for which data will be stored in SAN storage LUN mounted on both the machine say for example /trylun. When service on one machine will be down then RHEL Cluster Suite failover cluster will takeover and then it will start the same service on another node and handle the failover. Wether Ingres will run from node 1 or node 2 will not make any difference as both are using shared SAN storage i.e /trylun in our example. So same data storage will be used by both the ingres service on both the servers.
Now I have to simulate the same in my office test environment. But the problem is, in office test environment I will not have SAN server as it is additional cost. And I will have fedora operating system.
So I wanted to know is how can we create a shared file system like SAN in fedora (Is NFS a solution). And after creating the shared file system how can we create a failover cluster in fedora if we do not have Red Hat Cluster Suite.
This is our first time choosing and installing linux. Our other servers are all windows 2008 x64. We were told to install fedora 13. I can only find a download for the desktop version and we're looking for the SERVER x64 download. Could I please get a link?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI want to set up a cluster for scientific computing (mainly statistical stuff with R). I have a few conceptual questions. First, is there a difference between a Beowulf cluster and a cluster that has single-system image ("SSI," e.g. using openSSI or LinuxPMI)? If so, what's the difference? Second, if there is a difference between Beowulf and SSI, which one is better for scientific computing? Third, does using Eucalyptus make sense for scientific computing or is this more suitable for IO-oriented operations such as web service or databases
View 2 Replies View RelatedI compiled a code on a Linux cluster machine with mpich and ifort. A test run shows that the program works fine. However, it seems that the program is running in serial instead of parallel mode: reducing the number of CPU's from 32 to 3 does not increase the time it takes to run the simulation. Infact, the simulation is slightly faster with 3 compared to 32 CPU's. Unfortunately I have very little experience on the subject.
My questions are:
(1) How can I be 100% sure my code is running in parallel and not in serial mode?
(2) If the code is running serial, what do I need to do to make it run in parallel mode?

My goal is to have multiple servers share a file system, to act as somewhat of a network raid, so if node-A goes down the files are available on other nodes, and hopefully so when the capacity of the nodes are reached I can add nodes to expand the "cluster".

I wanted to know if there is a way to validate a multicast address before using it. For example if it is already in use i don't want to use it.
I read a little about it and there is a Perl module called IO::Socket::Multicast: [URL] There is a tool called mcasttrest.pl: [URL] Oracle use it to test multicast. But I am not sure what will do the trick in Red Hat cluster.

I was wondering if and how it would be possible to put together a sort of Home "cluster" system. pecifically, I wanted to make it so I would have a central server and a few computers, where the central server holds the home folders and settings of each user, and each user can log in to any of the computers using a standardized login (into the server), where anyone could log in with their account on any of the few computers - and their home folder (Desktop, Documents, Music, etc) would automatically be there.
Also if possible, would there be some way to centralize the applications that show up on each "client"?
