8.3. Moving Resources Due to Connectivity Changes

Setting up the cluster to move resources when external connectivity is lost is a two step process.

Table 6.1, “Resource Properties” describes the properties you can set for a ping resource.

The following example command creates a ping resource that verifies connectivity to gateway.example.com. In practice, you would verify connectivity to your network gateway/router. You configure the ping resource as a clone so that the resource will run on all cluster nodes.

# pcs resource create ping ocf:pacemaker:ping dampen=5s multiplier=1000 host_list=gateway.example.com clone

The following example configures a location constraint rule for the existing resource named Webserver. This will cause the Webserver resource to move to a host that is able to ping gateway.example.com if the host that it is currently running on cannot ping gateway.example.com.

# pcs constraint location Webserver rule score=-INFINITY pingd lt 1 or not_defined pingd
