Chapter 6. Basic Operations


Some basic operations are required for many administrative and troubleshooting tasks. This section covers how to safely perform basic tasks like shutting down and starting up the hyperconverged cluster.

6.1. Shutting down a hyperconverged cluster

Shutting down a hyperconverged cluster is more complex than shutting down a traditional compute or storage cluster. Follow these instructions to shut down your hyperconverged cluster safely.

  1. Log in to the Administration Portal.
  2. Place the hosted engine node into Global Maintenance mode.

    1. Click Compute Hosts and select the hosted engine node.
    2. Click Enable Global HA Maintenance.
  3. Shut down all virtual machines except the hosted engine virtual machine.

    1. Click Compute Virtual Machines.
    2. Select all virtual machines on hyperconverged hosts, except the hosted engine virtual machine.
    3. Click Shut Down. This shuts the virtual machine down gracefully.

      If your virtual machine is not responding, click the dropdown arrow beside Shut Down and click Force Shut Down instead.

  4. Shut down the hosted engine virtual machine.

    1. Log in to the hosted engine node.
    2. Run the following command on the hosted engine node to shut down the hosted engine virtual machine.

      # hosted-engine --vm-shutdown
  5. Shut down all hosts by running the following command on each host.

    # shutdown -h now

6.2. Starting up a hyperconverged cluster

Starting up a hyperconverged cluster is more complex than starting up a traditional compute or storage cluster. Follow these instructions to start up your hyperconverged cluster safely.

  1. Power on all hosts in the cluster.
  2. Ensure that the required services are available.

    1. Verify that the glusterd service started correctly on all hosts.

      # systemctl status glusterd
      ● glusterd.service - GlusterFS, a clustered file-system server
         Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/glusterd.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)
        Drop-In: /etc/systemd/system/glusterd.service.d
                 └─99-cpu.conf
         Active: active (running) since Wed 2018-07-18 11:15:03 IST; 3min 48s ago
         [...]

      If glusterd is not started, start it.

      # systemctl start glusterd
    2. Verify that host networks are available and hosts have IP addresses assigned to the required interfaces.

      # ip addr show
    3. Verify that all hosts are part of the storage cluster (listed as Peer in Cluster (Connected)).

      # gluster peer status
      
      Number of Peers: 2
      
      Hostname: 10.70.37.101
      Uuid: 773f1140-68f7-4861-a996-b1ba97586257
      State: Peer in Cluster (Connected)
      
      Hostname: 10.70.37.102
      Uuid: fc4e7339-9a09-4a44-aa91-64dde2fe8d15
      State: Peer in Cluster (Connected)
    4. Verify that all bricks are shown as online.

      # gluster volume status engine
      Status of volume: engine
      Gluster process                             TCP Port  RDMA Port  Online  Pid

      Task Status of Volume engine
      ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      There are no active volume tasks
  3. Start the hosted engine virtual machine.

    1. Run the following command on the host that you want to be the hosted engine node.

      # hosted-engine --vm-start
    2. Verify that the hosted engine virtual machine has started correctly.

      # hosted-engine --vm-status
  4. Take the hosted engine virtual machine out of Global Maintenance mode.

    1. Log in to the Administration Portal.
    2. Click Compute Hosts and select the hosted engine node.
    3. Click Disable Global HA Maintenance.
  5. Start any other virtual machines using Cockpit.

    1. Click Compute Virtualization.
    2. Select any virtual machines you want to start and click Run.
