5장. Configuring an active/passive NFS server in a Red Hat High Availability cluster

Procedure

1. On both nodes of the cluster, perform the following steps to set the value for the LVM system ID to the value of the uname identifier for the system. The LVM system ID will be used to ensure that only the cluster is capable of activating the volume group.

   1. Set the system_id_source configuration option in the /etc/lvm/lvm.conf configuration file to uname.

      # Configuration option global/system_id_source.
      system_id_source = "uname"

   2. Verify that the LVM system ID on the node matches the uname for the node.

      # lvm systemid
        system ID: z1.example.com
      # uname -n
        z1.example.com

2. Create the LVM volume and create an XFS file system on that volume. Since the /dev/sdb1 partition is storage that is shared, you perform this part of the procedure on one node only.

   1. Create an LVM physical volume on partition /dev/sdb1.

      [root@z1 ~]# pvcreate /dev/sdb1
        Physical volume "/dev/sdb1" successfully created

   2. Create the volume group my_vg that consists of the physical volume /dev/sdb1.

      Specify the --setautoactivation n flag to ensure that volume groups managed by Pacemaker in a cluster will not be automatically activated on startup. If you are using an existing volume group for the LVM volume you are creating, you can reset this flag with the vgchange --setautoactivation n command for the volume group.

      [root@z1 ~]# vgcreate --setautoactivation n my_vg /dev/sdb1
        Volume group "my_vg" successfully created

      참고

      If your LVM volume group contains one or more physical volumes that reside on remote block storage, such as an iSCSI target, Red Hat recommends that you ensure that the service starts before Pacemaker starts. For information about configuring startup order for a remote physical volume used by a Pacemaker cluster, see Configuring startup order for resource dependencies not managed by Pacemaker.

   3. Verify that the new volume group has the system ID of the node on which you are running and from which you created the volume group.

      [root@z1 ~]# vgs -o+systemid
        VG    #PV #LV #SN Attr   VSize  VFree  System ID
        my_vg   1   0   0 wz--n- <1.82t <1.82t z1.example.com

   4. Create a logical volume using the volume group my_vg.

      [root@z1 ~]# lvcreate -L450 -n my_lv my_vg
        Rounding up size to full physical extent 452.00 MiB
        Logical volume "my_lv" created

      You can use the lvs command to display the logical volume.

      [root@z1 ~]# lvs
        LV      VG      Attr      LSize   Pool Origin Data%  Move Log Copy%  Convert
        my_lv   my_vg   -wi-a---- 452.00m
        ...

   5. Create an XFS file system on the logical volume my_lv.

      [root@z1 ~]# mkfs.xfs /dev/my_vg/my_lv
      meta-data=/dev/my_vg/my_lv       isize=512    agcount=4, agsize=28928 blks
               =                       sectsz=512   attr=2, projid32bit=1
      ...

3. If the use of a devices file is enabled with the use_devicesfile = 1 parameter in the lvm.conf file, add the shared device to the devices file on the second node in the cluster. This feature is enabled by default.

   [root@z2 ~]# lvmdevices --adddev /dev/sdb1
