Hi!

I think I stumbled on at least two bugs in the CentOS 7.2 pacemaker package, though I’m not quite sure if or where to report it.

I’m using the following package to set up a 2-node active/passive cluster:

[root@clnode1 ~]# rpm -q pacemaker pacemaker-1.1.13-10.el7_2.4.x86_64

The installation is up-to-date on both nodes as of the current PIT.

I have currently the following cluster resources running:

[root@clnode2 ~]# pcs status Cluster name: rucluster1
Last updated: Fri Nov 25 11:26:51 2016 Last change: Fri Nov 25 10:51:32 2016 by root via cibadmin on clnode1
Stack: corosync Current DC: clnode2 (version 1.1.13-10.el7_2.4-44eb2dd) – partition with quorum
2 nodes and 12 resources configured

Online: [ clnode1 clnode2 ]

Full list of resources:

clnode2: Online

Daemon Status:

The first bug is rather serious, though a workaround exists!

The cluster works fine, but as soon as I add a cluster resource of class “service”, the cluster manager software runs havoc on node failover. In that situation, the lrmd process hangs in an infinite loop (neither strace nor ltrace show any outout so it seems to be an internal loop without any system or library call) and almost any call to the cluster manager software (crmsh or pcs) runs into a timeout. It’s quite hard to recover the whole cluster from this situation.

When I replace the resource class “service” with resource class
“systemd”, everything seems to work just fine.

I found a rather old, already closed bug for Fedora which looks similar:

Another bug seems to be rather minor: I see following assertions in the corosync logs:

Nov 25 11:13:56 [3206] clnode1 crmd: error: crm_abort: pcmkRegisterNode: Triggered assert at xml.c:594 : node->type == XML_ELEMENT_NODE

They seem to be related with the drbd resource, but do not cause any functional problem it seems.

For this particular problem I found the following patch:

Are these already known bugs?
(I searched the CentOS bugzilla site but couldn’t find any ticket describing these bugs)

Any advise on if or where I should report it?

Thanks!
