I've managed to get a test Redis configuration up and running... however
this is the first time I've played with a master/slave resource, and I'm
noticing some odd behavior in the monitoring actions. Setting in a super
quick monitoring interval of 1 second, I noticed at first only the slave
was being monitored, 2x in each second. Then after changing a bunch of
config options and several cluster restarts, I noticed the monitoring
action had moved to the master, again 2x events in each second.
redis(redis:1)[2203]: 2012/11/12_15:17:52 INFO: redis-server is running
(PID 30759)
redis(redis:1)[2203]: 2012/11/12_15:17:52 INFO: redis-server is running
(PID 30759)
redis(redis:1)[2203]: 2012/11/12_15:17:52 INFO: redis-server is running
(as master)
redis(redis:1)[2203]: 2012/11/12_15:17:52 INFO: redis-server is running
(as master)
Here is my primitive and master/slave definition:
primitive redis ocf:heartbeat:redis \
meta target-role="Master" is-managed="true" \
op monitor interval="1s" role="Master" timeout="5s"
on-fail="restart"
ms redis_clone redis \
meta notify="true" is-managed="true" ordered="false"
interleave="false" globally-unique="false" target-role="Master"
migration-threshold="1"
I'd like to figure out how to make sure both master and slave are actively
monitored. Let me know if you need any more info on my config!
Thank you,
