Hi,

The PCMK_ipc_buffer was already set to 10000000 (10M).

For testing I increased to buffer to 10000000 (100M), without results.

I decreased the buffer to the default 20480 (20K) as it then shows the suggested value.
If I leave it running for a couple of minutes I got these suggested values:

There is definitely something wrong. Is it the printing of the suggested value or is it something else ?

If I check the cib.xml files in /var/lib/pacemaker/cib/ all files are a bit smaller then 300K.

Changing these buffers did not solve my problem not getting results from crm_mon.

Hi All,

I deployed Pacemaker 1.1.12-rc2 on our platform to test the cib changes.
This was needed on our setup as it contains 6 nodes, 150 resources and the cib 
process was using lots of cpu.

With a limited set of resources (6 nodes, 30 resources) everything worked as 
expected, including crm_mon.
When loading the complete set of resources we lost the crm_mon functionality on 
all nodes.
The cluster is running as expected (running all resources) however we don't 
have any visibility.

I noticed that operations performing changes did actually work like (crm resource 
stop <resourcename>),
but crm resource status didn't work (using crmsh-2.0+git46-1.1.x86_64).

I noticed that /dev/shm/qb-cib_ro* files are created, and lsof shows that they 
are both opened by crm_mon and cib.


When executing "crm_mon -1" I get following messages in /var/log/messages (and 
/var/log/pacemaker.log)
Jun 12 12:47:38 [8062] SRV-5-1        cib:   notice: crm_ipcs_sendv:

Jun 12 12:47:38 [8062] SRV-5-1        cib:  warning: do_local_notify:     Sync 
reply to crm_mon failed: No message of desired type


Restarting the pacemaker and cman service of 1 node didn't solve it.


What is causing this problem and how can I resolve it ?
Almost certainly you're hitting IPC limits associated with large clusters.

You should be able to tune:

# PCMK_ipc_buffer=20480

In /etc/sysconfig/pacemaker and then restart the cluster.

Note also:

# For non-systemd based systems, prefix 'export' to each enabled line
