Hardware Kai Blin CC-BY-SA 3.0 Cluster Briefcase (12 / 25)

Basic Setup ◮ Set up RaspberryPis ◮ It’s in GitHub: https://github.com/kblin/rpi-cluster # Push system on pre -partitioned SD card at /dev/mmcblk0 ./ install/format.sh # restore host -specific config ./ install/bootstrap.sh <hostname > # Done :) # Ok , actually , you still need to put SD into the # RPi , boot , and pacman -S python2 Kai Blin CC-BY-SA 3.0 Cluster Briefcase (13 / 25)

Ansible ◮ Use to bootstrap the setup ◮ It’s in GitHub: https://github.com/kblin/rpi-ctdb-ansible # First install GlusterFS ansible -playbook -i inventory install_gluster .yml # For now , we need a custom version of the Samba packages pacman -U samba*xz # Then install Samba stuff ansible -playbook -i inventory install_samba .yml] Kai Blin CC-BY-SA 3.0 Cluster Briefcase (14 / 25)

CTDB ◮ Need to add --with-clustering to ArchLinux build ◮ Binaries packaged, config files not ◮ Copy over files using Ansible ◮ Some fixes to config files needed for Arch ◮ Tweaks to startup scripts ◮ Details on GitHub Kai Blin CC-BY-SA 3.0 Cluster Briefcase (15 / 25)

Samba smb.conf [global] # Cluster settings clustering = yes # Load shares from registry ctdb:registry.tdb=yes include=registry Kai Blin CC-BY-SA 3.0 Cluster Briefcase (16 / 25)

Samba (cont.) net conf setparm global "workgroup" "CLUSTER" net conf setparm global "netbios name" "storage" net conf setparm global "security" "user" net conf setparm global "idmap backend" "tdb2" net conf addshare public /data/packages \ writeable=y guest_ok=N "Demo share" Kai Blin CC-BY-SA 3.0 Cluster Briefcase (17 / 25)

DNS ◮ Round-robin A record for public IPs ◮ Here: dnsmasq and /etc/hosts ◮ Should use BIND in real setup ◮ Or maybe Samba DNS once we implement round-robin Kai Blin CC-BY-SA 3.0 Cluster Briefcase (18 / 25)

SCHED FIFO ◮ Not working in ARM for some reason ◮ Fortunately, CTDB doesn’t need it Kai Blin CC-BY-SA 3.0 Cluster Briefcase (20 / 25)

GlusterFS ◮ Locking doesn’t work properly (yet) Kai Blin CC-BY-SA 3.0 Cluster Briefcase (21 / 25)

Future Plans ◮ Get CTDB packaged in ArchLinux ◮ Go fully self-contained ◮ 2-node cluster + 1 Samba AD DC? Kai Blin CC-BY-SA 3.0 Cluster Briefcase (24 / 25)
