<para> |
47 |
The <command>&dhpackage;</command> is a periodically run script |
48 |
which is responsible for keeping the instances in the correct |
49 |
status. |
50 |
</para> |
51 |
|
52 |
<para> |
53 |
Its primary function is to try to keep running all instances |
54 |
which are marked as <emphasis>up</emphasis> in the configuration |
55 |
file, by trying to start them a limited number of times. |
56 |
</para> |
57 |
|
58 |
<para> |
59 |
Its other function is to <quote>repair</quote> DRBD links by |
60 |
reactivating the block devices of instances which have |
61 |
secondaries on nodes that have been rebooted. |
62 |
</para> |
63 |
|
64 |
<para>In order to prevent piling up commands, all the |
65 |
<emphasis>gnt-*</emphasis> commands executed by ganeti-watcher are |
66 |
run with a timeout of 15 seconds. |
67 |
</para> |
68 |
|
69 |
<para> |
70 |
The command has a state file located at |
71 |
<filename>@LOCALSTATEDIR@/lib/ganeti/restart_state</filename> and a log |
72 |
file at |
73 |
<filename>@LOCALSTATEDIR@/log/ganeti/watcher.log</filename>. Removal of |
74 |
either file will not affect correct operation; the removal of |
75 |
the state file will just cause the restart counters for the |
76 |
instances to reset to zero. |
