|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|

.Nm

file is used by both
|
|
.Xr hastd 8
|
|
daemon
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr hastctl 8
|
|
control utility.
|
|
Configuration file is designed in a way that exactly the same file can be
|
|
(and should be) used on both HAST nodes.
|
|
Every line starting with # is treated as comment and ignored.

|
|
Most of the various available configuration parameters are optional.
|
|
If parameter is not defined in the particular section, it will be
|
|
inherited from the parent section.
|
|
For example, if the
|
|
.Ic listen
|
|
parameter is not defined in the node section, it will be inherited from
|
|
the global section.
|
|
In case the global section does not define the
|
|
.Ic listen
|
|
parameter at all, the default value will be used.
|
|
.Sh CONFIGURATION FILE DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Aq node
|
|
argument can be replaced either by a full hostname as obtained by
|
|
.Xr gethostname 3 ,
|
|
only first part of the hostname, by node's UUID as found in the
|
|
.Va kern.hostuuid
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
variable
|
|
or by node's hostid as found in the
|
|
.Va kern.hostid
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
variable.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following statements are available:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Ic xxxx"
|
|
.It Ic control Aq addr
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Address for communication with
|
|
.Xr hastctl 8 .
|
|
Each of the following examples defines the same control address:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
uds:///var/run/hastctl
|
|
unix:///var/run/hastctl
|
|
/var/run/hastctl
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The default value is
|
|
.Pa uds:///var/run/hastctl .
|
|
.It Ic pidfile Aq path
|
|
.Pp
|
|
File in which to store the process ID of the main
|
|
.Xr hastd 8
|
|
process.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The default value is
|
|
.Pa /var/run/hastd.pid .
|
|
.It Ic listen Aq addr
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Address to listen on in form of:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
protocol://protocol-specific-address
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Each of the following examples defines the same listen address:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
0.0.0.0
|
|
0.0.0.0:8457
|
|
tcp://0.0.0.0
|
|
tcp://0.0.0.0:8457
|
|
tcp4://0.0.0.0
|
|
tcp4://0.0.0.0:8457
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Multiple listen addresses can be specified.
|
|
By default
|
|
.Nm hastd
|
|
listens on
|
|
.Pa tcp4://0.0.0.0:8457
|
|
and
|
|
.Pa tcp6://[::]:8457
|
|
if kernel supports IPv4 and IPv6 respectively.
|
|
.It Ic replication Aq mode
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Replication mode should be one of the following:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Ic xxxx"
|
|
.It Ic memsync
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Report the write operation as completed when local write completes and
|
|
when the remote node acknowledges the data receipt, but before it
|
|
actually stores the data.
|
|
The data on remote node will be stored directly after sending
|
|
acknowledgement.
|
|
This mode is intended to reduce latency, but still provides a very good
|
|
reliability.
|
|
The only situation where some small amount of data could be lost is when
|
|
the data is stored on primary node and sent to the secondary.
|
|
Secondary node then acknowledges data receipt and primary reports
|
|
success to an application.
|
|
However, it may happen that the secondary goes down before the received
|
|
data is really stored locally.
|
|
Before secondary node returns, primary node dies entirely.
|
|
When the secondary node comes back to life it becomes the new primary.
|
|
Unfortunately some small amount of data which was confirmed to be stored
|
|
to the application was lost.
|
|
The risk of such a situation is very small.
|
|
The
|
|
.Ic memsync
|
|
replication mode is the default.
|
|
.It Ic fullsync
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Mark the write operation as completed when local as well as remote
|
|
write completes.
|
|
This is the safest and the slowest replication mode.
|
|
.It Ic async
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The write operation is reported as complete right after the local write
|
|
completes.
|
|
This is the fastest and the most dangerous replication mode.
|
|
This mode should be used when replicating to a distant node where
|
|
latency is too high for other modes.
|
|
.El
|
|
.It Ic checksum Aq algorithm
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Checksum algorithm should be one of the following:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Ic sha256"
|
|
.It Ic none
|
|
No checksum will be calculated for the data being send over the network.
|
|
This is the default setting.
|
|
.It Ic crc32
|
|
CRC32 checksum will be calculated.
|
|
.It Ic sha256
|
|
SHA256 checksum will be calculated.
|
|
.El
|
|
.It Ic compression Aq algorithm
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Compression algorithm should be one of the following:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Ic none"
|
|
.It Ic none
|
|
Data send over the network will not be compressed.
|
|
.It Ic hole
|
|
Only blocks that contain all zeros will be compressed.
|
|
This is very useful for initial synchronization where potentially many blocks
|
|
are still all zeros.
|
|
There should be no measurable performance overhead when this algorithm is being
|
|
used.
|
|
This is the default setting.
|
|
.It Ic lzf
|
|
The LZF algorithm by Marc Alexander Lehmann will be used to compress the data
|
|
send over the network.
|
|
LZF is very fast, general purpose compression algorithm.
|
|
.El
|
|
.It Ic timeout Aq seconds
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Connection timeout in seconds.
|
|
The default value is
|
|
.Va 20 .
|
|
.It Ic exec Aq path
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Execute the given program on various HAST events.
|
|
Below is the list of currently implemented events and arguments the given
|
|
program is executed with:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Ic xxxx"
|
|
.It Ic "<path> role <resource> <oldrole> <newrole>"
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Executed on both primary and secondary nodes when resource role is changed.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic "<path> connect <resource>"
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Executed on both primary and secondary nodes when connection for the given
|
|
resource between the nodes is established.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic "<path> disconnect <resource>"
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Executed on both primary and secondary nodes when connection for the given
|
|
resource between the nodes is lost.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic "<path> syncstart <resource>"
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Executed on primary node when synchronization process of secondary node is
|
|
started.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic "<path> syncdone <resource>"
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Executed on primary node when synchronization process of secondary node is
|
|
completed successfully.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic "<path> syncintr <resource>"
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Executed on primary node when synchronization process of secondary node is
|
|
interrupted, most likely due to secondary node outage or connection failure
|
|
between the nodes.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic "<path> split-brain <resource>"
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Executed on both primary and secondary nodes when split-brain condition is
|
|
detected.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.El
|
|
The
|
|
.Aq path
|
|
argument should contain full path to executable program.
|
|
If the given program exits with code different than
|
|
.Va 0 ,
|
|
.Nm hastd
|
|
will log it as an error.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Aq resource
|
|
argument is resource name from the configuration file.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Aq oldrole
|
|
argument is previous resource role (before the change).
|
|
It can be one of:
|
|
.Ar init ,
|
|
.Ar secondary ,
|
|
.Ar primary .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Aq newrole
|
|
argument is current resource role (after the change).
|
|
It can be one of:
|
|
.Ar init ,
|
|
.Ar secondary ,
|
|
.Ar primary .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic metaflush on | off
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When set to
|
|
.Va on ,
|
|
flush write cache of the local provider after every metadata (activemap) update.
|
|
Flushing write cache ensures that provider will not reorder writes and that
|
|
metadata will be properly updated before real data is stored.
|
|
If the local provider does not support flushing write cache (it returns
|
|
.Er EOPNOTSUPP
|
|
on the
|
|
.Cm BIO_FLUSH
|
|
request),
|
|
.Nm hastd
|
|
will disable
|
|
.Ic metaflush
|
|
automatically.
|
|
The default value is
|
|
.Va on .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic name Aq name
|
|
.Pp
|
|
GEOM provider name that will appear as
|
|
.Pa /dev/hast/<name> .
|
|
If name is not defined, resource name will be used as provider name.
|
|
.It Ic local Aq path
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Path to the local component which will be used as backend provider for
|
|
the resource.
|
|
This can be either GEOM provider or regular file.
|
|
.It Ic remote Aq addr
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Address of the remote
|
|
.Nm hastd
|
|
daemon.
|
|
Format is the same as for the
|
|
.Ic listen
|
|
statement.
|
|
When operating as a primary node this address will be used to connect to
|
|
the secondary node.
|
|
When operating as a secondary node only connections from this address
|
|
will be accepted.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A special value of
|
|
.Va none
|
|
can be used when the remote address is not yet known (eg. the other node is not
|
|
set up yet).
|
|
.It Ic source Aq addr
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Local address to bind to before connecting to the remote
|
|
.Nm hastd
|
|
daemon.
|
|
Format is the same as for the
|
|
.Ic listen
|
|
