With the corosync 2.0 stack, pacemakerd really doesn't do anything except launch processes/relaunch processes.  A cluster can be completely functional without a pacemakerd instance running anywhere.  If any of the actual pacemaker components on a node fail, the logic that causes that node to get fenced has nothing to do with pacemakerd.

Hi,

I think that "relaunch processes" of pacemakerd is a very useful function,
so I want to avoid management of a resource in the node in which pacemakerd does not exist.

Though the best solution is to relaunch pacemakerd, if it is difficult,
I think that a shortcut method is to make a node unclean.


And now, I tried Upstart a little bit.

1) started the corosync and pacemaker.

  $ cat /etc/init/pacemaker.conf
  respawn
  script
      [ -f /etc/sysconfig/pacemaker ] && {
          . /etc/sysconfig/pacemaker
      }
      exec /usr/sbin/pacemakerd
  end script

  $ service co start
  Starting Corosync Cluster Engine (corosync):               [  OK  ]
  $ initctl start pacemaker
  pacemaker start/running, process 4702

  $ ps -ef|egrep 'corosync|pacemaker'
  root   4695     1  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 corosync
  root   4702     1  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/sbin/pacemakerd
  496    4703  4702  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/libexec/pacemaker/cib
  root   4704  4702  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/libexec/pacemaker/stonithd
  root   4705  4702  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/libexec/pacemaker/lrmd
  496    4706  4702  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/libexec/pacemaker/attrd
  496    4707  4702  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/libexec/pacemaker/pengine
  496    4708  4702  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/libexec/pacemaker/crmd

2) killed pacemakerd.

  $ pkill -9 pacemakerd
  $ ps -ef|egrep 'corosync|pacemaker'
  root   4695     1  0 17:21 ?    00:00:01 corosync
  496    4703     1  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/libexec/pacemaker/cib
  root   4704     1  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/libexec/pacemaker/stonithd
  root   4705     1  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/libexec/pacemaker/lrmd
  496    4706     1  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/libexec/pacemaker/attrd
  496    4707     1  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/libexec/pacemaker/pengine
  496    4708     1  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/libexec/pacemaker/crmd
  root   4760     1  1 17:24 ?    00:00:00 /usr/sbin/pacemakerd

3) then I stopped pacemakerd. however, some processes did not stop.

  $ initctl stop pacemaker
  pacemaker stop/waiting

  $ ps -ef|egrep 'corosync|pacemaker'
  root   4695     1  0 17:21 ?    00:00:01 corosync
  496    4703     1  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/libexec/pacemaker/cib
  root   4704     1  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/libexec/pacemaker/stonithd
  root   4705     1  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/libexec/pacemaker/lrmd
  496    4706     1  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/libexec/pacemaker/attrd
  496    4707     1  0 17:21 ?    00:00:00 /usr/libexec/pacemaker/pengine
