[ClusterLabs] large cluster - failure recovery

[Radoslaw Garbacz]

Hi,

I have a cluster of 32 nodes, and after some tuning was able to have it
started and running,
but it does not recover from a node disconnect-connect failure.
It regains quorum, but CIB does not recover to a synchronized state and
"cibadmin -Q" times out.

Is there anything with corosync or pacemaker parameters I can do to make it
recover from such a situation
(everything works for smaller clusters).

In my case it is OK for a node to disconnect (all the major resources are
shutdown)
and later reconnect the cluster (the running monitoring agent will cleanup
and restart major resources if needed),
so I do not have STONITH configured.

Details:
OS: CentOS 6
Pacemaker: Pacemaker 1.1.9-1512.el6
Corosync: Corosync Cluster Engine, version '2.3.2'


Corosync configuration:
        token: 10000
        #token_retransmits_before_loss_const: 10
        consensus: 15000
        join: 1000
        send_join: 80
        merge: 1000
        downcheck: 2000
        #rrp_problem_count_timeout: 5000
        max_network_delay: 150 # for azure

ps. Sorry if should posted on corosync newsgroup, just the CIB
synchronization fails, so this group seemed to me the right place.
