How to add a 2nd Corosync Link

t.lamprecht said:
Hi,

currently that's only possible through editing the configuration. https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-pvecm.html#_adding_redundant_links_to_an_existing_cluster

There's work on the way do allow adding, editing and removing links through the gui.

I just did that, it seemed to work. The 2nd Link is beeing display in the gui now, too. Also the new Configuration ID/Version.
journalctl -b -u corosync looked good.

However, to test it i did a "ifconfig vmbr0 0.0.0.0" where ring0 is on.
After a few moments it lost quorum and got fenced?

Should it not still be alive via ring1/link1?
Should i not see the other node ips like: 10.10.51.1, 10.10.51.2, 10.10.51.3?

ifup/down are not really good test for corosync stuff, even if it should work with corosync 3 - but actually that specific one seems like a bug only showing up with kernels newer than 5.0 we also found a few weeks ago and which should be gone with the next corosync/kronosnet upgrade.

You can check the link state with corosync-cfgtool -sb

normally it still should though, check the link state if all shows up?

ssh cluster5-node01 "corosync-cfgtool -sb"
Printing link status.
Local node ID 1
LINK ID 0
addr = 172.16.30.212
status = 333


ssh cluster5-node02 "corosync-cfgtool -sb"
Printing link status.
Local node ID 3
LINK ID 0
addr = 172.16.30.213

status = 13n


ssh cluster5-node03 "corosync-cfgtool -sb"
Printing link status.

LINK ID 0
addr = 172.16.30.214

status = 1n3


How shall i test it then properly?

And check what the log on the fenced (or another node) says regarding corosync - it should talk about both links after they got configured..

Yes, it seems kronosnet (the transport tech corosync uses) did not "saw" the new link yet..
But your current corosync output from the other posts says it does now, you could re-check in the current logs.
 
I did restart corosync on all nodes now. Now i am "only" left with link enabled:0 on nodeid 1:


root@cluster5-node01:~# /usr/sbin/corosync-cfgtool -s

status:
nodeid 1: link enabled:0 link connected:1
nodeid 2: link enabled:1 link connected:1
nodeid 3: link enabled:1 link connected:1


On node01 i increased the config version to trigger a reload. It seems to be aware of link1, but wont enable it?

Any idea how to enable that link?
 
no need to, as this is just a display issue - a node will always only use one link as loopback to itself. the displayed output will improve with the next corosync version hopefully, to avoid this confusion.

they are already up and configured now :) I'd still avoid ifdown testing until you got the following versions running:
Code: 
corosync: 3.0.3-pve1
libknet1: 1.14-pve1
 
okay, thank you.

i even added a 3rd ring now:
