Power. HA System. Mirror 7. 1 for AIX – Key differences ■ Integration with Cluster Aware AIX ■ Heartbeat mechanism ■ Cluster Repository Disk ■ Cluster Command Line, clmgr ■ Systems Director Management Interface Let’s take a closer look at these differences… 10 © 2011 IBM Corporation

Deprecated features in v 7. 1 All non-IP network types – RS-232, diskhb, mndhb, TMSSA, TMSCSI IP Network types ATM, FDDI, Token Ring Non-ECVGs Hostname changes IPAT via replacement – HWAT Heartbeat over Aliasing Two-Node configuration assistant Web. SMIT – Online planning worksheets – Cluster configuration html report Additional Limitations – Site Support – Cross-site LVM mirroring – IPV 6 support – 16 -node tested cluster restriction as per the README 7. 1. 0. UPDATE 11 © 2011 IBM Corporation

Cluster Aware AIX AIX-Level Cluster – AIX functionality not Power. HA Provides cluster framework, heartbeating, disk fencing but no failover Available in AIX 6. 1 TL 6 and AIX 7. 1 - bos. cluster. * Power. HA 7. 1 hands over heartbeating (previously topology services) to CAA Cluster definition – on CAA Repository Disk Power. HA Cluster definition – in Power. HA ODM Different commands to query AIX and Power. HA cluster CAA Storage Framework replaces Power. HA non-IP network Also used by – VIOS SSP – DB 2 Pure. Scale 12 © 2011 IBM Corporation

Existing – without CAA © 2011 IBM Corporation

With CAA grpsvcs daemon now called cthags Topology services no longer used © 2011

Cluster Aware AIX - differences ■ ■ ■ 15 Repository disk – Minimum recommended size 10 GB – Does not store Power. HA cluster configuration – Requires 4 GB or 8 GB FC adapters – Documented procedure for changing repository disk – recommended to avoid by proper planning – Must be highly available / SAN RAIDed / Multipathed – 7. 1 does NOT support 3 rd party Multipath eg. Power. Path but 7. 1. 1 (Dec 11) adds support for EMC Power. Path and Hitachi HDLM Sites – Does not support sites Hostname – CAA requires hostname and nodename must be the same © 2011 IBM Corporation

Cluster Aware AIX – differences continued ■ 7. 1 Requires specific vg and lv naming to be available # lsvg -l caavg_private: LV NAME TYPE LPs PVs LV STATE MOUNT POINT caalv_private 1 boot 1 1 1 closed/ syncd N/A caalv_private 2 boot 1 1 1 closed/ syncd N/A caalv_private 3 boot 4 4 1 open/syncd N/A fslv 00 jfs 2 4 4 1 open/syncd /clrepos_private 1 fslv 01 jfs 2 4 4 1 closed/syncd /clrepos_private 2 powerha_crlv boot 1 1 1 closed/syncd N/A ■ 7. 1. 1 does NOT require specific vg and lv naming to be available as we no longer have repository disk filesystems # lsvg -l caavg_private: LV NAME TYPE LPs PVs LV STATE MOUNT POINT caalv_private 1 boot 1 1 1 closed/ syncd N/A caalv_private 2 boot 1 1 1 closed/ syncd N/A caalv_private 3 boot 4 4 1 open/ syncd N/A powerha_crlv boot 1 1 1 closed/ syncd N/A 16 © 2011 IBM Corporation

Cluster Aware AIX – differences continued ■ v. SCSI support issues for repository disk – – ■ 6. 1. 6/7. 1 does not check disk type 6. 1. 6 SP 1 checks and will not allow v. SCSI 6. 1. 6 SP 2 checks and verifies v. SCSI device is indeed SAN based NPIV / Fibre OK Uses multicast for monitoring – Requires infrastructure to allow forwarding multicast packets – Uses SRM (Scalable Reliable Multicast) – Can test using mping AIX command ■ Heartbeat rates are not tunable – No failure detection rate settings (FDR) – Completely different to heartbeat over IP used in previous versions ■ Uses internal algorithm to determine health – Does consider things like network/system load 17 © 2011 IBM Corporation

“Monitoring” in CAA Now in kernel space not user space – Higher priority, allows for messages to be sent from node experiencing extreme resource contention - no DMS SAN-based communication interface (SFWCOM) – Replaces disk heartbeat – Uses target mode on HBA – Also requires creation of VLAN 3358 to create sfwcom. X device documentation APAR IV 03643 (google finds it) CAA Repository Disk also used for monitoring, only if all else fails Monitoring is more advanced – many more stats – Self-adjusting algorithms take into account load and network conditions – Cannot adjust Failure Detection Rate Can see all of this in lscluster command 18 © 2011 IBM Corporation

User Defined Resources Presently, A user can introduce a new resource type by creating a Application Server. – Power. HA requires a start/stop/monitor for that resource This approach is not flexible for end users What’s new in the 7. 1 release – User develops “bundle” which includes attributes/verifications/order for Power. HA etc. – Framework accepts Methods to verify/start/stop/monitor/cleanup/restart the user defined resource – A xml file can be supplied as input which will be having definition for the user defined resource type – Power. HA allows to create instances of the user defined resource type and these instances can be added into RG as resources. 21 VOLUME GROUP Acquisition Order – Volume Groups will be handled first – Application Servers will be handled last. Release Order DISK However, Power. HA follows a strict pre-known order to handles the resources. FILE SYSTEM User Defined Resource SERVICE IP APPLICATION © 2011 IBM Corporation

New Dependencies ■ Previously, Power. HA supports only parent-child dependency among Resource Groups. – Child RG starts after all of its parents start – Child RG stops before its parents stop ■ Not sufficient to support complex applications like SAP/File. Net – File. Net App Server requires to be started only after database, but no need to be stopped if the DB is down for sometime ■ What’s new – Two new dependencies introduced in Power. HA 7. 1 • • STARTAFTER STOPAFTER – Affects how RG started or stopped (New) – Simplified UI for managing these relations in both SMIT and Director 22 © 2011 IBM Corporation

Dynamic Node Priority new Adaptive Fallover ■ Present Power. HA support static/dynamic failover policies – Static: New failover node will be the next node from the node participation list – Dynamic Node Priority : allows the failover node to be having certain degree of free CPU/memory/IO activity ■ This is not sufficient in some specific cases like SAP Enqueue replication, where RG for Enqueue server need to failover where Enqueue Replication is running. What’s new in 7. 1 – Introducing a new dynamic failover policy where, it asks user to supply a script which can dictate the failover behavior. • The supplied script will be executed on all nodes by Power. HA to know whether the given node can be used as host for failing over RG • Since it is a script, no of checks can be performed by user to let Power. HA know whether the node can be used as a host on a dynamic basis. The DNP feature is enhanced to support two more policies. The return code of a user-defined script is used in determining the destination node: – cl_lowest_nonzero_udscript_rc – cl_highest_udscript_rc 23 © 2011 IBM Corporation

Rootvg System Event ■ New kernel level monitoring ■ Monitors the loss of rootvg ■ ■ Defaults response is to log event and reboot causing fallover to occur Smitty sysmirror->Custom Cluster Configuration->Events->System Events Change/Show Event Response Type or select values in entry fields. Press Enter AFTER making all desired changes. [Entry Fields] 24 * Event Name ROOTVG + * Response Log event and reboot + * Active Yes + © 2011 IBM Corporation

Clmgr – cluster command line ■ Much asked-for feature ■ Very complete, verbose, documented ■ All output logged automatically in clutils. log ■ -l flag does trace logging various levels ■ Can shorten keywords to aliases ■ Can do (almost) everything possible in smitty ■ Can save a huge amount of time in build, config, PD of clusters ■ Used by Systems Director plugin ■ Replaces previous clvt 25 © 2011 IBM Corporation

Clmgr – cluster command line ■ Supported actions Supported object classes • cluster • file_collection – add • site • fallback_timer – delete • node – manage • interface • volume_group (incomplete coverage) • logical_volume (incomplete coverage) – modify • network – move • resource_group – offline • service_ip • physical_volume (incomplete coverage) – online • persistent_ip • method (incomplete coverage) – query • application_controller • report – recover • application_monitor • snapshot – sync • dependency • tape • file_system (incomplete coverage) – view 26 © 2011 IBM Corporation

Clcmd – cluster distributed commands ■ /usr/sbin/clcmd ■ Provided by CAA ■ Distributes command to all cluster nodes – Ease of use – Reminiscent of dsh from SP 2 days ■ Example – clcmd cat /etc/cluster/rhosts NODE jessica. dfw. ibm. com ---------------jessica jordan ---------------NODE jordan. dfw. ibm. com ---------------jessica jordan 27 © 2011 IBM Corporation
