Re: Nova Pacemaker Resource Agents

 

Hi,

Managing a resource via LSB only checks the PID. If the PID exists the
service is running but it's not enough because it doesn't mean that the
service is truly functionnal. However OCF agents offer more features like
fine monitoring (scripting).
I'm not sure to understand your question about Rabbit-MQ but if the
question was: "How do you monitor the connection of each service to
Rabbit-MQ?", here is the answer:

The RA monitors the connection state (ESTABLISHED) between the service
(nova-scheduler, nova-cert, nova-consoleauth) and rabbit-MQ according to
the PID of the process.

By the way, did you start with the floating IP OCF agent?

Cheers.
