Pacemaker Command Quick Reference

Version 0.9, 2020-05-20
Pacemaker Command Quick Reference: 1. Overview of the Cluster

This quick reference includes the most commonly used shell commands for administrating a Pacemaker cluster.
Commands for crmsh and pcs can be used interchangeably.

1. Overview of the Cluster


For an overview of the cluster and cluster managed services, use the following command:

# crm_mon -1r

For a continuously updated view of the cluster and cluster managed services, omit the -1 option:

# crm_mon -r

2. Managing Cluster Resources


Stopping a resource managed by the cluster:

# crm resource stop <resource>


  -- or --
# pcs resource disable <resource>

Starting a resource managed by the cluster:

# crm resource start <resource>


  -- or --
# pcs resource enable <resource>

Migrating (moving) cluster resources to a specific node:

# crm resource move <resource> <target-node>


  -- or --
# pcs resource move <resource> <target-node>

Resources can also be moved away from, or kept off of, a specific node:

# crm resource ban <resource> <banned-node>


  -- or --
# pcs resource ban <resource> <banned-node>

Moving/banning resources places a location constraint in the cluster configuration. You must
 remember to remove the constraint using the appropriate unmove / clear command after the
resource has moved.

To remove the migration constraint from the cluster after the service has been migrated:

Pacemaker Command Quick Reference: 3. Managing Cluster Nodes

# crm resource unmove <resource>


  -- or --
# pcs resource clear <resource>

Creating a new cluster resource:

# crm configure primitive <resource> <resource-agent> \


  params <resource-parameter>=<parameter-value \
  op <op-name> interval=<op-interval>s timeout=<op-timeout>s
  -- or --
# pcs resource create <resource> <resource-agent> \
  <resource-parameter>=<parameter-value> \
  op <op-name> interval=<op-interval>s timeout=<op-timeout>s

Removing a cluster resource:

# crm configure delete <resource>


  -- or --
# pcs resource delete <resource>


When deleting a resource using crmsh, you must first stop the resource. crmsh will not delete a
resource while it’s running. Conversely, pcs will stop a running resource if you delete it.

3. Managing Cluster Nodes


To put a cluster node into standby mode, therefore marking it ineligible for running cluster resources:

# crm node standby <node>


  -- or --
# pcs node standby <node>

To return a cluster node to online mode, therefore marking it eligible for running cluster resources:

# crm node online <node>


  -- or --
# pcs node unstandby <node>

To put the entire Pacemaker cluster into maintenance mode:

# crm configure property maintenance-mode=true


  -- or --
# pcs property set maintenance-mode=true

Returning the cluster to normal operations after putting it into maintenance mode:

Pacemaker Command Quick Reference: 4. Cleanup Resource Failures

# crm configure property maintenance-mode=false


  -- or --
# pcs property set maintenance-mode=true=false

4. Cleanup Resource Failures


To reset a cluster resource’s failcount, therefore triggering the cluster to reprobe the resource and attempt a resource
recovery:

# crm resource cleanup <resource>


  -- or --
# pcs resource cleanup <resource>

5. Using Shell Documentation


To get help for specific cluster sub-shells:

# crm <subshell> help


  -- or --
# pcs <subshell> help

For a full list of sub-shells or general help, simply:

# crm help
  -- or --
# pcs help

6. Resource Agent Documentation


For a list of all currently installed Pacemaker resource agents:

# crm ra list <class>


  -- or --
# pcs resource agents <class>
# pcs resource agents

 valid class options at the time of writing are: ocf, lsb, service, and systemd

To see documentation for a specific Pacemaker resource agent, including a full list of it’s parameters and default
operation settings:

# crm ra info <resource-agent>


  -- or --
# pcs resource describe <resource-agent>

Pacemaker Command Quick Reference: 7. Editing the Cluster Configuration

7. Editing the Cluster Configuration


To edit the cluster configuration as a whole using crmsh:

# crm
crm(live/node)# cib new staged-cib
crm(staged-cib/node)# configure edit
-- opens an editor --
-- write and quit to save changes --
crm(staged-cib/node)# cib commit staged-cib
crm(staged-cib/node)# quit

To edit the cluster configuration as a whole using pcs:

# pcs cluster cib staged-cib


# vim staged-cib
-- opens cib in VIM --
-- write and quit to save changes --
# pcs cluster cib-push staged-cib

In both examples the name, staged-cib, was used but could be anything. In the crmsh example,
 whatever name is used will be shown in the prompt to inform the user they are no longer
performing actions on the live configuration.
