Determining Active and Standby Management Nodes

Scenario

Some O&M operation scripts and commands need to be run or can be run only on the active management node. You can log in to a Master node or the Manager (MRS 3.x or later) to determine the active and standby management nodes (active and standby OMS nodes).

In active/standby mode, a switchover can be implemented between Master1 and Master2. For this reason, Master1 may not be the active management node for Manager.

Runing the Script to Determine Active and Standby Nodes

1. Find the Master nodes of an MRS cluster.
   1. Log in to the MRS console, choose Clusters > Active Clusters and click the name of the target cluster to access its details page.
   2. On the Nodes tab page, view Master node names. The node that contains master1 in its name is the Master1 node. The node that contains master2 in its name is the Master2 node.

2. Determine the active and standby management nodes of the Manager.
   1. Remotely log in to the Master1 node. For details, see Logging In to an ECS.

      Master nodes support Cloud-Init. The preset username for Cloud-Init is root and the password is the one you set during cluster creation.

   2. Run the following commands to switch the user:

      sudo su - root

      su - omm

   3. Run the following command to identify the active and standby management nodes:

      For versions earlier than MRS 3.x, run the sh ${BIGDATA_HOME}/om-0.0.1/sbin/status-oms.sh command.

      For MRS 3.x or later: Run the sh ${BIGDATA_HOME}/om-server/om/sbin/status-oms.sh command.

      In the command output, the node whose HAActive is active is the active management node (mgtomsdat-sh-3-01-1 in the following example), and the node whose HAActive is standby is the standby management node (mgtomsdat-sh-3-01-2 in the following example).

      Ha mode

      NodeName              HostName                      HAVersion          StartTime                HAActive             HAAllResOK           HARunPhase 
      192-168-0-30          mgtomsdat-sh-3-01-1           V100R001C01        20xx-11-18 23:43:02      active               normal               Actived    
      192-168-0-24          mgtomsdat-sh-3-01-2           V100R001C01        20xx-11-21 07:14:02      standby              normal               Deactived

      

      If the Master1 node to which you have logged in is the standby management node and you need to log in to the active management node, run the following command:

      ssh IP address of Master2 node

Logging in to Manager to Determine Active and Standby Nodes

This section applies only to MRS 3.x or later.

1. Log in to Manager. For details, see Accessing Manager.
2. Click Hosts. The Hosts page is displayed.
3. View and record the IP addresses of the active and standby management nodes.
   

   • If a host name starts with , it is the active management node (active OMS node). View and record the value of Management IP Address in the row containing the active node.
   • If a host name starts with , the host is a standby management node (standby OMS node). View and record the value of Management IP Address in the row containing the standby node.
