## PCS - Pacemaker/Corosync Configuration System



Pcs is a Corosync and Pacemaker configuration tool. It permits users to easily

view, modify and create Pacemaker based clusters. Pcs contains pcsd, a pcs

daemon, which operates as a remote server for pcs.



---



### Pcs Versions



There are three pcs branches:

* main

  * This is where pcs-0.11 lives.

  * Clusters running Pacemaker 2.1+ on top of Corosync 3.x are supported.

  * The main development happens here.

* pcs-0.10

  * Clusters running Pacemaker 2.0 on top of Corosync 3.x are supported.

  * Pacemaker 2.1 is supported, if it is compiled with `--enable-compat-2.0`

    option.

  * This branch is in maintenance mode - bugs are being fixed but only a subset

    of new features lands here.

* pcs-0.9

  * Clusters running Pacemaker 1.x on top of Corosync 2.x or Corosync 1.x with

    CMAN are supported.

  * This branch is in no longer maintained.

### Installation from Source



Apart from the dependencies listed above, these are also required for

installation:



* python development files (packages python3-devel, python3-setuptools,

  python3-setuptools\_scm, python3-wheel)

* ruby development files (package ruby-devel)

* rubygems

* rubygem bundler (package rubygem-bundler or ruby-bundler or bundler)

* autoconf, automake

* gcc

* gcc-c++

* FFI development files (package libffi-devel or libffi-dev)

* printf (package coreutils)

* redhat-rpm-config (if you are using Fedora)

* wget (to download bundled libraries)



During the installation, all required rubygems are automatically downloaded and

compiled.



To install pcs and pcsd run the following in terminal:

```shell

./autogen.sh

./configure

# alternatively './configure --enable-local-build' can be used to also download

# missing dependencies

make

make install

```



If you are using GNU/Linux with systemd, it is now time to:

```shell

systemctl daemon-reload

```



Start pcsd and make it start on boot:

```shell

systemctl start pcsd

systemctl enable pcsd

```

### Packages



Currently this is built into Fedora, RHEL and its clones and Debian and its

derivates. It is likely that other Linux distributions also contain pcs

packages.

* [Fedora package git repositories](https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/pcs)

* [Current Fedora .spec](https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/pcs/blob/rawhide/f/pcs.spec)

* [Debian-HA project home page](https://wiki.debian.org/Debian-HA)

### Quick Start



* **Authenticate cluster nodes**



  Set the same password for the `hacluster` user on all nodes.

  ```shell

  passwd hacluster

  ```



  To authenticate the nodes, run the following command on one of the nodes

  (replacing node1, node2, node3 with a list of nodes in your future cluster).

  Specify all your cluster nodes in the command. Make sure pcsd is running on

  all nodes.

  ```shell

  pcs host auth node1 node2 node3 -u hacluster

  ```



* **Create a cluster**



  To create a cluster run the following command on one node (replacing

  cluster\_name with a name of your cluster and node1, node2, node3 with a list

  of nodes in the cluster). `--start` and `--enable` will start your cluster

  and configure the nodes to start the cluster on boot respectively.

  ```shell

  pcs cluster setup cluster_name node1 node2 node3 --start --enable

  ```



* **Check the cluster status**



   After a few moments the cluster should startup and you can get the status of

   the cluster.

   ```shell

   pcs status

   ```



* **Add cluster resources**



   After this you can add stonith agents and resources:

   ```shell

   pcs stonith create --help

   ```

   and

   ```shell

   pcs resource create --help

   ```
