Galera cluster recovery
=======================
Run the `` ``galera-bootstrap`` playbook to automatically recover
a node or an entire environment. Run the ``galera install`` playbook`
using the ``galera-bootstrap`` tag to auto recover a node or an
entire environment.
#. Run the following Ansible command to show the failed nodes:
.. code-block:: shell-session
# openstack-ansible galera-install.yml --tags galera-bootstrap
The cluster comes back online after completion of this command.
Single-node failure
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If a single node fails, the other nodes maintain quorum and
continue to process SQL requests.
#. Run the following Ansible command to determine the failed node:
.. code-block:: shell-session
# ansible galera_container -m shell -a "mysql -h localhost \
-e 'show status like \"%wsrep_cluster_%\";'"

In this example, node 3 has failed.
#. Restart MariaDB on the failed node and verify that it rejoins the
cluster.
#. If MariaDB fails to start, run the ``mysqld`` command and perform
further analysis on the output. As a last resort, rebuild the container
for the node.
Multi-node failure
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When all but one node fails, the remaining node cannot achieve quorum and
stops processing SQL requests. In this situation, failed nodes that
recover cannot join the cluster because it no longer exists.
#. Run the following Ansible command to show the failed nodes:
.. code-block:: shell-session
# ansible galera_container -m shell -a "mysql \
-h localhost -e 'show status like \"%wsrep_cluster_%\";'"

In this example, nodes 2 and 3 have failed. The remaining operational
server indicates ``non-Primary`` because it cannot achieve quorum.
#. Run the following command to
`rebootstrap `_
the operational node into the cluster:
.. code-block:: shell-session

Complete failure
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Restore from backup if all of the nodes in a Galera cluster fail (do not
shutdown gracefully). Run the following command to determine if all nodes in
the cluster have failed:
.. code-block:: shell-session
# ansible galera_container -m shell -a "cat /var/lib/mysql/grastate.dat"
node3_galera_container-3ea2cbd3 | success | rc=0 >>
# GALERA saved state

uuid: 338b06b0-2948-11e4-9d06-bef42f6c52f1
seqno: -1

cert_index:
All the nodes have failed if ``mysqld`` is not running on any of the
nodes and all of the nodes contain a ``seqno`` value of -1.
If any single node has a positive ``seqno`` value, then that node can be
used to restart the cluster. However, because there is no guarantee that
each node has an identical copy of the data, we do not recommend to
restart the cluster using the ``--wsrep-new-cluster`` command on one
node.
Rebuilding a container
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Recovering from certain failures require rebuilding one or more containers.
#. Disable the failed node on the load balancer.
.. note::
Do not rely on the load balancer health checks to disable the node.
If the node is not disabled, the load balancer sends SQL requests
to it before it rejoins the cluster and cause data inconsistencies.
#. Destroy the container and remove MariaDB data stored outside
of the container:
.. code-block:: shell-session
# lxc-stop -n node3_galera_container-3ea2cbd3
# lxc-destroy -n node3_galera_container-3ea2cbd3
# rm -rf /openstack/node3_galera_container-3ea2cbd3/*
In this example, node 3 failed.
#. Run the host setup playbook to rebuild the container on node 3:
.. code-block:: shell-session
# openstack-ansible setup-hosts.yml -l node3 \
-l node3_galera_container-3ea2cbd3
The playbook restarts all other containers on the node.
#. Run the infrastructure playbook to configure the container
specifically on node 3:
.. code-block:: shell-session
# openstack-ansible setup-infrastructure.yml \
-l node3_galera_container-3ea2cbd3
.. warning::
The new container runs a single-node Galera cluster, which is a dangerous
state because the environment contains more than one active database
with potentially different data.
.. code-block:: shell-session
# ansible galera_container -m shell -a "mysql \
-h localhost -e 'show status like \"%wsrep_cluster_%\";'"

#. Restart MariaDB in the new container and verify that it rejoins the
cluster.
.. note::
In larger deployments, it may take some time for the MariaDB daemon to
start in the new container. It will be synchronizing data from the other
MariaDB servers during this time. You can monitor the status during this
process by tailing the ``/var/log/mysql_logs/galera_server_error.log``
log file.
Lines starting with ``WSREP_SST`` will appear during the sync process
and you should see a line with ``WSREP: SST complete, seqno: ``
if the sync was successful.
