|

The ``phc2sys`` application can be configured to accept multiple source clock
|
||||
inputs. The quality of these sources are compared to user-defined priority
|
||||
values and the best available source is selected to set the system time.
|
||||
|
||||
The quality of the configured sources is continuously monitored by ``phc2sys``
|
||||
application and will select a new best source if the current source degrades
|
||||
or if another source becomes higher quality.
|
||||
|
||||
The following section describes how to configure ``phc2sys`` with multiple clock
|
||||
sources, and manage and monitor the ``phc2sys`` application.

|HA| Phc2sys Configuration Parameters
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
The parameters listed here can be used in combination with the default
|
||||
``phc2sys`` parameters. Use the ``phc2sys`` help page for additional
|
||||
parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Global Instance Parameters
|
||||
**************************
|
||||
|
||||
``ha_enabled``
|
||||
The ``ha_enabled`` is a global setting to enable or disable the |HA| multiple
|
||||
``ptp4l`` inputs support. The default is 0 (disabled). Set 1 to enable |HA|
|
||||
multiple input support.
|
||||
|
||||
``ha_stability_timer``
|
||||
The ``ha_stability_timer`` option is a global setting used to configure the
|
||||
stability timer. The value is expressed in seconds, and the value 0 disables
|
||||
the timer. The default value is 0 (disabled).
|
||||
|
||||
When the timer is enabled, ``phc2sys`` waits a few seconds after a source
|
||||
becomes a candidate for selection before allowing it to be selected as the
|
||||
synchronization source. This can be useful to prevent frequent source switching
|
||||
if a given source is frequently changing quality. A value of 300 would cause
|
||||
``phc2sys`` to ensure that a source has had stable quality for 300 seconds
|
||||
before it is eligible to be used as a synchronization source.
|
||||
|
||||
The stability timer only applies to sources that were in a degraded state
|
||||
and have recovered to meet the selection threshold. If the active source
|
||||
degrades and ``phc2sys`` determines that a new source must be selected, this
|
||||
happens without delay.
|
||||
|
||||
The ``ha_stability_timer`` is important when the clock has different priorities
|
||||
(ha_priority) to prevent multiple and consecutive clock switches. When the
|
||||
service starts with both clocks in a valid state, the higher priority source
|
||||
is selected, and when it degrades the lower priority is selected quickly. Then
|
||||
when the higher priority recovers it will only become active after the
|
||||
stability timer expires.
|
||||
|
||||
``ha_phc2sys_com_socket``
|
||||
Provides a path for the communication socket used for monitoring and
|
||||
maintenance activities. This value is required for system alarming to check
|
||||
the ``phc2sys`` state. It is recommended to create the socket in the ``/var/run``
|
||||
directory, for example, ``ha_phc2sys_com_socket=/var/run/<phc2sys instance name>``
|
||||
See :ref: ``manage-phc2sys`` for managing interaction with ``phc2sys`` via this
|
||||
socket.
|
||||
|
||||
Source Selection Parameters
|
||||
***************************
|
||||
|
||||
The parameters in this section are applied at the instance level. For example,
|
||||
``system ptp-instance-parameter-add <phc2sys instance name> ha_max_gm_clockClass=7``.
|
||||
|
||||
These parameters set the threshold for a source to be considered eligible for
|
||||
use in setting the system time. A source that does not meet one or more of the
|
||||
requirements will not be selected. ``Phc2sys`` then selects the best available
|
||||
source that meets the threshold. The interface parameter ``ha_priority`` is
|
||||
used as a tiebreaker for sources of equal quality, with the higher priority
|
||||
being selected.
|
||||
|
||||
The default value for each parameter is in effect even if the parameter is not
|
||||
explicitly defined in the configuration file.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
In most cases, users may use the "|GM| clock values" set of parameters to
|
||||
configure the selection threshold. The local clock values are available for
|
||||
additional fine tuning if required, but are generally not a good indicator
|
||||
of the quality of a clock source compared to the |GM| values.
|
||||
|
||||

|

Interface Parameters
|
||||
********************
|
||||
|
||||
``ha_uds_address``
|
||||
The ``ha_uds_address`` is a **required** parameter for each source configured
|
||||
in ``phc2sys``. This provides a path to the associated ``ptp4l`` instance on
|
||||
that source which allows ``phc2sys`` to determine the quality of the source.
|
||||
|
||||
This value should match the ``uds_address`` parameter of the associated ``ptp4l``
|
||||
instance. For example, ``ha_uds_address=/var/run/ptp4l-ptp1``.
|
||||
|
||||
``ha_priority``
|
||||
The ``ha_priority`` option is an interface setting used to configure the clock
|
||||
priority. The lowest priority is 0, highest is 254, and the default value is 0.
|
||||
|
||||
If all clock quality parameters are equal between multiple sources, then the
|
||||
highest priority source is selected.
|
||||
|
||||
If multiple sources have the same clock quality and the same priority, then
|
||||
``phc2sys`` will select the first interface in the configuration file.
|
||||
|
||||
An interface configured with ``ha_priority`` 254 will force ``phc2sys`` to
|
||||
select that source, regardless of its status.
|
||||
|
||||
If more then one interface is configured with ``ha_priority`` 254 the first
|
||||
interface in the configuration file with priority 254 is selected as clock
|
||||
source.
|
||||
|
||||
``ha_domainNumber``
|
||||
The ``ha_domainNumber`` option is an interface setting to configure the domain
|
||||
number for a |UDS| socket. It ranges from 0 to 127. The ``ha_domainNumber``
|
||||
has no default value, if the ``ha_domainNumber`` is not configured for a given
|
||||
interface, the global ``domainNumber`` setting is used.
|
||||
|
||||
This allows for configurations where multiple ``ptp4l`` instances providing
|
||||
clock source quality information may be in different domains.
|
||||
|
||||
If all ``ptp4l`` instances on the system are in the same domain, it is
|
||||
recommended to use the domainNumber parameter in the global section.
|
||||
|
||||

||||
|

Manage Phc2sys
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
|
||||
The ``ha_phc2sys_com_socket`` displays information about the state of the
|
||||
source selection algorithm, as well as performs test and troubleshooting
|
||||
operations.
|
||||
|
||||
To perform these operations, locate the socket file for the ``phc2sys`` instance.
|
||||
This should be configured in the global instance parameters for the
|
||||
``phc2sys`` instance. For example, ``/var/run/<instance name>``.
|
||||
|
||||
These commands must be run on the specific host being managed, as access to the
|
||||
socket file is required. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: none
|
||||
|
||||
[sysadmin@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ echo -n "<command>" | socat -t 1 - UNIX-CONNECT:<ha_phc2sys_com_socket>
|
||||
|
||||
Informational Commands
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
``status``
|
||||
The ``status`` command prints a list of configured sources along with the
|
||||
quality characteristics that have been read from the associated ``ptp4l``
|
||||
instances.
|
||||
|
||||
The ``status`` command also indicates which source has been selected.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: none
|
||||
|
||||
[sysadmin@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ echo -n "status" | socat -t 1 - UNIX-CONNECT:/var/run/phc0
|
||||
|
||||
act interface priority clockClass clockAcc offset time freq gm.clockClass gm.clockAcc gm.offset
|
||||
|
||||
* enp138s0f0 100 248 0xfe 0xffff yes yes 6 0x20 0x4e5d
|
||||
enp81s0f1 100 248 0xfe 0xffff yes yes 6 0x20 0x4e5d
|
||||
|
||||
``forced lock``
|
||||
The ``forced lock`` command prints "False" if ``phc2sys`` has not been forced to
|
||||
select a specific interface via a management operation. It prints "True" if
|
||||
a force lock has been set via a management operation.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: none
|
||||
|
||||
[sysadmin@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ echo -n "forced lock" | socat -t 1 - UNIX-CONNECT:<ha_phc2sys_com_socket>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
``valid sources``
|
||||
The ``valid sources`` command prints the interfaces that meet the quality
|
||||
threshold for selection. If none of the configured interfaces meet the
|
||||
quality threshold then the string "None" is printed.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: none
|
||||
|
||||
[sysadmin@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ echo -n "valid sources" | socat -t 1 - UNIX-CONNECT:<ha_phc2sys_com_socket>
|
||||
|
||||
``clock source``
|
||||
The ``clock source`` command returns the current source that is selected by
|
||||
``phc2sys``.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: none
|
||||
|
||||
[sysadmin@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ echo -n "clock source" | socat -t 1 - UNIX-CONNECT:<ha_phc2sys_com_socket>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Management Operations
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
``enable lock``
|
||||
The ``enable lock <interface>`` command forces ``phc2sys`` to use the given
|
||||
interface as the time source. This operation can be helpful for debugging
|
||||
operations that require the clock source to stay fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
``phc2sys`` can also be forced to select an interface by configuring it
|
||||
with ``ha_priority=254`` which is preferred if the lock needs to
|
||||
persist between reboots and restarts of the ``phc2sys`` service.
|
||||
|
||||
``Phc2sys`` can only be locked to a single interface at a time.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: none
|
||||
|
||||
[sysadmin@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ echo -n "enable lock enp81s0f0" | socat -t 1 - UNIX-CONNECT:<ha_phc2sys_com_socket>
|
||||
|
||||
``disable lock``
|
||||
The ``disable lock`` command returns ``phc2sys`` to normal operations where
|
||||
it selects the best quality clock source based on the configured thresholds.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: none
|
||||
|
||||
[sysadmin@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ echo -n "disable lock" | socat -t 1 - UNIX-CONNECT:<ha_phc2sys_com_socket>
|
||||
|
||||
``disable source <interface>``
|
||||
The ``disable source <interface>`` command removes a given interface from the
|
||||
list of sources considered by ``phc2sys`` for selection. This can be used for
|
||||
troubleshooting and testing by allowing sources to be removed and re-enabled
|
||||
without restarting the ``phc2sys`` service.
|
||||
|
||||
``Phc2sys`` will not allow a source to be disabled if it is the only source
|
||||
currently configured and enabled.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: none
|
||||
|
||||
[sysadmin@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ echo -n "disable source enp81s0f0" | socat -t 1 - UNIX-CONNECT:<ha_phc2sys_com_socket>
|
||||
|
||||
``enable source <interface>``
|
||||
The ``enable source <interface>`` command returns a previously disabled
|
||||
interface to the selection pool, allowing ``phc2sys`` to consider it for
|
||||
selection based on its quality.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: none
|
||||

||||
New alarms have been added to report the state of |HA| ``Phc2sys``. To view
|
||||
system alarms on |prod|, use the :command:`fm alarm-list` command.
|
||||
|
||||
**Phc2sys HA has no source clock**
|
||||
|
||||
Example EID:
|
||||
``host=controller-0.phc2sys=phc0.phc2sys=no-source-clock``
|
||||
|
||||
The "no source clock" alarm is raised when ``phc2sys`` does not have any sources
|
||||
that meet the specified threshold in the user configuration. This is due to the
|
||||
quality of the available sources not meeting specified thresholds. The alarm
|
||||
clears when an available source meets the specified quality requirements.
|
||||
|
||||
The ``ha_phc2sys_com_socket`` "status" and "valid sources" commands can be used
|
||||
to assist with troubleshooting this alarm.
|
||||
|
||||
**phc2sys HA source clock is not locked to a PRC**
|
||||
|
||||
Example EID:
|
||||
``host=controller-0.phc2sys=ptp01.interface=enp81s0f1.phc2sys=source-clock-no-prc-lock``
|
||||
|
||||
The "source clock is not locked to a PRC" alarm is raised when one of the |HA|
|
||||
``phc2sys`` interfaces is indicating a clockClass that is of lesser quality than
|
||||
the specified maximum clockClass in the user config. The alarm indicates which
|
||||
interface is degraded. The presence of this alarm should coincide with ``phc2sys``
|
||||
selecting a different source if a better one is available. The alarm will clear
|
||||
when the clockClass for the source meets the selection threshold.
|
||||
|
||||
The ``ha_phc2sys_com_socket`` "status" and "valid sources" commands can be used to
|
||||
assist with troubleshooting this alarm.
|
||||
|
||||
**phc2sys HA has selected a lower priority clock source**
|
||||
|
||||
Example EID:
|
||||
``host=controller-0.phc2sys=phc1. phc2sys=source-clock-low-priority``
|
||||
|
||||
The "selected lower priority clock source" alarm is raised when ``phc2sys`` is
|
||||
configured with multiple sources and the selected one that is not the highest
|
||||
priority. This alarm indicates that there is degraded quality for the highest
|
||||
priority source and that ``phc2sys`` has taken action to switch. The alarm will be
|
||||
cleared when the highest priority source becomes available for selection.
|
||||
|
||||
**phc2sys HA automatic source selection has been disabled**
|
||||
|
||||
Example EID:
|
||||
``host=controller-0.phc2sys=phc0.phc2sys=forced-clock-selection``
|
||||
|
||||
The "automatic source selection disabled" alarm is raised when an operator has
|
||||
used the ``ha_phc2sys_com_socket`` :command:`enable lock <interface>`command
|
||||
to force ``phc2sys`` to use a specific source. This alarm is informational and
|
||||
can be cleared by running the :command:`disable lock` command via the
|
||||
``ha_phc2sys_com_socket``.
|
||||
|
||||
**phc2sys HA source selection algorithm selected new active source**
|
||||
|
||||
Example EID:
|
||||
``host=controller-0.phc2sys=ptp02.interface=enp138s0f0.phc2sys=source-failover``
|
||||
|
||||
The "selected new active source" event is raised when ``phc2sys`` switches between
|
||||
sources for any reason. This is not raised as a persistent alarm, but rather
|
||||
as an event, viewable via :command:`fm event-list`. This event enables users to
|
||||
see when source selection events have occurred. There is no action required to
|
||||
clear this event.
|
||||
|
||||
Phc2sys Source Selection Behaviour
|
||||
----------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
When ``phc2sys`` is configured with multiple sources and "ha_enabled", a selection
|
||||
algorithm runs repeatedly to determine which source to sync the system time to.
|
||||
The source selection algorithm operates by determining a list of valid sources
|
||||
(i.e. sources that meet the configured selection requirements), and then
|
||||
choosing the source from that list with the highest priority.
|
||||
|
||||
When ``phc2sys`` detects that a source's quality has changed, the list is
|
||||
re-calculated and a new source is selected if a better one has become available.
|
||||
|
||||
The source selection operates in the following way:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: none
|
||||
|
||||
For each configured clock source:
|
||||
if local.clockClass > ha_max_local_clockClass -> disqualify source
|
||||
if local.clockAccuracy > ha_max_local_clockAccuracy -> disqualify source
|
||||
if local.offsetScaledLogVariance > ha_max_gm_offsetScaledLogVar -> disqualify source
|
||||
if source.timeTraceable = 0 AND ha_gm_timeTraceable = 1 -> disqualify source
|
||||
if source.frequencyTraceable = 0 and ha_gm_frequencyTraceable = 1 -> disqualify source
|
||||
if gm.clockClass > ha_max_gm_clockClass -> disqualify source
|
||||
if gm.clockAccuracy > ha_max_gm_clockAccuracy -> disqualify source
|
||||
if gm.offsetScaledLogVariance > ha_max_gm_offsetScaledLogVar -> disqualify source
|
||||
|
||||
From list of qualified sources, select the source with highest "ha_priority". If
|
||||
qualified sources have the same "ha_priority", select the first one as it
|
||||
appears in the ``phc2sys`` config file.
|
||||
|
||||
If there is no valid source, select the source with lowest "local.clockClass".
|
||||
If "local.clockClass" is tied, select the first source in ``phc2sys`` config file
|
||||
from among the tied sources.
