Thanks Shaheed for the update on the failover issue..I will go through the
logs and share the observation further..
Thanks,

Re: ***UNCHECKED*** Problem with Stratos 4.1 failover (was RE:
Problems with Stratos 4.1 failover and autohealing)
Posted by Reka Thirunavukkarasu <re...@wso2.com>.
Once you collect the cartridge agent logs together with stratos logs, if
you share it with us, that would be enough for further debugging..
Also, enabling the debug log for
log4j.logger.org.apache.stratos.cartridge.agent=DEBUG in cartridge agent
side might help to identify any issue. Can you share the cartridge agent
logs with this debug log enabled?
Thanks,
Reka

Hi Shaheed,
As i went through the logs(wso2carbon.log and wso2-cep-trace.log) of octl-02-after, identified that there is a possibility for the member fault to occur as cartridge agent didn't publish the events for more than one minute from 00:53:24 to 00:55:09 ([2], [3]) which is obviously more than one minute where the cartridge agent health publishing interval is 15s ([1], [2]). I observed this sequence([1], [2], [3]) in the wso2-cep-trace.log. It has happened intermittently. Please see below for the details. Member fault occur[4] in stratos side at 00:54:34 as the last event from cartridge agent was marked as 00:53:24 [2]. The next event from cartridge agent received at 00:55:09. So, we will need to investigate at the cartridge agent side why it failed sent the health stats intermittently even after everything back to normal as i could see that cartridge agent was publishing health stat after octl-02 came without any issue for nearly two minutes Eg: [1] and [2]
Is it possible for you to get the cartridge agent logs? I know that it is little bit hard as stratos will immediately terminate the instance. But if you could tail the logs, then i believe that you can get the logs from where you tailed.

This thread breaks out the failover issue previously reported in the thread below.
Scenario
1. Start 2 orchestration controllers, octl-01 and octl-02. At this stage, Stratos comes up on octl-01.
2. Shortly later, launch two single VM applications (cisco-sample and cartridge-proxy)
3. Some time later, launch three more single VM applications (di-000-001 to di-000-003)
4. Some time later, kill octl-01
5. Wait
6. About 60 seconds later or so, DNS switched to point Cartridge Agents to octl-02 and then Stratos comes up on octl-02.
Expected result
• New Stratos instance picks up the old cartridges and carries on
Actual results
• The new Startos instance seems to think the old cartridges are dead or something, and spins up new VMs.
• All sorts of exceptions are being thrown.
Supporting info
Two tarballs attached. The “before” set was taken before step 4, the “after” set was taken after step 6. Each contains tarballs for octl-01 and octl-02. Thus, in the first, the wso2logs are at
• tech-support-octl-01.tar, under /var/log/apache-stratos
and in the second, they are at
• tech-support-octl-02.tar, under /var/log/apache-stratos

Subject: Problem with Stratos 4.1 autohealing (was RE: Problems with Stratos 4.1 failover and autohealing)
I met with several of the wso2 team, and we agreed the following next steps:
1. Treat the “Stratos failover” issue as separate from the “duplicate instances” issue, and use a new thread for the former, keeping this thread for the latter.
2. The lack of synchronisation between the cleanup of the faulty VMs and the startup of the replacement VMs was noted.
a. It was mentioned that the period of overlap should be seconds, perhaps upto 60s.
b. I noted that for many of our scenarios, where the hardware is 1:1 mapped to VMs (i.e. neither over-subscribed nor under-subscribed), the overlap may be a problem. I will consult with others and confirm. Imesh ack’d this point.
c. I will provide the wso2 logs for my test case (summarised below).
d. I will check with the test team where the problem was originally detected if this is a transient (upto 60s) or long-lived, and gather logs as needed.

Hi Shaheed,
Regarding Stratos fail-over scenario, by looking at the logs it seems that there are multiple member fault cases detected by CEP. This FaultHandlingWindowProcessor [1] running inside CEP is implemented to check for health stats published by cartridge agents. It does not check whether actual VM or processes running inside the VM is active or not. If it detects that cartridge agent has not published any health event within the given time window (60mins), it will publish the MemberFault event.
Ideally this should not happen regardless of whether the deployment is HA or not. Because FaultHandlingWindowProcessor will count the 60mins interval from the point Stratos server started. Only reason I could think of which may have caused these faulty member logs is Stratos (or external CEP) did not receive health stats published by cartridge agents on time.
Are you running Stratos in single-JVM mode? If so, I'd highly recommend that you deploy the CEP profile separately. Please refer to [2] for reference deployment architecture of Stratos HA setup.
Regarding your second concern; Kill multiple Cartridges, I believe your concern is that the first message relating to recovery of the CPS came 66s after faulty member detection and recovery of other VMs started before that. I'd like to summarize few points regarding Stratos recovery process which I think will explain that behavior.
- Stratos detects faulty members only by checking the health stats published by cartridge agent and not by checking the existence of the actual VM.
- Upon detecting such faulty member, CEP will publish a faulty member event and after receiving such event AS will move that instance to obsolete list. AS will iterate over this obsolete list and try to terminate those instances via CC. When the termination is complete, CC will publish member terminated event, upon receiving that AS will remove that member from obsolete list.
- If CC fails to terminate the instance, it will keep retrying until a obsolete member timeout interval has passed. When the timeout expires, AS will forcefully remove that member from obsolete list.
- Stratos will not try to re-spawn the faulty instance right after detecting it. This recovery process is triggered by the Cluster monitor object. There is a Drools logic which gets executed periodically (monitor interval is configurable, default is 90s) which will execute the min-check rule, scale-up rule and scale-down rule and decide whether to spawn new instances. So this recovery process could take some time depending on your monitor interval.
So in retrospect;
- There is no way to control which cluster monitor gets executed first, so therefore it is possible that CPS recovery takes place after other VMs.
- The reason for seeing lot of termination logs is because Stratos continuously tries to terminate those faulty members until obsolete member timeout has expired. This could occur if the actual VM was killed manually or by other means.
However, we need to figure out why you got these faulty member events. Could you send us the CEP trace log for further analysis? Also you can enable debug logs for FaultHandlingWindowProcessor class to get more insights as to what's going on.
I hope this would explain your concerns. We can have a Hangout session to discuss this further.

Hi,
I am seeing some issues around Stratos 4.1 around failover on the one hand (i.e. stop one running instance of Startos, start another as a replacement), and autohealing (i.e. a Cartridge dies and need to be replaced by Stratos) which feel as though they might have a common cause, so I am lumping them together for now. I’ll explain the two scenarios as I can…and the attach some logs explaining one scenario in detail.
Failover of Stratos
The situation here is that I have 3 servers, all running MySQL in active-active mode, and Stratos running on at most one of them under Pacemaker control. The test case is that I kill the server (actually a VM) running Stratos, and Pacemaker responds by starting Stratos on one of the remaining servers. Around the time of the action, there is no ongoing REST activity in terms of defining new Cartridges, or Applications or anything like that.
• Expected result: the replacement Stratos instance “acquires” the running Cartridges, and the system continues without killing/replacing any Cartridges.
• Actual result: all Cartridges are kill and restarted.
Kill multiple Cartridges
I have a test where several Cartridges are killed at the same time as follows. We have a Cartridge Proxy Server (CPS) that hosts the (Java) Cartridge agent for VMs which cannot run one natively. The CPS therefore runs N+1 JCAs, one for itself plus N for the Cartridges it is proxying. Killing the CPS therefore causes all N+1 JCAs to disappear, and from a Startos point of view, all N+1 VMs need to be restarted.
• Expected result: each Cartridges is replaced by Stratos.
• Actual result: looking at the Stratos logs, it seems that there is a race between the termination logic which cleans up as old cluster members dies against the startup logic which is spinning up replacement VMs for the terminated ones.
Both cases previously seemed to work fine, where we *think* previously means versions of Stratos 4.1 dating back ~3 weeks or so. I attach a series of log extracts for the second scenario; I suspect this also covers the first, even if not, at least we can start here.
1. Original spin up of CPS is at 2015-06-11 19:50:20,585. CPS fault seen around 2015-06-12 18:54:51, contemporaneously, all the other faults are seen:

...
etc
...
2. The last message relating to the CPS failure is at 18:54:52. The first message relating to recovery of the CPS is some 66 seconds later:
TID: [0] [STRATOS] [2015-06-12 18:55:58,516] INFO {org.apache.stratos.autoscaler.rule.RuleLog} - [min-check] Partition available, hence trying to spawn an instance to fulfil minimum count! [cluster] cartridge-proxy.cartridge-proxy.cartridge-proxy.domain
3. However, recovery of other VMs started as much as 54 seconds before this point to as much as 26 seconds after:
TID: [0] [STRATOS] [2015-06-12 18:55:04,564] INFO {org.apache.stratos.autoscaler.client.CloudControllerClient} - Trying to spawn an instance via cloud controller: [cluster] di-000-008.di-000-008.cisco-qvpc-sf-0.domain [partition] whole-region [network-partition-id] RegionOne

4. Between point 2 and 3 (with fuzz for the races), I see Stratos cleaning the old VMs. For example:
TID: [0] [STRATOS] [2015-06-12 18:55:04,580] INFO {org.apache.stratos.cloud.controller.iaases.JcloudsIaas} - Starting to terminate member: [cartridge-type] cisco-qvpc-sf-0 [member-id] di-000-008.di-000-008.cisco-qvpc-sf-0.domaina0f15eed-9599-4f3e-a70a-93ddd02ccf5f
5. However, around that point, look at this:
TID: [0] [STRATOS] [2015-06-12 18:55:12,835] INFO {org.apache.stratos.autoscaler.rule.RuleLog} - [scale-up] Trying to scale up over max, hence not scaling up cluster itself and

[cluster] di-000-005.di-000-005.cisco-qvpc-sf-0.domain [instance id]di-000-005-1 [max] 1
6. Is it possible that there is a race between the terminates and restarts? It certainly seems so, though a detailed knowledge of Startos is needed to confirm it:
TID: [0] [STRATOS] [2015-06-12 18:55:12,798] INFO {org.apache.stratos.autoscaler.rule.RuleLog} - [min-check] Partition available, hence trying to spawn an instance to fulfil minimum count! [cluster] di-000-005.di-000-005.cisco-qvpc-sf-0.domain

Re: ***UNCHECKED*** Problem with Stratos 4.1 failover (was RE:
Problems with Stratos 4.1 failover and autohealing)
Posted by Reka Thirunavukkarasu <re...@wso2.com>.
Hi Shaheed,
As i went through the logs(wso2carbon.log and wso2-cep-trace.log) of
octl-02-after, identified that there is a possibility for the member fault
to occur as cartridge agent didn't publish the events for more than one
minute from 00:53:24 to 00:55:09 ([2], [3]) which is obviously more than
one minute where the cartridge agent health publishing interval is 15s
([1], [2]). I observed this sequence([1], [2], [3]) in the
wso2-cep-trace.log. It has happened intermittently. Please see below for
the details. Member fault occur[4] in stratos side at 00:54:34 as the last
event from cartridge agent was marked as 00:53:24 [2]. The next event from
cartridge agent received at 00:55:09. So, we will need to investigate at
the cartridge agent side why it failed sent the health stats intermittently
even after everything back to normal as i could see that cartridge agent
was publishing health stat after octl-02 came without any issue for nearly
two minutes Eg: [1] and [2]
Is it possible for you to get the cartridge agent logs? I know that it is
little bit hard as stratos will immediately terminate the instance. But if
you could tail the logs, then i believe that you can get the logs from
where you tailed.

>> *Failover of Stratos*
>>

>>
>> The situation here is that I have 3 servers, all running MySQL in
>> active-active mode, and Stratos running on at most one of them under
>> Pacemaker control. The test case is that I kill the server (actually a VM)
>> running Stratos, and Pacemaker responds by starting Stratos on one of the
>> remaining servers. Around the time of the action, there is no ongoing REST
>> activity in terms of defining new Cartridges, or Applications or anything
>> like that.
>>
>>
>>
>> · Expected result: the replacement Stratos instance “acquires”
>> the running Cartridges, and the system continues without killing/replacing
>> any Cartridges.
>>
>> · Actual result: all Cartridges are kill and restarted.
>>
>>
>>
>> *Kill multiple Cartridges*
>>
>>
>>
>> I have a test where several Cartridges are killed at the same time as
>> follows. We have a Cartridge Proxy Server (CPS) that hosts the (Java)
>> Cartridge agent for VMs which cannot run one natively. The CPS therefore
>> runs N+1 JCAs, one for itself plus N for the Cartridges it is proxying.
>> Killing the CPS therefore causes all N+1 JCAs to disappear, and from a
>> Startos point of view, all N+1 VMs need to be restarted.
>>
>>
>>
>> · Expected result: each Cartridges is replaced by Stratos.
>>
>> · Actual result: looking at the Stratos logs, it seems that there
>> is a race between the termination logic which cleans up as old cluster
>> members dies against the startup logic which is spinning up replacement VMs
>> for the terminated ones.
>>
>>
>>
>> Both cases previously seemed to work fine, where we **think** previously
>> means versions of Stratos 4.1 dating back ~3 weeks or so. I attach a series
>> of log extracts for the second scenario; I suspect this also covers the
>> first, even if not, at least we can start here.
