NAME
       /etc/ocfs2/cluster.conf - Cluster configuration file for the o2cb clus‐
       ter stack.

SYNOPSIS
       The  cluster  layout  of	 the  o2cb  cluster  stack  is	specified   in
       /etc/ocfs2/cluster.conf.	  It  lists the name of the cluster, the nodes
       comprising that cluster and its heartbeat regions.  The	cluster	 stack
       expects this file to be the same on all nodes in that cluster.

       This  file  should be populated using the o2cb(8) cluster configuration
       utility. A sample of the same is shown in the example section.

DESCRIPTION
       The configuration file is divided into three  types  of	stanzas,  each
       with  a list of parameters and values. The three stanza types are clus‐
       ter, node and heartbeat. While a configuration file can	store  defini‐
       tions  of  multiple  clusters,  the  o2cb cluster stack allows only one
       cluster to be active at any one time. The name of this  active  cluster
       is stored in /etc/sysconfig/o2cb [o2cb.sysconfig(5)].

       The  cluster  stanza specifies the name of the cluster, number of nodes
       and the heartbeat mode.	The cluster name can include upto 16  alphanu‐
       meric characters [0-9A-Za-z]. No special characters are allowed.

       ┌───────────────┬───────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
       │Parameters     │ Description					       │
       ├───────────────┼───────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
       │node_count     │ Number of nodes in the cluster			       │
       ├───────────────┼───────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
       │heartbeat_mode │ local or global heartbeat			       │
       ├───────────────┼───────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
       │name	       │ Cluster name (upto 16 alphanumeric chars [0-9A-Za-z]) │
       └───────────────┴───────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

       The  node  stanza  specifies  the node name that is part of the cluster
       alongwith its IPv4 address, port and node number.  The node  name  must
       match  the  hostname.  The  domain  name	 is not required. For example,
       appserver1.company.com can be appserver1. The IPv4 address need not  be
       the one associated with that hostname. As in, any valid IPv4 address on
       that node can be used. The o2cb cluster stack will not attempt to match
       the node name (hostname) with the specified IPv4 address. A low-latency
       private interconnect address is recommended for best performance.

      ┌───────────┬────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
      │Parameters │ Description						       │
      ├───────────┼────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
      │ip_port	  │ IPv4 port						       │
      ├───────────┼────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
      │ip_address │ IPv4 address (private interconnect recommended)	       │
      ├───────────┼────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
      │number	  │ Node number (0 - 254)				       │
      ├───────────┼────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
      │name	  │ Node name (hostname without the domain name)	       │
      ├───────────┼────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
      │cluster	  │ Cluster name (should match the name in the cluster stanza) │
      └───────────┴────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

       The heartbeat stanza specifies the global  heartbeat  region  UUIDs.  A
       cluster	can have upto 32 heartbeat regions. This is an optional stanza
       and is only required if the global heartbeat mode is enabled. In	 other
       words,  the  regions are only used if heartbeat_mode = global is in the
       cluster stanza. If not, this stanza is ignored.

      ┌───────────┬────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
      │Parameters │ Description						       │
      ├───────────┼────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
      │region	  │ Heartbeat region UUID				       │
      ├───────────┼────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
      │cluster	  │ Cluster name (should match the name in the cluster stanza) │
      └───────────┴────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

       While manual editing is not recommended, users doing so must follow the
       format  strictly.   The stanza should start at the first column and end
       with a colon. The parameters must start after a tab. A blank line  must
       demarcate  each	stanza. Care should be taken to avoid stray white-spa‐
       ces.

EXAMPLE
       The example below illustrates populating a cluster.conf with a  cluster
       called webcluster, having 3 nodes and 3 global heartbeat regions, using
       the o2cb(8) utility.

       $ o2cb add-cluster webcluster

       $ o2cb add-node webcluster node7 --ip 192.168.0.107 --number 7
       $ o2cb add-node webcluster node6 --ip 192.168.0.106 --number 6
       $ o2cb add-node webcluster node10 --ip 192.168.0.110 --number 10

       $ o2cb add-heartbeat webcluster /dev/sdg1
       $ o2cb add-heartbeat webcluster /dev/sdk1
       $ o2cb add-heartbeat webcluster /dev/sdh1

       $ o2cb heartbeat-mode webcluster global

       $ o2cb list-cluster webcluster
       heartbeat:
	       region = 77D95EF51C0149D2823674FCC162CF8B
	       cluster = webcluster

       heartbeat:
	       region = DCDA2845177F4D59A0F2DCD8DE507CC3
	       cluster = webcluster

       heartbeat:
	       region = BBA1DBD0F73F449384CE75197D9B7098
	       cluster = webcluster

       node:
	       ip_port = 7777
	       ip_address = 192.168.0.107
	       number = 7
	       name = node7
	       cluster = webcluster

       node:
	       ip_port = 7777
	       ip_address = 192.168.0.106
	       number = 6
	       name = node6
	       cluster = webcluster

       node:
	       ip_port = 7777
	       ip_address = 192.168.0.110
	       number = 10
	       name = node10
	       cluster = webcluster

       cluster:
	       node_count = 3
	       heartbeat_mode = global
	       name = webcluster
