Serviceguard cluster for MySQL on RHEL4

[pymsh]

Dear all
i want to make a 2-node cluster with SGLX A.11.18
and MySQL on RHEL4.
Servers=2xBL20p
Storage=MSA1000 in SAN
The package that i created with MySQL Toolkit, does not start normally, but base package on this cluster works good.
Any help will be appreciated.

Shalom,

No, mysql will not start normally with the standard /etc/init.d/mysqld startup script.

You will need to modify the startup script in a copy somewhat.

Please upload your configuration and error messages.

Hi SEP
I have followed the "Using MySQL Toolkit in a ServiceGuard for Linux Cluster" guide and make the config and script file.
After creating and applying these files, MySQL package does not run on any nodes.
I have repeat steps 3 times, but the problem still exists.

Easy one to fix.

Putting the basic call to start mysql doesn't work because the environment is not correct. All you need to do is use the extract below in your SG control script, and mysql will stop/start with no problems (at least it works for me).


function customer_defined_run_cmds
{
# ADD customer defined run commands.
su - -c "/etc/init.d/mysql start"

test_return 51
}

function customer_defined_halt_cmds
{
# ADD customer defined halt commands.
su - -c "/etc/init.d/mysql stop"

test_return 52
}

Thank you all,
I changed content of control script to run /etc/init.d/mysqld but the problem still exists.
The error is reported as:

# cmmodpkg -e -n N1-n N2 mysql_1
Package mysql_1 is already enabled on node N1
Package mysql_1 is already enabled on node N2
cmmodpkg: Completed successfully on all packages specified

# cmrunpkg mysql_1
Running package mysql_1 on node N1
The package script for mysql_1 failed with no restart. mysql_1 should not be restarted
Unable to run package mysql_1 on node N1
Check the syslog and pkg log files for more detailed information
cmrunpkg: Unable to start some package or package instances

As i said before, i followed T2377-90001 MySQL Toolkit Guide for configuration.
Any suggestion??

What's in the package log file?

Hi,
MySQL package is halted as soon as it's started!!
The MySQL log file is as followed:

Well here is a clue:

"toolkit.sh"
sh: line 0: exec: toolkit.sh: not found
