== Old Tests ==
 
* [[Previous cluster Release Tests]]
 
= Build Environment =
 
This is how to setup a machine for building and releasing new version of RHCS. This requires a proper FAS account.
 
<source lang="bash">
yum -y groupinstall "Development Libraries" "Development Tools" "Fedora Packager"
yum -y install vim wget gnupg
</source>
 
Remove any old builds.
 
<source lang="bash">
cd ~/projects/RedHat/release-manager/
rm -rf ./cluster*
</source>
 
{{warning|1=This must be done on the machine with the [https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/ Fedora Account System - Fedora Project] key.}}
 
Check-out latest cluster.
 
<source lang="bash">
cd ~/projects/RedHat/release-manager/
git clone ssh://git.fedorahosted.org/git/cluster.git
cd cluster/
git branch stable32 --track origin/STABLE32
git checkout stable32
</source>
 
Change this to reflect the appropriate versions.
 
{{note|1=You will need to enter the proper passhrase to sign this TC.}}
 
<source lang="bash">
make -f make/release.mk version=3.2.0 oldversion=3.1.93
</source>
 
== Test Release Tarball Creation ==
 
Push the test candidate to each VM to be tested. Change the version number as appropriate.
 
<source lang="bash">
cd ../cluster-3.2.0-release-candidate/

== Per-Node Compile Test ==
 
64-bit nodes:
 
<source lang="bash">
yum install -y kernel-devel kernel-headers make gcc libxml2-devel openldap-devel dbus-devel net-snmp-libs libibverbs librdmacm \
              slang-devel ncurses-devel perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker openaislib-devel fence-agents resource-agents
</source>
 
32-bit nodes:
 
<source lang="bash">

              slang-devel ncurses-devel perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker openaislib-devel fence-agents resource-agents
</source>
 
For distro testing, only <span class="code">./configure && make</span> are done.
 
<source lang="bash">
cd ~
rm -rf cluster*
tar -xvf cluster-3.2.0.tar
cd cluster-3.2.0
./configure
make
</source>
 
== Cluster Test ==
 
This is done on the final 3-node cluster on.
 
Copy the test tarball to the test nodes.
 
<source lang="bash">
cd ~/projects/RedHat/release-manager/cluster
rsync -av cluster-3.2.0-release-candidate/cluster-3.2.0.tar root@t1:/root/
rsync -av cluster-3.2.0-release-candidate/cluster-3.2.0.tar root@t2:/root/
rsync -av cluster-3.2.0-release-candidate/cluster-3.2.0.tar root@t3:/root/
</source>
 
Then, on each node, run the following commands (replace the version with the appropriate one, of course.)
 
<source lang="bash">
cd ~
tar -xvf cluster-3.2.0.tar
cd cluster-3.2.0
yum -y update
yum -y install vim wget corosynclib-devel openaislib-devel fence-agents resource-agents modcluster ricci
./configure
make
make install
</source>

[stable31 9be00f8] Changes the kernel version check to handle 3.x.y kernels. Now if the 'x' version of the running kernel is higher than the 'x' version of the minimum kernel, the test passes. Also changed the method of checking that version numbers were gathered so that a version number of '0' would be seen as valid.

 Alteeve Wiki :: How To :: RHCS Release Manager

Warning: These are my notes to help me with my duties as the Red Hat cluster release manager. They are not meant to be a general tutorial and no effort is made to make these notes useful in any general way. Unless you are taking over my duties, this page is probably useless to you.

Test Results

These tests are run by copying over the tarball created on the build machine, untar'ing it and running ./configure && make.

Testing v3.1.9x

Per-release test results.

Distro Build Tests

This covers ./configure && make && make install && make uninstall

Distro Arch Date tested
(YYYY-MM-DD) 		Results Notes

Cluster Tests

Host Nodes are Fedora 16, x86_64.

Test Result Notes
Install via make install Pass
Start One Node, No quorum or fence Pass
Start Second Node, Gain quorum and fence third Pass
Full Cluster Start Pass
Withdraw One Node, Retain Quorum Pass
Withdraw Second Node, Drop Quorum
Start rgmanager, Service start
ordered=1 Service migrates when higher priority node joins
Push out updated cluster.conf with new IP, pushes and updates IP
Stop and Start the service via rgmanager
Manual relocate the service
Crash node, fences, recovers service
Release Ready?
General Notes Notes
  • qdisk untested. RPM build untested.

Cluster configuration used

The /etc/cluster/cluster.conf file used in the cluster VMs:

Old Tests

Build Environment

This is how to setup a machine for building and releasing new version of RHCS. This requires a proper FAS account. 

yum -y groupinstall "Development Libraries" "Development Tools" "Fedora Packager"
yum -y install vim wget gnupg

Remove any old builds. 

cd ~/projects/RedHat/release-manager/
rm -rf ./cluster*
Warning: This must be done on the machine with the Fedora Account System - Fedora Project key.

Check-out latest cluster. 

cd ~/projects/RedHat/release-manager/
git clone ssh://git.fedorahosted.org/git/cluster.git
cd cluster/
git branch stable32 --track origin/STABLE32
git checkout stable32

Change this to reflect the appropriate versions.

Note: You will need to enter the proper passhrase to sign this TC. 
make -f make/release.mk version=3.2.0 oldversion=3.1.93

Test Release Tarball Creation

Push the test candidate to each VM to be tested. Change the version number as appropriate. 

cd ../cluster-3.2.0-release-candidate/
ls -lah

Per-Node Compile Test

64-bit nodes: 

yum install -y kernel-devel kernel-headers make gcc libxml2-devel openldap-devel dbus-devel net-snmp-libs libibverbs librdmacm \
               slang-devel ncurses-devel perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker openaislib-devel fence-agents resource-agents

32-bit nodes: 

yum install -y kernel-PAE-devel kernel-headers make gcc libxml2-devel openldap-devel dbus-devel net-snmp-libs libibverbs librdmacm \
               slang-devel ncurses-devel perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker openaislib-devel fence-agents resource-agents

For distro testing, only ./configure && make are done. 

cd ~
rm -rf cluster*
tar -xvf cluster-3.2.0.tar 
cd cluster-3.2.0
./configure
make

Cluster Test

This is done on the final 3-node cluster on.

Copy the test tarball to the test nodes. 

cd ~/projects/RedHat/release-manager/cluster
rsync -av cluster-3.2.0-release-candidate/cluster-3.2.0.tar root@t1:/root/
rsync -av cluster-3.2.0-release-candidate/cluster-3.2.0.tar root@t2:/root/
rsync -av cluster-3.2.0-release-candidate/cluster-3.2.0.tar root@t3:/root/

Then, on each node, run the following commands (replace the version with the appropriate one, of course.) 

cd ~
tar -xvf cluster-3.2.0.tar
cd cluster-3.2.0
yum -y update
yum -y install vim wget corosynclib-devel openaislib-devel fence-agents resource-agents modcluster ricci
./configure 
make
make install

Pushing Changes to git

Initial Setup of git

Don't have notes, this is from bash's history. Sort this out later.

  1. Misc commands
man git-send-email
git clone http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/cluster.git
man git
git branch http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/cluster.git
man git
git show-branch http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/cluster.git
git clone http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/cluster.git
git show-branch
git branch

Pushing To origin

Confirming the changes before committing. 

git diff

Pushing changes;

Commit locally with signature. 

git commit -a -s

(open's editor) 

[stable31 9be00f8] Changes the kernel version check to handle 3.x.y kernels. Now if the 'x' version of the running kernel is higher than the 'x' version of the minimum kernel, the test passes. Also changed the method of checking that version numbers were gathered so that a version number of '0' would be seen as valid.

Distro Testing

 Note: Always update the OS before running tests!

Fedora 15, 16 and Rawhide

Packages to install; 

yum -y groupinstall "Development Libraries" "Development Tools" "Fedora Packager"
yum -y install vim wget corosynclib-devel openaislib-devel fence-agents resource-agents modcluster ricci fence-virt fence-virtd-libvirt fence-virtd-multicast

32-bit versions also need; 

yum -y install kernel-PAE-devel

Now make sure that ricci is running and that selinux, iptables and ip6tables are off. 

sed -e "s/SELINUX=enforcing/SELINUX=disabled/" -i /etc/selinux/config
systemctl disable ip6tables.service
systemctl disable iptables.service
systemctl enable modclusterd.service
systemctl enable ricci.service
systemctl stop ip6tables.service
systemctl stop iptables.service
systemctl start modclusterd.service
systemctl restart ricci.service

Reboot if selinux was updated.

Debian 6

Debian 6 does not support RHEL's Cluster 3.1+ as it's included version of corosync is too old. No further compatibility testing will be run for this version of Debian.

Ubuntu 11.10

Packages to install; 

apt-get update
apt-get -y dist-upgrade
apt-get -y install linux-headers-$(uname -r) libxml2-dev libcorosync-dev libldap2-dev zlib1g-dev libopenais-dev libdbus-1-dev \
 libslang2-dev libncurses5-dev make

Pushing The Release

Once testing is complete and you're ready to release;

Build the final release

cd ~/projects/RedHat/release-manager/cluster
make -f make/release.mk version=3.2.0 oldversion=3.1.93 release=1

<make noise>

You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for
user:

"Cluster Release Team <cluster-devel@redhat.com>"
4096-bit RSA key, ID 6CE95CA7, created 2010-02-08

Make sure things built properly. 

ls -lah ../

drwxrwxr-x   2 digimer digimer 4.0K Jan  3 22:47 cluster-3.2.0-release

Test build one last time

Take the most recently built tarball and do a final test build.

On the test machine, delete the previous build. 

ssh root@an-node03

Last login: Fri Dec 30 13:10:15 2011 from 10.20.0.100

rm -rf cluster-*

Back on the build machine, copy the 'release' tarball over. 

rsync -av ../cluster-3.2.0-release/cluster-3.2.0.tar root@t1:/root/

sending incremental file list
cluster-3.2.0.tar

sent 9029 bytes  received 10759 bytes  13192.00 bytes/sec
total size is 3174400  speedup is 160.42

Now back on the test machine, extract and build. 

tar -xvf cluster-3.2.0.tar
cd cluster-3.2.0/
./configure 
make
make install

If all goes well, we're ready to release!

Push the release!

Make sure you have a summary of the changes. 

cat ~/projects/RedHat/release-manager/cluster-3.2.0-release/Changelog-3.1.93
