Failover prep:

  • Silence alerts on all hosts:
sudo cookbook sre.hosts.downtime --hours 1 -r "Primary switchover s4 T351184" 'A:db-section-s4'
  • Set NEW primary with weight 0 (and depool it from API or vslow/dump groups if it is present).
sudo dbctl instance db1160 set-weight 0
sudo dbctl config commit -m "Set db1160 with weight 0 T351184"
  • Topology changes, move all replicas under NEW primary
sudo db-switchover --timeout=25 --replicating-master --read-only-master --only-slave-move db1138 db1160
  • Disable puppet on both nodes
sudo cumin 'db1138* or db1160*' 'disable-puppet "primary switchover T351184"'
  • Merge gerrit puppet change to promote NEW primary: FIXME

Failover:

  • Log the failover:
!log Starting s4 eqiad failover from db1138 to db1160 - T351184
  • Switch primaries:
sudo db-switchover --replicating-master --read-only-master --skip-slave-move db1138 db1160
echo "===== db1138 (OLD)"; sudo db-mysql db1138 -e 'show slave status\G'
echo "===== db1160 (NEW)"; sudo db-mysql db1160 -e 'show slave status\G'
  • Promote NEW primary in dbctl
sudo dbctl --scope eqiad section s4 set-master db1160
sudo dbctl config commit -m "Promote db1160 to s4 primary T351184"
  • Restart puppet on both hosts:
sudo cumin 'db1138* or db1160*' 'run-puppet-agent -e "primary switchover T351184"'

Clean up tasks:

  • Clean up heartbeat table(s).
sudo db-mysql db1160 heartbeat -e "delete from heartbeat where file like 'db1138%';"
  • change events for query killer:
events_coredb_master.sql on the new primary db1160
events_coredb_slave.sql on the new slave db1138
  • Update candidate primary dbctl and orchestrator notes
sudo dbctl instance db1138 set-candidate-master --section s4 true
sudo dbctl instance db1160 set-candidate-master --section s4 false
(dborch1001): sudo orchestrator-client -c untag -i db1160 --tag name=candidate
(dborch1001): sudo orchestrator-client -c tag -i db1138 --tag name=candidate
sudo db-mysql db1215 zarcillo -e "select * from masters where section = 's4';"
  • (If needed): Depool db1138 for maintenance.
sudo dbctl instance db1138 depool
sudo dbctl config commit -m "Depool db1138 T351184"
  • Change db1138 weight to mimic the previous weight db1160:
sudo dbctl instance db1138 edit
  • Apply outstanding schema changes to db1138 (if any)
  • Update/resolve this ticket.
