When: During a pre-defined DBA maintenance windows
Prerequisites: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/MariaDB/Primary_switchover
- Team calendar invite
Affected wikis:: https://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/highlight.php?file=dblists/s3.dblist
Checklist:
NEW primary: db2205
OLD primary: db2209
- Check configuration differences between new and old primary:
sudo pt-config-diff --defaults-file /root/.my.cnf h=db2209.codfw.wmnet h=db2205.codfw.wmnet
Failover prep:
- Silence alerts on all hosts:
sudo cookbook sre.hosts.downtime --hours 1 -r "Primary switchover s3 T385457" 'A:db-section-s3'
- Set NEW primary with weight 0
sudo dbctl instance db2205 set-weight 0 sudo dbctl config commit -m "Set db2205 with weight 0 T385457"
- Depool NEW from any specific group (API, vslow, dump) if present.
sudo dbctl instance db2205 edit # If some changes were made: sudo dbctl config commit -m "Remove db2205 from API/vslow/dump T385457"
- Topology changes, move all replicas under NEW primary
sudo db-switchover --timeout=25 --only-slave-move db2209 db2205
- Disable puppet on both nodes
sudo cumin 'db2209* or db2205*' 'disable-puppet "primary switchover T385457"'
- Merge gerrit puppet change to promote NEW primary: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/operations/puppet/+/1116789
Failover:
- Log the failover:
!log Starting s3 codfw failover from db2209 to db2205 - T385457
- Set section read-only:
sudo dbctl --scope eqiad section s3 ro "Maintenance until 06:15 UTC - T385457" sudo dbctl --scope codfw section s3 ro "Maintenance until 06:15 UTC - T385457" sudo dbctl config commit -m "Set s3 codfw as read-only for maintenance - T385457"
- Check s3 is indeed read-only
- Switch primaries:
sudo db-switchover --skip-slave-move db2209 db2205 echo "===== db2209 (OLD)"; sudo db-mysql db2209 -e 'show slave status\G' echo "===== db2205 (NEW)"; sudo db-mysql db2205 -e 'show slave status\G'
- Promote NEW primary in dbctl, and remove read-only
sudo dbctl --scope codfw section s3 set-master db2205 sudo dbctl --scope eqiad section s3 rw sudo dbctl --scope codfw section s3 rw sudo dbctl config commit -m "Promote db2205 to s3 primary and set section read-write T385457"
- Clean up heartbeat table(s).
sudo db-mysql db2205 heartbeat -e "delete from heartbeat where file like 'db2209%';"
- Restart puppet on both hosts:
sudo cumin 'db2209* or db2205*' 'run-puppet-agent -e "primary switchover T385457"'
Clean up tasks:
- change events for query killer:
curl -sS 'https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/plugins/gitiles/operations/software/+/refs/heads/master/dbtools/events_coredb_master.sql?format=TEXT' | base64 -d | sudo db-mysql db2205 curl -sS 'https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/plugins/gitiles/operations/software/+/refs/heads/master/dbtools/events_coredb_slave.sql?format=TEXT' | base64 -d | sudo db-mysql db2209
- Update DNS: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/operations/dns/+/1116790
- Update candidate primary dbctl and orchestrator notes
sudo dbctl instance db2209 set-candidate-master --section s3 true sudo dbctl instance db2205 set-candidate-master --section s3 false sudo cumin 'dborch*' 'orchestrator-client -c untag -i db2205 --tag name=candidate' sudo cumin 'dborch*' 'orchestrator-client -c tag -i db2209 --tag name=candidate'
- Check zarcillo was updated
- db-switchover should do this. If it fails, do it manually: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/P13956
sudo db-mysql db1215 zarcillo -e "select * from masters where section = 's3';"
- (If needed): Depool db2209 for maintenance.
sudo dbctl instance db2209 depool sudo dbctl config commit -m "Depool db2209 T385457"
- Change db2209 weight to mimic the previous weight db2205:
sudo dbctl instance db2209 edit
- Update/resolve this ticket.
