Looking up Monitors through DNS
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
Since version 11.0.0 RADOS supports looking up Monitors through DNS.
|
|
|
|
This way daemons and clients do not require a *mon host* configuration directive in their ceph.conf configuration file.
|
|
|
|
Using DNS SRV TCP records clients are able to look up the monitors.
|
|
|
|
This allows for less configuration on clients and monitors. Using a DNS update clients and daemons can be made aware of changes in the monitor topology.
|
|
|
|
By default clients and daemons will look for the TCP service called *ceph-mon* which is configured by the *mon_dns_srv_name* configuration directive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``mon dns srv name``
|
|
|
|
:Description: the service name used querying the DNS for the monitor hosts/addresses
|
|
:Type: String
|
|
:Default: ``ceph-mon``
|
|
|
|
Example
|
|
-------
|
|
When the DNS search domain is set to *example.com* a DNS zone file might contain the following elements.
|
|
|
|
First, create records for the Monitors, either IPv4 (A) or IPv6 (AAAA).
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
mon1.example.com. AAAA 2001:db8::100
|
|
mon2.example.com. AAAA 2001:db8::200
|
|
mon3.example.com. AAAA 2001:db8::300
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
mon1.example.com. A 192.168.0.1
|
|
mon2.example.com. A 192.168.0.2
|
|
mon3.example.com. A 192.168.0.3
|
|
|
|
|
|
With those records now existing we can create the SRV TCP records with the name *ceph-mon* pointing to the three Monitors.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
_ceph-mon._tcp.example.com. 60 IN SRV 10 20 6789 mon1.example.com.
|
|
_ceph-mon._tcp.example.com. 60 IN SRV 10 30 6789 mon2.example.com.
|
|
_ceph-mon._tcp.example.com. 60 IN SRV 20 50 6789 mon3.example.com.
|
|
|
|
Now all Monitors are running on port *6789*, with priorities 10, 10, 20 and weights 20, 30, 50 respectively.
|
|
|
|
Monitor clients choose monitor by referencing the SRV records. If a cluster has multiple Monitor SRV records
|
|
with the same priority value, clients and daemons will load balance the connections to Monitors in proportion
|
|
to the values of the SRV weight fields.
|
|
|
|
For the above example, this will result in approximate 40% of the clients and daemons connecting to mon1,
|
|
60% of them connecting to mon2. However, if neither of them is reachable, then mon3 will be reconsidered as a fallback.
