Gourd has a (somewhat simpler) ARECA RAID card. The / system and /scratch are on a RAID created by the card. This was NOT chosen for /home and /mail. Instead /home and /mail are on a software Raid, so that if these services ever need to be moved to other hardware, there is no issues with incompatibility due to Raid card.

The config can be found from /etc/mdadm.conf (least reliable!), but better from /proc/mdstat or mdadm --detail --scan, mdadm --detail /dev/md0

Note that Centos 7 (i.e. RHEL 7) comes standard with "firewalld". Not wanting to bother with "yet another config system for firewalls (tm)", this was disabled in favor of good old iptables, which is the underlaying system anyway. This policy may change int he future.

(To disable firewalld: "systemctl stop firewalld ; systemctl mask firewalld'. To setup iptables: "yum install iptables-services; systemctl enable iptables", and then of course, configure the tables.)

===Shutdown Script===
  
 
apcupsd allows us to do some other useful things, for example it runs the script /etc/apcupsd/shutdown2 which monitors the current battery charge and shuts down certain non-critical systems at specific points to extend battery life. First, when the battery reaches 50% it shuts down [[taro]], [[pumpkin]], [[tomato]], and [[roentgen]]. Later, when battery is at 5% it shuts down the remaining virtual machines, [[einstein]] and [[jalapeno]]. Shutting down einstein and jalapeno at 5% battery isn't meant to save battery, instead this is designed so that these machines have a chance to shut down normally before the battery backup is completely exhausted. The contents of the script can be viewed [[shutdown2|here]].

This key can't be used for shell logins or any other commands.

To see how the volume set maps on the host, you can look at "cat /proc/scsi/scsi" which will list the SCSI devices on the system. This confirms that Channel 0, Id: 0, Lun: 0, is indeed "System". Each "run" is mapped to a /dev/s** device. So, /0/0/0/ (System, RAID1) is mapped to /dev/sda, which is divided into 3 partitions: /dev/sda1, /dev/sda2, /dev/sda3, /dev/sda4.
 +
 
 +
To confuse things, further, in the case of /dev/sda, /dev/sda2 and /dev/sda4 are "lvm", so these are part of a logical volume. The advantage of logical volume is that they can be resized and changed on a live, running system. The disadvantage is that there is quite a bit of additional complexity.  More on this below.

Gourd is a 2 quad-CPU server in a 2U rackmount chassis put together nicely by Microway. It arrived at UNH on 11/24/2009. The system has an Areca RAID card with ethernet port and an IPMI card with ethernet port. The motherboard is from Super Micro.

This is the page for the new Gourd Hardware. The old Gourd is described here.

Gourd now hosts Einstein as a VM. The previous einstein hardware is described here

Setup

Details of Gourd Upgrading to Centos 7

Network Settings

In Centos 7 there is an issue with the drivers for the Nvidia ethernet, which was previously provided through the forcedeth driver. The forcedeth driver which is disabled in the CentOS 7 kernel. You can use the kmod-forcedeth driver from elrepo.org:

http://elrepo.org/linux/elrepo/el7/x86_64/RPMS/kmod-forcedeth-0.64-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64.rpm

The new udev renaming scheme calls eth0 or FARM network = enp0s8, and eth1 or UNH network=enp0s9

  • IP address UNH: 132.177.88.75 (enp0s9)
  • IP address Farm: 10.0.0.252 (enp0s8)
  • IP address RAID: 10.0.0.152
  • IP address IPMI: 10.0.0.151

Software and Services

This section contains details about the services and software on Gourd and information about their configurations.

Software RAID

Gourd has a (somewhat simpler) ARECA RAID card. The / system and /scratch are on a RAID created by the card. This was NOT chosen for /home and /mail. Instead /home and /mail are on a software Raid, so that if these services ever need to be moved to other hardware, there is no issues with incompatibility due to Raid card.

The config can be found from /etc/mdadm.conf (least reliable!), but better from /proc/mdstat or mdadm --detail --scan, mdadm --detail /dev/md0

The drives are passthrough drives on the ARECA card. The association between passthrough drive and device name is established by looking at the SCSI channel number (web interface of the ARECA card) and the Linux /sys:

ls -l /sys/bus/scsi/drivers/sd/0\:0\:0\:0/
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    0 May 19 21:38 block:sda -> ../../../../../../../block/sda/

for each of the 0:0:0:x scsi channels.

  • See More about the disks below

NFS Shares

Gourd serves two volumes over NFS

Home folders: /home on Gourd contains home directories for all npg users. The NFS share is accessible to all hosts in the servers, npg_clients and dept_clients Netgroup lists, and to all 10.0.0.0/24 (server room backend) hosts.

Mail: To reduce the size of the size of the Einstein VM the /mail directory on Gourd stores mail for all npg users. The nfs share is accessible only to Einstein and is mounted in /var/spool/mail on Einstein.

/etc/exports

# Share home folders (copied from old Einstein)

/home                                         \
         @servers(rw,sync)   \
         @npg_clients(rw,sync) \
         @dept_clients(rw,sync) \
         10.0.0.0/24(rw,no_root_squash,sync)

# Share /mail with Einstein 

/mail						\
	132.177.88.52(rw,sync)	\
	10.0.0.248(rw,no_root_squash,sync)


IPTables

Note that Centos 7 (i.e. RHEL 7) comes standard with "firewalld". Not wanting to bother with "yet another config system for firewalls (tm)", this was disabled in favor of good old iptables, which is the underlaying system anyway. This policy may change int he future. (To disable firewalld: "systemctl stop firewalld ; systemctl mask firewalld'. To setup iptables: "yum install iptables-services; systemctl enable iptables", and then of course, configure the tables.) Gourd uses the standard NPG iptables firewall (actually, I copied the endeavour version, with blacklist.) . Gourd allows ssh, svn, icmp, portmap and nfs.

A quick, nice tutorial on systemd iptables is here: https://community.rackspace.com/products/f/25/t/4504

Subversion

Gourd our subversion code repositories stored in /home/svn/. The subversion service runs under xinetd. Its configuration is located in /etc/xinetd.d/svn

/etc/xinetd.d/svn

service svn
{ 
	port        = 3690
	socket_type = stream
	protocol    = tcp
	wait        = no
	user        = svn
	server      = /usr/bin/svnserve
	server_args = -i -r /home/svn
	disable     = no
}

VMWare

Gourd is running VMWare Server version 2.0.2. It acts as our primary virtualization server. it is accessible at https://gourd.unh.edu:8333/ or from localhost:8222 if you're logged in or port forwarding from Gourd over SSH.

As of 6/9/2012 Gourd no longer runs VMWare!!!! We use KVM now.

Guest VMs on Gourd

UPS Configuration

Gourd is connected to the APC SmartUPS 2200XL. It uses the apcupsd service to monitor the UPS. Use the following command (with sudo, or as root) to see a detailed list of information about the status of the UPS, including battery charge and current load.

service apcupsd status

Shutdown Script

apcupsd allows us to do some other useful things, for example it runs the script /etc/apcupsd/shutdown2 which monitors the current battery charge and shuts down certain non-critical systems at specific points to extend battery life. First, when the battery reaches 50% it shuts down taro, pumpkin, tomato, and roentgen. Later, when battery is at 5% it shuts down the remaining virtual machines, einstein and jalapeno. Shutting down einstein and jalapeno at 5% battery isn't meant to save battery, instead this is designed so that these machines have a chance to shut down normally before the battery backup is completely exhausted. The contents of the script can be viewed here.

SSH Keys

In order to issue remote shutdown commands to other machines gourd needs to issue a command over an ssh connection without a password. It uses an rsa key for this purpose (/root/.ssh/shutdown_id_rsa) and each machine is configured to allow gourd to use this key to issue a remote shutdown command. This key can't be used for shell logins or any other commands.

Disks and Raid Configuration

Step 1: Hardware

To see how the volume set maps on the host, you can look at "cat /proc/scsi/scsi" which will list the SCSI devices on the system. This confirms that Channel 0, Id: 0, Lun: 0, is indeed "System". Each "run" is mapped to a /dev/s** device. So, /0/0/0/ (System, RAID1) is mapped to /dev/sda, which is divided into 3 partitions: /dev/sda1, /dev/sda2, /dev/sda3, /dev/sda4.

To confuse things, further, in the case of /dev/sda, /dev/sda2 and /dev/sda4 are "lvm", so these are part of a logical volume. The advantage of logical volume is that they can be resized and changed on a live, running system. The disadvantage is that there is quite a bit of additional complexity. More on this below.


Step 2: Logical Volumes and Hardware Mapping

In modern Linux, the hardware is often mapped, so you need to investigate what piece of hardware ends up to what device. Also, logical volumes are often used to add flexibility. For details on device mapping see: (https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/logical_volume_manager_administration/device_mapper)

The command: "dmsetup info" will show the mapped devices. Each device shows up in /dev/mapper.

For LVM, you have several layers. The physical (i.e. disks), the group, and the layer.

Display the physical disks in use with "pvdisplay" or "pvs". Currently Gourd has 2 physical disks used for LVM: /dev/sda2 (30GB) and /dev/sda4 (140GB). Each disk is used for the same "centos" volume group.

Display the volume groups with "vgdisplay". There is one "centos", with a VGsize of 167.55 GiB.

Display the logical volumes with "lvdisplay" or "lvs". There are currently 3:

   LV   VG     Attr       LSize  Pool Origin Data%  Meta%  Move Log Cpy%Sync Convert
   root centos -wi-ao---- 50.00g
