Hello,
I have a test lab and its use VirtualBox with two VMs as below:
VM1 (node1): This VM has two NICs (NAT, Host-only Adapter)
VM2 (node2): This VM has one NIC (Host-only Adapter)
On VM1, I use the NAT interface for the port forwarding: "127.0.0.1:2080" on
Host FORWARDING TO 127.0.0.1:80 on Guest.
The IP addresses of my VMs are:
192.168.56.7 node1
192.168.56.8 node2
These nodes using the Pacemaker clustering and when node1 stopped, then a floting IP
address (192.168.56.9) replace it.
# pcs cluster stop node1
node1: Stopping Cluster (pacemaker)...
node1: Stopping Cluster (corosync)...
# pcs status
Error: error running crm_mon, is pacemaker running?
Could not connect to the CIB: Transport endpoint is not connected
crm_mon: Error: cluster is not available on this node
# curl http://192.168.56.9
<html>
<body>My Test Site - node2</body>
</html>
In normal state, when I browse "http://127.0.0.1:2080" on my host, then it
shows me "My Test Site - node1", but when I stopped node1 cluster and browse
"http://127.0.0.1:2080" it doesn't show me "My Test Site -
node2".
Can I use Firewalld to forward the requests to "http://192.168.56.9" when node1
stopped?
No. You can't use firewalld for that. I think you need a real load
balance - something like haproxy.
