DESCRIPTION

       Cluster options used by Pacemaker's controller (formerly called crmd)

SUPPORTED PARAMETERS

       dc-version = string [none]
           Pacemaker version on cluster node elected Designated Controller (DC)

           Includes a hash which identifies the exact changeset the code was built from. Used for
           diagnostic purposes.

       cluster-infrastructure = string [corosync]
           The messaging stack on which Pacemaker is currently running

           Used for informational and diagnostic purposes.

       cluster-name = string [(null)]
           An arbitrary name for the cluster

           This optional value is mostly for users' convenience as desired in administration, but
           may also be used in Pacemaker configuration rules via the #cluster-name node
           attribute, and by higher-level tools and resource agents.

       dc-deadtime = time [20s]
           How long to wait for a response from other nodes during start-up

           The optimal value will depend on the speed and load of your network and the type of
           switches used.

       cluster-recheck-interval = time [15min]
           Polling interval to recheck cluster state and evaluate rules with date specifications

           Pacemaker is primarily event-driven, and looks ahead to know when to recheck cluster
           state for failure timeouts and most time-based rules. However, it will also recheck
           the cluster after this amount of inactivity, to evaluate rules with date
           specifications and serve as a fail-safe for certain types of scheduler bugs. Allowed
           values: Zero disables polling, while positive values are an interval in seconds(unless
           other units are specified, for example "5min")

       load-threshold = percentage [80%]
           Maximum amount of system load that should be used by cluster nodes

           The cluster will slow down its recovery process when the amount of system resources
           used (currently CPU) approaches this limit

       node-action-limit = integer [0]
           Maximum number of jobs that can be scheduled per node (defaults to 2x cores)

       fence-reaction = string [stop]
           How a cluster node should react if notified of its own fencing

           A cluster node may receive notification of its own fencing if fencing is
           misconfigured, or if fabric fencing is in use that doesn't cut cluster communication.
           Allowed values are "stop" to attempt to immediately stop Pacemaker and stay stopped,
           or "panic" to attempt to immediately reboot the local node, falling back to stop on
           failure.

       election-timeout = time [2min]
           *** Advanced Use Only ***

           Declare an election failed if it is not decided within this much time. If you need to
           adjust this value, it probably indicates the presence of a bug.

       shutdown-escalation = time [20min]
           *** Advanced Use Only ***

           Exit immediately if shutdown does not complete within this much time. If you need to
           adjust this value, it probably indicates the presence of a bug.

       join-integration-timeout = time [3min]
           *** Advanced Use Only ***

           If you need to adjust this value, it probably indicates the presence of a bug.

       join-finalization-timeout = time [30min]
           *** Advanced Use Only ***

           If you need to adjust this value, it probably indicates the presence of a bug.

       transition-delay = time [0s]
           *** Advanced Use Only *** Enabling this option will slow down cluster recovery under
           all conditions

           Delay cluster recovery for this much time to allow for additional events to occur.
           Useful if your configuration is sensitive to the order in which ping updates arrive.

       stonith-watchdog-timeout = time [0]
           How long to wait before we can assume nodes are safely down when watchdog-based
           self-fencing via SBD is in use

           If nonzero, along with `have-watchdog=true` automatically set by the cluster, when
           fencing is required, watchdog-based self-fencing will be performed via SBD without
           requiring a fencing resource explicitly configured. If `stonith-watchdog-timeout` is
           set to a positive value, unseen nodes are assumed to self-fence within this much time.
           +WARNING:+ It must be ensured that this value is larger than the
           `SBD_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT` environment variable on all nodes. Pacemaker verifies the
           settings individually on all nodes and prevents startup or shuts down if configured
           wrongly on the fly. It's strongly recommended that `SBD_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT` is set to
           the same value on all nodes. If `stonith-watchdog-timeout` is set to a negative value,
           and `SBD_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT` is set, twice that value will be used. +WARNING:+ In this
           case, it's essential (currently not verified by Pacemaker) that `SBD_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT`
           is set to the same value on all nodes.

       stonith-max-attempts = integer [10]
           How many times fencing can fail before it will no longer be immediately re-attempted
           on a target
