DB Failover Testing Utilities

A set of scripts for testing DB failover scenarios.

The scripts expect to be run with relative execution prefix ./ from within the db-failover directory.

Provisioned services are defined in ../docker-compose-db-failover.yml template.

Set the size of DB cluster

Default size is 2 nodes. For a 3-node cluster run: export NODES=3 before executing any of the scripts.

For more than 3 nodes more service definitions need to be added to the docker-compose template.

Set up the environment

Run ./setup.sh

This script will:

1. Start a bootstrap DB instance of MariaDB cluster
2. Start additional DB instances connected to the bootstrapped cluster
3. Stop the bootstrap DB instance
4. Optionally start Keycloak server

Parameterized by environment variables:

• MARIADB_HA_MODE See: MariaDB HA parameters Defaults to replication:.
• MARIADB_OPTIONS See: MariaDB HA options. Use format: ?option1=value1[&option2=value2].... Default is an empty string.
• START_KEYCLOAK Default is false. Use export START_KEYCLOAK=true to enable.

More options relevant to MariaDB clustering can be found in ../db/mariadb/wsrep.cnf.

Test the failover

Manual failover

To induce a failure of specific DB node run: ./kill-node.sh X where X ∈ {1..3}

To reconnect the node back run: ./reconnect-node.sh X

Automated failover loop

Run ./loop.sh

This script will run an infinite loop of failover/failback of DB nodes, switching to the next node in each loop.

Parameterized by environment variables:

• TIME_BETWEEN_FAILURES Default is 60 (seconds).
• FAILURE_DURATION Default is 60 (seconds).

To exit the script press Ctrl+C.

Check number of table rows across the cluster

Run: ./check-rows.sh

Tear down the environment

Run ./teardown.sh

This will stop all services and delete the database.
