cmannotifyd(8)		   CMAN Notification Daemon		cmannotifyd(8)

NAME
       cmannotifyd - CMAN Notification Daemon

SYNOPSIS
       cmannotifyd [-f] [-d]

DESCRIPTION
       The cmannotifyd daemon talks to CMAN and provides a mechanism to notify
       external entities about cluster changes.

       CMAN dispatches 3 kind of notifications:

       - CMAN_REASON_TRY_SHUTDOWN when cman requests to all clients if	it  is
       allowed to shutdown.

       -  CMAN_REASON_STATECHANGE  when cman detects a node joining or leaving
       the cluster.

       - CMAN_REASON_CONFIG_UPDATE when a configuration change event has  been
       detected/requested.

       These notifications are then dispatched to the shell script cman_notify
       in the environment variable CMAN_NOTIFICATION.

       cman_notify will then execute all the scripts in the configured notifi‐
       cation  directory  (default: /etc/cluster/cman-notify.d) passing a very
       minimal set of envvars including,  of  course,  the  CMAN_NOTIFICATION=
       type.  The execution order is set by the filename as shown by "LC_ALL=C
       ls -las".

       cmannotifyd logs are stored in the  default  log	 file  (/var/log/clus‐
       ter/cmannotifyd.log).

       cman_notify  logs  are  stored  in the default log file (/var/log/clus‐
       ter/cman_notify.log). By default the output from the  scripts  executed
       by  cman_notify	is  redirected	to  /dev/null.	 Users	can either set
       CMAN_NOTIFICATION_DEBUG=1 in their environment or set proper debug con‐
       figuration   in	 cluster.conf	to  redirect  scripts  output  to  the
       cman_notify log file.

NOTES
       cmannotifyd does not block on cman_notify nor check the exit status  of
       the script.

       Notifications  are  dispatched in the same order as they arrive, one by
       one.

       CMAN_REASON_TRY_SHUTDOWN is passed to  scripts  for  information	 only,
       they  can  not  influence  cman's  decsion about whether or not to shut
       down.

       CMAN_REASON_STATECHANGE also implies CMAN_NOTIFICATION_QUORUM  exported
       in the environment. CMAN_NOTIFICATION_QUORUM will be set to 1 (when the
       node is part of a quorate cluster) or 0 (otherwise).

       A template for cman_notify scripts can be found in the doc/ directory.

OPTIONS
       -f     Run in the foreground (do not fork / daemonize).

       -d     Enable debug output.
