Migrate Cluster min read

The following semi-automated process can be used to migrate from MemSQL Ops to MemSQL tools.

Command output examples are provided. Note that, as they are representative samples, what is displayed on your screen may vary.

Info

Unless explicitly stated otherwise, perform all of the following steps on/from the Master Aggregator.

In the commands provided, replace all instances of content in angle brackets with the referenced substitute. Note that multiple instances may need to be replaced in a single command.

Change to the /home/<user>/memsql/memsql-toolbox-<version> directory first before running all commands.

In some cases, a script may require non-password access to all hosts in the cluster.

Review Current Cluster

Use MemSQL Ops to validate the MemSQL cluster health. Confirm that all nodes are listed, online, healthy, and are running MemSQL 6.7 or later. Make sure that the nodes meet these requirements before proceeding with the migration.

/home/<user>/memsql/memsql-ops-<version>/memsql-ops/memsql-ops memsql-list

 9A551DA  A5f0572   RUNNING        CONNECTED      LEAF        10.0.0.136  3306  x.x

Confirm Connectivity

Confirm that memsql-ops agent-ssh can be used to SSH (open a secure shell) into each host in the cluster. Although this command is used to SSH into hosts, the initial output of the command can be used to check whether SSH has been configured on all hosts.

Note: After invoking the following interactive prompt, exit the command immediately by using Control-C without actually connecting to hosts via SSH.

/home/<user>/memsql/memsql-ops-<version>/memsql-ops/memsql-ops agent-ssh
****
 Index  ID       Host        Port  Role      State   Version  Has Credential 
 1      Aeea1ec  10.0.0.98   9000  PRIMARY   ONLINE  x.x      No             
 2      A005a87  10.0.0.133  9000  FOLLOWER  ONLINE  x.x      Yes            
 3      Aa9367f  10.0.0.236  9000  FOLLOWER  ONLINE  x.x      Yes            
 4      Ad90aba  10.0.0.136  9000  FOLLOWER  ONLINE  x.x      Yes

In the output displayed above, only the main host where the Ops primary agent runs should reflect No for Has Credential. For all other hosts, it is strongly recommended to set an SSH credential before proceeding with the migration. MemSQL Toolbox must SSH into each host to run commands. This means that if the SSH credentials are not set, you will be prompted for a username and a password for every host in the cluster, for every MemSQL Toolbox command that you will run. To configure ssh keys for each host, run the memsql-ops agent-set-credential command (see instructions).

Alternatively, use the following script to automate this process. While executing the script, make sure to provide the ssh keys where applicable.

/home/<user>/memsql/memsql-ops-<version>/memsql-ops/memsql-ops agent-list -q | xargs -n 1 /home/<user>/memsql/memsql-ops-<version>/memsql-ops/memsql-ops agent-set-credential -i </key-file/including/path>

Enable Manual Control

Enable manual control of the MemSQL cluster to prevent MemSQL Ops from interfering with the MemSQL Toolbox install.

/home/<user>/memsql/memsql-ops-<version>/memsql-ops/memsql-ops cluster-manual-control --enable
****
The cluster is now under manual control. We will not automatically restart stopped nodes, update license files, etc.

Alert

MemSQL Ops will not automatically restart nodes that fail during the migration. While MemSQL Toolbox has been installed, no hosts or nodes are known to it yet. Hence, nodes will not be auto-restarted if they fail while the migration is underway.

Add a MemSQL License

If you are using a license with an earlier format (called the Odin license), update it to the latest license (called the Freya license) obtained from the MemSQL Customer Portal. To verify the format of the current license, use the command below:

/home/<user>/memsql/memsql-ops-<version>/memsql-ops/memsql-ops license-list -j

The license marked as best is the one in current use, and the expected format of the license is <HASH>==. If the current license does not match the expected format, request a new license in the Customer Portal and add it using the command below:

/home/<user>/memsql/memsql-ops-<version>/memsql-ops/memsql-ops license-add --license-key <license>
****
Successfully added license.

Set Root Password

Set the root password for all nodes in the cluster. Substitute the Master Aggregator’s password for in the following command.

/home/<user>/memsql/memsql-ops-<version>/memsql-ops/memsql-ops memsql-list -q | xargs -n 1 \
/home/<user>/memsql/memsql-ops-<version>/memsql-ops/memsql-ops memsql-update-root-password --no-confirmation -p <password>

Generate Cluster Migration File

Run the following command to generate a cluster migration YAML file that will pass the cluster information from MemSQL Ops to MemSQL Toolbox. The cluster migration YAML file will be used in the command in the next step.

/home/<user>/memsql/memsql-ops-<version>/memsql-ops/memsql-ops migration-setup
****
Check succeeded: All nodes on MemSQL version x.x
Check succeeded: All nodes online and connected
Check succeeded: All nodes with supported license version
All checks passed. Migration configuration file written to /home/<user>/memsql/memsql-ops-<version>/memsql-ops/data/cache/migration_config.yml

Modify Migration File

At the bottom of the YAML file:

Change memsql_server_version to memsql_server_file_path: /home/<user>/memsql/memsql-server-<version>.tar.gz

Change package_type: rpm to package_type: tar

These two lines should then resemble:

memsql_server_file_path: /home/<user>/memsql/memsql-server-<version>.tar.gz
package_type: tar

Add Root Password

Run the following command to add the root_password to the end of the cluster migration YAML file. Substitute the Master Aggregator’s password for .

echo 'root_password: <password>' >> <cluster_file>

Deploy Migration File

Use the cluster migration YAML generated by the previous command.

./memsql-deploy setup-cluster --cluster-file <cluster_file>

Restart Nodes

Use MemSQL Toolbox to restart all nodes. This transfers cluster control to MemSQL Toolbox. After this step is completed, MemSQL Toolbox will manage the cluster, including automatically starting any offline nodes.

./memsql-admin restart-node --all --online

Warning

While this step is underway, the node state may be registered incorrectly in MemSQL Toolbox (as displayed by memsql-admin list-nodes). You can check the actual cluster state with SHOW LEAVES or SHOW AGGREGATORS executed in a database connection to the Master Aggregator. When this step is completed, MemSQL Toolbox should show the node state accurately.
