[pve-devel] [PATCH ha-manager v2 21/26] manager: handle negative colocations with too many services

Daniel Kral d.kral at proxmox.com
Fri Jun 20 16:31:33 CEST 2025


select_service_node(...) in 'none' mode will usually only return no
node, if negative colocations specify more services than nodes
available. In these cases, these cannot be separated as there are no
more nodes left, so these are put in error state for now.

This is not ideal and I'd rather make this be dropped in the
check_feasibility(...) part, but then we'd need to introduce more state
to the check helpers or make a direct call to
PVE::Cluster::get_nodelist(...).

+Test whether a strict negative colocation rule among five services on a three
+node cluster, makes the services which are on the same node be put in error
+state as there are not enough nodes to separate all of them and it's also not
+clear which of the three is more important to run.
+
+The test scenario is:
+- vm:101 through vm:105 must be kept separate
+- vm:101 through vm:105 are all running on node1
+
+The expected outcome is:
+- As the cluster comes up, vm:102 and vm:103 are migrated to node2 and node3
+- vm:101, vm:104, and vm:105 will be put in error state as there are not enough
+  nodes left to separate them but it is also not clear which service is more
+  important to be run on the only node left.
