Parameter

There are 10 parameters about the ETCD module.

etcd_seq

name: etcd_seq, type: int, level: I

etcd instance identifier, REQUIRED

no default value, you have to specify it explicitly. Here is a 3-node etcd cluster example:

etcd: # dcs service for postgres/patroni ha consensus
  hosts:  # 1 node for testing, 3 or 5 for production
    10.10.10.10: { etcd_seq: 1 }  # etcd_seq required
    10.10.10.11: { etcd_seq: 2 }  # assign from 1 ~ n
    10.10.10.12: { etcd_seq: 3 }  # use odd numbers
  vars: # cluster level parameter override roles/etcd
    etcd_cluster: etcd  # mark etcd cluster name etcd
    etcd_safeguard: false # safeguard against purging
    etcd_clean: true # purge etcd during init process

etcd_cluster

name: etcd_cluster, type: string, level: C

etcd cluster & group name, etcd by default

default values: etcd, which is a fixed group name, can be useful when you want to use deployed some extra etcd clusters

etcd_safeguard

name: etcd_safeguard, type: bool, level: G/C/A

prevent purging running etcd instance? default value is false

If enabled, running etcd instance will not be purged by etcd.yml playbook.

etcd_clean

name: etcd_clean, type: bool, level: G/C/A

purging existing etcd during initialization? default value is true

If enabled, running etcd instance will be purged by etcd.yml playbook, which makes the playbook fully idempotent.

But if etcd_safeguard is enabled, it will still abort on any running etcd instance.

etcd_data

name: etcd_data, type: path, level: C

etcd data directory, /data/etcd by default

etcd_port

name: etcd_port, type: port, level: C

etcd client port, 2379 by default

etcd_peer_port

name: etcd_peer_port, type: port, level: C

etcd peer port, 2380 by default

etcd_init

name: etcd_init, type: enum, level: C

etcd initial cluster state, new or existing

default values: new, which will create a standalone new etcd cluster.

The value existing is used when trying to add new member to existing etcd cluster.

etcd_election_timeout

name: etcd_election_timeout, type: int, level: C

etcd election timeout, 1000 (ms) by default

etcd_heartbeat_interval

name: etcd_heartbeat_interval, type: int, level: C

etcd heartbeat interval, 100 (ms) by default
