Description
Technical Field
The embodiment of the invention relates to the technical field of computers, in particular to a configuration method of a load balancer, a server and a storage medium.
Background
A cloud platform refers to a service based on hardware resources and software resources for providing computing, networking, and storage capabilities. The cloud platform can comprise a control node, a network node and a computing node, wherein a plurality of virtual servers are deployed in the computing node and are used for providing network services for tenants. In a cloud platform, a load balancer usually adopts a Linux Virtual Server (LVS) technology, and the LVS has four working modes in total, which are in sequence from high to low according to performance: direct Routing (DR), Tunnel (TUN), Network Address Translation (NAT), and Full NAT (Full NAT). Except for fullmat, the other three modes with higher performance all require configuration at the back end rs (real server). Typically, the virtual Server on a compute node is a Real Server (RS). At present, only a tenant has access and modification permission to the RS, so that the tenant can configure the virtual server according to the document in the traditional mode; or the tenant provides the account and the password of the virtual server, and the operation and maintenance personnel configure the virtual server. The method for the tenant to configure the virtual server by itself is inefficient, and because the tenant is not an operation and maintenance person, configuration errors are easy, and the load balancer cannot be used normally. The manner in which the tenant provides the account and the password of the virtual server easily causes leakage of the account and the password of the virtual server of the tenant, and is not beneficial to protecting the security of the virtual server rented by the tenant. In order to solve the problem, a direct routing mode in the LVS can be realized by introducing a third-party mechanism to modify a source IP and a destination IP of a packet and newly adding a corresponding forwarding rule, or a NAT mode in the LVS can be realized by introducing a third-party mechanism to modify a destination MAC of a packet and newly adding a corresponding forwarding rule.
However, since two-layer or three-layer addresses of data packets entering and exiting the backend RS need to be modified, the two methods are inferior to the conventional manual configuration method in performance of the load balancer. And because the modification rule of the issued data packet needs to be additionally carried out, the problem that the interface of the back-end RS is changed or the packet loss and even the connection is interrupted after the back-end RS is subjected to thermal migration is caused. Meanwhile, the modification rule of the data packet needs to be configured by background service, and new management work can be added for the restart of the background service, the restart of the physical node and the version change of the modification rule of the data packet; in addition, the switch is also required to support a function of modifying the three-layer or four-layer address of the packet. As can be seen, in the cloud platform environment, the configuration method of configuring the virtual server in the computing node as the back-end server of the load balancer is cumbersome, and the configured load balancer has poor performance.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more apparent, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, it will be appreciated by those of ordinary skill in the art that numerous technical details are set forth in order to provide a better understanding of the present application in various embodiments of the present invention. However, the technical solution claimed in the present application can be implemented without these technical details and various changes and modifications based on the following embodiments. The following embodiments are divided for convenience of description, and should not constitute any limitation to the specific implementation manner of the present invention, and the embodiments may be mutually incorporated and referred to without contradiction.
The load balancing method in the embodiment of the application is applied to computing nodes in a cloud platform, the cloud platform can comprise control nodes, network nodes and computing nodes, and the computing nodes are respectively in communication connection with the network nodes and the control nodes. The cloud platform can comprise at least two computing nodes, wherein each computing node is provided with at least 2 virtual servers, and the virtual servers are used for providing network services for tenants. The network node is configured to support communication between the virtual servers, for example: the network node provides a switch function, a routing function and the like, the control node is used for recording routing information, switch information and the like in the network node, and the control node is also used for recording information of a computing node, such as information of the computing node where the virtual server is located.
In the load balancing method in the embodiment of the present application, a processing flow for each virtual server is as shown in fig. 1:
step 101: and deploying a corresponding agent program on the virtual server, and binding the agent program with the serial port equipment of the virtual server.
Specifically, a corresponding agent is deployed for the virtual server, the agent is a background service running inside a Guest OS of the virtual server, and the Guest OS represents a system in the virtual server. And deploying the agent program, and binding the agent program with the serial port equipment of the virtual server. Since the operating systems and versions of the virtual servers are different, the agent is configured to adapt to different operating systems and versions, such as: windows, Linux, UNIX, etc.
The agent program is adaptive to different operating systems and versions, so that the use scene of the agent program is wide, the agent program only needs to be adaptive once in advance, and the subsequent operation and maintenance work is reduced.
Step 102: and connecting the socket file on the computing node with the serial port equipment in the virtual server to form a communication channel between the computing node and the virtual server, so that the agent program can configure the virtual server as a back-end server of a load balancer.
Specifically, a serial device in the virtual server is connected with a Socket file of the computing node to form a communication channel for communication between the computing node and the virtual server. The virtual server and the computing nodes can realize communication without depending on a network, if the computing nodes write commands into the Socket files, the agent program in the virtual server can obtain the commands issued by the computing nodes by reading the serial port equipment, and after the agent program obtains the commands, the agent program can call corresponding codes to execute operations corresponding to the commands. After the agent program executes the corresponding operation, the result of the operation can be written back to the serial device, and the operation result is read by the computing node through the Socket file. Based on the configuration, the computing node can send an instruction for configuring the back-end server to the virtual server through a communication channel between the computing node and the virtual server, the agent program performs configuration operation on the virtual server, the virtual server in the computing node is configured as the back-end server of the load balancer, and a configuration result is returned to the computing node.
In the embodiment of the invention, a corresponding agent program is deployed on the virtual server, and the agent program is bound with the serial port equipment of the virtual server; and connecting the serial port equipment in the virtual server with the socket file in the virtual server to form a communication channel between the computing node and the virtual server. After the computing node receives an instruction for updating the virtual server, the computing node writes data through the socket file, and the serial port device is bound with the agent program, so that the agent program can read the data in the socket file through the serial port device, and further the agent program can configure the virtual server; based on the above, the computing node can issue an instruction to the agent program, and the agent program configures the virtual server. The virtual server can be directly configured as the back-end server of the load balancer by the agent program, so that an account and a password corresponding to the virtual server do not need to be acquired, the safety of the tenant information corresponding to the virtual server is ensured, meanwhile, manual configuration is not needed, and the configuration efficiency of the load balancer is improved. Because the data packet does not need to be modified and the forwarding rule does not need to be newly added, the configuration steps are simplified, the probability of packet loss is reduced, and the performance of the load balancer is improved.
In one embodiment, after the communication channel between the compute node and the virtual server is formed, the process of the agent configuring the virtual server as the back-end server of the load balancer is shown in fig. 2. After steps 101 and 102 are performed in fig. 2, step 103 is performed.
Step 103: and if the agent program acquires the configuration request issued by the computing node through the communication channel, the agent program configures the virtual server as a back-end server of the load balancer according to the configuration request, wherein the configuration request comprises the information that the virtual server is in a direct routing mode.
Specifically, when a tenant of the cloud platform adds a virtual server on a load balancer configuration page through a control interface provided by the control node, the control node notifies the network node of updating configuration according to the operation of the control interface, and notifies the computing node to send a configuration request to the agent program after the network node completes the updating configuration, wherein the configuration request is used for indicating that the virtual server is configured as a backend server of the load balancer. The configuration request includes information that the virtual server is in a direct routing mode, and the configuration request may further include: an instruction to add a virtual IP address is indicated. The process of the agent to configure the virtual server as a back-end server for the load balancer is described below with specific interaction fig. 3.
The tenant selects a virtual server in the cloud platform to add as a forwarding group through the control interface, namely selects the virtual server to add as a back-end server of the load balancer, and is used for providing services for user traffic.
Correspondingly, the control node executes the following steps in sequence:
step S0: and receiving information for adding the virtual server as a forwarding group.
Step S1: and verifying the validity of the information and storing the added information in a local database.
Specifically, verifying the validity of the information may include verifying an operation authority of the tenant to determine that the tenant has an authority to add the forwarding group, or verifying whether the virtual server to be added is available, and it can be understood that specific verification contents may be set according to actual service requirements, which is not limited by the present invention.
Step S2: and returning an adding result to the tenant through the control interface so as to respond to the adding operation of the tenant.
For example, information of "submission success" or "operation success" is displayed on the control interface.
Step S3: and sending an update request of the load balancing table to the network node of the tenant.
Specifically, the control node may send information of the virtual server to be added to a load balancer deployed on the network node, and instruct to update the virtual server to be added to a load balancing table, where the load balancing table records information of backend servers that can be used by the load balancer, in other words, when the load balancer forwards the user traffic, the load balancer selects a backend server that processes the user traffic from the backend servers recorded in the load balancing table based on a load balancing policy. In one implementation, the information of the virtual servers to be added, which is sent by the control node to the network node, includes virtual IP addresses of the virtual servers to be added, where the load balancer may forward the user traffic to the corresponding backend server based on the virtual IP addresses. In another implementation, the virtual IP corresponding to each virtual server to be added is generated by a load balancer on the network node and synchronized to the control node.
In one implementation, the control node may send an update request to the network node via a Remote Procedure Call (RPC).
Correspondingly, after receiving the update request sent by the control node, the network node sequentially executes the following steps:
step S4: and updating the load balancing table, and completing corresponding deployment updating of load balancing by updating the keepalived configuration file and reloading the keepalived process.
Step S5: and returning the deployment result of load balancing to the control node.
In one implementation, the deployment result returned by the network node includes the virtual IP address corresponding to each virtual server to be added.
Correspondingly, after receiving the deployment result returned by the network node, the control node sequentially executes the following steps:
step S6, updating the database.
Specifically, the control node may update the record saved in step S1 according to the deployment result. Such as updating the virtual IP corresponding to the virtual server to be added, updating the state, and the like.
Step S7: the compute node is notified to send a configuration request to the agent.
Specifically, the control node determines the computing node where each virtual server to be added is located, and by calling the API of the computing service, the API of the computing service notifies the nova-computer service of each computing node, and the nova-computer service of each computing node sends a configuration request to the serial device of the virtual server through the Socket file.
The configuration request may include a virtual IP address corresponding to each virtual server to be added.
Correspondingly, after the agent program on the computing node receives the configuration request through the serial device, the following steps are sequentially executed:
step S8 is executed: and the agent program reads the configuration request through the serial port equipment.
As described above, since the agent program is bound to the serial device of the virtual server, the agent program can read the configuration request through the serial device, and configure the virtual server as the backend server of the load balancer.
Step S9: and returning a configuration result to the control node.
Specifically, after configuring the virtual server as a back-end server of the load balancer, the agent may transmit the configuration result to the socket file through the serial device, the computing node obtains the configuration result in the socket, and the computing node feeds back the configuration result to the control node, where the configuration result is sent to the control node through the socket file corresponding to the serial device.
The control node executes step S10: and updating the database according to the configuration result, thereby completing the configuration update of load balance.
Because the load balancer is configured in the DR mode, the configuration request may include information that the load balancer is in the direct routing mode, and may further include a virtual IP address, and the virtual IP address may be configured on a virtual network card of the virtual server, and the ARP request for the virtual IP address may be masked, for example, the ARP request for the virtual IP address may be masked by an iptable or a stream rule. If the ARP request for the virtual IP address is not masked, the virtual server will return an ARP response to the client, which will result in an erroneous APR response being returned to the client since one compute node has multiple virtual servers. Wherein the client may be another virtual server.
It is worth mentioning that the load balancer is configured to be in a direct routing mode, in this mode, the response traffic of the backend server does not need to pass through the load balancer of the network node any more, but is directly sent to the client, as shown in fig. 4, and the content of one request response traffic is mostly much larger than that of the request traffic, so that the performance of the load balancer can be significantly improved, the packet forwarding pressure of the switch can be reduced, and the response delay of the request can be shortened by using the agent program in cooperation with the DR mode. The configuration work can be automatically completed without manual intervention in the configuration process and obtaining the account password of the virtual server. The configuration work of the back-end server only depends on the agent program, and the issuing speed of the configuration request is very high. The rules need not be modified by means of data packets, simplifying the configuration steps.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 5, step 103 specifically performs the following sub-steps for the virtual server:
substep 1031: and acquiring the virtual IP address to be added in the configuration request.
Specifically, the configuration request includes a virtual IP address to be added, and since the load balancer is configured in the DR mode, the configuration request further includes information that the load balancer is in the DR mode, so that the agent program configures the virtual server according to the working mode of the load balancer and the virtual IP address to be added.
Substep 1032: and configuring the virtual IP address on a loopback network card in the virtual server.
Specifically, a loopback network card on the virtual server is acquired, and a virtual IP address is configured on the loopback network card.
Step 1033: and shielding an Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) request for the virtual IP address, which is initiated by the client.
Specifically, an ARP request initiated by the client for the virtual IP address is masked. By shielding ARP requests for virtual IP addresses, it is possible to avoid returning false ARP responses for clients. In different operating systems, there may be different ways of masking, and this example lists masking operations in windows operating systems and in Linux operating systems.
In a first manner, step 1033-2 is performed: a Linux operating system. And adjusting the kernel parameter in the virtual server to a preset first parameter value.
Specifically, the kernel parameters arp _ ignore and arp _ announce in Linux are configured, where arp _ ignore may be set to 1, and arp _ announce may be set to 2, where the first parameter value includes a parameter value 1 corresponding to the kernel parameter arp _ ignore and a parameter value 2 corresponding to the arp _ announce.
Since arp _ ignore is 1, it means that only the mac address requested is the own network card. For example, one server has two network cards, one of which receives the arp request, but the mac address of the request is the other network card of the server, so that the current network card will not respond. an arp _ announce value of 2 indicates that the most appropriate network card is always used for responding. One host has a plurality of network cards, one of the network cards receives the ARP request, finds that the requested mac address is of the other network card of the host, the network card which receives the ARP request does not respond, and responds only when the requested mac address is the address of the network card.
In a second mode, step 1033-4 is performed: in the windows operating system, the parameter on the loopback network card can be adjusted to a preset second parameter value.
Specifically, parameters in the loopback network card may be adjusted in the windows operating system, for example, the weakhostsend is set to enabled and the weakhostweeve is set to enabled. The second parameter value is "enable".
In this embodiment, by configuring the loopback network card and shielding the virtual IP address, the configuration of the DR mode can be realized through simple operations, and at the same time, the ARP request for the virtual IP address is shielded, thereby ensuring that the configured virtual server accurately receives the data message information.
Further, kernel parameter detection in the virtual server may be performed before step 1033-2; the flow of the detection can be as shown in fig. 6.
Step 1033-0: detecting whether the kernel parameter in the virtual server is the first parameter value, and if the kernel parameter is not the first parameter value, performing an operation of adjusting the kernel parameter in the virtual server to the preset first parameter value, that is, performing step 1033-2. Otherwise, step 1033-1 is performed: and determining that the kernel parameters are correct.
Step 1033-1: and determining that the kernel parameters are correct.
Further, before step 1033-4 is executed, a parameter of a loopback network card of the virtual server may be detected; the flow of the detection can be as shown in fig. 7.
Step 1033-3: and detecting whether the parameter of the loopback network card in the virtual server is a second parameter value, if the kernel parameter is not the second parameter value, executing an operation of adjusting the parameter of the loopback network card to a preset second parameter value, namely executing step 1033-4. Otherwise, step 1033-5 is performed: and determining that the parameters on the loopback network card are correct.
In this embodiment, by detecting whether the parameter on the loopback network card is the second parameter value or detecting whether the kernel parameter is the first parameter value, if so, determining that the parameter of the loopback network card is correct or the kernel parameter is correct, unnecessary configuration actions can be reduced, and the configuration speed is increased.
In one embodiment, in order to avoid disappearance of the virtual IP address after the virtual server is restarted, step 1032-1 may be performed after step 1032 is performed, as shown in fig. 8:
step 1032-1: and saving the virtual IP address into a configuration file of the computing node or a registry of the computing node.
Specifically, if the virtual server is restarted, the virtual IP on the loopback network card will disappear, and in the windows operating system, the persistent storage of the virtual IP address can be realized by storing the virtual IP address in the registry. In the Linux operating system, the persistent storage of the virtual IP address is realized by storing the virtual IP address into a configuration file.
In one embodiment, steps 1032-00 and 1032-03 may be performed before step 1032 is performed in order to ensure that the pair can successfully configure a virtual IP address. The flow is shown in fig. 9.
Step 1032-00: and detecting whether a loop network card exists in the virtual server, and if the loop network card does not exist, executing the step 1032-01. If the loopback network card exists, step 1032-02 is performed.
Step 1032-01: a loopback network card is created on the virtual server.
Step 1032-02: if the loopback network card exists, detecting whether the loopback network card is started, and if the loopback network card is not started, executing the step 1032-03.
Step 1032-03: and starting the loop-back network card.
In this embodiment, by detecting whether a loopback network card exists in the virtual server, when the loopback network card does not exist, the loopback network card is created, and the loopback network card is started at the same time, so as to ensure that a virtual IP address is subsequently configured on the loopback network card.
In one embodiment, after the communication channel is formed, the configuration of the virtual server can be cancelled through the communication channel. The flow is shown in fig. 10:
step 101: a corresponding agent is deployed on the virtual server.
Step 102: and connecting the socket file on the computing node with the serial port equipment in the virtual server to form a communication channel between the computing node and the virtual server, so that the agent program can configure the virtual server as a back-end server of a load balancer.
Step 104: and if the agent program acquires a cancellation request issued by the computing node through the communication channel, the agent program deletes the configured virtual IP address from the virtual server according to the cancellation request, and the cancellation request is used for indicating to cancel the configuration of the load balancer.
Specifically, the agent program judges whether the loopback network card already exists, and if not, the process is ended. And judging whether the virtual IP is configured on the loopback network card or not, if so, canceling the configuration, and removing the virtual IP from the configuration file or the registry.
In this embodiment, the configuration of the virtual server is cancelled through the agent program, and the cancellation is flexible.
In one embodiment, after configuring the virtual server, the computing node periodically receives a health check on the virtual server to check whether the virtual server is available, and if not, marks the virtual server as unavailable so that the load balancer does not forward the packet to the unavailable virtual server.
The process of the agent to configure the virtual server as a back-end server for the load balancer is described below with reference to specific interaction FIG. 11.
The tenant selects a virtual server in the cloud platform to add as a forwarding group through the control interface, namely selects the virtual server to add as a back-end server of the load balancer, and is used for providing services for user traffic.
Accordingly, the control node sequentially performs the following steps S0-S3:
step S0: and receiving information for adding the virtual server as a forwarding group.
Step S1: and verifying the validity of the information and storing the added information in a local database.
Step S2: and returning an adding result to the tenant through the control interface so as to respond to the adding operation of the tenant.
Step S3: and sending an update request of the load balancing table to the network node of the tenant.
Correspondingly, after receiving the update request sent by the control node, the network node sequentially executes the following steps S4 to S5:
step S4: and updating the load balancing table, and completing corresponding deployment updating of load balancing by updating the keepalived configuration file and reloading the keepalived process.
Step S5: and returning the deployment result of load balancing to the control node.
Correspondingly, after receiving the deployment result returned by the network node, the control node sequentially executes the following steps S6 to S7:
step S6: the database is updated.
Step S7: the compute node is notified to send a configuration request to the agent.
Correspondingly, after the agent program on the computing node receives the configuration request through the serial device, the steps S8 to S9 are sequentially executed:
step S8 is executed: and the agent program reads the configuration request through the serial port equipment.
Step S9: and returning a configuration result to the control node.
The control node executes step S10: and updating the database according to the configuration result, thereby completing the configuration update of load balance.
The above steps S0 to S10 are the same as the steps S0 to S10 in fig. 3, and are not described in detail here.
The network node performs step S11: a request for a health check periodically initiated to a compute node.
Specifically, the back-end server of the load balancer has an unavailable condition, such as shutdown and service stop, so to avoid a situation that a request initiated by a client fails, a network node where the load balancer is located will periodically initiate a health check request to a computing node, and a time interval may be 3 seconds or 5 seconds.
The computing node performs step S12: and carrying out health check on each virtual server and returning a check result to the network node.
Specifically, each virtual server performs health check by itself and returns a check result to the network node. If the check result indicates that there is an unavailable virtual server, the load balancer on the network node may set the unavailable virtual server in the forwarding group to inactive, thereby avoiding forwarding requests sent by clients to the unavailable virtual server.
