It’s 0430 and I’ve finally regained access to my admin account. The good news is none of the other clients seem to have been affected.
The short of it, three days ago I started draining one of my nodes. It completed Sunday.
This allowed me time to move it to its new home IP and network. In the course of doing the move, I found that I didn’t understand OSPF well enough. But that’s working.
What I did find is that my system is both complex and very resilient. The system was slowly losing contact with different nodes in the OVN cluster. But because I had configured it to be an HA system, it all just kept working.
Even when it stopped, the rest of the cluster kept on trucking. No changes could be made, but it just ran.
This gave me a few hours to make sure all the network configurations were “right”.
Then I found more places where the HA was just working because I had not updated configuration files.
It all seems good now. A little slow, but it’s working.
