Overview

This article explains the differences between root and user permissions based on the startup user of Cluster Manager (hereafter CM), and how to check the CM startup user.
 
 

Method

Differences in root and user permissions depending on CM startup user

CM starts with root or user permissions depending on the startup user, and CM started with user permissions cannot manage VIP resources.
 

Checking the CM startup user
1. Check the user of the tbcm process using ps -ef|grep tbcm
 

2. Check the Status / Mst in NODE LIST using the cmrctl show cluster command
  • When running with root permission, Status: UP (ROOT) and the Mst column contains R are shown
  • When running with user permission, Status: UP
     
3. Check the cm log (cm log: the trace_cm.log file located at the CM_LOG_DEST path specified in cm tip)
  • When started with user permission, the log No root permission! vip is not available. appears
 
Caution
If there is a CM running with root permission in the cluster, and another node's CM starts with user permission, the cluster will go down.
