mcs-controllernode process fails on non-primary nodes

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      Every time the mcs-controllnode process starts on a non-primary node, it raises an error about the file /var/lib/columnstore/data1/systemFiles/dbrm/tablelocks missing:

      $ sudo systemctl restart mcs-controllernode
      $ sudo systemctl status mcs-controllernode
      ● mcs-controllernode.service - mcs-controllernode
           Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/mcs-controllernode.service; static; vendor preset: enabled)

      I have been told that this is probably "normal" for a non-primary node. If so, then the error message should be improved to clarify that this error is not serious.

      If the mcs-controllernode process isn't supposed to run at all on non-primary nodes, then it might be best to avoid starting the process on those nodes in general. Why is ColumnStore starting a process that it doesn't need?
