之前记录过 [Erlang 0005] net_kernel:monitor_nodes 订阅node连接\断开消息 , 魔鬼在于细节(Devils are in the details),这个模块还是有一些细节要注意,特别是官方文档上语焉不详的问题.先从net_kernel的几个小功能开始:
net_kernel小功能
1. 如果erlang vm启动的时候没有指定name,使用net_kernel可以在运行时指定
Eshell V5.9 (abort with ^G) 1> net_kernel:start([test@nimbus]). {ok,<0.34.0>} (test@nimbus)2>
2. 判断当前是不是longname
([email protected])3> net_kernel:longnames(). true
3. 文档中提到 net_kernel:connect_node的返回值: returned ignored if the local node is not alive.
"local node is not alive" 说的是net_kernel没有启动的情况:
Eshell V5.9 (abort with ^G) 1> net_kernel:connect_node(a.zen.com). ignored 2>
4. In a distributed Erlang system, it is sometimes useful to connect to a node without also connecting to all other nodes. 要实现这个,节点启动的时候添加
-hidden [ REF]
5. 限定指定节点可以连通
net_kernel:allow(Nodes)
下面的几个问题就稍微复杂一些了,都是一些细节的问题,平时不注意可能就成了大坑.
主动断开连接
net_kernel模块导出了一个disconnect方法用来主动断开与指定节点的连接.比如可以 [net_kernel:disconnect(X) || X <- nodes() -- [List_of_wanted_nodes]]. 这样批量断开一批连接.
下面的情况是a,b,c连通,然后a节点主动断开与b的连接,可以看到节点之间的关系变成了下图的关系:
[root@nimbus ligaoren]# erl -setcookie abc -name [email protected] Erlang R15B (erts-5.9) [source] [64-bit] [async-threads:0] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false] Eshell V5.9 (abort with ^G) ([email protected])1> net_adm:ping([email protected]). pong ([email protected])2> net_adm:ping([email protected]). pong ([email protected])3> nodes(). ['[email protected]','[email protected]'] ([email protected])4> net_kernel:disconnect([email protected]). true ([email protected])5> nodes(). ['[email protected]'] ([email protected])6> [root@nimbus ligaoren]# erl -setcookie abc -name [email protected] Erlang R15B (erts-5.9) [source] [64-bit] [async-threads:0] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false] Eshell V5.9 (abort with ^G) ([email protected])1> nodes(). ['[email protected]'] ([email protected])2> [root@nimbus ligaoren]# erl -setcookie abc -name [email protected] Erlang R15B (erts-5.9) [source] [64-bit] [async-threads:0] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false] Eshell V5.9 (abort with ^G) ([email protected])1> nodes(). ['[email protected]','[email protected]'] ([email protected])2> nodes(). ['[email protected]','[email protected]'] ([email protected])3>
不自动连接
只要是涉及到引用另外的节点,比如rpc:call, 当前节点就会自动连接该节点,比如下面:
Eshell V5.9 (abort with ^G) ([email protected])1> rpc:call([email protected],erlang,now,[]). {1356,605316,345986} ([email protected])2> nodes(). ['[email protected]'] ([email protected])3>
如果要取消这个自动连接的行为可以使用dist_atuo_connect 参数,注意这里文档里面有个错误指定的参数不是
false,是nerver.dist_auto_connect这个参数只接收两个值nerver(不自动连接) 和 once (自动连接,默认值).其它的值都是无效的. 如果想要连接到别的节点,就需要主动调用net_kernel:connect_node方法.
下面的测试,我们首先启动一个[email protected]节点,erl -setcookie abc -name [email protected] ,然后启动节点[email protected],注意启动参数中的dist_auto_connect选项:
[root@nimbus ligaoren]# erl -setcookie abc -name [email protected] -kernel dist_auto_connect never Erlang R15B (erts-5.9) [source] [64-bit] [async-threads:0] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false] Eshell V5.9 (abort with ^G) ([email protected])1> rpc:call([email protected],erlang,now,[]). {badrpc,nodedown} ([email protected])2> net_kernel:connect_node([email protected]). true ([email protected])3> rpc:call([email protected],erlang,now,[]). {1356,605925,729498} ([email protected])4> node(). '[email protected]' ([email protected])5>
下面的情况是:(1) [email protected],[email protected] 两个节点启动连通,(2) 然后启动b节点添加 dist_auto_connect never选项启动. (3) [email protected] 节点主动连接节点[email protected] 看下面的结果会发现,[email protected]会收到一个异常消息: global: '[email protected]' failed to connect to '[email protected]' 在另外[email protected]端也会接收类似的信息. (4)注意:[email protected]在报了上面的错误之后,已经和[email protected]连通了
%% Node [email protected] Eshell V5.9 (abort with ^G) ([email protected])1> net_adm:ping([email protected]). pong ([email protected])2> nodes(). ['[email protected]'] ([email protected])3> %% Node [email protected] Eshell V5.9 (abort with ^G) ([email protected])1> nodes(). ['[email protected]'] ([email protected])2> =ERROR REPORT==== 27-Dec-2012::19:08:26 === global: '[email protected]' failed to connect to '[email protected]' ([email protected])2> nodes(). ['[email protected]','[email protected]'] ([email protected])3> %% Node [email protected] erl -setcookie abc -name [email protected] -kernel dist_auto_connect never Eshell V5.9 (abort with ^G) ([email protected])1> net_adm:ping([email protected]). pang ([email protected])2> net_kernel:connect_node([email protected]). true ([email protected])3> =ERROR REPORT==== 27-Dec-2012::23:06:03 === global: '[email protected]' failed to connect to '[email protected]' ([email protected])3> net_adm:ping([email protected]). pong ([email protected])4> nodes(). ['[email protected]','[email protected]'] ([email protected])5>
节点状态监控
下面让[email protected] 设置 net_kernel:monitor_nodes(true),并连接到[email protected]和[email protected]节点;通过flush()可以看到[email protected]接受到nodeup的消息,然后我们关闭[email protected],[email protected]接收到了nodedown消息.启动[email protected]之后,a节点重新与c的连接.
[root@nimbus ligaoren]# erl -setcookie abc -name [email protected] Eshell V5.9 (abort with ^G) ([email protected])1> net_kernel:monitor_nodes(true). ok ([email protected])2> net_kernel:connect_node([email protected]). true ([email protected])3> flush().

Shell got {nodeup,'[email protected]'} ok ([email protected])11> flush(). Shell got {nodedown,'[email protected]'} ok ([email protected])12> %%[email protected] 配合重启 erl -setcookie abc -name [email protected] Eshell V5.9 (abort with ^G) ([email protected])1> q(). ok ([email protected])2> erl -setcookie abc -name [email protected] Eshell V5.9 (abort with ^G) ([email protected])1> q(). ok ([email protected])2> %% [email protected] 节点只是打酱油的 erl -setcookie abc -name [email protected] Eshell V5.9 (abort with ^G) ([email protected])1> nodes(). ['[email protected]','[email protected]'] ([email protected])2> flush(). ok ([email protected])3>
erlang:monitor_node
在ERTS里面还有一个erlang:monitor_node,这个方法用起来还是有点异常的:
- 节点a b c 互通, a节点执行了 erlang:monitor_node('[email protected]',true). 监控c节点的状态
- c节点关闭 a节点收到nodedown消息
- c节点启动,a和c再次通过net_adm:ping连通
- 再次关闭c节点,a节点没有收到nodedown消息
- 启动c节点 ,在a节点重复执行 erlang:monitor_node('[email protected]',true).
- 关闭c节点,a节点收到c的nodedown消息
目前还不清楚这是设计如此,还是bug.请教了一下霸爷他说这里这样设计正常,还是很不太明白,琢磨中.不过看下面的测试,重新连接[email protected]节点之后,该节点的最新信息已经更新到了sys_dist.

好了,今天就到这里.
