This article will help you make DOT plots (graphs) to visualize Pacemaker configurations and validate constraints.
From a machine with crm_simulate installed (part of Pacemaker), and the cib.xml from the cluster that you want to plot, enter the following command:
$ crm_simulate --xml-file=cib.xml -VVVVV \ --save-graph tmp.graph \ --save-dotfile tmp.dot \ --node-up host-a \ --node-up host-b \ --node-up host-c \ --node-up host-d
Then, by using the resulting DOT file as input, you can create a graph of the data and output it to a PDF file.
$ dot -Tpdf tmp.dot -o tmp.pdf
To render the graph from left to right rather than top to bottom, add rankdir=LR to the DOT file:
digraph g {
rankdir=LR;
p_redis:1_post_notify_start_0 host-a (586) [ style=bold color=green fontcolor=black]
p_redis:0_post_notify_start_0 host-b (585) [ style=bold color=green fontcolor=black]
