Subject: [PATCH ha-manager v2 11/14] test: add auto rebalance test case for fluctuating node base loads
Date: Sun, 18 Oct 2026 14:45:55 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261018124559.24305-12-Michael@RyomHerold.dk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261018124559.24305-1-Michael@RyomHerold.dk>
Add a test case, where the base loads of two nodes, which are not caused
by any HA resource, are flipped by about half a percentage point of node
load in alternating directions, while a single dominant HA resource runs
on one of them.
The expected log records the current behavior, where vm:100 is migrated
back and forth after each flip (see bug #8059). It is adapted by the
following patch.

+Test that a single dominant HA resource does not oscillate between two nodes
+whose base loads (i.e. load not caused by any HA-managed service, here set via
+the node base load of the simulated hardware) fluctuate around each other.
+
+The cluster has two nodes with an equal base load and one dominant movable
+HA resource vm:100 on node1. The imbalance is permanently above the trigger
+threshold, but no motion can improve it, so the load balancer stays armed
+without acting. Then the node base loads are repeatedly flipped by about half
+a percentage point of node load in alternating directions.
+
+Each raw sample after a flip qualifies a migration of vm:100 to the less
+loaded node (and after the next flip, back again), as the expected relative
+imbalance improvement of about 10.4% exceeds the default margin of 10%.
+Acting on the raw samples moves the dominant resource back and forth with
+every flip, even though the fluctuation is well within the noise of a real
+node's base load.
