I've created an openshift 3.11 3 node cluster, 2 of which are compute
nodes. I've installed storageos on this cluster. One of the compute
nodes seems fine with the storageos installation, however the 2nd
compute node can't reach the 1st node. It appears that the error
is routing related.

the 2nd node will not route to the 1st node it appears.

any suggestions? many thanks.

I can see on your netstat output that StorageOS is bound to the port, not that they can communicate. In fact the Ncat shows that there is no route to host, so they can't connect. StorageOS needs to be able to communicate among its nodes.

The StorageOS docs have a reference about the prerequisites of the ports and how to open them. https://docs.storageos.com/docs/prerequisites/firewalls

It depends on your OpenShift installation if you use ufw, firewalld or straight ip tables.

For ufw try this:

ufw default allow outgoing

ufw allow 5701:5711/tcp

ufw allow 5711/udp

For firewalld try this:

firewall-cmd --permanent  --new-service=storageos

firewall-cmd --permanent  --service=storageos --add-port=5700-5800/tcp

firewall-cmd --add-service=storageos  --zone=public --permanent

firewall-cmd --reload

For straight iptables:

# Inbound traffic

iptables -I INPUT -i lo -m comment --comment 'Permit loopback traffic' -j ACCEPT

iptables -I INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -m comment --comment 'Permit established traffic' -j ACCEPT

iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 5701:5711 -m comment --comment 'StorageOS' -j ACCEPT

iptables -A INPUT -p udp --dport 5711 -m comment --comment 'StorageOS' -j ACCEPT



# Outbound traffic

iptables -I OUTPUT -o lo -m comment --comment 'Permit loopback traffic' -j ACCEPT

iptables -I OUTPUT -d 0.0.0.0/0 -m comment --comment 'Permit outbound traffic' -j ACCEPT

Check also the troubleshooting page of storageos for this particular issue.
https://docs.storageos.com/docs/platforms/openshift/troubleshoot/install#peer-discovery---networking

In addition, less than 3 node cluster is not supported. You can have 1 node for testing or 3+. But having 2 nodes makes impossible to ensure quorum in a distributed environment unless you use StorageOS pointing the kv store to a external etcd.
