Feature

• Add a check in 'stack report system' for named

• Upgrade to Python 3.6.6

• turn status field into a real feature

  Enhanced the message queue status reporting to be hostid based (not
  hostname) and added a ttl to all messages. The first part fixes issues
  when hosts are renamed and the status gets lost, now everything is
  keyed off the ID from the nodes table (permanent for lifetime of
  host). The second allows us the age out messages at different rates.

  Instrumented multiple parts of the installer to send more fine grained
  status messages. The typical workflow of a system install will see the
  following messages:

  message	ttl
  install profile request	30
  install profile sent	30
  install profile	300
  install download	3600
  install stage=pre	3600
  install stage=pre-package	3600
  install download	3600
  install stage=post	3600
  install reboot	300
  install stage=boot-pre	3600
  install stage=boot-post	3600
  online	120

  The install download is seen both before the second stage image
  downloads and rpm tracker lookups. All install * messages should be
  thought of as the previous install and the extra information is for
  debugging and may change at any time.

  The online state was previously called up and just meant that the
  installer's first pass was done and the host was on the network. For
  SuSe it could be seens even though the second pass of the installer
  was active. To improve on this Stacki now tracks is sshd is running
  as a seperate state (piggy-back on the existing health message). The
  inspired a new command stack list host status which a state and
  ssh fields. The state field is the previous health message as
  described above. The ssh field is up IFF sshd is running, and None
  if it is not (TTL same as the state health).

  The new stack list host status command means:

  • stack list host status field is now deprecated and will be
    removed in the next release. Just still present to keep existing
    consumers from crashing but it will always says deprecated.

  • pluggins can be used to add move status (is service X runnning?)

  Other stuff:

      * update Redis to 4.0.11
    * change rmq to smq
    * health channel is now json payload (backwards compat with
        old text - but will deprecate)
    * stack-mq is now in the installer (SLES only)
    * stack-publish.py is gone replaced by updated smq-publish
    * fixed some leftover Python3 transition encode()/decode() bugs
    * remove old processors related to StackIQ Enterprise
    * changed `message` field in `Message` to `payload` (less confusing)
    * added psutil to foundation-python-packages
      * this requires refreshing version of all python code
      * hard code PyMySQL to 0.8.1 (newer version require newer pip)
  

  ToDo:

    * Instrument RedHat installer
    * Need a `install start` state (where to trigger it?)
    * fix test_enable_discover.py
  

• Added the ability to have 'auto' in the IP address field in a host configuration spreadsheet and 'set host interface' command.

  Host IP address will be automatically assigned based on the network address, mask.

  JIRA: STACKI-419

• remove the dump command

• Enhance stack add pallet to recognize and add SUSE Enterprise Storage media.

• Add 'load hostfile' test for duplicate interfaces

• add cart accepts url and credentials on the command line

  BREAKING CHANGE:
  ALTER TABLE carts ADD url TEXT;

  list pallet expanded=true displays the url
  generalize the download function of add pallet and place it in pylib
  from stack.download import fetch
  file = fetch(url, username="", password="")
  username and password are optional

• add ability to list supported switches

• Split switch library into multiple files

• Add vendor/make to output of 'stack list switch'

• Add tests for 'stack add/remove host alias'

  JIRA: STACKI-286

• add a url column to the rolls table

  BREAKING CHANGE:
  ALTER TABLE rolls ADD url TEXT;

  add an optional expanded parameter to list pallet to display the url
  accept username and password parameters for downloading pallets

• [add,list] storage [controller,partition] with 'os' scope

  changed sql commands to the new format to prevent injection

Bugfix

• Validation of host interface before entering them in etc/hosts file

• stack report ansible remove padChar ------ from output

  Also moved ansible into foundation-python-packages, and cleaned
  up the code to use correct stacki-style argument parsing

• when adding a new api group, if the group already exists, the command error that gets raised is malformed

• Ensure stack report host only produces unique entries.

• Update interface information with MAC addresses correctly

  When installing a backend node, all the interfaces are reported
  back by the installer. Any interfaces missing on the frontend,
  will be added to the database.

  The Bug is - when interfaces are specified in the database, with
  all the information except the MAC address, this call fails to
  update the MAC address.

  This commit fixes that.

  FIXES: JIRA STACKI-585

• Set the frontend root password during frontend-install.py

• minor tweak to make running set-up.sh more user-friendly

• Plugins no longer run on a remove of an empty a:backend

• Prevent syncing dhcpd with duplicate host interfaces

• Fix database backup cronjob script

• Major overhaul of the Dell x1052 ethernet switch configuration code.

  BREAKING CHANGE: Apply 'ALTER TABLE switchports DROP PRIMARY KEY;' to database.

• Prevent loading a hostfile with entries containing an IP but no network

  This fixes JIRA: STACKI-551

• In select(), we need to stringify the sql parameters to be able to join() them.

• Prevent set host boot from throwing exception when given a valid-but-empty host specification.

• add api user needs to return formatted output

  This fixes JIRA: STACKI-536

  When running stack add api user, the code would print
  the credentials of the user that were just created.
  This mean when this command was called through the ReST API,
  it would fail, since it would print the output on standard out,
  and not through stacki command line formatted output.

  This commit fixes the above problem.

  FEATURE: Calling "add api user" from the ReST API returns JSON

  The following JSON

  [
      {
          "hostname": "front.end.name",
          "key": "ran.dom.key",
          "username": "user.name"
      }
  ]

This can then be parsed by clients for future use.

• fix typo in remove storage partition and prevent call/command list.firewall from printing other appliance rules as their own

• 'sync host network' continues without backend's ssh available

• Added more required input and error handling for "remove storage partition"

  Now requires device="*" to remove all scope=global partitioning
  Warns when using deprecated host input without scope=host
  Warns when using a non-existent scope

• Removed extra "." on PQDN

Git

• starting release 5.1rc6
