Description Chris Feist 2015-12-01 23:37:58 UTC
Description of problem:
pcs tracebacks when in validInstanceAttributes if the fence agent is bad (or errors out).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
pcs-0.9.143-15.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. pcs stonith update <fa name> #(where ra name is the id of a bad fence agent)

Actual results:
Traceback

Expected results:
Proper Error

Additional info:
[root@overcloud-controller-0 heat-admin]# pcs stonith update fence-nova verbose=false
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/sbin/pcs", line 219, in <module>
    main(sys.argv[1:])
  File "/sbin/pcs", line 159, in main
    cmd_map[command](argv)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pcs/stonith.py", line 40, in stonith_cmd
    resource.resource_update(stn_id,argv)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pcs/resource.py", line 887, in resource_update
    bad_opts, missing_req_opts = utils.validInstanceAttributes(res_id, params, resource_type)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pcs/utils.py", line 1757, in validInstanceAttributes
    err("Unable to find resource: ocf:%s:%s" % (resProvider, resType))
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'resProvider' referenced before assignment


If len(resSplit) == 2, then we never set resProvider and the code traces back in balidInstanceAttributes in utils.py.

proposed fix:
https://github.com/feist/pcs/commit/feb21ac50f1bc64344e20485b96c2ebd2a7d8a0d

Setup:
[vm-rhel72-1 ~] $ pcs stonith create xvm-fencing fence_xvm pcmk_host_list="vm-rhel72-1 vm-rhel72-2"
[vm-rhel72-1 ~] $ pcs stonith
 xvm-fencing    (stonith:fence_xvm):    Started vm-rhel72-2
[vm-rhel72-1 ~] $ mv /usr/sbin/fence_xvm /usr/sbin/fence_xvm_tmp

Test:
[vm-rhel72-1 ~] $ pcs stonith update xvm-fencing verbose=false
Error: Unable to get metadata for resource: stonith:fence_xvm

Cleanup:
[vm-rhel72-1 ~] $ mv /usr/sbin/fence_xvm_tmp /usr/sbin/fence_xvm
[vm-rhel72-1 ~] $ pcs stonith delete xvm-fencing
Attempting to stop: xvm-fencing...Stopped
