Description Evgheni Dereveanchin 2016-02-15 13:20:32 UTC

Description of problem:
Documentation recommends copying files to containers using "oc rsync":
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/openshift-enterprise/3.1/developer-guide/chapter-21-copying-files-to-or-from-a-container

Some container images shipped with OpenShift however have no rsync/tar binaries, so this command does not work.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
registry.access.redhat.com/rhscl/mysql-56-rhel7 (45961eb9dde2)

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create app using the mysql image
 oc new-app --template=mysql-ephemeral
2. try to copy a directory into the resulting pod
 oc rsync somedirectory mysql-1-r2dfz:/var


Actual results:
WARNING: cannot use rsync: rsync not available in containerWARNING: cannot use tar: tar not available in containererror: tar not available in container

Expected results:
directory is copied successfully

Additional info:
We should ensure all containers shipped container images contain tar or rsync. Otherwise we need to update documentation to not advertise "oc rsync" functionality.
