Description Nick Carboni 2017-03-22 21:34:47 UTC
Description of problem:
The seeding process on the global fails during a validation when trying to start up after the initial sync.

The issue is that there are rows that would fail a rails validation if they were saved by rails, but because there is no corresponding unique constraint we see the failure when we try to update one of the rows during seeding

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): master

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure region-to-region replication
2. Run `systemctl restart evmserverd` on the global appliance.

Actual results:

The server process fails to start up.

Additional info:
The following backtrace is seen in evm.log indicating a validation error:

In this case the culprit is chargeable_fields, which should probably be excluded.

    Exclude chargeback lookup tables
    
    An AR validation which was being enforced during seeding was
    preventing the global server from starting up with failing
    rows in the database.
    
    This situation happens when the seeded rows get replicated up from
    a remote region and then the global appliance runs through seeding
    again.

Ah sorry, set the version wrong.

This doesn't need a backport.
