Description Alex Stupnikov 2019-07-25 14:15:04 UTC
Description of problem:

In stable/stein we implement support for multiple fencing agents [1]. We can say that some of them are optional, or test-only and shouldn't be supported in RHOSP releases (like ironic fencing). But at the same time, we must support fencing for virtualized control plane, which can be used for production deployments since RHOSP 13 [2].

The puppet-tripleo supports fence_rhevm fencing since stable/stein [3], so I would like to use this RFE to request full support for fence_rhevm fencing agent by "openstack overcloud generate fencing" command [4]. It will be great if we will be able to backport this to RHOSP 13.

Hey Alex, we already track this (rhev) in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1687347 (workflow changes in tripleo-common).
puppet-tripleo bits will be tracked in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1733260.

Cheers,
Luca
