Description John Fulton 2019-11-27 12:52:02 UTC

As per bz 1777020 when using pre-provisioned servers [1] it's possible that the lvm2 package won't be installed on overcloud nodes which will cause deployment of ceph to fail. Though we can document that lvm2 needs to be installed we should also have a validation which fails early if the package is missing. 

We already have a check to ensure that ceph-ansible is installed on the undercloud [2]. We could have a similar check to ensure that lvm2 is installed on the overcloud.

Comment 1 John Fulton 2019-11-27 12:53:32 UTC

Example:

- name: Check required packages
  package_facts:

- name: Fail if missing required packages
  fail:
    msg: "Missing required package: lvm2"
  when: not 'lvm2' in ansible_facts.packages

Thanks John, to take care of this! Again ;-)

You can even check if the package release (if it is already there) is the latest one available.
