Description Lijo Stephen Thomas 2021-09-28 07:11:04 UTC

Description of problem:
-----------------------
After upgrading the RHCS 4 (barmetal) cluster to RHCS 5 (containerized), the cephadm-preflight.yml playbook fails to install ceph-common (ceph-common-16.2.0-117.el8cp.x86_64.rpm) packages on host, due to older ceph packages(RHCS 4) installed on the host (original cluster was baremetal)
Removing older ceph packages results in removal of /etc/ceph directory, and also takes down all running ceph services. We need a way to gracefully carryout the package clean up, inorder to be able to install latest ceph-common.

Edit:
Note: the pre-flight is executed post upgrade activity (post executing of rolling_update and cephadm-adopt playbooks)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
-------------------------------------------------------------
RHCS 5.0


How reproducible:
-----------------
Every time


Steps to Reproduce:
-------------------
1. Install RHCS 4 baremetal cluster.
2. Switch the cluster to containerized in preparation to RHCS 5 upgrade.
3. Upgrade the cluster to RHCS 5.
4. Run the cephadm-preflight.yml playbook
