Description of problem: Static metadata configuration process, as documented in [0] [1] [2] does not work. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 16.1, 16.2, 17.0 How reproducible: Always reproducible Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure static metadata as described in the documentation, step 9.3.3 in 16.1 doc [0]: ~~~ [stack.lab ~]$ cat templates/compute.yaml parameter_defaults: ComputeExtraConfig: nova::config::nova_config: api/vendordata_jsonfile_path: value: '/home/stack/vendordata.json' ~~~ 2. Deploy overcloud Actual results: Overcloud deployment fails with this error: ~~~ [stack.lab ~]$ sudo cat /var/lib/mistral/overcloud/ansible-errors.json | jq . | grep vendordata_jsonfile_path | tail -1 "<13>May 4 12:34:09 puppet-user: Error: Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Resource Statement, Duplicate declaration: Nova_config[api/vendordata_jsonfile_path] is already declared at (file: /etc/puppet/modules/nova/manifests/config.pp, line: 40); cannot redeclare (file: /etc/puppet/modules/nova/manifests/vendordata.pp, line: 169) (file: /etc/puppet/modules/nova/manifests/vendordata.pp, line: 169, column: 3) on node overcloud-novacompute-4.keller.lab", ~~~ Expected results: Overcloud deploy completes successfully with metadata service configured. Additional info: When using the following template instead, deployment completes without error: ~~~ [stack.lab ~]$ cat templates/compute.yaml parameter_defaults: ComputeExtraConfig: nova::vendordata::vendordata_jsonfile_path: "/home/stack/vendordata.json" ~~~ I believe the documentation needs to be updated to show this block as an example instead of the current one.
