Description of problem: Running lokkit tools on node will flush the existing iptable rules, and save it to /etc/sysconfig/iptables, then try to start openshift-iptables-port-proxy service to restore openshift iptable rules, it failed, due to "rhc-app-comm" chain is flushed by lokkit. That means even user reboot node, the iptables rules for openshift still can not be restored. Suggest the action about adding "rhc-app-comm" chain should be completed in openshift-iptables-port-proxy service.

Expected results: Add "rhc-app-comm" chain action should be splited into openshift-iptables-port-proxy. Additional info:
I talked with the system-config-firewall maintainer about this a bit and here's a possible solution: * OSE install could modify /etc/sysconfig/system-config-firewall and add: --custom-rules=ipv4:filter:/etc/openshift/iptables.filter.rules --custom-rules=ipv4:nat:/etc/openshift/iptables.nat.rules This would cause the rules to be added just before the right before the reject rules at the end. This is slightly different than today where we inject '-A INPUT -j rhc-app-comm' before the location where admins would normally make their customizations. This _shouldn't_ be a problem because OpenShift gear ports shouldn't conflict with common system services (if they do there will be other problems) * We still have a problem with making sure lokkit doesn't nuke the chain. I think we would add a new custom-rule file that would handle the chain creation. * There is testing needed with 'service iptables save'. If an admin were to run that then the chain creation would be written to /etc/sysconfig/iptables. When lokkit tries to readd the chain it will fail.
I added the following to /etc/sysconfig/system-config-firewall: --custom-rules=ipv4:filter:/etc/openshift/system-config-firewall --custom-rules=ipv4:filter:/etc/openshift/iptables.filter.rules --custom-rules=ipv4:nat:/etc/openshift/iptables.nat.rules The content of /etc/openshift/system-config-firewall is: -N rhc-app-comm -A INPUT -j rhc-app-comm With this in place the following works as expected: # manage /etc/sysconfig/iptables with lokkit and overwrite/reload that file $ lokkit --service=ssh # see if our chain still exists $ service openshift-iptables-port-proxy status The OpenShift iptables port proxy is enabled. # stop the chain $ service openshift-iptables-port-proxy stop $ service openshift-iptables-port-proxy status ERROR: A difference has been detected between state of /etc/openshift/iptables.filter.rules and the rhc-app-comm iptables chain. # try again and verify it loads the chain back $ lokkit --service=ssh $ service openshift-iptables-port-proxy status The OpenShift iptables port proxy is enabled. # verify iptables-save works as expected $ service iptables save $ lokkit --service=ssh $service openshift-iptables-port-proxy status The OpenShift iptables port proxy is enabled. I think we can consider putting the needed logic in openshift.sh. Alternatively we sould add it to the rubygem-openshift-origin-node package. I'd prefer to do the latter upstream and test it first.
We need to verify that oo-diagnostics catches the missing iptables chain.
For clarification, the proposed fix for this is to advise admins not to use lokkit. We will detect that in oo-diagnostics. However, since it ships with RHEL we will do our best to maintain compatibility. To that in oo-diagnostics will also provide advice on how to configure OSE to work with lokkit (as best it can).
