RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Red Hat Product Errata RHSA-2016:2578 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE Moderate: pacemaker security, bug fix, and enhancement update 2016-11-03 12:07:24 UTC

Description Ivan Devat 2016-07-29 11:02:22 UTC 
Description of problem:
When running "crm_mon --one-shot --inactive" there is "Full list of resources" header. But when running "crm_mon --one-shot" the header is not there.
When pcs command "pcs status resources" displays resources status it runs "crm_mon" and looks for the header to identify the resources section in the output. If the header is missing there is no reliable way to identify the resources section.

Steps to Reproduce:
vm-rhel72-1 ~] $ crm_mon --one-shot --inactive

Actual results:
There is no resources section header in second listing.

Expected results:
There is resources section header. Something like "List of active resources".
Or better - introduce new flag for crm_mon to display only resources section.
Comment 2 Ken Gaillot 2016-07-29 16:39:01 UTC 
I agree that crm_mon should be consistent here, but the console output often changes from release to release and is not guaranteed to be parseable. crm_mon has a -X/--as-xml option to generate XML output that is kept stable across releases for automated parsing. It even has a schema file, /usr/share/pacemaker/crm_mon.rng.

When using the XML output, many of the options that control what is displayed are ignored; it simply outputs the maximum information. So for resources, there are <resource> entries with active="true" or "false", regardless of whether --inactive is specified.

FYI there is a --hide-headers option for console output; it does print nodes as well as resources, but it gets rid of everything else.
Comment 3 Ken Gaillot 2016-08-02 15:31:33 UTC 
I'll try to fix the header issue for 7.3, but understand that the console output changes from one pacemaker version to another, so it can't be relied on in the long term.

Is your goal to display only certain sections of the crm_mon output? For example, just the resources, or just the resources and the failcounts. If that's the case, I have an idea for an enhancement that could make it into 7.4. We could add an --include option to crm_mon that would take a comma-separated list of sections you want to display. E.g. "crm_mon --include resources,failcounts". Would that be sufficient?

I don't, precisely because of the next thing you say.

Exactly. Never parse the ascii, use --as-xml instead.

We should be trimming the human readable output, not adding extra noise to satisfy people using the wrong format :)

That would be great!
Comment 6 Ken Gaillot 2016-08-03 22:18:23 UTC 
Fixed upstream as of commit 11cbc8c2

crm_mon now consistently prints a resources section heading, for both console and HTML output formats, that is one of the following values as appropriate to the command-line options used:

  --group-by-node --inactive: "Inactive resources" or "No inactive resources"
  --inactive: "Full list of resources" or "No resources"
  (none): "Active resources" or "No active resources"

Agreed, but proceeded anyway for two reasons:

* pcs needs a short-term (7.3) solution while the correct solution will be a significant project (7.4 timeframe)

* It turns out to be quite useful for end users, because the resource list is always headed by either "Active resources" or "Full list of resources", making it obvious what is or is not included.

crm_mon now outputs "Active resources" header when --inactive flag is not used (instead of no header at all). Marking verified.
