Description of problem: Usage of "include" statements in keepalived.conf either does not work or is silently ignored / unsupported. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): keepalived-1.2.13-7.el7.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. add include statement in keepalived.conf 2. keepalived starts and does not report errors 3. Actual results: information in the include file is ignored Expected results: A) information in include file is included or B) a warning / error that "include" is unknown Additional info: I tested with keepalived-1.2.22-1.el7.x86_64.rpm from r2d2.marmotte.net and the include statement works properly. Sadly, I am having other issues with that version, so I can't just start using it :( thank you!
Uffties, I spoke too soon :(, so the silent failure here is when the conf path is double quoted. include "/etc/keepalived/bah.conf" <-- silently fails include /etc/keepalived/bah.conf <-- works as expected. Up to you folks if you think this is a bug or not :/
After evaluating this issue, there are no plans to address it further or fix it in an upcoming release. Therefore, it is being closed. If plans change such that this issue will be fixed in an upcoming release, then the bug can be reopened.
