Description Michal Pryc 2016-11-16 15:31:56 UTC
Description of problem:

Documentation in the following section (possibly for other rhos releases as well) is incorrect:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/red-hat-openstack-platform/9/single/director-installation-and-usage/#sect-Migrating_VMs_from_an_Overcloud_Compute_Node

It says:

"
Log into each Compute node as the nova user and run the following script to set up the keys:
"

and then in the code snippet:

"
# enable login for nova user on compute hosts:
usermod -s /bin/bash nova
"

So it's logically not correct to ask for login to the system where nova user has disabled account and THEN enable login for nova user.

The instructions should first ask to enable login for nova user (as root user on the overcloud) and THEN continue with login and SSH keys setup.

Hi Michael,

I'm going to close this BZ as a duplicate of BZ#1403313. I've added you as a CC to that bug too so you can track progress.

Essentially, I'm going to revamp that procedure/script, which should take care of concerns from both this BZ and BZ#1403313.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1403313 ***
