Description Chris Jones 2017-03-22 05:21:28 EDT

Description of problem:

The automatic fencing feature forces the fencing agents to be configured with a specific action.

As per the recent investigations into Instance HA issues, this turns out to be a very bad choice and the action parameter should be optional.

Comment 1 Chris Jones 2017-03-22 05:23:09 EDT

Upstream patch is https://review.openstack.org/#/c/442497/ (master, ocata backport will be done after that lands).

Note: TripleO upstream CI has been experiencing a lot of issues in the last couple of weeks, which is holding up landing the fix for this bug.

Comment 2 Red Hat Bugzilla Rules Engine 2017-03-22 05:23:14 EDT

This bugzilla has been removed from the release and needs to be reviewed and Triaged for another Target Release.

Comment 4 Chris Jones 2017-03-29 10:52:36 EDT

The fix for this touches python-tripleoclient and tripleo-common. The patches for both have merged in master. The python-tripleoclient patch has also merged to stable/ocata. The tripleo-common has not yet merged to stable/ocata, but should do very shortly.
