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.

Description Ken Gaillot 2017-03-23 23:02:44 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1433016 +++

Pacemaker and pcs are adding enhanced support for Docker containers. There will be a completely new syntax that will need to be documented. The feature will likely be in Tech Preview for general use for 7.4, although it will be fully supported for use by our OpenStack installer.

There will be a new resource type (in addition to primitive, group, etc.) to define a "bundle", consisting of Docker settings, network settings, storage settings, and the service being containerized.

Details are still being ironed out; watch the parent bug for details.

Ken:

I'm looking at the 7.5 features to document, and I'm not sure where to take the issue of documenting bundles.  For 7.4, when this feature was in tech. preview, this is all that we said:
-------------

The pcs tool now manages bundle resources in Pacemaker

As a Technology Preview starting with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.4, the `pcs` tool supports bundle resources. You can now use the "pcs resource bundle create" and the "pcs resource bundle update" commands to create and modify a bundle. You can add a resource to an existing bundle with the "pcs resource create" command. For information on the parameters you can set for a `bundle` resource, run the "pcs resource bundle --help" command.
----------------

But maybe we should talk about this a little more, with an example?  This seems tied in to managing galera and rabbit so I'm not sure what we can or should document here.  This might perhaps be an article on the Portal?

Any thoughts on whether and what we need to document for 7.5, and whether that could be a chapter in the Reference or an article?

Is there existing documentation I should know about?

Comment 4 Ken Gaillot 2017-10-03 22:36:43 UTC
Bundles are tied to galera and rabbit only in the context of OpenStack. When we take this out of tech preview (which I believe will be 7.5), bundles can be used with any resource that can be put into a Docker container.

Upstream has this documentation for the equivalent of 7.4:

* http://clusterlabs.org/doc/en-US/Pacemaker/1.1-pcs/html-single/Pacemaker_Explained/index.html#s-resource-bundle

* https://wiki.clusterlabs.org/wiki/Bundle_Walk-Through


The upstream equivalent of 7.5 will have these changes:

* https://github.com/ClusterLabs/pacemaker/commit/3d7b32a586188024301acc7d2ac50649e299fe50

* https://github.com/ClusterLabs/pacemaker/commit/d7735f24316da16e52f3cd07876373d52baa42e2


However we could use a much simplified form of all that for RHEL. RHEL won't support rkt containers, so that can be left out. And of course we would document pcs commands rather than the raw XML.

Looking at the upstream walk-through, we'd have to replace the parts about where to find the docker package and which base image to use.

There's also a chance we could leave this tech preview for 7.5, in which case all this could be deferred.

Adding Mikey Ariel to the CC list for this BZ -- Mikey works on OpenStack HA docs which need to be coordinated with the documentation we'll be providing here.
