Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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.

This idea arose on ML in relation to crm, but may be worth considering
for pcs nonetheless. See the bottom part of:
http://oss.clusterlabs.org/pipermail/users/2017-August/006226.html
Technicalities:
1. I suppose such journal of what (logical, not necessarily 1:1, see
below) pcs commands have been run would be dead-simple, local-only
(otherwise there's this common risk pcs would need to come up with
its own faul-tolerant cluster/peer network). However, to allow for
post-mortem entries correlation, there should be an extra field or two:
- the originator of the command (user/pcsd), so that, for instance,
a dedicated command (if any) can search back just through the real
user entries
- for the "execute-on-live-nodes in parallel", set an extra flag
so that the journals can be correlated more easily, just looking
at the entries like these
2. current accumulate-then-push method hides what really goes on when
chunked (and possibly interleaved with custom sed commands and other
out-of-band edits) and hence loses the continuity amongst the
commands, should it be somehow recoverable; alternative proposal
from [bug 1359057] would, on the other hand, allow for much more
solid expectation of what series of commands coupled together
tightly (there could even be a checksuming incorporated into
the "pipe protocol" to be 100% sure), hence these could be
put into journal as an atomic block (compound command comprising
particular pcs commands delimited with a pipe) at once, preserving
readibility and (importantly) the intention
User-facing commands to work with such a journal can be added at later
stage, when it's clear what exactly would make sense. I am currently
thinking more in the manual investigation intentions.
