Description Xingxing Xia 2017-08-30 09:30:39 UTC
Description of problem:
OCP v3.7 can be installed without service catalog enabled.
But fail to be installed if that enabled, due to policy change https://github.com/openshift/origin/pull/15021.
Current ansible installation of service catalog will fail with messages:
... "cmd": "oc get policybindings/kube-system:default -n kube-system ...
... the server doesn't have a resource type "policybindings"
...
fatal: [<host name>]: FAILED! => {
    "changed": true,
    "cmd": [
        "oc",
        "create",
        "policybinding",
        "kube-system",
        "-n",
        "kube-system"
    ]
... error: This command works only with server versions < 3.7.0, found v3.7.0-0.117.0


Now that the policy changes in v3.7, the ansible installation of service catalog should change accordingly too.
Bug is reported because it affects new features testing related to service catalog in v3.7

Version-Release number of the following components:
openshift v3.7.0-0.117.0
openshift-ansible-playbooks-3.7.0-0.117.0

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install v3.7 service catalog via ansible

Actual results:
1. It will fail as said above

Expected results:
1. Should succeed

Mo is this the same change we ported oc_* modules to accomodate? Can you advise on the proper new command?

Comment 2 David Eads 2017-08-30 12:42:15 UTC
On 3.7 or later, you should be creating RoleBinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io objects.  The RoleBinding.authorization.openshift.io will still work, but PolicyBinding is no longer required and shouldn't've been required later in 3.6 cycle.

Comment 3 Mo 2017-08-30 22:23:14 UTC
@Scott this is a duplicate of https://github.com/openshift/openshift-ansible/issues/4956

@David I opened https://github.com/openshift/openshift-ansible/issues/5275 since migrating openshift-ansible to use RBAC will require various modules to be updated.

Comment 4 Xingxing Xia 2017-08-31 06:22:40 UTC
Adding keyword "TestBlocker" because the env installation failure blocks the test of new user stories about service catalog, such as the Complete cards:
https://trello.com/c/Dk9IxmCH/
https://trello.com/c/UWgrj6bL/
https://trello.com/c/IlDIJAz2/

And other service catalog cards on board https://trello.com/b/nbkIrqKa/user-interface that are in "In Progress" list currently but would become "Complete" some time

Comment 6 Xingxing Xia 2017-09-27 08:08:23 UTC
Installed env via ansible with openshift v3.7.0-0.131.0 and openshift-ansible-3.7.0-0.128.0, the original issue in comment 0 is solved. openshift_enable_service_catalog set as true can successfully install service catalog env:
# oc get pod -n kube-service-catalog
NAME                       READY     STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
apiserver-xp1kk            1/1       Running   0          1h
controller-manager-wwdvm   1/1       Running   0          1h

From this point, moving bug to VERIFIED

Comment 7 Xingxing Xia 2017-09-27 08:13:47 UTC
But have a question, from https://github.com/openshift/openshift-ansible/pull/5226, default "ansible_service_broker_install: false" is seen. This makes ansible does not create ansible service broker by default for the env (and thus no serviceclasses).

Should it be better to make "ansible_service_broker_install" true by default?

Comment 8 ewolinet 2017-09-27 14:16:11 UTC
The choice to make the default false was due to the fact that we can also install the "template_service_broker". 

If we wanted to install just the TSB that would require that we set "ansible_service_broker_install" to false and "template_service_broker_install" to true.
