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 Reid Wahl 2018-02-10 07:52:58 UTC
Description of problem:
`fence_rhevm` requires `--ssl` option even when `--ssl-insecure` or `--ssl-secure` is present.

In `fence_vmware_soap` and `fence_cisco_ucs`, passing the `--ssl-secure` or `--ssl-insecure` option implies the `--ssl` option. If you pass `--ssl_insecure`, the URL is automatically prefixed with `https:`.

`fence_rhevm` does not work this way in the latest RHEL release of `fence-agents-rhevm`. In the `send_command()` function, `url` is set to `https:` if and only if the `--ssl` option is set. From `fence-agents-rhevm-4.0.11-84.el7.x86_64`:

~~~
def send_command(opt, command, method="GET"):
        ## setup correct URL
        if opt.has_key("--ssl"):
                url = "https:"
        else:
                url = "http:"
~~~

The `send_command()` function has been modified in the upstream Github repository in version 4.0.12 to accept any of `--ssl`, `--ssl-secure`, or `--ssl-insecure`, making its behavior more consistent with that of other fence agents.

~~~
def send_command(opt, command, method="GET"):
    ## setup correct URL
    if opt.has_key("--ssl") or opt.has_key("--ssl-secure") or opt.has_key("--ssl-insecure"):
        url = "https:"
    else:
        url = "http:"
~~~

The upstream change was committed in https://github.com/ClusterLabs/fence-agents/commit/14f6c3bc1e60e038c0b4daa87b1d0bda0d873661.
