Description Sofer Athlan-Guyot 2018-06-28 09:23:04 UTC
Hi,

following up on https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1477128.

We need to make sure that the user won't have curly brace in their password before starting the undercloud upgrade in FFWD.

To this end a shell block with a warning in the documentation that shows:
 - how to check the current value;
 - if broken:
   - fix it;
   - verify it works


It should be in a warning at the top of the undercloud upgrade section of the bz.

Suggested note:

If the fix for bug 1477126 is present on your OSP10 system, you should ensure that the undercloud user password was not modified to include a curly bracket as this may cause issues during the Fast-Forward Upgrade process.

You can check the current undercloud user password by grepping the stackrc file for OS_PASSWORD, or checking the OS_PASSWORD variable in your environment if you have already sourced the file.

$ grep OS_PASSWORD stackrc

or

$ env | grep OS_PASSWORD

If the password contains a curly bracket ({ or }) you should change the password before proceeding, using the following command:

$ openstack user set --password "<Your new password>" admin

Modify the stackrc file to use the new password and source it again. You can then run any 'openstack' command to ensure the new password was updated correctly.

$ vi stackrc
$ source stackrc
$ env | grep OS_PASSWORD
$ openstack project list

If the output is as expected, with the OS_PASSWORD value not containing curly brackets and the project list being displayed, you may proceed with the Fast-Forward Upgrade.

Hi,

so my understanding is that osp10 last version is fixed.  As such, no warning is required anymore and this can be closed.
