The etcd helper functions `etcdctl2` and `etcdctl3` were broken during the upgrade to 3.10. These scripts have been updated to work properly when etcd is running inside a static pod restoring normal function.

Comment 1 ge liu 2018-10-17 07:14:06 UTC
@sdodson, I found the 'etcdctl2'&'etcdctl3' still exists in 3.10, but 'etcdctl' doesn't work in 3.10, but in 3.11, it work as expected that 'etcdctl2&etcdctl3' deprecated, and etcdctl works well.

my 3.10 version:
openshift v3.10.57
kubernetes v1.10.0+b81c8f8

The two bash functions are etcdctl2 and etcdctl3 which specify flags for etcd v2 and v3 which are different. If those two commands work then that seems like what I'd expect. We've never deployed an alias for `etcdctl`.

Comment 3 ge liu 2018-10-23 06:01:45 UTC
@sdodson, It still ambiguous to me, and what i know is 'etcdctl' works in 3.11 at master server, but doesn't work in 310's master server, and this will bring some problems like below:

Etcd backup/restore:

we may use etcdctl3 to do etcd bakcup, then we remove etcd.yaml and rm -rf '/var/lib/etcd', then we try to do etcd restore, but etcdctl3 command is not work, so we can only reinstall etcdctl command tools to do etcd restore.

and compare to 3.11,

we do etcd backup with etcdctl command, then we remove etcd.yaml and rm -rf '/var/lib/etcd', and etcdctl command still work for etcd restore.

so the difference between 310 and 311 will bring problems to us.

Fixed in openshift-ansible-3.10.36-1

Fail to verify on:
oc v3.10.79
kubernetes v1.10.0+b81c8f8
features: Basic-Auth GSSAPI Kerberos SPNEGO

# etcdctl
bash: etcdctl: command not found

Comment 6 Scott Dodson 2018-11-21 03:13:27 UTC
Only etcdctl2 and etcdctl3 bash functions are expected to work. These will execute insider the pod.

Comment 7 ge liu 2018-11-21 04:09:38 UTC
@sdodson, regarding to Comment 5, if etcdctl only work inside pod, the etcd restore process could not be executed because etcd pod be destroyed. Is it work as design?

[root@qe-geliu310master-etcd-1 master]# etcdctl3
Component etcd is stopped or not running
[root@qe-geliu310master-etcd-1 master]# etcdctl
bash: etcdctl: command not found
[root@qe-geliu310master-etcd-1 master]#

Comment 8 Scott Dodson 2018-11-26 19:50:41 UTC
I've not kept up with the latest on the restore process. These commands will definitely fail if the etcd pod is not running or otherwise crash looping. I'm not sure what we can do about that.

Comment 9 ge liu 2018-11-27 03:21:39 UTC
As my personal feeling, 3.11's design is make sense, could it possible do same with 3.11?

Comment 10 ge liu 2018-12-05 02:03:08 UTC
