Description SATHEESARAN 2020-03-11 00:26:56 UTC
Description of problem:
-----------------------
Its a prerequisite to have the root filesystem encrypted ( disk partition containing the root filesystem to be encrypted ). But in some non-regular workflows, customers may try to run the procedure without having the root filesystem encrypted. In those cases, the ansible playbook should care to check whether the root filesystem is encrypted.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
-------------------------------------------------------------
gluster-ansible-infra-1.0.4-5.el8rhgs.noarch.rpm 

How reproducible:
-----------------
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
-------------------
1. Install RHVH 4.4 without encrypting the root filesystem disk
2. Complete the installation and reboot
3. Run the playbook to setup NBDE for root filesystem disk and other additional disks

Actual results:
---------------
No check was made, it fails when binding to tang server

Expected results:
-----------------
Precheck should be made well before doing any steps for NBDE

Additional info:
----------------
The following command is useful to know whether the partition is encrypted
# cryptsetup isLuks <root-filesystem-disk> 

Example:
--------
In this case, 
/dev/sda2 is encrypted.
/dev/sdb is not encrypted

[root@ ]# cryptsetup isLuks /dev/sda2
[root@ ]# echo $?
0
[root@ ]# cryptsetup isLuks /dev/sdb
[root@ ]# echo $?
1

non-zero value is returned, if its not an encrypted disk

Comment 3 SATHEESARAN 2020-03-21 11:00:32 UTC
Verified with gluster-ansible-infra-1.0.4-6

Precheck is done to make sure that the root disk with root filesystem is LUKS encrypted
