Description Jiri Podivin 2021-08-11 15:07:08 UTC
Description of problem:

The undercloud-debug validation reports whether or not are certain services configured to run in a debug mode.
To this end it uses custom configuration value retrieval module, implemented in the validations-common package.
 

Due to the way the validation and module are implemented, there are number of failure modes, of various likelihood,
which can be cause for a substantial confusion for the customer. As evidenced by one issue already reported [0].

Therefore the validation, as well as the module, have to be rewritten, to improve customer experience with the product.



How reproducible:
Always when running undercloud-debug validation without properly explicitly setting parameters.

Comment 2 Jiri Podivin 2021-09-13 09:05:41 UTC
The bug #1942508 has unfortunately delayed resolution. 
As the fixes to the dependencies have to be merged, before further patches to the validations_common repository can pass the check pipeline.

Comment 3 Jiri Podivin 2021-09-13 09:14:02 UTC
Looks like BZ interpreted the numerical code of the Launchpad bug as a BZ bug id.
The actual bug blocking the resolution is https://bugs.launchpad.net/tripleo/+bug/1942508

Comment 4 Jiri Podivin 2021-09-24 08:53:16 UTC
The documentation changes are waiting for reviews.
