Hello, Per bug#916095, discussion at[1] and other uses, it would be great if we have offline vdsm tool for tasks that do not require vdsm to be configured nor up. Examples: 1. get vdsm id (bug#916095) engine may use utility to return vdsm id, without duplicate the logic into the engine. 2. libvirt reconfigure remove the logic from the init script which is not supported by systemd into common place. 3. certificate issue sequence [FUTURE] ability to issue a certificate, perform the request accept the chain in a user friendly manner (and program friendly), this will enable host-deploy to perform enrollment without depend on the artifacts locations. 4. stop/start [FUTURE] stop/start the entire component. handy when there are several services around. Thanks! [1] http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/14402/
according to tracker, patch is merged. moving to MODIFIED.
*** Bug 978906 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
1) libvirt-configure part is not merged - why is it on_qa ? 2) missing libvirt-configure usage in help 3) missing service-like usage in help 4) missing vdsm-id usage in help
1) still in progress. 2) its part of the patch that hasn't been merged yet. 3,4) "vdsm-id: Printing host uuid" -> that's what it does, if its lack of more information, let me know what do you think we should add? and the service like is quite informative: service-disable Disable a system service service-is-managed Check the existence of a service service-reload Notify a system service to reload configurations service-restart Restart a system service service-start Start a system service service-status Get status of a system service service-stop Stop a system service
Also when run command vdsm-tool service-restart vdsmd for example, not any information messages appear
If I need to verify for sections 3 and 4(id and services) or wait until libvirt-configure part?
http://gerrit.ovirt.org/15216 with libvirt-configure is in.
Verified on is7 vdsm-tool vdsm-id return host id vdsm-tool service-* not return any information message and return traceback instead of user friendly message, but work fine checking via service status example of return vdsm-tool service-stop vdsm 1 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/vdsm-tool", line 143, in <module> sys.exit(main()) File "/usr/bin/vdsm-tool", line 140, in main return tool_command[cmd]["command"](*args[1:]) TypeError: service_stop() takes exactly 1 argument (2 given)
