411 with files that end in .conf

[Philip Papadopoulos]

@TimCarlson

I believe this should mitigate/fix the issue you were seeing.

https://github.com/rocksclusters/base/commit/f78cc4844f7a43a6af03478f4397f6e5713abb2f

You can grab the latest  base roll for beta7.rocksclusters.org

add it with rocks add roll

recreate the distro

then on any node where you want the update:

yum clean all

yum -y reinstall rocks-411

I'm wondering if an sssd problem I've encountered is a 411 issue. I've already applied the 411 fix, but the problem persists.

In the post-installation section of my extend-compute.xml file sssd gets enabled ...

/usr/sbin/authconfig --enablesssd --enablesssdauth --update

... but following the automatic reboot, sssd.service fails to start, complaining that "sssd.conf does not exist": 

[root@a32 ~]# systemctl status sssd

* sssd.service - System Security Services Daemon

   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/sssd.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)

  Drop-In: /etc/systemd/system/sssd.service.d

           `-journal.conf

   Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Fri 2017-10-06 11:42:08 PDT; 24min ago

 Main PID: 859 (code=exited, status=4)

Oct 06 11:42:07 a32.local systemd[1]: Starting System Security Services Daemon...

Oct 06 11:42:08 a32.local sssd[859]: Configuration file: /etc/sssd/sssd.conf does not exist.

Oct 06 11:42:08 a32.local systemd[1]: sssd.service: main process exited, code=exited, status=4/NOPERMISSION

Oct 06 11:42:08 a32.local systemd[1]: Failed to start System Security Services Daemon.

Oct 06 11:42:08 a32.local systemd[1]: Unit sssd.service entered failed state.

Oct 06 11:42:08 a32.local systemd[1]: sssd.service failed.

The file is getting pushed to the node via 411 as desired, and the timestamp matches that of the sssd startup error:

[root@a32 ~]# ls -al /etc/sssd/sssd.conf

-rw------- 1 root root 913 Oct  6 11:42 /etc/sssd/sssd.conf

Any idea what might be going wrong?

[Philip Papadopoulos]

Probably startup ordering issue.

My guess is that sssd is starting before 411 gets the configuration file.

Does the file have the correct contents?

What happens if you start the sssd service manually (now that its conf file is there)

Yes, the file has the correct contents and a manual startup of sssd
service works fine at that point.

And blaming start-up order would make sense, assuming the ls
'--full-time' flag is reporting file-creation time (~30 seconds after
the sssd-startup attempt) here:

[root@a32 ~]# ls -al --full-time /etc/sssd/sssd.conf
-rw------- 1 root root 913 2017-10-06 11:42:44.003092000 -0700
/etc/sssd/sssd.conf
