From Revision 3234 to 3215

Rev	Summary	Authors	Date
3234	[r=rvb,allenap][bug=1379641][author=jtv] Add parameter to ge... [r=rvb,allenap][bug=1379641][author=jtv] Add parameter to generation of Curtin network preseeds: netmasks. This is in support of non-64-bit IPv6 netmasks, but it also takes away an obstacle to static IPv4 configuration. The new parameter is not yet used, nor is it populated. I'm leaving that for separate branches because just the parameter-passing (esp. across RPC) generates so many boilerplate changes.	jtv at canonical	9 years ago
3233	[r=jason-hobbs][bug=1379649][author=rvb] Allow the 'releasin... [r=jason-hobbs][bug=1379649][author=rvb] Allow the 'releasing failed' -> 'disk erasing' transition. That's the state transition that needs to happen when the 'disk erasing' setting is set to true and a failed node is released again.	Raphael Badin	9 years ago
3232	[r=newell-jensen][bug=][author=allenap] Remove the old op=re... [r=newell-jensen][bug=][author=allenap] Remove the old op=register method of registering a new cluster. Registering a cluster has become part of the RPC handshake and so this is obsolete.	Gavin Panella	9 years ago
3231	[r=julian-edwards][bug=][author=allenap] In the region, upda... [r=julian-edwards][bug=][author=allenap] In the region, update the cluster's maas_url field from that provided in the Register RPC call. This replaces similar functionality in update_nodegroup_maas_url(), which is no longer used.	Gavin Panella	9 years ago
3230	[r=julian-edwards][bug=][author=allenap] Register cluster wi... [r=julian-edwards][bug=][author=allenap] Register cluster with the region once authenticated.	Gavin Panella	9 years ago
3229	[r=rvb][bug=1379591][author=jason-hobbs] When extracting net... [r=rvb][bug=1379591][author=jason-hobbs] When extracting network interfaces from lshw output, match any node that starts with 'network'. This matches lshw's format when there are multiple nodes as well as just one node.	Jason Hobbs	9 years ago
3228	[r=rvb,allenap][bug=1375970,1375980][author=gmb] Refactor ca... [r=rvb,allenap][bug=1375970,1375980][author=gmb] Refactor call sites of Node.objects.(start\|stop)_nodes() so that they: - Handle errors raised by those methods - Ensure that model changes are committed before power actions are sent (when starting nodes) and after power actions are sent (when stopping nodes). This avoids race conditions when carrying out actions in bulk. - When errors occur in start_nodes(), the callsites will explicitly roll the node back to a sane status (either its old status or a suitable FAILED status). - Re-raise those errors once they've finished with them - Don't change the state of the Node if an error occurred whilst starting or stopping it. This is a further fix for bug 1375980. I've also removed the check for len(nodes_(started\|stopped) > 0 in those methods that used it. This check made no sense; there are power types which we just can't power off (ether_wake, for example). If the check was left in place, the node would never come out of whatever state it was in, and would be stuck. I've added tests to check for the atomicity of the callsites, for their logging and re-raising of exceptions, too.	Graham Binns	9 years ago
3227	[r=gmb][bug=1375647][author=julian-edwards] Add capability [r=gmb][bug=1375647][author=julian-edwards] Add capability documentation for static IPs, and a separate section entirely explaining more about static IPs and the API.	Julian Edwards	9 years ago
3226	[r=gmb][bug=][author=allenap] Authenticate clusters when acc... [r=gmb][bug=][author=allenap] Authenticate clusters when accepting connections from them in the region.	Gavin Panella	9 years ago
3225	[r=gmb][bug=][author=allenap] Authenticate event-loops in th... [r=gmb][bug=][author=allenap] Authenticate event-loops in the region when establishing connections from the cluster.	Gavin Panella	9 years ago
3224	[r=blake-rouse,gmb][bug=1376888][author=newell-jensen] Updat... [r=blake-rouse,gmb][bug=1376888][author=newell-jensen] Updated Node's delete method so that it will only delete host maps for macs from managed interfaces. This will now allow a user to delete nodes with an unmanaged interface that were previously enlisted into MAAS with a managed interface.	Newell Jensen	9 years ago
3223	[r=gmb][bug=][author=allenap] Command-line tool to check if ... [r=gmb][bug=][author=allenap] Command-line tool to check if a shared-secret has been installed onto a cluster.	Gavin Panella	9 years ago
3222	[r=jtv][bug=][author=allenap] Command-line tool to install a... [r=jtv][bug=][author=allenap] Command-line tool to install a shared-secret onto a cluster.	Gavin Panella	9 years ago
3221	[r=jtv][bug=][author=allenap] New RPC call, Register. [r=jtv][bug=][author=allenap] New RPC call, Register. This is part of a new, documented, 3-step cluster bootstrap/bring-up procedure.	Gavin Panella	9 years ago
3220	[r=rvb][bug=1379209][author=jason-hobbs] Ask curtin to only ... [r=rvb][bug=1379209][author=jason-hobbs] Ask curtin to only bring up the PXE MAC interface by default.	Jason Hobbs	9 years ago
3219	[r=rvb][bug=1379209][author=jason-hobbs] Modify [r=rvb][bug=1379209][author=jason-hobbs] Modify claim_static_ip_addresses() to only claim IP addresses for the node's pxe_mac interface. This will stop nodes from being assigned static IP addresses for each interface on a managed network.	Jason Hobbs	9 years ago
3218	[r=julian-edwards][bug=][author=allenap] Use pg_advisory_xac... [r=julian-edwards][bug=][author=allenap] Use pg_advisory_xact_lock in preference to pg_advisory_lock. The latter, when used by DatabaseLock, releases the lock before database updates are committed. This is fine for managing access to an external resource, but not for most of the existing uses in MAAS.	Gavin Panella	9 years ago
3217	[r=julian-edwards][bug=][author=allenap] New helper method, [r=julian-edwards][bug=][author=allenap] New helper method, TwistedLoggerFixture.containsError(), to help reduce test fragility.	Gavin Panella	9 years ago
3216	[r=rvb,gmb][bug=][author=jason-hobbs] Add Node.get_pxe_mac()... [r=rvb,gmb][bug=][author=jason-hobbs] Add Node.get_pxe_mac(). This will be used for picking which MAC to create a static IP assignment for, when starting a node.	Jason Hobbs	9 years ago
3215	[r=rvb,jtv][bug=1379209][author=jason-hobbs] Populate Node.p... [r=rvb,jtv][bug=1379209][author=jason-hobbs] Populate Node.pxe_mac when handling a pxeconfig API call.	Jason Hobbs	9 years ago
