[Bug 1821380] [NEW] HA-LVM can't parse vgchange_options with special characters

 

Public bug reported:

[Impact]
We can't manage LVM resources (e.g. through pcs) if the volume_list parameter has special characters


[Description]
The heartbeat/LVM script has the vgchange_options parameter that is used during LVM resource creation. The vgchange_options are set according to the /etc/lvm/lvm.conf file. If there are any special characters in the configuration, the heartbeat/LVM script will raise an error due to wrong configuration options.
This is fixed upstream by "3949641f2fc7 quote vgchange options", but the fix is not included in Xenial.

Upstream commit: https://github.com/ClusterLabs/resource-
agents/commit/3949641f2fc7

   resource-agents | 1:4.2.0-1ubuntu1             | disco           | source, amd64, ...


[Test Case]
1) Deploy a Xenial VM (e.g. through uvt-kvm or virt-install)
$ uvt-kvm create node1 release=xenial

2) Install pcs and resource-agents
root@node1:~# apt update && apt install pcs resource-agents -y

3) Enable HA-LVM
root@node1:~# lvmconf --enable-halvm --services --startstopservices

4) Add "volume_list" parameter to the activation section of /etc/lvm/lvm.conf
root@node1:~# grep "volume_list =" /etc/lvm/lvm.conf
        volume_list = ["node1-vg", "@tag1"]

5) Create LVM vg/lv (we use a file-backed loop device for the vg)
root@node1:~# vgcreate vg01 /dev/loop0 --addtag tag1
root@node1:~# lvcreate vg01 --addtag tag1 -L1G

6) Create an LVM resource with pcs
root@node1:~# pcs resource create vg01 LVM volgrpname=vg01 exclusive=true --group Resource

7) Verify that LVM resource was created correctly
root@node1:~# pcs resource debug-start vg01
Error performing operation: No such file or directory
Operation start for vg01 (ocf:heartbeat:LVM) returned 2
 >  stdout: volume_list=["node1-vg","@tag1"]
 >  stderr: /usr/lib/ocf/resource.d/heartbeat/LVM: 415: local: --config: bad variable name

If we apply the upstream patch, the resource works as expected:
root@node1:~# pcs resource debug-start vg01
Operation start for vg01 (ocf:heartbeat:LVM) returned 0
 >  stdout: volume_list=["node1-vg","@tag1"]
 >  stdout:   Volume group "vg01" successfully changed
 >  stdout:   Volume group "vg01" successfully changed
 >  stdout: volume_list=["node1-vg","@tag1"]
 >  stderr: INFO: Activating volume group vg01
 >  stderr: INFO: Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while... Found volume group "vg01" using metadata type lvm2
 >  stderr: INFO: Stripping tag, tag1
 >  stderr: INFO: New tag "pacemaker" added to vg01
 >  stderr: INFO: 1 logical volume(s) in volume group "vg01" now active
root@node1:~#


[Regression Potential]
Since this is an upstream patch and it only adds quotes to the vgchange options, we shouldn't hit any regressions due to this. Nonetheless, this fix will be tested with different configuration options and autopkgtests.
