Fixes: #4578
Prior to this fix if there was an error binding to ports for the DNS servers the error would be swallowed by the gated log writer and never output. This fix propagates the DNS server errors back to the shell with a multierror.
* Implementation of Weights Data structures
Adding this datastructure will allow us to resolve the
issues #1088 and #4198
This new structure defaults to values:
```
{ Passing: 1, Warning: 0 }
```
Which means, use weight of 0 for a Service in Warning State
while use Weight 1 for a Healthy Service.
Thus it remains compatible with previous Consul versions.
* Implemented weights for DNS SRV Records
* DNS properly support agents with weight support while server does not (backwards compatibility)
* Use Warning value of Weights of 1 by default
When using DNS interface with only_passing = false, all nodes
with non-Critical healthcheck used to have a weight value of 1.
While having weight.Warning = 0 as default value, this is probably
a bad idea as it breaks ascending compatibility.
Thus, we put a default value of 1 to be consistent with existing behaviour.
* Added documentation for new weight field in service description
* Better documentation about weights as suggested by @banks
* Return weight = 1 for unknown Check states as suggested by @banks
* Fixed typo (of -> or) in error message as requested by @mkeeler
* Fixed unstable unit test TestRetryJoin
* Fixed unstable tests
* Fixed wrong Fatalf format in `testrpc/wait.go`
* Added notes regarding DNS SRV lookup limitations regarding number of instances
* Documentation fixes and clarification regarding SRV records with weights as requested by @banks
* Rephrase docs
* Adds XL machine spec and notes on large deployments
* Clarifies machine sizes
* Fixes internal links within the document
* Moves datacenter size guidelines to "Single Datacenter" section
* Added log-file flag to capture Consul logs in a user specified file
* Refactored code.
* Refactored code. Added flags to rotate logs based on bytes and duration
* Added the flags for log file and log rotation on the webpage
* Fixed TestSantize from failing due to the addition of 3 flags
* Introduced changes : mutex, data-dir log writes, rotation logic
* Added test for logfile and updated the default log destination for docs
* Log name now uses UnixNano
* TestLogFile is now uses t.Parallel()
* Removed unnecessary int64Val function
* Updated docs to reflect default log name for log-file
* No longer writes to data-dir and adds .log if the filename has no extension
By default, the Consul agent listens on the local interface
at port 8500 for API requests. This change makes the API examples
using `curl` copy-pasteable for this default configuration.
* updates docs for agent options
trying to add a little more clarity to suggestion that folks should use
port 8302 for both LAN and WAN comms
* website: clarify language for serf wan port behavior
* New Providers added and updated vendoring for go-discover
* Vendor.json formatted using make vendorfmt
* Docs/Agent/auto-join: Added documentation for the new providers introduced in this PR
* Updated the golang.org/x/sys/unix in the vendor directory
* Agent: TestGoDiscoverRegistration updated to reflect the addition of new providers
* Deleted terraform.tfstate from vendor.
* Deleted terraform.tfstate.backup
Deleted terraform state file artifacts from unknown runs.
* Updated x/sys/windows vendor for Windows binary compilation
* Added explainations on how having a working configuration for Prometheus
Since Prometheus escapes by default query parameters, this paragraph explains
how having `format=prometheus` to be taken into account by prometheus.
* Rephrase Prometheus notes in documentation as requested by @pearkes
The floating paragraph seems to need additional indentation to work correctly on the markdown parser middle man uses - GitHub got it right before in the preview but the website broke dumping the new config option inline.
Previous version of the documentation didn't mention this, which can
lead to confusion when experimenting with Connect. Many other features
of Consul work fine without `-dev` mode, but Connect needs certs in
order to proxy, which must be done with this flag or by generating certs
directly and passing them to Consul in configs.
I was going to the public feedback on Connect-Native app integration and came across [this](https://twitter.com/relistan/status/1012263110403555329) thread. Added a few statements in the Connect-Native app integration page.
* update encryption doc and add guide for creating certificates in consul with cfssl
* add details about CLI and disabling HTTP
* delete $ symbols and add guide elements
* add missing periods and steps heading
No target for `$ make bootstrap` currently exists. If building from source you have to run `$ make` and then `$ make dev` to install one of the built binaries that is appropriate for your system.
Previously, the documentation linked to Golang's source code, which
can drift from the list of cipher suites supported by Consul. Consul
has a hard-coded mapping of string values to Golang cipher suites, so
this is a more direct source of truth to help users understand which
string values are accepted in the `tls_cipher_suites` configuration
value.
This avoids a conflict with #datacenter later on the page. We're mixing
histroic manually specified anchors with generated anchors (via
redcarpet / middleman-hashicorp) so we have to manually override the
automatic generation here.
I was tempted to rewrite the old manual anchors to use the automatic
generation, but there is no way to maintain backwards compatibility,
so will leave that for a time when it is appropriate for us to break
links (or redirect them, etc).
Fixes#3916
These was spotted in issue #3709.
These two configuration elements were renamed "serf_lan" and "serf_wan" in commit 12216583a1
Update documentation to fit the new code.
Note that flags "-serf-lan-bind" and "-serf-wan-bind" were not renamed.
* config: refactor ReadPath(s) methods without side-effects
Return the sources instead of modifying the state.
* config: clean data dir before every test
* config: add tests for config-file and config-dir
* config: add -config-format option
Starting with Consul 1.0 all config files must have a '.json' or '.hcl'
extension to make it unambigous how the data should be parsed. Some
automation tools generate temporary files by appending a random string
to the generated file which obfuscates the extension and prevents the
file type detection.
This patch adds a -config-format option which can be used to override
the auto-detection behavior by forcing all config files or all files
within a config directory independent of their extension to be
interpreted as of this format.
Fixes#3620
DNS recursors can be added through go-sockaddr templates. Entries
are deduplicated while the order is maintained.
Originally proposed by @taylorchu
See #2932
* Kill check processes after the timeout is reached
Kill the subprocess spawned by a script check once the timeout is reached. Previously Consul just marked the check critical and left the subprocess around.
Fixes#3565.
* Set err to non-nil when timeout occurs
* Fix check timeout test
* Kill entire process subtree on check timeout
* Add a docs note about windows subprocess termination
* agent: add option to discard health output
In high volatile environments consul will have checks with "noisy"
output which changes every time even though the status does not change.
Since the output is stored in the raft log every health check update
unblocks a blocking call on health checks since the raft index has
changed even though the status of the health checks may not have changed
at all. By discarding the output of the health checks the users can
choose a different tradeoff. Less visibility on why a check failed in
exchange for a reduced change rate on the raft log.
* agent: discard output also when adding a check
* agent: add test for discard check output
* agent: update docs
* go vet
* Adds discard_check_output to reloadable config table.
* Updates the change log.
* doc: document discrepancy between id and CheckID
* doc: document enable_tag_override change
* config: add TranslateKeys helper
TranslateKeys makes it easier to map between different representations
of internal structures. It allows to recursively map alias keys to
canonical keys in structured maps.
* config: use TranslateKeys for config file
This also adds support for 'enabletagoverride' and removes
the need for a separate CheckID alias field.
* config: remove dead code
* agent: use TranslateKeys for FixupCheckType
* agent: translate enable_tag_override during service registration
* doc: add '.hcl' as valid extension
* config: map ScriptArgs to args
* config: add comment for TranslateKeys
* Adds client-side retry for no leader errors.
This paves over the case where the client was connected to the leader
when it loses leadership.
* Adds a configurable server RPC drain time and a fail-fast path for RPCs.
When a server leaves it gets removed from the Raft configuration, so it will
never know who the new leader server ends up being. Without this we'd be
doomed to wait out the RPC hold timeout and then fail. This makes things fail
a little quicker while a sever is draining, and since we added a client retry
AND since the server doing this has already shut down and left the Serf LAN,
clients should retry against some other server.
* Makes the RPC hold timeout configurable.
* Reorders struct members.
* Sets the RPC hold timeout default for test servers.
* Bumps the leave drain time up to 5 seconds.
* Robustifies retries with a simpler client-side RPC hold.
* Reverts untended delete.
* Clean up handling of subprocesses and make using a shell optional
* Update docs for subprocess changes
* Fix tests for new subprocess behavior
* More cleanup of subprocesses
* Minor adjustments and cleanup for subprocess logic
* Makes the watch handler reload test use the new path.
* Adds check tests for new args path, and updates existing tests to use new path.
* Adds support for script args in Docker checks.
* Fixes the sanitize unit test.
* Adds panic for unknown watch type, and reverts back to Run().
* Adds shell option back to consul lock command.
* Adds shell option back to consul exec command.
* Adds shell back into consul watch command.
* Refactors signal forwarding and makes Windows-friendly.
* Adds a clarifying comment.
* Changes error wording to a warning.
* Scopes signals to interrupt and kill.
This avoids us trying to send SIGCHILD to the dead process.
* Adds an error for shell=false for consul exec.
* Adds notes about the deprecated script and handler fields.
* De-nests an if statement.
* Cleans up information about file extensions, now that they are required.
* Removes references to deprecated configuration options.
* Adds docs for multiple bind address support.
* metrics: replace statsite_prefix with service_prefix
The metrics prefix isn't statsite specific and is in fact used
for all metrics providers. Since we are deprecating fields
anyway we should fix this one as well.
Fixes#3293
* Updates docs and sorts telemetry section.
* Renames to "metrics_prefix" to disambiguate with Consul services.
* Updates the change log.
* Changes default Raft protocol to 3.
* Changes numPeers() to report only voters.
This should have been there before, but it's more obvious that this
is incorrect now that we default the Raft protocol to 3, which puts
new servers in a read-only state while Autopilot waits for them to
become healthy.
* Fixes TestLeader_RollRaftServer.
* Fixes TestOperator_RaftRemovePeerByAddress.
* Fixes TestServer_*.
Relaxed the check for a given number of voter peers and instead do
a thorough check that all servers see each other in their Raft
configurations.
* Fixes TestACL_*.
These now just check for Raft replication to be set up, and don't
care about the number of voter peers.
* Fixes TestOperator_Raft_ListPeers.
* Fixes TestAutopilot_CleanupDeadServerPeriodic.
* Fixes TestCatalog_ListNodes_ConsistentRead_Fail.
* Fixes TestLeader_ChangeServerID and adjusts the conn pool to throw away
sockets when it sees io.EOF.
* Changes version to 1.0.0 in the options doc.
* Makes metrics test more deterministic with autopilot metrics possible.
* new config parser for agent
This patch implements a new config parser for the consul agent which
makes the following changes to the previous implementation:
* add HCL support
* all configuration fragments in tests and for default config are
expressed as HCL fragments
* HCL fragments can be provided on the command line so that they
can eventually replace the command line flags.
* HCL/JSON fragments are parsed into a temporary Config structure
which can be merged using reflection (all values are pointers).
The existing merge logic of overwrite for values and append
for slices has been preserved.
* A single builder process generates a typed runtime configuration
for the agent.
The new implementation is more strict and fails in the builder process
if no valid runtime configuration can be generated. Therefore,
additional validations in other parts of the code should be removed.
The builder also pre-computes all required network addresses so that no
address/port magic should be required where the configuration is used
and should therefore be removed.
* Upgrade github.com/hashicorp/hcl to support int64
* improve error messages
* fix directory permission test
* Fix rtt test
* Fix ForceLeave test
* Skip performance test for now until we know what to do

* Adds unit tests for the RPC rate limiter.
* Groups the RPC limit parameters under "limits" in the config.
* Adds some documentation about the RPC limiter.
* Sends a 429 response when the rate limiter kicks in.
* Adds docs for new telemetry.
* Makes snapshot telemetry look like RPC telemetry and cleans up comments.
* Exit 2 if -child-exit-code and the child returned with an error.
* There is no platform independent way to check the exact return code of
* the child, so on error always return 2.
