Kyle Havlovitz 8e621eb9c8 Set MaxStale default to 10 years and add a stale counter (#2481)
Default MaxStale to 10 years and add a counter at `consul.dns.stale_queries` that tracks when an agent serves a query that's stale by at least 5 seconds. Previously, MaxStale defaulted to 5 seconds and DNS would become unavailable after a short period of time with no leader. This new default allows DNS requests to still be served in the event of a long outage.

Fixes #2460.

Kyle Havlovitz 3be132863f Enable snapshots in dev mode (#2453) 2016-10-31 14:39:47 -04:00
James Phillips c01a3871c9 Adds support for snapshots and restores. (#2396)
* Updates Raft library to get new snapshot/restore API.

* Basic backup and restore working, but need some cleanup.

* Breaks out a snapshot module and adds a SHA256 integrity check.

* Adds snapshot ACL and fills in some missing comments.

* Require a consistent read for snapshots.

* Make sure snapshot works if ACLs aren't enabled.

* Adds a bit of package documentation.

* Returns an empty response from restore to avoid EOF errors.

* Adds API client support for snapshots.

* Makes internal file names match on-disk file snapshots.

* Adds DC and token coverage for snapshot API test.

* Adds missing documentation.

* Adds a unit test for the snapshot client endpoint.

* Moves the connection pool out of the client for easier testing.

* Fixes an incidental issue in the prepared query unit test.

I realized I had two servers in bootstrap mode so this wasn't a good setup.

* Adds a half close to the TCP stream and fixes panic on error.

* Adds client and endpoint tests for snapshots.

* Moves the pool back into the snapshot RPC client.

* Adds a TLS test and fixes half-closes for TLS connections.

* Tweaks some comments.

* Adds a low-level snapshot test.

This is independent of Consul so we can pull this out into a library
later if we want to.

* Cleans up snapshot and archive and completes archive tests.

* Sends a clear error for snapshot operations in dev mode.

Snapshots require the Raft snapshots to be readable, which isn't supported
in dev mode. Send a clear error instead of a deep-down Raft one.

* Adds docs for the snapshot endpoint.

* Adds a stale mode and index feedback for snapshot saves.

This gives folks a way to extract data even if the cluster has no
leader.

* Changes the internal format of a snapshot from zip to tgz.

* Pulls in Raft fix to cancel inflight before a restore.

* Pulls in new Raft restore interface.

* Adds metadata to snapshot saves and a verify function.

* Adds basic save and restore snapshot CLI commands.

* Gets rid of tarball extensions and adds restore message.

* Fixes an incidental bad link in the KV docs.

* Adds documentation for the snapshot CLI commands.

* Scuttle any request body when a snapshot is saved.

* Fixes archive unit test error message check.

* Allows for nil output writers in snapshot RPC handlers.

* Renames hash list Decode to DecodeAndVerify.

* Closes the client connection for snapshot ops.

* Lowers timeout for restore ops.

* Updates Raft vendor to get new Restore signature and integrates with Consul.

* Bounces the leader's internal state when we do a restore.

Sean Kilgore edc31a9391 docs: clarify address specification for telemetry
Earlier on this page, under `addresses`, we say "For TCP addresses, these should simply be an IP address without the port. For example: 10.0.0.1, not 10.0.0.1:8500." Since we expect the port to be included for `_address` for telemetry, call it out specifically.
