The subscription-manager
Would Incorrectly Report that the ceph-osd
Package was Still Installed
Previously, when removing the ceph-osd
package from the overcloud nodes, the corresponding Ceph product key was not removed. Therefore, the subscription-manager
would incorrectly report that the ceph-osd
package was still installed. The script that handles the removing of the ceph-osd
package now also removes the corresponding Ceph product key. The script that removes the ceph-osd
package and product key executes only during the overcloud update procedure. As a result, subscription-manager list
no longer reports the Ceph OSD as is installed.
(BZ#1500594)
Updated the ceph-disk
Unit Files
Previously, the transition to containerized Ceph left some "ceph-disk" unit files. The files were harmless, but appeared as failing, which could be distressing to the operator. With this update, executing the "switch-from-non-containerized-to-containerized-ceph-daemons.yml" playbook disables the "ceph-disk" unit files too.
