Red Hat Openstack - Redis wont restart after installing splunk forwarder
Issue
-
After installing splunk forwarder on Openstack controllers, redis-bundle will fail to restart.
-
Splunk enables extended ACLs in /var. This alters how permissions are set for new directories in /var/log/pacemaker/bundles/.
Before splunk (mode: 0771)
# ls -ltd /var/log/pacemaker/bundles/redis-bundle-0
drwxrwx--x. 3 root root 34 Feb 28 15:27 /var/log/pacemaker/bundles/redis-bundle-0
After splunk (mode: 0770):
# ls -ltd /var/log/pacemaker/bundles/redis-bundle-0
drwxrwx---+ 3 root root 34 Feb 28 15:27 /var/log/pacemaker/bundles/redis-bundle-0
This prevents Redis from starting due to missing execute permission for other.
