This patch migrates all of the remaining non-unique variable names in the security role to a pattern that begins with `security_*`. This will reduce potential variable collisions with other roles. This is a breaking change for deployers and users who are moving from the liberty or stable/mitaka branches to master. Release notes are included with additional details to help with the transition.

Ubuntu's default for security_disk_full_action
is
SUSPEND
, which actually only suspends audit logging. That
could be a security issue, so SYSLOG
is recommended and is
set by default by openstack-ansible-security. If syslog messages are
being sent to remote servers, these log messages should alert an
administrator about the disk being full. There are additional options
available, like EXEC
, SINGLE
or
HALT
.
To configure a different security_disk_full_action
, set
the following Ansible variable:
security_disk_full_action: SYSLOG
For details on available settings and what they do, run
man auditd.conf
. Some options can cause the host to go
offline until the issue is fixed. Deployers are urged to
carefully read the auditd documentation prior to
changing the security_disk_full_action
setting from the
default.
