Cluster root enable

This spec is intended to add root enable support for clusters.

Launchpad blueprint:

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/trove/+spec/vertica-cluster-user-features

Problem Description

Trove's cluster API currently does not support root enable.

Proposed Change

Add support for root-enable for clusters, with optional user-provided passwords. User supplied passwords are necessary to create a good user experience in Horizon where enabling a root user should allow user input rather than requiring the user to wait for a password to popup on a response dialog.

Configuration

None

Database

None

Public API

This change will add a new /clusters/<cluster_id>/root resource which is similar to the /root resource on instances with the addition of an optional password.

Request:

{
  "password": "secretsecret"
}
  • POST /v1.0/[account-id]/clusters/<cluster_id>/root

Response:

{
  "username": "root",
  "password": "secretsecret"
}
  • GET /v1.0/<tenant_id>/clusters/<cluster_id>/root
  • DELETE /v1.0/<tenant_id>/clusters/<cluster_id>/root

Public API Security

The security of this API will be handled in the same manner as existing implementations.

Python API

None

CLI (python-troveclient)

New cluster-root-enable and cluster-root-show commands will be added

Changes will effect:

troveclient/v1/root.py troveclient/v1/shell.py troveclient/v1/clusters.py

Internal API

Root enablement support should be added for clusters. Changes include:

trove/extensions/routes/mysql.py trove/extensions/mysql/service.py trove/extensions/mysql/models.py trove/guestagent/api.py

Guest Agent

The guestagent API will get a new enable_root(self, password) function which allows optionally provided passwords to be supplied to a guest agent. This function will be in addition to the existing function, allowing for backwards compatibility with existing images.

Additionally, each guest agent datastore impl will need to implement the enable_root(password) function.

Work Items

  • API changes
  • Guest agent changes
  • CLI changes
  • Internal API changes

Upgrade Implications

None

Dependencies

None

Testing

New unit and scenario tests will be added to assert that root enablement works as expected at the cluster level

Documentation Impact

The API changes to the clusters resource and the addition of the new cluster root resource need to be documented.
