Keep/Remove Python dependent package: nfs-utils #121

sinnykumari · 2019-01-17T07:10:18Z

FCOS community members are trying not to ship Python in base system. In ticket #92, we have identified list of Python dependent packages which are currently installed in FCOS.

This ticket is to investigate that do we really need nfs-utils in FCOS base system? If yes, how can we provide nfs-utils or equivalent functionalities without shipping Python.

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

nfs-utils-2.3.3-1.rc1.fc29.x86_64 contains two Python scripts: /usr/sbin/mountstats and /usr/sbin/nfsiostat. Perhaps they could be broken out into a subpackage.

sinnykumari · 2019-01-18T14:24:30Z

@bgilbert Would be interested in filing a RFE bug against nfs-utils package?

bgilbert · 2019-01-18T21:16:19Z

@sinnykumari You probably shouldn't wait for me. 🙂

sinnykumari · 2019-01-21T10:54:52Z

RFE bug to make separate sub-package for Python utilities - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1667889

sinnykumari · 2019-02-04T14:12:05Z

Latest nfs-utils package available in F30 includes a Python script nfsconvert.py which is required to convert deprecated sysconfig/nfs configuration into /etc/nfs.conf .
From the related nfs-utils bug, so far feasible option is to rewrite nfsconvert.py script into any compile language.
@dustymabe @cgwalters @bgilbert Have any better suggestion about bug ? I am not sure that it is feasible to ship FCOS without nfs-utils.

dustymabe · 2019-02-04T19:01:24Z

thanks @sinnykumari - we can talk about this in the next meeting.

dustymabe · 2019-02-07T14:49:21Z

We chatted about this in the community meeting yesterday and we decided to accept the proposal to make a nfs-utils-coreos package.

There are still conversations going on in the BZ exploring possibilities, but in general a new package is acceptable.

dustymabe · 2019-02-13T16:25:00Z

Update from BZ discussion:

The nfs team created a nfs-utils-coreos package for us that just contains the nfs client. My action item is to find out if FCOS needs to ship the server or is just the client OK?

Other open questions from the BZ:

if it is ok for FCOS to ship just the client would the package be
useful to anyone else other than FCOS? If so then maybe renaming it
to nfs-client-utils and splitting the server out to a separate package
as well would be useful so that other people may use it

dustymabe · 2019-02-13T17:41:02Z

Discussed in the meeting today.

We agreed on the following statement:

AGREED: we think shipping only the nfs client will suffice
    considering users can run nfs server in a container

dustymabe · 2019-02-20T17:47:50Z

FYI f30 and f31 rpm builds with nfs-utils-coreos rpm in them:

@dustymabe , the predecessor of FCOS has NFS server included :/ Does anyone know a "stable" NFS-server container for FCOS?

dustymabe · 2020-05-29T04:56:25Z

I don't know of one off hand. Anyone else?

jlebon · 2020-06-02T14:25:05Z

This might fall under #401.

Here is a nfs-server contribution :) I've tried https://github.com/ehough/docker-nfs-server . The fcct for nfsv4:

variant: fcos
version: 1.0.0

    - path: /etc/modules-load.d/nfs.conf
      mode: 0660
      contents:

          nfs
          nfsd
systemd:
  units: 
    - name: nfs-server.service
      enabled: true
      contents: |
        [Unit]
        Description=NFS Server
        After=network-online.target
        Wants=network-online.target

        [Service]
        Environment=REGISTRY_AUTH_FILE=<your path>/.docker/config.json
        TimeoutStartSec=0
        ExecStartPre=-/bin/podman kill nfs-server
        ExecStartPre=-/bin/podman rm nfs-server
        ExecStartPre=/bin/podman pull <your repos>
        ExecStart=/bin/podman run --rm --name nfs-server \
          --cap-add SYS_ADMIN --cap-add SYS_MODULE \
          -e NFS_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG \
          -p 2049:2049 \
          ${data_volume_mounts} -v ${exports_file}:/etc/exports:Z -v /lib/modules:/lib/modules:ro --security-opt label=disable \
          <your repos>
        KillMode=none
        Type=simple
        [Install]
        WantedBy=multi-user.target

data_volume_mounts, exports_file, <your repos> and <your path> must be replaced with your settings.

I think that FCOS should have a NFS server included in its base package.
AFAIK it runs better if not in a container, because of kernel module support?

But I agree that having Python as a dependency for just a NFS server is ridiculous.

this is going to be maintained by the FCOS team? I really need a permanent/stable nfs server solution for my FCOS deployments

@diabl0w I think this is a good candidate for inclusion in the docs. However we cannot support container images that are not built in the Fedora ecosystem. If you can come up with a working fedora-container based Dockerfile, I'm happy to help you get it into Fedora's container registry.

Thanks for the response, unfortunately I am not qualified to be doing that, haha. I've been just following the rabbit hole of a few issues being linked to running an nfs server inside coreos. It seems like the only solution for now is running a 3rd party container, until the nfs-server nfs-client rpms get sorted out.
