placement-manage

Synopsis

placement-manage <category> <action>

Description

placement-manage is used to perform administrative tasks with the placement service. It is designed for use by operators and deployers.

Options

The standard pattern for executing a placement-manage command is:

placement-manage  [-h] [--config-dir DIR] [--config-file PATH]
                  <category> <command> [<args>]

Run without arguments to see a list of available command categories:

placement-manage

You can also run with a category argument such as db to see a list of all commands in that category:

placement-manage db

Configuration options (for example the [placement_database]/connection URL) are by default found in a file at /etc/placement/placement.conf. The config-dir and config-file arguments may be used to select a different file.

The following sections describe the available categories and arguments for placement-manage.

Placement Database

placement-manage db version
Print the current database version.
placement-manage db sync
Upgrade the database schema to the most recent version. The local database connection is determined by [placement_database]/connection in the configuration file used by placement-manage. If the connection option is not set, the command will fail. The defined database must already exist.
placement-manage db stamp <version>
Stamp the revision table with the given revision; don’t run any migrations. This can be used when the database already exists and you want to bring it under alembic control.
placement-manage db online_data_migrations [--max-count]

Perform data migration to update all live data.

--max-count controls the maximum number of objects to migrate in a given call. If not specified, migration will occur in batches of 50 until fully complete.

Returns exit code 0 if no (further) updates are possible, 1 if the --max-count option was used and some updates were completed successfully (even if others generated errors), 2 if some updates generated errors and no other migrations were able to take effect in the last batch attempted, or 127 if invalid input is provided (e.g. non-numeric max-count).

This command should be called after upgrading database schema and placement services on all controller nodes. If it exits with partial updates (exit status 1) it should be called again, even if some updates initially generated errors, because some updates may depend on others having completed. If it exits with status 2, intervention is required to resolve the issue causing remaining updates to fail. It should be considered successfully completed only when the exit status is 0.

For example:

$ placement-manage db online_data_migrations
Running batches of 50 until complete
2 rows matched query create_incomplete_consumers, 2 migrated
+---------------------------------------------+-------------+-----------+
|                  Migration                  | Total Found | Completed |
+---------------------------------------------+-------------+-----------+
|            set_root_provider_ids            |      0      |     0     |
|         create_incomplete_consumers         |      2      |     2     |
+---------------------------------------------+-------------+-----------+

In the above example, the create_incomplete_consumers migration found two candidate records which required a data migration. Since --max-count defaults to 50 and only two records were migrated with no more candidates remaining, the command completed successfully with exit code 0.
