For some reason (Debian bug?) the default rsyslog-rotate script was not
properly rotating rsyslog logfiles. Instead, explicitly call systemctl
kill -s HUP for this, using a full path.
Add model and serial numbers to the vendor, and put this on its own
line. Also use BASH for proper syntax formatting. Reformat the header to
be a more compact format.
This was causing some confusing conflicts, so create a new fact called
"this_node" which is inventory_hostname.split('.')[0], i.e. the short
name, and use that everywhere instead of an FQDN or true inventory
hostname.
Due to the requirement of Ceph to have all peer nodes tightly
synchronized with each other to come online, PVC nodes need a way to
synchronize to each other even in the absence of an external time
reference. This is especially prevalent if a set of nodes are left
offline for an extended period (>1-2 weeks), since their hardware clocks
will drift. If the resulting Internet connectivity is then dependent on
a VM, this will cause a catch-22 and the cluster will not properly
start.
This configuration will accomplish that - if no suitable >6 stratum
peers are found, the hosts will enter orphan mode. Since they are now
all configured as "peers" with each other, they will collectively decide
on one of them to become the source and sync to it. A local stratum 10
fudge is added so that at least one of the nodes can become this source.
While this is not an ideal use of NTP, it is by far the cleanest
solution to this problem, and does not impact normal functionality when
the two configured stratum-2 servers are reachable.
