so-telegraf-cred was committed with mode 644, causing
`so-telegraf-cred add "$MINION_ID"` in so-minion's add_telegraf_to_minion
to fail with "Permission denied" and log "Failed to provision postgres
telegraf cred for <minion>". Mark it executable.
Also bail early in seed_creds_file if mkdir/printf/chmod fail, and in
so-yaml.py loadYaml surface a clear stderr message with the filename
instead of an unhandled FileNotFoundError traceback.
Swap the ~150-line Python implementation for a 48-line bash script that
delegates YAML mutation to so-yaml.py — the same helper so-minion and
soup already use. Same semantics: seed the creds pillar on first use,
idempotent add, silent remove.
SO minion ids are dot-free by construction (setup/so-functions:1884
strips everything after the first '.'), so using the raw id as the
so-yaml.py key path is safe.
The old flow had two writers for each per-minion Telegraf password
(so-minion wrote the minion pillar; postgres.auth regenerated any
missing aggregate entries). They drifted on first-boot and there was
no trigger to create DB roles when a new minion joined.
Split responsibilities:
- pillar/postgres/auth.sls (manager-scoped) keeps only the so_postgres
admin cred.
- pillar/telegraf/creds.sls (grid-wide) holds a {minion_id: {user,
pass}} map, shadowed per-install by the local-pillar copy.
- salt/manager/tools/sbin/so-telegraf-cred is the single writer:
flock, atomic YAML write, PyYAML safe_dump so passwords never
round-trip through so-yaml.py's type coercion. Idempotent add, quiet
remove.
- so-minion's add/remove hooks now shell out to so-telegraf-cred
instead of editing pillar files directly.
- postgres.telegraf_users iterates the new pillar key and CREATE/ALTERs
roles from it; telegraf.conf reads its own entry via grains.id.
- orch.deploy_newnode runs postgres.telegraf_users on the manager and
refreshes the new minion's pillar before the new node highstates,
so the DB role is in place the first time telegraf tries to connect.
- soup's post_to_3.1.0 backfills the creds pillar from accepted salt
keys (idempotent) and runs postgres.telegraf_users once to reconcile
the DB.
