93f62b999e removed the last file in
puppet/zulip/files/nagios_plugins/zulip_nagios_server, which means the
singular rule in zulip::nagios no longer applies cleanly.
Remove the `zulip::nagios` class, as it is no longer needed.
An organization with at most 5 users that is behind on payments isn't
worth spending time on investigating the situation.
For larger organizations, we likely want somewhat different logic that
at least does not void invoices.
This is similar cleanup to 3ab9b31d2f, but only affects zulip_ops
services; it serves to ensure that any of these services which are no
longer enabled are automatically removed from supervisor.
Note that this will cause a supervisor restart on all affected hosts,
which will restart all supervisor services.
Host-based md5 auth for 127.0.0.1 must be removed from `pg_hba.conf`,
otherwise password authentication is preferred over certificate-based
authentication for localhost.
This requires switching to a reverse tunnel for the auth connection,
with the side effect that the `zulip_ops::teleport::node` manifest can
be applied on servers anywhere in the Internet; they do not need to
have any publicly-available open ports.
This means that services will only open their ports if they are
actually run, without having to clutter rules.v4 with a log of `if`
statements.
This does not go as far as using `puppetlabs/firewall`[1] because that
would represent an additional DSL to learn; raw IPtables sections can
easily be inserted into the generated iptables file via
`concat::fragment` (either inline, or as a separate file), but config
can be centralized next to the appropriate service.

This moves the `.asc` files into subdirectories, and writes out the
according `.list` files into them. It moves from templates to
written-out `.list` files for clarity and ease of
implementation (Debian and Ubuntu need different templates for
`zulip`), and as a way of making explicit which releases are supported
for each list. For the special-case of the PGroonga signing key, we
source an additional file within the directory.
This simplifies the process for adding another class of `.list` file.
This verifies that the proxy is working by accessing a
highly-available website through it. Since failure of this equates to
failures of Sentry notifications and Android mobile push
notifications, this is a paging service.
Redis is not nagios, and this only leads to confusion as to why there
is a nagios domain setting on frontend servers; it also leaves the
`redis0` part of the name buried in the template.
Switch to an explicit variable for the redis hostname.
This is more broadly useful than for just Kandra; provide
documentation and means to install Smokescreen for stand-alone
servers, and motivate its use somewhat more.
This provides a single reference point for all zulip.conf settings;
these mostly link out to the more complete documentation about each
setting, elsewhere.
Fixes#12490.
There is only one PostgreSQL database; the "appdb" is irrelevant.
Also use "postgresql," as it is the name of the software, whereas
"postgres" the name of the binary and colloquial name. This is minor
cleanup, but enabled by the other renames in the previous commit.
This moves the puppet configuration closer to the "roles and profiles
method"[1] which is suggested for organizing puppet classes. Notably,
here it makes clear which classes are meant to be able to stand alone
as deployments.
Shims are left behind at the previous names, for compatibility with
existing `zulip.conf` files when upgrading.

This also removes direct includes of `zulip::common`, making
`zulip::base` gatekeep the inclusion of it. This helps enforce that
any top-level deploy only needs include a single class, and that any
configuration which is not meant to be deployed by itself will not
apply, due to lack of `zulip::common` include.
The following commit will better differentiate these top-level deploys
by moving them into a subdirectory.
d2aa81858c replaced the `apt::source` to set up debathena with
`Exec['setup-apt-repo-debathena']`, but mistakenly left the
`apt::source` in place in `zmirror` (but not `zmirror_personals`).
The `apt::source` resource type was later removed in c9d54f7854,
making the manifest to apply on `zmirror`.
Remove the broken and unnecessary `apt::source` resource.
This property is not related to the base zulip install; move it to
zulip::postgres_common, which is already used as a namespace for
various postgres variables.
There was likely more dependency complexity prior to 97766102df, but
there is now no reason to require that consumers explicitly include
zulip::apt_repository.
Use https://github.com/stripe/smokescreen to provide a server for an
outgoing proxy, run under supervisor. This will allow centralized
blocking of internal metadata IPs, localhost, and so forth, as well as
providing default request timeouts (10s by default).
Disabled on webservers in 047817b6b0, it has since lingered in
configuration, as well as running (to no effect) every minute on the
loadbalancer.
Remove the vestiges of its configuration.
This banner shows on lb1, advertising itself as lb0. There is no
compelling reason for a custom motd, especially one which needs to
be reconfigured for each host.
The rabbitmq cron jobs exist in order to call rabbitmqctl as root and
write the output to files that nagios can consume, since nagios is not
allowed to run rabbitmqctl.
In systems which do not have nagios configured, these every-minute
cron jobs add non-insignificant load, to no effect. Move their
installation into `zulip_ops`. In doing so, also combine the cron.d
files into a single file; this allows us to `ensure => absent` the old
filenames, removing them from existing systems. Leave the resulting
combined cron.d file in `zulip`, since it is still of general utility
and note.
wal-g was used in `puppet/zulip` by env-wal-g, but only installed in
`puppet/zulip_ops`.
Merge all of the dependencies of doing backups using wal-g (wal-g
installation, the pg_backup_and_purge job, the nagios plugin that
verifies it happens) into a common base class in `puppet/zulip`, since
it is generally useful.
No plugins are installed inside the /usr/local/munin/lib this creates
in munin-node, nor are they symlinked into /etc/munin/plugins, so
non-default plugins are added by this.
The one complexity is that hosts_fullstack are treated differently, as
they are not currently found in the manual `hosts` list, and as such
do not get munin monitoring.
In Bionic, nagios-plugins-basic is a transitional package which
depends on monitoring-plugins-basic. In Focal, it is a virtual
package, which means that every time puppet runs, it tries to
re-install the nagios-plugins-basic package.
Switch all instances to referring to `$zulip::common::nagios_plugins`,
and repoint that to monitoring-plugins-basic.
Support for Xenial and Stretch was removed (5154ddafca, 0f4b1076ad,
8944e0ad53, 79acd5ae40, 1219a2e854), but not all codepaths were
updated to remove their conditionals on it.
Remove all code predicated on Xenial or Stretch. debathena support
was migrated to Bionic, since that appears to be the current state of
existing debathena servers.
Since 9e8f1aacb3, zulip_ops machines
might have two Package declarations for `certbot`, which doesn't work
in puppet.
The fix is, as usual, to use our `zulip::safepackage` wrapper instead.
The style guide for Zulip is to always use "primary" and "replica"
when describing database replication. Adjust a few comments under
`puppet/` that do not adhere to this.
Unfortunately, some references still remain to the insensitive and
inaccurate "master" / "slave" terminology. However, these are only in
files which we are attempting to preserve as close to the upstream
versions they are derived from (e.g. postgresql.conf,
postfix/master.cf).
All differences between the primary and replica roles having been
merged, fold the `postgres_common`, `postgres_master`, and
`postgres_slave` roles into just `postgres_appdb`.
These values differed between the primary and secondary database
hosts, for unclear reasons. The differences date back to their
introduction in 387f63deaa. As the comment in the replica
confguration notes, settings of `vm.dirty_ratio = 10` and
`vm.dirty_background_ratio = 5` matched the kernel defaults for
"newer" kernels; however, kernel 2.6.30 bumped those to 20 and 10,
respectively[1], as a fix for underlying logic now being more correct.
Remove these overrides; they should at very least be consistent across
roles, and the previous values look to be an attempt to tune for a
very much older version of the Linux kernel, which was using an
different, buggier, algorithm under the hood.

This file controls streaming replication, and recovery using wal-g on
the secondary. The `primary_conninfo` data needs to change on short
notice when database failover happens, in a way that is not suitable
for being controlled by puppet.
PostgreSQL 12, in fact, removes the use of the `recovery.conf` file[1];
the `primary_conninfo` and `restore_command` information goes into the
main `postgresql.conf` file, and the standby status is controlled by
the presence of absence of an empty `standby.signal` file.
Remove the puppet control of the `recovery.conf` file.

Since the nagios authentication is stored _in the database_, it is
unnecessary to run if the database is simply a replica of the
production database. The only case in which this statement would have
an effect is if the postgres node contains a _different_ (or empty)
database, which `setup_disks` now effectively prevents.
Remove the unnecessary step.
481613a344 updated the `setup_disks` script to no longer reference
`mdadm`, since we no longer set up RAID on servers.
Update the puppet that would call it to remove the `mdadm` dependency,
and run only if the state is not what it produces -- namely, a symlink
for `/var/lib/postgresql`, which must point to an existent
`/srv/postgresql` directory.
As the previous commit, this is currently only used in tuning, but is
a property of the whole postgres configuration; move it there, as just
the directory, not the file.
Use this directory consistently in the erb templates. Since we
produce a `pg_hba.conf`, it makes sense that we point to the path that we
know that we explicitly wrote to, for instance.
1f565a9f41 removed the `package` lines which install
`python-dateutil`, but not the line in `puppet_ops` that reference it;
as such, Puppet manifests in puppet_ops fail to compile.
Remove the stale reference to `python-dateutil`, which is unnecessary
since the code is python3, not python2.
This is vestigial.
It requires manually altering the `htdigest` file (not stored in this
repo) to change the digest realm from `wiki` to `monitoring`, and will
re-prompt users for their passwords if the browsers currently store
them.
Using the `host` virtual package confused Puppet into reporting it was
doing work every time one did a puppet run, resulting in unnecessarily
spammy output.
