Bug #9359
closed
Agent capabilities should be per agent, and not per node
Description
Agent capabilities should be per agent, rather than system global.
For instance, if you have a Rudder server with Rudder agent + Enterprise agent, the Rudder Agent has capabilities that Enterprise agent doesn't
So, as a result, the promises run with Enterprise fail (like dumpdatastate), and break the promise generation

Arrg !
It should probably.
However, we try to support the main cfengine directly without modification. Which means that an enterprise version of the cfengine agent should never have capabilities.
So the solution could be to just ignore the capabilities file when we are running on a nova agent.

In the policies, ncf generic methods are loaded through /var/rudder/ncf/common/10_ncf_internals/list-compatible-inputs script
When Rudder and ncf is upgraded, ncf and Rudder Techniques are updated using different methods:
- Rudder Techniques are generated by the Web Interface, post installation
- ncf files are updated by packaging in /usr/share/ncf/, and copied by agent run to /var/rudder/ncf
Only when the agent is run does the list-compatible-inputs file is updated, so there may be a temporary de-synchronisation between Rudder policies and ncf, causing the error to be still present during upgrade. Symptom may be a red cross during policy generation in the Web Interface
To prevent issues, you can:- upgrade Rudder and ncf
- (optionally) upgrade Rudder Techniques
- run "rudder agent update && rudder agent run" on the Rudder server
- log in the Web Interface - if policy generation shows a red cross, click on "Regenerate policies", which will solve the issue
