Just playing devil's advocate here... If the admin was prepared to restart a 
component after the campaign was committed, why is it a big deal to do this 
during the campaign?

SMF already supports the "suspended by error detected" state for other problems 
(e.g. node failing to come back after reboot for a rolling upgrade w/reboot 
campaign). So, it is already possible for the admin to restart a campaign 
before it has been committed.

** [tickets:#2419] smf: when fixing ticket #2145 a NBC problem was introduced**

**Status:** unassigned
**Milestone:** 5.2.0
**Created:** Mon Apr 10, 2017 11:11 AM UTC by elunlen
**Last Updated:** Mon Apr 10, 2017 11:18 AM UTC
**Owner:** nobody


Previous behavior:
The behavior was to ignore a fail to activate a component unless any secondary 
fault happened. This means that it was for example possible to complete a 
campaign even if a component failed to start and fix this problem after 
committing. No action to resume the campaign was needed.

After [#2145]:
The campaign will always suspend in case of component fail and a resume must be 
requested for the campaign to continue.

NBC:
The behavior has changed in such a way that it must be seen as a NBC. The #2145 
ticket corrects SMF behavior regarding AIS but is still NBC since the previous 
behavior is the legacy behavior in previous releases.

Proposal 1; Fix if not needed to change setting in runtime e.g. during an 
upgrade
Add a new configuration attribute to the SMF configuration class that makes it 
possible to select whether the behavior after #2145 shall be used or not. The 
default setting must be the previous behavior.
The setting must have the following properties:
- If the attribute does not exist (old model)           legacy behavior
- If the attribute value is not changed from default    legacy behavior
- If the attribute value is <empty> or invalid          legacy behavior
- If the attribute value is a valid “ON” setting                new behavior
- A request to change the attribute in runtime shall always be rejected

Proposal 2; Fix if change has to be made during upgrade:
Add a new configuration attribute to the SMF configuration class that makes it 
possible to select whether the behavior after #2145 shall be used or not. The 
default setting must be the previous behavior.
The setting must have the following properties:
- If the attribute does not exist (old model)           legacy behavior
- If the attribute value is not changed from default    legacy behavior
- If the attribute value is <empty> or invalid          legacy behavior
- If the attribute value is a valid “ON” setting                new behavior
- Attribute value must be possible to change in runtime in “idle” state (no 
campaign is executing)
- Attribute value must be possible to change in runtime in campaign init state. 
Note that if changed here
  the new setting must be used in the rest of the campaign
