Hi,

The idea was that we would like to let the user know in Barbican when the 
certificate is being used with LBaaS. Therefore, we added the register and 
de-register logic. I don’t know of any use case where a certificate needs to be 
deleted in Barbican when LBaaS doesn’t need it any longer.

So I agree with Andrey – it’s the same semantic as images.

deregistered in barbican after lbaas listener delete

Frankie,

What is the reason why the cert has to be deleted on the balancer deletion?
The entire workflow, if I'm not mistaken, is to first work with Barbican API in 
order to create the cert bundle. And technically it is not yet connected to 
anything else.
After that you create the balancer, specifying the link to where the cert 
bundle is.
From this perspective, why one should expect the cert bundle to be deleted?

For me personally it is the same as deletion of the image automatically once 
the instance got deleted :/

Sorry if I'm missing the context.

Yeah, I believe it was because we intended to leave it up to the specific 
certificate manager to determine what needs to be done -- we are treating it as 
a delete, and if the cert manager wants to do a true delete, they can. I'll 
agree the verb is not perfectly clear, but the driver author should make sure 
the correct action is taken regardless of the function name.

It's possible we should just rename the function to something like 
"unget_cert", which sounds a bit nonsensical but is possibly still clearer. I 
remember at the time I wrote this being frustrated with trying to name the 
function and wanting to just move on. T_T

PS: Did we remove the local cert manager yet? Now I need to check... I hope so, 
because it's not actually usable, nor can it be without API modifications 
(which we discussed but never actually implemented or even fully agreed on).

Thanks rm_work.

I also notice something need to be handled properly.

For barbican, the delete_cert() only deregisters the cert without actually 
delete it. That's safe for us to call during 
delete_listener()/delete_loadbalancer().

But if the user uses other cert_manager by any chance, say the 
local_cert_manager, the same delete_cert() method will do a real delete of the 
cert.

Probably we need to implement register_consumer()/remove_consumer() method for 
cert_manager and call them in neutron_lbaas as well.

I've got this on my list of things to look at -- I don't know if it was you I 
was talking with on IRC the other day about this issue, but I'm definitely 
aware of it. As soon as we are past the Ocata feature freeze crunch, I'll take 
a closer look.

My gut says that we should be calling the delete (which is not a real delete) 
when the LB is deleted, and not doing so is a bug, but I'll need to double 
check the logic as it has been a while since I touched this.

Hi community,

I created a loadbalancer with a listener with protocol as "TERMINATED_HTTPS" 
and specify --default-tls-container-ref with a ref of secret container from 
Barbican.
However, after I deleted the listener, the lbaas wasn't removed from barbican 
container consumer list.

$openstack secret container get

I went through the neutron-lbaas code base. We did register consumer during the 
creation of "TERMINATED_HTTPS" listener in [1]. But we somehow doesn't 
deregister it during the deletion in [1]: 
https://github.com/openstack/neutron-lbaas/blob/stable/mitaka/neutron_lbaas/services/loadbalancer/plugin.py#L642
get_cert() register lbaas as a consumer for barbican cert_manager.  
(https://github.com/openstack/neutron-lbaas/blob/stable/mitaka/neutron_lbaas/common/cert_manager/barbican_cert_manager.py#L177)
[2]: 
https://github.com/openstack/neutron-lbaas/blob/stable/mitaka/neutron_lbaas/services/loadbalancer/plugin.py#L805
we probably need to call delete_cert from barbican cert_manager to remove the 
consumer. 
(https://github.com/openstack/neutron-lbaas/blob/stable/mitaka/neutron_lbaas/common/cert_manager/barbican_cert_manager.py#L187)


My questions are:
1. is that a bug?
2. or is it a intentional design letting the vendor driver to handle it?

It looks more like a bug to me.

Any thoughts?


Best,
Jiahao
