Public bug reported:
[Impact]
Systemd Unit file doesn't read any settings by default
[Description]
The unit file shipped with the Xenial pacemaker package tries to read
environment settings from /etc/sysconfig/ instead of /etc/default/. The result
is that settings defined in /etc/default/pacemaker are not effective.
Since the /etc/default/pacemaker file is created with default values when the
pacemaker package is installed, we should source that in the systemd unit file.
[Test Case]
1) Deploy a Xenial container:
$ lxc launch ubuntu:xenial pacemaker
2) Update container and install pacemaker:
root@pacemaker:~# apt update && apt install pacemaker -y
3) Check the systemd unit file for the "EnvironmentFile" option:
root@pacemaker:~# systemctl cat pacemaker | grep EnvironmentFile
EnvironmentFile=-/etc/sysconfig/pacemaker
EnvironmentFile=-/etc/sysconfig/sbd
[Regression Potential]
The regression potential for this should be very low, since the configuration
file is already being created by default and other systemd unit files are using
the /etc/default config. In case the file doesn't exist or the user removed it,
the "-" prefix will gracefully ignore the missing file according to the
systemd.exec manual [0].
Nonetheless, the new package will be tested with autopkgtests and the fix will
be validated in a reproduction environment.
