Patch v2: Instead of adding the /etc/default location, change all /etc/sysconfig files to their /etc/default counterpart since the sysconfig folder does not exist in Debian based distros.
** Patch added: "Debdiff for xenial v2" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pacemaker/+bug/1819046/+attachment/5244565/+files/xenial_v2.debdiff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu High Availability Team, which is subscribed to pacemaker in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1819046 Title: Systemd unit file reads settings from wrong path Status in pacemaker package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in pacemaker source package in Xenial: Confirmed Bug description: [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) Change default pacemaker log location: root@pacemaker:~# echo "PCMK_logfile=/tmp/pacemaker.log" >> /etc/default/pacemaker 4) Restart pacemaker service and verify that log file exists: root@pacemaker:~# systemctl restart pacemaker.service root@pacemaker:~# ls -l /tmp/pacemaker.log ls: cannot access '/tmp/pacemaker.log': No such file or directory After fixing the systemd unit, changes to /etc/default/pacemaker get picked up correctly: root@pacemaker:~# ls -l /tmp/pacemaker.log -rw-rw---- 1 hacluster haclient 27335 Mar 7 20:46 /tmp/pacemaker.log [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.
