[Linux-ha-dev] BSC extensions

[Lars Marowsky-Bree]

Hi,

I extended BSC to verify the basic functionality of Dummy, IPaddr,
IPaddr2 and the Filesystem RAs using ocf-tester.

For the Filesystem RA, I used a slight hack for mounting a filesystem
which is "always there" on any Linux platform, so if someone feels so
inclined, I'd be interested to know whether something similar can be
done portably.

This is a first stab at getting "unit tests" for our more important
RAs. ocf-tester is quite good at that, but we sort-of need more
pre-packaged configurations for being able to test more RAs. We could
make "validate-all" a pre-requisite for finding out whether the RA is
actually "applicable" (ie, all dependencies for running it are
installed).

Please let me know your thoughts and contribute more tests ;-)


(A further extension will be for ocf-tester to optionally do the same
via the lrmadmin tool. Dejan will go for that soonish.)


Regards,
    Lars
