Service limits are per tenancy. vm-single-principal now builds in its own, so
the shape the other topologies share can have zero quota there, and the apply
then fails before anything about the instance principal is exercised.
Measured in ours: standard-e6-core-count is 0 available, against 13 for e5 and
10 for standard3. The first principal run died on 400-LimitExceeded for Core
Instance, which reads as a capacity problem and is a shape with no quota.
OCI_PRINCIPAL_SHAPE overrides it for that topology alone and defaults to the
shape every other topology uses, so nothing changes where quota already exists.
* fix: default the OCI helper to the DEFAULT profile
oci_env.py shipped our own internal Oracle compartment profile as the default for
every reader, with a second internal name as a fallback.
A fresh tenancy's config holds only `[DEFAULT]`, so the shipped default was a name
nobody else can have, and the fallback chain could land a deployment in whichever
tenancy a different profile happened to point at.
The profile is now `DEFAULT`, overridable by `OCI_CLI_PROFILE` or `--profile`, and a
named profile the config does not hold is an error rather than a fallback.
`DEFAULT` needs its own existence test, because configparser treats it as the
fallback for every other section and `has_section` denies it exists even when
`oci setup config` wrote nothing else.
`eip-move-test.sh` and the config table in the README carried the same name.
CI reads its credential from the environment rather than from a profile, so nothing
there referenced it.
* docs: look the OCI compartment OCID up by name
The guide asked the reader to paste `ocid1.compartment.oc1..xxx` three times, and
the `oci` CLI it already requires can resolve the name instead.
The lookup needs its own check. `oci iam compartment list --query ... | [0]` exits 0
and prints nothing when the name matches nothing, so an unset `$CID` would otherwise
reach Terraform and fail with an OCI error naming neither the compartment nor the
cause.
Two compartments in one tenancy can share a name, which the listing command shows
and the lookup cannot resolve, so the paste form stays as the answer for that case.
Records why the tenancy root is the wrong value: the step 2.1 policy is scoped to
whatever `$CID` holds.
* Revert "docs: look the OCI compartment OCID up by name"

* fix: stop validate-topology.sh failing on macOS bash
`tf_principal_var` is empty on every run that does not pass `--instance-principal`,
and bash before 4.4 treats `"${arr[@]}"` on an empty array as an unbound variable
under `set -u`.
macOS ships bash 3.2, so the documented deployment command aborted at the tf_vars
assembly with `tf_principal_var[@]: unbound variable` before building anything.
Assigning the array was not enough, which is why the earlier `HOSTS=()` fix did not
cover this: the error is in the expansion, not the reference.
Both sites now expand only behind a length test, which is valid on every version.
`capture_journals` had the same shape for `HOSTS`, reachable when a run fails before
the apply.
Reproduced and fixed against bash 3.2.57 in a container, which emits the identical
message, and the script now runs to the terraform call on 3.2 for vm-single,
vm-single-principal and `--instance-principal`, including the `--keep` cleanup path
with no hosts.
* docs: record the bash 3.x requirement in the OCI scripts
These three are the scripts the OCI guide tells an operator to run, and macOS ships
bash 3.2, so a bash 4 construct in any of them breaks a deployment rather than a
test.
The constraint has now been rediscovered twice, through declare -A and mapfile, and
then through an empty array expanded under set -u.
Names the three traps at the top of each file so the next change does not have to
find them by failing on someone's Mac.
* fix: stream the workbook suite instead of hiding it in a file
The nine workbooks ran with stdout redirected to `workbooks.log`, so a run wedged
inside one printed nothing until the whole suite finished.
A CI job then sat silent for hours with no way to tell which workbook it was in, or
whether it was working at all.
The output is now teed, so the file the per-workbook table is parsed from is
unchanged while the run is visible live.
Each of the driver's own RUN/PASS/FAIL lines is stamped with elapsed seconds and the
workbook name, which is what identifies the slow one without reading the log.
`pipefail` carries the ssh exit status through the pipe, so a failed suite still
takes the branch that records the table and captures the journals.
* fix: grant the OCI policy the subnet verb AssignPrivateIP requires
An OCI node with a pool-mode external interface formed, reported healthy, and
then refused every launch wanting a public address with a 404
NotAuthorizedOrNotFound from AssignPrivateIP.
AssignPrivateIP calls CreatePrivateIp, which Oracle documents as needing
PRIVATE_IP_CREATE, PRIVATE_IP_ASSIGN, VNIC_ASSIGN and SUBNET_ATTACH, and
DeletePrivateIp as needing SUBNET_DETACH.
The policy granted use vnics, manage private-ips and manage public-ips, and no
subnet permission at all, so SUBNET_ATTACH was never held.
Only the subnets use verb carries it.
Measured on a live node as the instance principal: GetVnic and ListPrivateIps
succeed, GetSubnet and CreatePrivateIp both 404.
Authentication, the dynamic group's matching rule and the compartment were all
correct, so the credential was authentic and unauthorised.
The documented operator policy for the API-key route carried the same three
statements, so neither credential route could allocate.
A node now proves its own credential at pool start by making one read in each
permission class, and logs the missing verb if one fails.
The topology gate waited for "resolved the external VNIC", which comes from the
metadata service and needs no IAM policy, so an unauthorised node passed the
gate and failed an hour later inside a workbook as capacity.
It now waits for the authorisation line and fails immediately on a refusal.
Reads rather than a real assign-and-release round trip: a round trip also fails
on a full subnet, and reporting that as an authorisation fault sends an operator
to IAM for a capacity problem.
* docs: say what a principal run costs in a tenancy with no dynamic group
No principal topology can pass there, and the only previous hint was one clause
about OCI_INSTANCE_PRINCIPAL needing the group to exist.
* test: cover the subnet read and the authorisation verdict
Diff coverage was 39.1% against a 60% gate. Three of the four gaps were real.
GetSubnet on the SDK-backed client had no test, so the request shape was
unverified: addressing the collection rather than one subnet by OCID would
answer from a different permission and report a credential as working when it is
not. Also pins that a sparse body is not an error and that the unauthorised 404
arrives as ErrNotFound, which is what stops the check retrying a verdict that
will never change.
The fake's GetSubnet was exercised only from the ocinet tests, and coverage is
recorded per package under test, so it read as zero-covered.
reportAuthorisation now has a test asserting the exact log text, because
validate-topology.sh greps for it and a rename would quietly turn the gate into
one that never fires.
The six lines still uncovered are inside FromPoolConfig, which needs a live
JetStream to reach. Diff coverage 87.0%.
* fix: refuse a run whose tfvars file contradicts the compartment it was given
Terraform ranks *.auto.tfvars above TF_VAR_*, so a leftover file wins silently
over an operator targeting a different tenancy by environment, and the guide
tells every operator to write one.
Hit for real: a stale terraform.auto.tfvars naming a different tenancy's
compartment and a bare-metal shape overrode TF_VAR_compartment_ocid, and the
plan was for 11 resources in a compartment nobody had chosen. Only a dry run
caught it.
The run now stops and names both values rather than building.
* fix: collect orphaned OCI public IPs and name the limit that was hit
A reserved public IP attached to nothing is on no VNIC, so the reconcile
that exists to find leaked addresses could not see the ones that matter.
It also ran only at startup, while an address is leaked on release and on
teardown. Twenty accumulated in one compartment and exhausted the
tenancy's limit of 50, after which every launch needing a public address
aborted.
Reconcile now lists reserved public IPs in the compartment and collects
those that carry our prefix, are attached to nothing, are named by no
binding and are older than a grace period. All four are needed: an
allocated but unassociated Elastic IP is detached too and is the
customer's to keep, and a young detached address is what another node's
CreatePublicIP looks like until it attaches. A pool with no binding
record is not swept at all, since that is indistinguishable from a store
that cannot be read.
The pass now repeats on a ticker rather than running once at startup.
Both OCI ceilings also resolved to InsufficientAddressCapacity, which
tells an operator the region is out of addresses when the fix is to
release addresses they already hold. AWS separates them, so a tenancy out
of reserved public IPs is now AddressLimitExceeded and a full VNIC is
PrivateIpAddressLimitExceeded.
* feat: run the OCI principal e2e in a tenancy that can hold its dynamic group
vm-single-principal needs the tenancy's dynamic group, and creating one is a
tenancy-root write that a shared test tenancy does not grant us. The topology
could never pass there however correct the code was, so it now takes its own
credential from OCI_PRINCIPAL_*, all six or none. A partial set is refused
before the build rather than at the apply, because it would build one tenancy's
instances against another's compartment. With none set the topology is recorded
SKIPPED instead of spending a provision to fail.
The sweep takes the same credential, or a leftover principal deployment is
destroyed against a tenancy that never held it and reported clean.
Two defects found while proving it:
--dry-run reported FAIL on every topology with a tree source, because the dry
run skips the build and then refuses the tarball it would have produced. The
flag operators are told to run first could not pass.
The dry run truncated its plan to the last 30 lines, which is the outputs block.
That dropped the resource count and every compartment and shape line, so the
one check a dry run exists for could not be made from its output. It now writes
the whole plan and prints the summary.
Removing a deployment is documented as leaving public IPs behind. Spinifex
allocates them on the running node, so they are in no Terraform state and
destroy cannot see them; twenty accumulated and exhausted a tenancy's limit,
which then refused every launch in every compartment.
* fix: canonicalise the Opc-Next-Page header in the pagination test
CI's linter rejects a non-canonical header name and the local preflight does
not, so this passed here and failed there.
* docs(oci): offer both credential routes, and default the guide to the release
Step 2 was one route only, the scoped API key, with the instance principal
mentioned in a TIP at the end of it. It is now "2. OCI Credentials for
Spinifex" with the two routes as 2.1 and 2.2, a table to choose between them,
and the instance principal first because it leaves no key on any node.
The guide also assumed the dev branch throughout. `git switch dev` and
`--channel dev` are now an optional note for installing a pre-release, and the
documented path is the published release.
* test(oci): add a vm-single-principal topology, and cover the credential branch
Instance-principal authentication was broken for a release while the OCI
nightly stayed green, because the run's two axes never crossed: every topology
that built the address allocator authenticated with an API key, and every run
that authenticated as the instance was dispatched with no external pool, so the
allocator was never constructed and the credential never used.
vm-single-principal closes that. It is vm-single with the credential fixed by
the topology rather than by a separate switch, so the name alone decides it, and
pairing it with --no-external-pool is refused rather than run: without the
allocator there is nothing for it to exercise. It joins the nightly's default
list, and naming it alone is the way to test this one thing in a quarter of the
full run.
A unit test covers the same branch without a tenancy. newClient now reaches its
two constructors through package variables a test can swap, which is the only
way to observe the choice off an OCI instance - both real constructors need
either an instance identity or a key file on disk.
* fix(oci): let the tfvars choose the credential, and stop the guide hardcoding paths
The deploy driver passed instance_principal as a -var, which outranks a
tfvars file, so a deployment that set it there had it silently replaced with
off and the nodes went looking for a key. Same defect class as the shape and
node count, and the same fix: the flag is a choice about one run and still
outranks everything, and without it the deployment's own tfvars decides.
The driver now reads instance_principal from terraform.tfvars and
*.auto.tfvars for its pre-apply gates, taking the last assignment as Terraform
does, and checks that guess against a new Terraform output once the apply has
run. They have to agree, because the credential handoff is skipped on the
strength of it and a wrong answer leaves a node with no credential at all.
The guide now carries one export rather than two more steps. SPX_PRINCIPAL is
set in step 2.1, expanded into the tfvars step 4 already writes, and read back
from there in step 5, so an instance-principal deployment runs the same
command as a key-based one.
Getting into the node needed an address copied out of the log. Every topology
now writes its hosts file, not only the multi-node one that hands it to
install-node.sh, and the run prints the ssh and destroy commands when --keep
leaves the infrastructure up. The guide exports TOPOLOGY once, so the paths
read the same for one VM, three, or bare metal.
* fix(oci): print the ssh key path as ~ rather than expanded
The --keep line read ssh -i /home/you/.ssh/oci-spx, which is the invoking
user's home and differs on every machine. Collapsed to ~ when the key is under
$HOME, left alone when it is not.
Admission clamps on live MemAvailable, so on a loaded box running tests in
parallel any daemon test that allocates could see no capacity. TestMain now
disables the live-memory gate; its own tests inject a reader.
admin init and account create wrote a single profile endpoint_url, so aws s3
reached the gateway on :9999, which does not serve S3. Profiles now carry a
services section pointing s3 at the predastore gate, and the INI rewrite keeps
nested settings instead of flattening them.
Servers reply before ending their span, so the client can return before
the span reaches the recorder. SpansByKind now polls until a server span
has ended and fails the test if none does within 5s.
The dev release tagged itself with git describe plus -dev, and describe
resolved to the previous dev tag, so every tag appended to the last until
the tarball name passed the 255-byte filename limit. Describe against
release tags only, here and in the Makefile and bare-metal VERSION.
* fix(oci): run the deploy driver on the bash macOS ships
`validate-topology.sh` died on line 41 with `bm: unbound variable` on a Mac. macOS
ships bash 3.2, where `declare -A` is an indexed assignment and the subscript is
read as an arithmetic expression, so `[bm]` dereferenced an unset variable and
`set -u` ended the run. `mapfile` further down would have failed next.
The guide names macOS as a supported workstation, so the driver now uses neither:
the per-topology defaults are a `case` in a function, and the host list is a read
loop over a captured string. The output is captured before the loop so a failed
`terraform output` fails there rather than silently producing an empty host list.
Verified: all three topologies resolve their shape and node count, and an unknown
topology still names the valid set.
* docs(oci): end the OCI deploy where the install guides end
The deploy command now carries --skip-workload, so the guide stops at a formed
cluster and a working AWS call rather than at a workbook run, and hands off to
Setting Up Your Cluster the way every other install guide does. A step to SSH to
the node was missing between the deploy and the verification call.
Three things this corrects while the section was open. The expected output block
now matches the command it documents, including the --skip-workload line that
ends the run. The --channel dev callout said OCI support was missing from the
deploy driver, when what is missing is an OCI address allocator in a published
release. The verification output was fenced as json while holding a shell
session, which is neither valid json nor the thing being shown.
The note on probing a guest's public address from outside the VCN moves to the
handoff section, since that is now where a guest first gets launched.
