Public bug reported:
Description of problem:
When ironic (undercloud) is not able to get reverse DNS entry for IP assigned
to br-ctlplane (doesn't even receive NXDomain error message in time, e.g. DNS
server is misconfigured, connectivity issues, ...), all ironic commands take
very long to execute (they will time out, but they still succeed).
[undercloud]: $ time ironic-node list
+--------------------------------------+------+---------------+-------------+--------------------+-------------+
| UUID | Name | Instance UUID | Power State |
Provisioning State | Maintenance |
+--------------------------------------+------+---------------+-------------+--------------------+-------------+
...
real 0m55.383s
user 0m0.248s
sys 0m0.043s
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Tested on OSP director 8
How reproducible (example with IP 10.100.100.1):
[undercloud]: $ ip a
...
7: br-ctlplane: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state
UNKNOWN
link/ether <macaddr> brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 10.100.100.1/24 brd 10.100.100.255 scope global br-ctlplane
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
...
Configure your DNS server to not respond (even with NXDOMAIN) for
10.100.100.1:
[undercloud]: $ time host 10.100.100.1
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
real 0m14.005s
user 0m0.003s
sys 0m0.003s
[undercloud]: $ time dig -x 10.100.100.1
...
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id: 20304
;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 1
;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION:
; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 4096
;; QUESTION SECTION:
...
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
real 0m21.007s
user 0m0.003s
sys 0m0.004s
[undercloud]: $ time nslookup 10.100.100.1
;; connection timed out; trying next origin
;; connection timed out; trying next origin
;; Got SERVFAIL reply from XYZ, trying next server
;; connection timed out; trying next origin
;; connection timed out; trying next origin
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
real 0m50.008s
user 0m0.002s
sys 0m0.009
Actual results:
Ironic commands can take 20-60 seconds per one in this case
Expected results:
Ironic should have mechanism to deal with this, commands shouldn't take tens of
seconds rather than milliseconds:
[undercloud]: $ time ironic-node list
+--------------------------------------+------+---------------+-------------+--------------------+-------------+
| UUID | Name | Instance UUID | Power State |
Provisioning State | Maintenance |
+--------------------------------------+------+---------------+-------------+--------------------+-------------+
...
real 0m0.393s
user 0m0.244s
sys 0m0.041s
