2.3. File Handling During Provisioning

Behavior at Deployment

A bundle file contains a set of files and directories that should be pushed to a resource. However, the provisioning process does not merely copy the files over to the deployment directory. Provisioning treats a bundle as, essentially, a template that defines the entire content structure for the target (root) directory.

For example, a bundle contains these files:

app.conf
lib/myapp.jar

If the root directory is deploy/myApp/, then the final configuration is going to be:

deploy/myApp/app.conf
deploy/myApp/lib/myapp.jar

By default, if there are any files in deploy/myApp/, then they will be removed before the bundle is copied over, so that the deployment directory looks exactly the way the bundle is configured.

For an application-specific destination, like deploy/myApp/, then that behavior is totally acceptable because the defined application content should be the only content in that directory. However, bundles can contain a variety of content and can be deployed almost anywhere on a platform or within a JBoss server. In a lot of real life infrastructures, the directory where the bundle is deployed may have existing data that should be preserved.

The deployment directory is the root directory for the bundle. The recipe for the bundle can define a parameter that tells the provisioning process how to handle data in that root directory — specifically, should it ignore (preserve) existing files and subdirectories in the root directory, or should it manage the root directory and make it match the bundle structure.

The manageRootDir option in the recipe tells the provisioning system whether to delete everything and force the directory to match the bundle content. The default is for that to be true, for the bundle to define the content and structure of the root directory. If the data in that directory must be saved, the manageRootDir option can be set to false, which means that provisioning will copy over the bundle and create the appropriate files and subdirectories, but it will not manage (remove) the existing content in the directory.

Warning

If you deploy a bundle to a high level directory like /etc on a platform or a critical directory like deploy/ or conf/, then all of the existing files and subdirectories in that directory are deleted. This can cause performance problems or data loss.

Bundles and Subdirectories

Even if the manageRootDir option is set to false, subdirectories and files contained in the bundle are always managed by the bundle, even if they existed before the bundle was deployed.

For example, the deploy/ directory has this layout before any bundle is deployed:

deploy/
deploy/notes.txt
deploy/myApp1/
deploy/myApp2/
deploy/myApp2/first.txt

A bundle is created with this layout:

myApp2/
myApp2/foo.txt
myApp2/bar.txt

If manageRootDir is set to false, the existing files in the deploy/ remain untouched, except for what is in the myApp2/ subdirectory, because that directory is defined by the bundle. So, the final directory layout is this:

deploy/ (ignored)
deploy/notes.txt (ignored)
deploy/myApp1/ (ignored)
deploy/myApp2/ (managed)
myApp2/foo.txt (managed)
myApp2/bar.txt (managed)

Note

Any existing content in the root directory is backed up before it is deleted, so it can be restored later.

The backup directory is /home/.rhqdeployments/resourceID/backup.

Files Added After the Bundle Is Deployed

After the initial deployment, there can be instances where files are added to the deployment directory, such as log files or additional data.

Within the deployment directory, the provisioning process overwrites any bundle-associated files with the latest version and removes any files that are not part of the bundle. Log files and other data — as with the root directory — need to be preserved between upgrades. Those known files and directories can be called out in the recipe using the <rhq:ignore> element, which tells the provisioning process to ignore those files within the deployment directory.

Setting these options in the recipe is described in Section 7.6.3, “WARNING: The Managed (Target) Directory and Overwriting or Saving Files”.
