Description

I created a discovery image extension to add a few facts. This is not downloaded from the TFTP server by discovery-setup when the image is booting:

May 29 11:40:28 fdi discovery-setup[1257]: Extension at: tftp:///cloudfacts.zip
May 29 11:40:28 fdi discovery-setup[1257]: TFTP error downloading cloudfacts.zip: (to)

When logging in to the image using SSH and running discovery-setup, the facts are downloaded correctly:

[root@fdi ~]# discovery-setup
Extension at: tftp://172.31.0.130/cloudfacts.zip

This is using the 2.1.1 discovery image.

I think discovery-setup.service should have:

After=discovery-setup.path

Hello, thanks for the report. We need to download the extension early, before discovery-register and foreman-proxy start up. I am not following your last comment. Did you mean

After=network.service

rather than what you provided?

No. discovery-setup.service should (I think) run after discovery-setup.path. As the discovery-setup.path creates a file which contains the ZIP_SERVER environment variable which is required by discovery-setup.service. Currently there is a race condition, where sometimes this file does not yet exist when starting discovery-setup.service, which results in a failure to download the extensions.

Can you take a look to https://github.com/theforeman/foreman-discovery-image/pull/14 ?

I will trigger image build, will send the URL in a minute there. I need a confirmation it works for you. Having trouble to repro on my libvirt setup.
