Added P4SVRPORT to use to make the server listen on just the port number. Changed P4PORT to include the hostname to eliminate a bug where the ticket is not issued by the master as it should be when rpl.forward.login is set up. Created a p4login_master and updated appropriate scripts to use it. This actually isn't necessary with the change to include the hostname in P4PORT since the ticket will be valid on all servers in the group, but this covers configurations that aren't using rpl.forward.login. |

Branched a Unix only version of the SDP. Removed extra items to create a cleaner tree. Moved a few items around to make more sense without Windows in the mix. |

| #14 | 20855 | tom_tyler | Fixed quoting bug in p4login. | ||
| #13 | 20774 | tom_tyler |
p4login: Minor fix to use $P4BIN rather than raw 'p4'. This impacted only 'p4 set P4TICKETS' output, but is otherwise a non-functional change. |

Approved and committed, but I believe that the shared data setting is always set to false on the master and we should look at fixing that in another change.
Enhanced p4login again. Improvements: Default behavior with no arguments gives the desired results. For example, if run on a master, we login on the super user P4USER to P4PORT. If run on a replica/edge and auth.id is set, we login P4USER to the P4TARGET port of the replica. All other login functionality, such as logging in the replication service user on a replica, logging in supplemental automation users, is now accessed via new flags. A usage message is now available via '-h' and '-man' options. The new synopsys is: p4login [<instance>] [-p <port> | -service] [-automation] [-all] The <instance> parameter is the only non-flag positional parameter, and can be ommitted if SDP_INSTANCE is already defined (as is typical when called by scripts). With this change, several other scripts calling either the 'p4login' script or 'p4 login' commands were normalized to call p4login as appropriate given the new usage. Reviewer Note: Review p4login first, then other files. Most changes are in p4login. In other scripts callling p4login, calls similar to: $P4BIN -u $P4USER -p $P4PORT login < /path/to/pwd are replaced with: $P4CBIN/p4login In other scritps calling p4login, calls similar to: $P4BIN -p $P4MASTERPORT login < /path/to/pwd are replaced with: $P4CBIN/p4login -p $P4MASTERPORT Note that, if auth.id is set, calling 'p4login' actually has the same behavior as 'p4login -p $P4MASTERPORT', since p4login called on a replica with auth.id set will just login to the master port anyway. Depending on intent, sometimes $P4BIN/p4login -service is used. == Misc Cleanup == In doing the cleanup: * Fixed a hard-coding-to-instance-1 bug in broker_rotate.sh. * Fixed an inconsistency in recreate_db_sync_replica.sh, where it did just a regular login rather than a login -a as done in other places for (for compatibility with some multi-interface NIC card configs). == p4login Call Normalization == Code cleanup was done to normalize calls to p4login, such that: 1) the call starts with $P4CBIN/p4login (not the hard-coded path), and 2) logic to redirect sdtout/stderr to /dev/null was removed, since it's not necessary with p4login. (And if p4login ever does generate any unwanted output, we only fix it in one place). == Tweak to instance_vars.template == This change includes a tweak to set P4MASTERPORT dynamically on a replica to ensure the value precisely matches P4TARGET for the given replica. This will reduce a source of problems when SSL is used, as it is particularly sensitive to the precise P4PORT values used, and will also help for environments which have not yet set auth.id. If the port cannot be determined dynamically, we fall back to the old logic using the assigned value. == Tweak to SDP_ALWAYS_LOGIN behavior == This used to default to 1, now it defaults to 0. At this point we should no longer need to force logins, and in fact doing so can get into a 'p4 login' hang situation with auth.id set. Best to avoid unnecessary logins if we already have a valid ticket. (I think the need to force a login may have gone away with p4d patches). == Obsolete Script == With this change, svclogin.sh is now obsolete. All it was doing was a few redundant 'p4 login' commands followed by a call to p4login anyway. == Testing == Our test suite doesn't fully cover this change, so additional manual testing was done in the Battle School lab environment. |

p4login changes:
* Fixed bug in attempted login count. * Added '-s' flag to login only P4USER to P4PORT. This is to make p4login more useful for cases where extraneous logins it now does (e.g. automation users) isn't desired. * Enahnced in-code docs. |
||
| #10 | 20170 | russell_jackson |
Moved password and users into the config directory to allow for instance specific
users and passwords. Ran into a case where two different teams were sharing the same server hardware and needed this type of differentiation. Surprised that we haven't hit this sooner. Also defaulted mkdirs to use the numeric ports since this is the most common installation. |

| #9 | 20028 | tom_tyler |
p4login v3.1.4:
* Avoids logging replication service user into local replica host, as doing so breaks the login to the master. * Does needed login of service user to P4AUTH server if P4AUTH is set. * Clarity enhancements to log messages. |
||
| #8 | 19965 | tom_tyler |
The Ultimate Perforce Login Script.
Enhanced p4login v3.1.0: * If on a replica/edge server, logs in replication service users. * Uses 'p4 login -a' for non-service type accounts, and 'p4 login 'for service type accounts. * Accounts for auth.id, and behaves appropriately whether auth.id is set or not, e.g. doing an extra 'p4 login' as needed if auth.id isn't set. * Logs in external automaiton users, e.g. trigger or broker filter script users, if defined by the SDP_AUTOMATION_USERS setting in /p4/common/config/p4_<instance>.vars. * Fixed bug where it broke if p4_vars wasn't sourced. It now sources p4_vars. * Logs whether actual 'p4 login' commands were needed and the number of logins done, along with other cosmetic logging enhancements. * Added Version identifier. |

Added missing auto source of p4_vars to eliminate the need to use p4master_run.
Missed in early changes to support that behavior. |

Per review, Rusty noted a preference for the current behvaior, i.e. always doing a login if p4login is called. This version introduces SDP_ALWAYS_LOGIN, which defaults to 1 (enabled), which preserves the traditional 'always login each time the script is run' behavior, while allowing the new 'login only if a ticket is not available' behavior. (An advantage of the traditional behavior is that it fixes the case where a human admin does a 'p4 login' but forgets the '-a' on a server a network card configuration setup such that 'p4 login -a' is required). Customers desiring the 'login only if required' can set SDP_ALWAYS_LOGIN=0 in p4_vars. Also includes style improvements. #review-15606 |

| #4 | 15559 | tom_tyler |
Enhancements to p4login: * Enhanced handling for the cose where p4login is run with no environment defined. * Now checks login status first, and only does a login if ticket expires in less than a month. * Enhanced auditability. * Added comments. #review-15560 |

Normalized P4INSTANCE to SDP_INSTANCE to get Unix/Windows implementations in sync. Reasons: 1. Things that interact with SDP in both Unix and Windows environments shoudn't have to account for this obscure SDP difference between Unix and Windows. (I came across this doing CBD work). 2. The Windows and Unix scripts have different variable names for defining the same concept, the SDP instance. Unix uses P4INSTANCE, while Windows uses SDP_INSTANCE. 3. This instance tag, a data set identifier, is an SDP concept. I prefer the SDP_INSTANCE name over P4INSTANCE, so I prpose to normalize to SDP_INSTANCE. 4. The P4INSTANCE name makes it look like a setting that might be recognized by the p4d itself, which it is not. (There are other such things such as P4SERVER that could perhaps be renamed as a separate task; but I'm not sure we want to totally disallow the P4 prefix for variable names. It looks too right to be wrong in same cases, like P4BIN and P4DBIN. That's a discussion for another day, outside the scope of this task). Meanwhile: * Fixed a bug in the Windows 2013.3 upgrade script that was referencing undefined P4INSTANCE, as the Windows environment defined only SDP_INSTANCE. * Had P4INSTANCE been removed completely, this change would likely cause trouble for users doing updates for existing SDP installations. So, though it involves slight technical debt, I opted to keep a redundant definition of P4INSTANCE in p4_vars.template, with comments indicating SDP_INSTANCE should be used in favor of P4INSTANCE, with a warning that P4INSTANCE may go away in a future release. This should avoid unnecessary upgrade pain. * In mkdirs.sh, the varialbe name was INSTANCE rather than SDP_INSTANCE. I changed that as well. That required manual change rather than sub/replace to avoid corrupting other similar varialbe names (e.g. MASTERINSTANCE). This is a trivial change technically (a substitute/replace, plus tweaks in p4_vars.template), but impacts many files. |

Updated copyright date to 2015 Updated shell scripts to require an instance parameter to eliminate the need for calling p4master_run. Python and Perl still need it since you have to set the environment for them to run in. Incorporated comments from reviewers. Left the . instead of source as that seems more common in the field and has the same functionality. |
