Right now every controller rotates fernet keys. This is nice because
should any controller die, we know the remaining ones will rotate the
keys. However, we are currently over-rotating the keys.
When we over rotate keys, we get logs like this:
This is not a recognized Fernet token <token> TokenNotFound
Most clients can recover and get a new token, but some clients (like
Nova passing tokens to other services) can't do that because it doesn't
have the password to regenerate a new token.
With three controllers, in crontab in keystone-fernet we see the once a day
correctly staggered across the three controllers:
ssh ctrl1 sudo cat /etc/kolla/keystone-fernet/crontab
0 0 * * * /usr/bin/fernet-rotate.sh
ssh ctrl2 sudo cat /etc/kolla/keystone-fernet/crontab
0 8 * * * /usr/bin/fernet-rotate.sh
ssh ctrl3 sudo cat /etc/kolla/keystone-fernet/crontab
0 16 * * * /usr/bin/fernet-rotate.sh
Currently with three controllers we have this keystone config:
[token]
expiration = 86400 (although, keystone default is one hour)
allow_expired_window = 172800 (this is the keystone default)
[fernet_tokens]
max_active_keys = 4
Currently, kolla-ansible configures key rotation according to the following:
rotation_interval = token_expiration / num_hosts
This means we rotate keys more quickly the more hosts we have, which doesn't
make much sense.
Keystone docs state:
max_active_keys =
((token_expiration + allow_expired_window) / rotation_interval) + 2
For details see:
https://docs.openstack.org/keystone/stein/admin/fernet-token-faq.html
Rotation is based on pushing out a staging key, so should any server
start using that key, other servers will consider that valid. Then each
server in turn starts using the staging key, each in term demoting the
existing primary key to a secondary key. Eventually you prune the
secondary keys when there is no token in the wild that would need to be
decrypted using that key. So this all makes sense.
This change adds new variables for fernet_token_allow_expired_window and
fernet_key_rotation_interval, so that we can correctly calculate the
correct number of active keys. We now set the default rotation interval
so as to minimise the number of active keys to 3 - one primary, one
secondary, one buffer.
This change also fixes the fernet cron job generator, which was broken
in the following cases:
* requesting an interval of more than 1 day resulted in no jobs
* requesting an interval of more than 60 minutes, unless an exact
multiple of 60 minutes, resulted in no jobs
It should now be possible to request any interval up to a week divided
by the number of hosts.

Kolla-Ansible Overview
The Kolla-Ansible is a deliverable project separated from Kolla project.
Kolla-Ansible deploys OpenStack services and infrastructure components in Docker containers.
Kolla's mission statement is:
To provide production-ready containers and deployment tools for operating
OpenStack clouds.Kolla is highly opinionated out of the box, but allows for complete customization. This permits operators with little experience to deploy OpenStack quickly and as experience grows modify the OpenStack configuration to suit the operator's exact requirements.
Getting Started
Learn about Kolla-Ansible by reading the documentation online Kolla-Ansible.
Get started by reading the Developer Quickstart.
