gcloud CLI installation failure using SLES 12 SPx for SAP Applications

[ab-mohamed]

Used cloud platform GCP

Used SLES4SAP version SLES 12 SP4 for SAP applications

Used client machine OS macOS

Expected behaviour vs observed behaviour a successful HANA HA cluster deployment

How to reproduce

1. Default deployment using the terraform apply --auto-approve command
2. The deployment was failed as shown in the Used terraform.tfvars section
3. gcloud was not configured correctly in the HANA nodes:

   
   ab-testing-vmhana01:~ # gcloud
   ERROR: gcloud failed to load: No module named 'typing'
   gcloud_main = _import_gcloud_main()
   import googlecloudsdk.gcloud_main
   from googlecloudsdk.calliope import base
   from googlecloudsdk.calliope import display
   from googlecloudsdk.calliope import display_taps
   from googlecloudsdk.core.resource import resource_printer_base
   from googlecloudsdk.core.resource import resource_projector
   import proto  # pylint: disable=g-import-not-at-top

   from proto.marshal.rules.enums import EnumRule
   from typing import Type

This usually indicates corruption in your gcloud installation or problems with your Python interpreter.

Please verify that the following is the path to a working Python 2.7 or 3.5+ executable: /usr/bin/python3

If it is not, please set the CLOUDSDK_PYTHON environment variable to point to a working Python 2.7 or 3.5+ executable.

If you are still experiencing problems, please reinstall the Cloud SDK using the instructions here: https://cloud.google.com/sdk/

4. Python 3.5+ is not available for SLES 12 SP4, so I used python 2.7:

ab-testing-vmhana01:~ # which python2.7 /usr/bin/python2.7

ab-testing-vmhana01:~ # export CLOUDSDK_PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2.7

ab-testing-vmhana01:~ # echo $CLOUDSDK_PYTHON /usr/bin/python2.7

5.  `gsutil` was not installed:

ab-testing-vmhana01:~ # ls -lh /usr/local/bin/ total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Aug 10 13:28 gcloud -> /opt/google-cloud-sdk/bin/gcloud lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Aug 10 13:28 gsutil -> /opt/google-cloud-sdk/bin/gsutil

ab-testing-vmhana01:~ # ls -lh /opt/google-cloud-sdk/bin/gsutil ls: cannot access '/opt/google-cloud-sdk/bin/gsutil': No such file or directory

ab-testing-vmhana01:~ # ls /opt/google-cloud-sdk/bin/ bootstrapping dev_appserver.py endpointscfg.py gcloud java_dev_appserver.sh

6. I reinstalled `gcloud` following the instructions in https://cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/install:

ab-testing-vmhana01:~ # rm -rf ~/.config/gcloud ab-testing-vmhana01:~ # rm -rf /opt/google-cloud-sdk/

ab-testing-vmhana01:~ # curl -O https://dl.google.com/dl/cloudsdk/channels/rapid/downloads/google-cloud-cli-397.0.0-linux- ab-testing-vmhana01:~ # tar xvf google-cloud-cli-397.0.0-linux-x86_64.tar.gz ab-testing-vmhana01:~ # cd google-cloud-sdk/ ab-testing-vmhana01:~/google-cloud-sdk # ./install.sh ab-testing-vmhana01:~/google-cloud-sdk # gcloud init

ab-testing-vmhana01:~ # gcloud init
ab-testing-vmhana01:~ # gsutil -m cp -r gs:///* /sapmedia/HANA ab-testing-vmhana01:~ # echo $? 0

[ab-mohamed]

I had a successful deployment using SLES 15 SP3 for SAP Applications. So, It seems to be an issue with the CLOUDSDK_PYTHON variable for SLES 12 SPx for SAP applications.

@ab-mohamed A fix is on the way. Fixing a few other SLES12 related things on the way.

[yeoldegrove]

886 will fix the issue

[yeoldegrove]

fixed in #886 and released in https://github.com/SUSE/ha-sap-terraform-deployments/releases/tag/8.1.6
