NethServer 6

Implementation on branch 2739.
Actually the backup is restored in background to avoid errors during httpd-admin restart.

TODO: Add a process tracker to the web interface for the restore process.

Pushed on branch b2739 (renames 2739).

Merged b2739 with master

Test case 1

• Install nethserver-directory
• Upgrade the modified package version
• Create an account user1, set its props, enable shell access, set password
• Verify user1 can login by ssh
• From Backup (configuration) page create the configuration backup
• Check the backup archive exists:

     #find /var/lib/nethserver/backup/ -type f -printf '%-42f %Tc\n'
  backup-config.tar.xz                       Wed 08 Oct 2014 05:52:26 PM CEST
  backup-config.tar.xz.md5                   Wed 08 Oct 2014 05:52:27 PM CEST
  backup-config.tar.xz-content.md5           Wed 08 Oct 2014 05:52:27 PM CEST
  

Test case2

[Continues from case 1]

• Delete user1
• Verify user1 cannot login
• Restore the configuration backup
• Verify user1 can login again
• Verify user1 entry exists in accounts DB

Test case 3

• Create a new account user2, give it shell access and password
• Verify user2 can login

In nethserver-testing:
nethserver-backup-config-1.2.0-11.0gitfe66e39e.ns6.noarch.rpm

Add UI success/failure notifications.

Not really MODIFIED: failure notifications work out-of-the-box.

In nethserver-testing:
nethserver-backup-config-1.2.0-11.0gitfe66e39e.ns6.noarch.rpm (unmodified, see above)
nethserver-base-2.4.0-8.0git85365a56.ns6.noarch.rpm (was missing)

Actual implementation does not rebuild the backup archive when a file is added (or removed) to the set.

• backup file does not exist
• file list is changed (modification to include/exclude files)
• file contents is changed (md5sum doesn't match)

Test case2

[Continues from case 1]

• Delete user1
• Verify user1 cannot login
• Restore the configuration backup
• Verify user1 can login again
• Verify user1 entry exists in accounts DB

Test case 3

• Create a new account user2, give it shell access and password
• Verify user2 can login

• Install on a clean machine
• Execute backup: backup-config
• Execute backup again
• Check the backup file is not changed

Test case 5

[Continues from case 4]

• Add a file or directory to /etc/backup-config.d/custom.include
  

  echo "/etc/motd" >> /etc/backup-config.d/custom.include
  

• Execute backup
• Check the file is in the backup

Test case 6

[Continues from case 5]

• Change the date of the added file:
  

  touch /etc/motd
  

• Execute the backup
• Check the backup is not changed

Test case 7

[Continues from case 6]

• Modify /etc/motd
  

  echo "test" >  /etc/motd
  

• Execute the backup
• Check the backup is updated

• Install a new module:
  

  yum install nethserver-nut
  

• Execute the backup
• Check the backup is updated

NOTE: Hylafax configuration forces a new configuration backup every time a fax is sent or received.

I restored the config backup on a different server, network config has been correctly kept intact.
After I installed some modules (mail server), all accounts appeared.
I also restored on the same system, reverting config.
