Hello all, You may know that for deployment configuration we are serializing additional prefix for controller role (primary), with the goal of deployment order control (primary-controller always should be deployed before secondaries) and some condiions in fuel-library code.
However, we cannot guarantee that primary controller will be always the same node, because it is not business of nailgun to control elections of primary. Essentially user should not rely on nailgun information to find primary, but we need to persist node elected as primary in first deployment to resolve orchestration issues (when new node added to cluster we should not mark it as primary). So we called primary-controller - "internal" role, which means that it is not exposed to users (or external developers). But with introduction of plugins and granular deployment, in my opinion, we need to be able to specify that task should run specifically on primary, or on secondaries. Alternative to this approach would be - always run task on all controllers, and let task itself to verify that it is executed on primary or not. Is it possible to have significantly different sets of tasks for controller and primary-controller? And same goes for mongo, and i think we had primary for swift also.
