Richard Su 1d6f3e3db8 Move rabbitmq-server cluster port
The Fedora rabbitmq-server package requires an ephemeral port to be
used. Otherwise the service will fail to start if selinux is in enforcing
mode.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1032595

This patch moves the cluster port from 5535 to 61000. Port 61000 is
also reserved through sysctl by setting it as the value for
ip_local_reserved_ports.

Install RabbitMQ server package and optionally configure it using Heat metadata.

Heat

We will create a random password and feed it to a Heat wait condition if directed by Metadata. The relevant Metadata would look something like this in Heat:

Metadata:
  rabbit:
    users:
      guest:
        username: guest
        tags: administrator
      nova:
        username: nova
        password: SuperSecret
        tags: 
          - administrator
          - monitoring
        permissions:
          conf: .*
          write: .*
          read: .*
    password_handle: {Ref: RabbitMQPasswordHandle}
    keepalive_disabled: true/false
    - Enable/Disable TCP keepalive on rabbitmq sockets (default is
    for keepalive to be enabled).

Using cfn-signal, we will feed back a generated password into the handle for use by other resources.

RabbitMQ Cluster

Additional parameters in heat template are required for each clustered node:

Metadata:
  rabbit:
    cookie: some_cookie
      - make sure same cookie is set for all nodes in cluster
    nodes:
      node0,node1

'rabbit.nodes' contains short hostnames of all nodes in RabbitMq cluster.

If a node has 'rabbit.nodes' set to true, this node is added into cluster with other nodes listed in 'rabbit.nodes'.

RabbitMQ inter-node communication is restricted to port 61000 only in config file (otherwise random ports would be used) to make sure this port can be enabled in firewall.

Due to bug http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1105850, we must use a port within the ephemeral port range (32768-61000).

Port 61000 is reserved by using sysctl to set net.ipv4.ip_local_reserved_ports to 61000.

Sample 2-node cluster definition:

node0:
  rabbit:
    cookie: some_cookie
    nodes:
      Fn::Join:
      - ','
      - - Fn::Select:
          - name
          - Fn::GetAtt:
            - node0
            - show
        - Fn::Select:
          - name
          - Fn::GetAtt:
            - node1
            - show

node1:
  rabbit:
    cookie: some_cookie
    nodes:
      Fn::Join:
      - ','
      - - Fn::Select:
          - name
          - Fn::GetAtt:
            - node0
            - show
        - Fn::Select:
          - name
          - Fn::GetAtt:
            - node1
            - show
