"available" from "keep" method always empty since
"walk" on "keyIndex" only returns true.
"available" should be populated with all revisions to be

Previous behavior is when server returns errors, retry
wrapper does not do anything, while passively expecting
balancer to gray-list the isolated endpoint. This is
problematic when multiple endpoints are passed, and
network partition happens.
This patch adds 'endpointError' method to 'balancer' interface
to actively(possibly even before health-check API gets called)
handle RPC errors and gray-list endpoints for the time being,
thus speeding up the endpoint switch.
This is safe in a single-endpoint case, because balancer will
retry no matter what in such case.

TestRecvMsgPreVote was intended to be introduced in

Setting the ETCDCTL_API=3, then calling etcdctl was unwieldy and not
thread safe; all ctl v3 tests had to go through the ctlv3 wrapper and
could not easily mix with v2 commands.
If Close() is called before Cancel()'s cancel() completes, the
watch channel will be closed while the watch is still in the
synced list. If there's an event, etcd will try to write to a
closed channel. Instead, remove the watch from the bookkeeping
structures only after cancel completes, so Close() will always
call it.

grpc 1.3 uses MaxMsgSize() to limit received message size. However, grpc 1.4 introduces a 4mb default limit on send message size. In etcd, server shouldn't be limit size of message that it can be sent. Hence, set maximum size of send message using MaxSendMsgSize().
The penalty for TLS is non-trivial with race detection enabled.
Weakening the test certs from 4096-bit RSA to 2048-bit gives ~4x faster

Update interacting_v3.md
Making it clear to the user that keys created via the v2 API are not readable by the etcdctl with the v3 API. A etcdctl v3 get of a v2 key key exits with 0 and no data, which is quite confusing, hopefully this just makes that it a bit clearer if the user upgraded etcd 3 in the past (and forget some of the 2.3 to 3.0 to 3.1 to 3.2 upgrade details) but never updated the API they used as v2 was the default and happen to trying to figure out wtf, this is a further reminder of that backward incompatibility.
Adding retry to acquire on failure causes Get to now retry until a
connection can be reestablished to the etcd server, causing the
timeout to trigger and fail the test.
Gets should retry on transient failure, but the txn inserts a write, skipping
the retry logic in the client. Instead, check the error if the txn should be
retried.

TestNodeWithSmallerTermCanCompleteElection tests the scenario where a
node that has been partitioned away (and fallen behind) rejoins the
cluster at about the same time the leader node gets partitioned away.
Previously the cluster would come to a standstill when run with PreVote
enabled.
When responding to Msg{Pre,}Vote messages we now include the term from
the message, not the local term. To see why consider the case where a
single node was previously partitioned away and it's local term is now
of date. If we include the local term (recall that for pre-votes we
don't update the local term), the (pre-)campaigning node on the other
end will proceed to ignore the message (it ignores all out of date
messages).
The term in the original message and current local term are the same in
the case of regular votes, but different for pre-votes.
NB: Had to change TestRecvMsgVote to include pb.Message.Term when
sending MsgVote messages. The new sanity checks on MsgVoteResp
(m.Term != 0) would panic with the old test as raft.Term would be equal
to 0 when responding with MsgVoteResp messages.
When digging into etcd/boltdb "storage space exceeded" issues, this metric may help answer questions about if/when compactions occured and how much data was freed.

It's unlikely a user goroutine will leak on file close; whitelist it.
Both grpc.Server.Stop and grpc.Server.GracefulStop close the listeners
first, to stop accepting the new connections. GracefulStop blocks until
all clients close their open transports(connections). Unary RPCs
only take a few seconds to finish. Stream RPCs, like watch, might never
close the connections from client side, thus making gRPC server wait
forever.
This patch still calls GracefulStop, but waits up to 10s before manually
closing the open transports.

Calling a WaitGroup.Done() in a defer will sometimes trigger the leak

This happens enough in CI to be irritating; whitelist it and ignore.
From go-grpc v1.2.0, the number of max streams per client is set to 100

Problem Observed
----------------
When there is no etcd process behind the proxy,
clients repeat resending lease grant requests without delay.
This behavior can cause abnormal resource consumption on CPU/RAM and
network.
Problem Detail
--------------
`LeaseGrant()` uses a bare protobuf client to forward requests.
However, it doesn't use `grpc.FailFast(false)`, which means the method returns
an `Unavailable` error immediately when no etcd process is available.
In clientv3, `Unavailable` errors are not considered the "Halt" error,
and library retries the request without delay.
Both clients and the proxy consume much CPU cycles to process retry requests.
Resolution
----------
Add `grpc.FailFast(false))` to `LeaseGrant()` of the `leaseProxy`.
This makes the proxy not to return immediately when no etcd process is
available. Clients will simply timeout requests instead.

- [Server accepts connections if IP matches, without checking DNS entries](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/8223). For instance, if peer cert contains IP addresses and DNS names in Subject Alternative Name (SAN) field, and the remote IP address matches one of those IP addresses, server just accepts connection without further checking the DNS names.
- [Server supports reverse-lookup on wildcard DNS `SAN`](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/8281). For instance, if peer cert contains only DNS names (no IP addresses) in Subject Alternative Name (SAN) field, server first reverse-lookups the remote IP address to get a list of names mapping to that address (e.g. `nslookup IPADDR`). Then accepts the connection if those names have a matching name with peer cert's DNS names (either by exact or wildcard match). If none is matched, server forward-lookups each DNS entry in peer cert (e.g. look up `example.default.svc` when the entry is `*.example.default.svc`), and accepts connection only when the host's resolved addresses have the matching IP address with the peer's remote IP address.
- To support [CommonName(CN) based auth](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/issues/8262) for inter peer connection.
- [Swap priority](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/8594) of cert CommonName(CN) and username + password.
- To address ["username and password specified in the request should take priority over CN in the cert"](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/issues/8584).
- Protect [lease revoke with auth](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/8031).
- Provide user's role on [auth permission error](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/8164).
- Fix [auth store panic with disabled token](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/8695).
- Update `golang.org/x/crypto/bcrypt` (see [golang/crypto@6c586e1](https://github.com/golang/crypto/commit/6c586e17d90a7d08bbbc4069984180dce3b04117)).
### Fixed(v2)
- [Fail-over v2 client](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/8519) to next endpoint on [oneshot failure](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/issues/8515).
- [Put back `/v2/machines`](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/8062) endpoint for python-etcd wrapper.
### Fixed(v3)

When an etcd client switches endpoints, responses to serializable reads may go backward in time if the new endpoint is lagging behind the rest of the cluster. The ordering wrapper caches the current cluster revision from response headers. If a response revision is less than the cached revision, the client selects another endpoint and reissues the read. Enable in grpcproxy with `--experimental-serializable-ordering`.
Users mostly interact with etcd by putting or getting the value of a key. This section describes how to do that by using etcdctl, a command line tool for interacting with etcd server. The concepts described here should apply to the gRPC APIs or client library APIs.
By default, etcdctl talks to the etcd server with the v2 API for backward compatibility. For etcdctl to speak to etcd using the v3 API, the API version must be set to version 3 via the `ETCDCTL_API` environment variable.

## Local standalone cluster
Deploying an etcd cluster as a standalone cluster is straightforward. Start it with just one command:
### Starting a cluster
Run the following to deploy an etcd cluster as a standalone cluster:
```
$ ./etcd
...
```
The started etcd member listens on `localhost:2379`for client requests.
If the `etcd` binary is not present in the current working directory, it might be located either at `$GOPATH/bin/etcd` or at `/usr/local/bin/etcd`. Run the command appropriately.
To interact with the started cluster by using etcdctl:
The running etcd member listens on `localhost:2379` for client requests.
### Interacting with the cluster
Use `etcdctl` to interact with the running cluster:
1. Configure the environment to have `ETCDCTL_API=3` so `etcdctl` uses the etcd API version 3 instead of defaulting to version 2.
```
# use API version 3
$ export ETCDCTL_API=3
```
2. Store an example key-value pair in the cluster:
```
$ ./etcdctl put foo bar
OK
```
If OK is printed, storing key-value pair is successful.
3. Retrieve the value of `foo`:
```
$ ./etcdctl get foo
bar
```
If `bar` is returned, interaction with the etcd cluster is working as expected.

#### Do clients have to send requests to the etcd leader?
### Do clients have to send requests to the etcd leader?
[Raft][raft] is leader-based; the leader handles all client requests which need cluster consensus. However, the client does not need to know which node is the leader. Any request that requires consensus sent to a follower is automatically forwarded to the leader. Requests that do not require consensus (e.g., serialized reads) can be processed by any cluster member.

### Why doesn't changing `--listen-peer-urls` or `--initial-advertise-peer-urls` update the advertised peer URLs in `etcdctl member list`?
A member's advertised peer URLs come from `--initial-advertise-peer-urls` on initial cluster boot. Changing the listen peer URLs or the initial advertise peers after booting the member won't affect the exported advertise peer URLs since changes must go through quorum to avoid membership configuration split brain. Use `etcdctl member update` to update a member's peer URLs.
### Deployment
## Deployment
#### System requirements
### System requirements
Since etcd writes data to disk, SSD is highly recommended. To prevent performance degradation or unintentionally overloading the key-value store, etcd enforces a 2GB default storage size quota, configurable up to 8GB. To avoid swapping or running out of memory, the machine should have at least as much RAM to cover the quota. At CoreOS, an etcd cluster is usually deployed on dedicated CoreOS Container Linux machines with dual-core processors, 2GB of RAM, and 80GB of SSD *at the very least*. **Note that performance is intrinsically workload dependent; please test before production deployment**. See [hardware][hardware-setup] for more recommendations.
Most stable production environment is Linux operating system with amd64 architecture; see [supported platform][supported-platform] for more.
#### Why an odd number of cluster members?
### Why an odd number of cluster members?
An etcd cluster needs a majority of nodes, a quorum, to agree on updates to the cluster state. For a cluster with n members, quorum is (n/2)+1. For any odd-sized cluster, adding one node will always increase the number of nodes necessary for quorum. Although adding a node to an odd-sized cluster appears better since there are more machines, the fault tolerance is worse since exactly the same number of nodes may fail without losing quorum but there are more nodes that can fail. If the cluster is in a state where it can't tolerate any more failures, adding a node before removing nodes is dangerous because if the new node fails to register with the cluster (e.g., the address is misconfigured), quorum will be permanently lost.
#### What is maximum cluster size?
### What is maximum cluster size?
Theoretically, there is no hard limit. However, an etcd cluster probably should have no more than seven nodes. [Google Chubby lock service][chubby], similar to etcd and widely deployed within Google for many years, suggests running five nodes. A 5-member etcd cluster can tolerate two member failures, which is enough in most cases. Although larger clusters provide better fault tolerance, the write performance suffers because data must be replicated across more machines.
#### What is failure tolerance?
### What is failure tolerance?
An etcd cluster operates so long as a member quorum can be established. If quorum is lost through transient network failures (e.g., partitions), etcd automatically and safely resumes once the network recovers and restores quorum; Raft enforces cluster consistency. For power loss, etcd persists the Raft log to disk; etcd replays the log to the point of failure and resumes cluster participation. For permanent hardware failure, the node may be removed from the cluster through [runtime reconfiguration][runtime reconfiguration].
@ -54,19 +54,19 @@ It is recommended to have an odd number of members in a cluster. An odd-size clu
Adding a member to bring the size of cluster up to an even number doesn't buy additional fault tolerance. Likewise, during a network partition, an odd number of members guarantees that there will always be a majority partition that can continue to operate and be the source of truth when the partition ends.
#### Does etcd work in cross-region or cross data center deployments?
### Does etcd work in cross-region or cross data center deployments?
Deploying etcd across regions improves etcd's fault tolerance since members are in separate failure domains. The cost is higher consensus request latency from crossing data center boundaries. Since etcd relies on a member quorum for consensus, the latency from crossing data centers will be somewhat pronounced because at least a majority of cluster members must respond to consensus requests. Additionally, cluster data must be replicated across all peers, so there will be bandwidth cost as well.
With longer latencies, the default etcd configuration may cause frequent elections or heartbeat timeouts. See [tuning] for adjusting timeouts for high latency deployments.

On the other hand, if the downed member is removed from cluster membership first, the number of members becomes 2 and the quorum remains at 2. Following that removal by adding a new member will also keep the quorum steady at 2.

#### Why won't etcd accept my membership changes?
### Why won't etcd accept my membership changes?
etcd sets `strict-reconfig-check` in order to reject reconfiguration requests that would cause quorum loss. Abandoning quorum is really risky (especially when the cluster is already unhealthy). Although it may be tempting to disable quorum checking if there's quorum loss to add a new member, this could lead to full fledged cluster inconsistency. For many applications, this will make the problem even worse ("disk geometry corruption" being a candidate for most terrifying).
#### Why does etcd lose its leader from disk latency spikes?
### Why does etcd lose its leader from disk latency spikes?
This is intentional; disk latency is part of leader liveness. Suppose the cluster leader takes a minute to fsync a raft log update to disk, but the etcd cluster has a one second election timeout. Even though the leader can process network messages within the election interval (e.g., send heartbeats), it's effectively unavailable because it can't commit any new proposals; it's waiting on the slow disk. If the cluster frequently loses its leader due to disk latencies, try [tuning][tuning] the disk settings or etcd time parameters.
#### What does the etcd warning "request ignored (cluster ID mismatch)" mean?
### What does the etcd warning "request ignored (cluster ID mismatch)" mean?
Every new etcd cluster generates a new cluster ID based on the initial cluster configuration and a user-provided unique `initial-cluster-token` value. By having unique cluster ID's, etcd is protected from cross-cluster interaction which could corrupt the cluster.
Usually this warning happens after tearing down an old cluster, then reusing some of the peer addresses for the new cluster. If any etcd process from the old cluster is still running it will try to contact the new cluster. The new cluster will recognize a cluster ID mismatch, then ignore the request and emit this warning. This warning is often cleared by ensuring peer addresses among distinct clusters are disjoint.

etcd uses a leader-based consensus protocol for consistent data replication and log execution. Cluster members elect a single leader, all other members become followers. The elected leader must periodically send heartbeats to its followers to maintain its leadership. Followers infer leader failure if no heartbeats are received within an election interval and trigger an election.

These intervals are often referred to as "ranges" in etcd3. Operations over ranges are more powerful than operations on directories. Like a hierarchical store, intervals support single key lookups via `[a, a+1)` (e.g., ['a', 'a\x00') looks up 'a') and directory lookups by encoding keys by directory depth. In addition to those operations, intervals can also encode prefixes; for example the interval `['a', 'b')` looks up all keys prefixed by the string 'a'.
By convention, ranges for a Request are denoted by the fields `key` and `range_end`. The `key` field is the first key of the range and should be non-empty. The `range_end` is the key following the last key of the range. If `range_end` is not given or empty, the range is defined to contain only the key argument. If `range_end` is `key` plus one (e.g., "aa"+1 == "ab", "a\xff"+1 == "b"), then the range represents all keys prefixed with key. If both `key` and `range_end` are '\0', then range represents all keys. If `range_end` is '\0', the range is all keys greater than or equal to the key argument.

Watches are long-running requests and use gRPC streams to stream event data. A watch stream is bi-directional; the client writes to the stream to establish watches and reads to receive watch event.

This multiplexing helps reducing the memory footprint and connection overhead on the core etcd cluster.

A single watch stream can multiplex many distinct watches by tagging events with per-watch identifiers. This multiplexing helps reducing the memory footprint and connection overhead on the core etcd cluster.
Watches make three guarantees about events:
* Ordered - events are ordered by revision; an event will never appear on a watch if it precedes an event in time that has already been posted.
etcd is designed to reliably store infrequently updated data and provide reliable watch queries. etcd exposes previous versions of key-value pairs to support inexpensive snapshots and watch history events (“time travel queries”). A persistent, multi-version, concurrency-control data model is a good fit for these use cases.
etcd stores data in a multiversion [persistent][persistent-ds] key-value store. The persistent key-value store preserves the previous version of a key-value pair when its value is superseded with new data. The key-value store is effectively immutable; its operations do not update the structure in-place, but instead always generates a new updated structure. All past versions of keys are still accessible and watchable after modification. To prevent the data store from growing indefinitely over time from maintaining old versions, the store may be compacted to shed the oldest versions of superseded data.

All past versions of keys are still accessible and watchable after modification. To prevent the data store from growing indefinitely over time and from maintaining old versions, the store may be compacted to shed the oldest versions of superseded data.
### Logical view
The store’s logical view is a flat binary key space. The key space has a lexically sorted index on byte string keys so range queries are inexpensive.
The key space maintains multiple revisions. Each atomic mutative operation (e.g., a transaction operation may contain multiple operations) creates a new revision on the key space. All data held by previous revisions remains unchanged. Old versions of key can still be accessed through previous revisions. Likewise, revisions are indexed as well; ranging over revisions with watchers is efficient. If the store is compacted to recover space, revisions before the compact revision will be removed.

Likewise, revisions are indexed as well; ranging over revisions with watchers is efficient. If the store is compacted to save space, revisions before the compact revision will be removed.
A key’s lifetime spans a generation. Each key may have one or multiple generations. Creating a key increments the generation of that key, starting at 1 if the key never existed. Deleting a key generates a key tombstone, concluding the key’s current generation. Each modification of a key creates a new version of the key. Once a compaction happens, any generation ended before the given revision will be removed and values set before the compaction revision except the latest one will be removed.

The name "etcd" originated from two ideas, the unix "/etc" folder and "d"istibuted systems. The "/etc" folder is a place to store configuration data for a single system whereas etcd stores configuration information for large scale distributed systems. Hence, a "d"istributed "/etc" is "etcd".
etcd stores metadata in a consistent and fault-tolerant way. Distributed systems use etcd as a consistent key-value store for configuration management, service discovery, and coordinating distributed work. Common distributed patterns using etcd include [leader election][etcd-etcdctl-elect], [distributed locks][etcd-etcdctl-lock], and monitoring machine liveness.

These are systems that will never tolerate split-brain operation and are willing to sacrifice availability to achieve this end. etcd stores metadata in a consistent and fault-tolerant way.

- [Kubernetes][kubernetes] stores configuration data into etcd for service discovery and cluster management; etcd's consistency is crucial for correctly scheduling and operating services. The Kubernetes API server persists cluster state into etcd. It uses etcd's watch API to monitor the cluster and roll out critical configuration changes.
## etcd versus other key-value stores
When deciding whether to use etcd as a key-value store, it’s worth keeping in mind etcd’s main goal. Namely, etcd is designed as a general substrate for large scale distributed systems. These are systems that will never tolerate split-brain operation and are willing to sacrifice availability to achieve this end. An etcd cluster is meant to provide consistent key-value storage with best of class stability, reliability, scalability and performance. The upshot of this focus is many [organizations][production-users] already use etcd to implement production systems such as container schedulers, service discovery services, distributed data storage, and more.
## Comparison chart
Perhaps etcd already seems like a good fit, but as with all technological decisions, proceed with caution. Please note this documentation is written by the etcd team. Although the ideal is a disinterested comparison of technology and features, the authors’ expertise and biases obviously favor etcd. Use only as directed.

Failures are common in a large deployment of machines. A machine fails when its hardware or software malfunctions. Multiple machines fail together when there are power failures or network issues. Multiple kinds of failures can also happen at once; it is almost impossible to enumerate all possible failure cases.
The space quota in `etcd` ensures the cluster operates in a reliable fashion. Without a space quota, `etcd` may suffer from poor performance if the keyspace grows excessively large, or it may simply run out of storage space, leading to unpredictable cluster behavior. If the keyspace's backend database for any member exceeds the space quota, `etcd` raises a cluster-wide alarm that puts the cluster into a maintenance mode which only accepts key reads and deletes. Only after freeing enough space in the keyspace and defragmenting the backend database, along with clearing the space quota alarm can the cluster resume normal operation.

Each etcd server provides local monitoring information on its client port through http endpoints. The monitoring data is useful for both system health checking and cluster debugging.
## Debug endpoint
If `--debug` is set, the etcd server exports debugging information on its client port under the `/debug` path. Take care when setting `--debug`, since there will be degraded performance and verbose logging.
The `/debug/pprof` endpoint is the standard go runtime profiling endpoint. This can be used to profile CPU, heap, mutex, and goroutine utilization. For example, here `go tool pprof` gets the top 10 functions where etcd spends its time:

etcd is designed to withstand machine failures. An etcd cluster automatically recovers from temporary failures (e.g., machine reboots) and tolerates up to *(N-1)/2* permanent failures for a cluster of N members. When a member permanently fails, whether due to hardware failure or disk corruption, it loses access to the cluster. If the cluster permanently loses more than *(N-1)/2* members then it disastrously fails, irrevocably losing quorum.

### Restoring a cluster
## Restoring a cluster
To restore a cluster, all that is needed is a single snapshot "db" file. A cluster restore with `etcdctl snapshot restore` creates new etcd data directories; all members should restore using the same snapshot. Restoring overwrites some snapshot metadata (specifically, the member ID and cluster ID); the member loses its former identity. This metadata overwrite prevents the new member from inadvertently joining an existing cluster. Therefore in order to start a cluster from a snapshot, the restore must start a new logical cluster.
etcd comes with support for incremental runtime reconfiguration, which allows users to update the membership of the cluster at run time.
Reconfiguration requests can only be processed when a majority of cluster members are functioning. It is **highly recommended** to always have a cluster size greater than two in production. It is unsafe to remove a member from a two member cluster. The majority of a two member cluster is also two. If there is a failure during the removal process, the cluster might not able to make progress and need to [restart from majority failure][majority failure].

Similar protection is provided to prevent adding new members by mistake. If a new etcd member attempts to join the cluster before the cluster has accepted the configuration change,, it will not be accepted by the cluster.

Without the explicit workflow around cluster membership etcd would be vulnerable to unexpected cluster membership changes. For example, if etcd is running under an init system such as systemd, etcd would be restarted after being removed via the membership API, and attempt to rejoin the cluster on startup. This cycle would continue every time a member is removed via the API and systemd is set to restart etcd after failing, which is unexpected.

It is entirely possible to force removing the failed members from the existing cluster to recover. However, we decided not to support this method since it bypasses the normal consensus committing phase, which is unsafe. If the member to remove is not actually dead or force removed through different members in the same cluster, etcd will end up with a diverged cluster with same clusterID. This is very dangerous and hard to debug/fix afterwards.
With a correct deployment, the possibility of permanent majority lose is very low. But it is a severe enough problem that worth special care. We strongly suggest reading the [disaster recovery documentation][disaster-recovery] and prepare for permanent majority lose before putting etcd into production.

This is useful when replacing expiry certs without stopping etcd servers; it can be done by overwriting old certs with new ones. Refreshing certs for every connection should not have too much overhead, but can be improved in the future, with caching layer. Example tests can be found [here](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/blob/b041ce5d514a4b4aaeefbffb008f0c7570a18986/integration/v3_grpc_test.go#L1601-L1757).

when peer B's actual IP address is `10.138.0.2`, not `10.138.0.27`. When peer B tries to join the cluster, peer A will reject B with the error `x509: certificate is valid for 10.138.0.27, not 10.138.0.2`, because B's remote IP address does not match the one in Subject Alternative Name (SAN) field.
Since [v3.2.0](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#v320-2017-06-09), [server resolves TLS `DNSNames` when checking `SAN`](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/7767). For instance, if peer cert contains any DNS names in Subject Alternative Name (SAN) field, server authenticates a peer only when forward-lookups on those DNS names have matching IP with the remote IP address. For example, peer B's CSR (with `cfssl`) is:
```json
{
...
"hosts":[
"b.com"
],
...
}
```
when peer B's remote IP address is `10.138.0.2`. When peer B tries to join the cluster, peer A looks up the incoming host `b.com` to get the list of IP addresses (e.g. `dig b.com`). And rejects B if the list does not contain the IP `10.138.0.2`, with the error `tls: 10.138.0.2 does not match any of DNSNames ["b.com"]`.
Since [v3.2.2](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#v322-2017-07-07), [server accepts connections if IP matches, without checking DNS entries](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/8223). For instance, if peer cert contains IP addresses and DNS names in Subject Alternative Name (SAN) field, and the remote IP address matches one of those IP addresses, server just accepts connection without further checking the DNS names. For example, peer B's CSR (with `cfssl`) is:
```json
{
...
"hosts":[
"invalid.domain",
"10.138.0.2"
],
...
}
```
when peer B's remote IP address is `10.138.0.2` and `invalid.domain` is a invalid host. When peer B tries to join the cluster, peer A successfully authenticates B, since Subject Alternative Name (SAN) field has a valid matching IP address. See [issue#8206](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/issues/8206) for more detail.
Since [v3.2.5](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#v325-2017-08-04), [server supports reverse-lookup on wildcard DNS `SAN`](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/8281). For instance, if peer cert contains only DNS names (no IP addresses) in Subject Alternative Name (SAN) field, server first reverse-lookups the remote IP address to get a list of names mapping to that address (e.g. `nslookup IPADDR`). Then accepts the connection if those names have a matching name with peer cert's DNS names (either by exact or wildcard match). If none is matched, server forward-lookups each DNS entry in peer cert (e.g. look up `example.default.svc` when the entry is `*.example.default.svc`), and accepts connection only when the host's resolved addresses have the matching IP address with the peer's remote IP address. For example, peer B's CSR (with `cfssl`) is:
```json
{
...
"hosts":[
"*.example.default.svc",
"*.example.default.svc.cluster.local"
],
...
}
```
when peer B's remote IP address is `10.138.0.2`. When peer B tries to join the cluster, peer A reverse-lookup the IP `10.138.0.2` to get the list of host names. And either exact or wildcard match the host names with peer B's cert DNS names in Subject Alternative Name (SAN) field. If none of reverse/forward lookups worked, it returns an error `"tls: "10.138.0.2" does not match any of DNSNames ["*.example.default.svc","*.example.default.svc.cluster.local"]`. See [issue#8268](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/issues/8268) for more detail.

### Client upgrade checklists
### Upgrade checklists
3.2 introduces two breaking changes.
Highlighted breaking changes in 3.2.
#### Change in gRPC dependency (>=3.2.10)
3.2.10 or later now requires [grpc/grpc-go](https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/releases) `v1.7.5` (<=3.2.9 requires `v1.2.1`).
##### Deprecate `grpclog.Logger`
`grpclog.Logger` has been deprecated in favor of [`grpclog.LoggerV2`](https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/blob/master/grpclog/loggerv2.go). `clientv3.Logger` is now `grpclog.LoggerV2`.
// log.New above cannot be used (not implement grpclog.LoggerV2 interface)
```
##### Deprecate `grpc.ErrClientConnTimeout`
Previously, `grpc.ErrClientConnTimeout` error is returned on client dial time-outs. 3.2 instead returns `context.DeadlineExceeded` (see [#8504](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/issues/8504)).
Before
```go
// expect dial time-out on ipv4 blackhole
_,err:=clientv3.New(clientv3.Config{
Endpoints:[]string{"http://254.0.0.1:12345"},
DialTimeout:2*time.Second
})
iferr==grpc.ErrClientConnTimeout{
// handle errors
}
```
After
```go
_,err:=clientv3.New(clientv3.Config{
Endpoints:[]string{"http://254.0.0.1:12345"},
DialTimeout:2*time.Second
})
iferr==context.DeadlineExceeded{
// handle errors
}
```
#### Change in maximum request size limits (>=3.2.10)
3.2.10 and 3.2.11 allow custom request size limits in server side. >=3.2.12 allows custom request size limits for both server and **client side**.
Server-side request limits can be configured with `--max-request-bytes` flag:
```bash
# limits request size to 1.5 KiB
etcd --max-request-bytes 1536
# client writes exceeding 1.5 KiB will be rejected
etcdctl put foo [LARGE VALUE...]
# etcdserver: request is too large
```
Or configure `embed.Config.MaxRequestBytes` field:
// client reads exceeding "MaxCallRecvMsgSize" will be rejected from client-side
_,err=cli.Get(ctx,"foo",clientv3.WithPrefix())
err.Error()=="rpc error: code = ResourceExhausted desc = grpc: received message larger than max (5240509 vs. 3145728)"
```
**If not specified, client-side send limit defaults to 2 MiB (1.5 MiB + gRPC overhead bytes) and receive limit to `math.MaxInt32`**. Please see [clientv3 godoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/coreos/etcd/clientv3#Config) for more detail.
#### Change in raw gRPC client wrappers
3.2.12 or later changes the function signatures of `clientv3` gRPC client wrapper. This change was needed to support [custom `grpc.CallOption` on message size limits](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/9047).
Before and after
```diff
-func NewKVFromKVClient(remote pb.KVClient) KV {
+func NewKVFromKVClient(remote pb.KVClient, c *Client) KV {
+func NewWatchFromWatchClient(wc pb.WatchClient, c *Client) Watcher {
```
#### Change in `--listen-peer-urls` and `--listen-client-urls`
3.2 now rejects domains names for `--listen-peer-urls` and `--listen-client-urls` (3.1 only prints out warnings), since domain name is invalid for network interface binding. Make sure that those URLs are properly formated as `scheme://IP:port`.
See [issue #6336](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/issues/6336) for more contexts.
#### Change in `clientv3.Lease.TimeToLive` API
Previously, `clientv3.Lease.TimeToLive` API returned `lease.ErrLeaseNotFound` on non-existent lease ID. 3.2 instead returns TTL=-1 in its response and no error (see [#7305](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/7305)).
@ -30,6 +188,8 @@ resp.TTL == -1

```
#### Change in `clientv3.NewFromConfigFile`
`clientv3.NewFromConfigFile` is moved to `yaml.NewConfig`.
In the general case, upgrading from etcd 3.2 to 3.3 can be a zero-downtime, rolling upgrade:
- one by one, stop the etcd v3.2 processes and replace them with etcd v3.3 processes
- after running all v3.3 processes, new features in v3.3 are available to the cluster
Before [starting an upgrade](#upgrade-procedure), read through the rest of this guide to prepare.
### Upgrade checklists
Highlighted breaking changes in 3.3.
#### Change in `etcdserver.EtcdServer` struct
`etcdserver.EtcdServer` has changed the type of its member field `*etcdserver.ServerConfig` to `etcdserver.ServerConfig`. And `etcdserver.NewServer` now takes `etcdserver.ServerConfig`, instead of `*etcdserver.ServerConfig`.
Before and after (e.g. [k8s.io/kubernetes/test/e2e_node/services/etcd.go](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/release-1.8/test/e2e_node/services/etcd.go#L50-L55))
Before gRPC server warnings were logged in etcdserver.
```
WARNING: 2017/11/02 11:35:51 grpc: addrConn.resetTransport failed to create client transport: connection error: desc = "transport: Error while dialing dial tcp: operation was canceled"; Reconnecting to {localhost:2379 <nil>}
WARNING: 2017/11/02 11:35:51 grpc: addrConn.resetTransport failed to create client transport: connection error: desc = "transport: Error while dialing dial tcp: operation was canceled"; Reconnecting to {localhost:2379 <nil>}
```
From v3.3, gRPC server logs are disabled by default.
```go
import"github.com/coreos/etcd/embed"
cfg:=&embed.Config{Debug:false}
cfg.SetupLogging()
```
Set `embed.Config.Debug` field to `true` to enable gRPC server logs.
#### Change in `/health` endpoint response value
Previously, `[endpoint]:[client-port]/health` returned manually marshaled JSON value. 3.3 instead defines [`etcdhttp.Health`](https://godoc.org/github.com/coreos/etcd/etcdserver/api/etcdhttp#Health) struct and returns properly encoded JSON value with errors, if any.
Before
```bash
$ curl http://localhost:2379/health
{"health": "true"}
```
After
```bash
$ curl http://localhost:2379/health
{"health":true}
# Or
{"health":false,"errors":["NOSPACE"]}
```
#### Change in gRPC gateway HTTP endpoints (replaced `/v3alpha` with `/v3beta`)
Before
```bash
curl -L http://localhost:2379/v3alpha/kv/put \
-X POST -d '{"key": "Zm9v", "value": "YmFy"}'
```
After
```bash
curl -L http://localhost:2379/v3beta/kv/put \
-X POST -d '{"key": "Zm9v", "value": "YmFy"}'
```
Requests to `/v3alpha` endpoints will redirect to `/v3beta`, and `/v3alpha` will be removed in 3.4 release.
#### Change in maximum request size limits
3.3 now allows custom request size limits for both server and **client side**.
Server-side request limits can be configured with `--max-request-bytes` flag:
```bash
# limits request size to 1.5 KiB
etcd --max-request-bytes 1536
# client writes exceeding 1.5 KiB will be rejected
etcdctl put foo [LARGE VALUE...]
# etcdserver: request is too large
```
Or configure `embed.Config.MaxRequestBytes` field:
// client reads exceeding "MaxCallRecvMsgSize" will be rejected from client-side
_,err=cli.Get(ctx,"foo",clientv3.WithPrefix())
err.Error()=="rpc error: code = ResourceExhausted desc = grpc: received message larger than max (5240509 vs. 3145728)"
```
**If not specified, client-side send limit defaults to 2 MiB (1.5 MiB + gRPC overhead bytes) and receive limit to `math.MaxInt32`**. Please see [clientv3 godoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/coreos/etcd/clientv3#Config) for more detail.
#### Change in raw gRPC client wrappers
3.3 changes the function signatures of `clientv3` gRPC client wrapper. This change was needed to support [custom `grpc.CallOption` on message size limits](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/9047).
Before and after
```diff
-func NewKVFromKVClient(remote pb.KVClient) KV {
+func NewKVFromKVClient(remote pb.KVClient, c *Client) KV {
+func NewWatchFromWatchClient(wc pb.WatchClient, c *Client) Watcher {
```
#### Change in clientv3 `Snapshot` API error type
Previously, clientv3 `Snapshot` API returned raw [`grpc/*status.statusError`] type error. v3.3 now translates those errors to corresponding public error types, to be consistent with other APIs.
Before
```go
import"context"
// reading snapshot with canceled context should error out
#### Change in `etcdctl lease timetolive` command output
Previously, `lease timetolive LEASE_ID` command on expired lease prints `-1s` for remaining seconds. 3.3 now outputs clearer messages.
Before
```bash
lease 2d8257079fa1bc0c granted with TTL(0s), remaining(-1s)
```
After
```bash
lease 2d8257079fa1bc0c already expired
```
#### Change in `golang.org/x/net/context` imports
`clientv3` has deprecated `golang.org/x/net/context`. If a project vendors `golang.org/x/net/context` in other code (e.g. etcd generated protocol buffer code) and imports `github.com/coreos/etcd/clientv3`, it requires Go 1.9+ to compile.
Before
```go
import"golang.org/x/net/context"
cli.Put(context.Background(),"f","v")
```
After
```go
import"context"
cli.Put(context.Background(),"f","v")
```
#### Change in gRPC dependency
3.3 now requires [grpc/grpc-go](https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/releases) `v1.7.5`.
##### Deprecate `grpclog.Logger`
`grpclog.Logger` has been deprecated in favor of [`grpclog.LoggerV2`](https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/blob/master/grpclog/loggerv2.go). `clientv3.Logger` is now `grpclog.LoggerV2`.
// log.New above cannot be used (not implement grpclog.LoggerV2 interface)
```
##### Deprecate `grpc.ErrClientConnTimeout`
Previously, `grpc.ErrClientConnTimeout` error is returned on client dial time-outs. 3.3 instead returns `context.DeadlineExceeded` (see [#8504](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/issues/8504)).
Before
```go
// expect dial time-out on ipv4 blackhole
_,err:=clientv3.New(clientv3.Config{
Endpoints:[]string{"http://254.0.0.1:12345"},
DialTimeout:2*time.Second
})
iferr==grpc.ErrClientConnTimeout{
// handle errors
}
```
After
```go
_,err:=clientv3.New(clientv3.Config{
Endpoints:[]string{"http://254.0.0.1:12345"},
DialTimeout:2*time.Second
})
iferr==context.DeadlineExceeded{
// handle errors
}
```
#### Change in official container registry
etcd now uses [`gcr.io/etcd-development/etcd`](https://gcr.io/etcd-development/etcd) as a primary container registry, and [`quay.io/coreos/etcd`](https://quay.io/coreos/etcd) as secondary.
Before
```bash
docker pull quay.io/coreos/etcd:v3.2.5
```
After
```bash
docker pull gcr.io/etcd-development/etcd:v3.3.0
```
### Server upgrade checklists
#### Upgrade requirements
To upgrade an existing etcd deployment to 3.3, the running cluster must be 3.2 or greater. If it's before 3.2, please [upgrade to 3.2](upgrade_3_2.md) before upgrading to 3.3.
Also, to ensure a smooth rolling upgrade, the running cluster must be healthy. Check the health of the cluster by using the `etcdctl endpoint health` command before proceeding.
#### Preparation
Before upgrading etcd, always test the services relying on etcd in a staging environment before deploying the upgrade to the production environment.
Before beginning, [backup the etcd data](../op-guide/maintenance.md#snapshot-backup). Should something go wrong with the upgrade, it is possible to use this backup to [downgrade](#downgrade) back to existing etcd version. Please note that the `snapshot` command only backs up the v3 data. For v2 data, see [backing up v2 datastore](../v2/admin_guide.md#backing-up-the-datastore).
#### Mixed versions
While upgrading, an etcd cluster supports mixed versions of etcd members, and operates with the protocol of the lowest common version. The cluster is only considered upgraded once all of its members are upgraded to version 3.3. Internally, etcd members negotiate with each other to determine the overall cluster version, which controls the reported version and the supported features.
#### Limitations
Note: If the cluster only has v3 data and no v2 data, it is not subject to this limitation.
If the cluster is serving a v2 data set larger than 50MB, each newly upgraded member may take up to two minutes to catch up with the existing cluster. Check the size of a recent snapshot to estimate the total data size. In other words, it is safest to wait for 2 minutes between upgrading each member.
For a much larger total data size, 100MB or more , this one-time process might take even more time. Administrators of very large etcd clusters of this magnitude can feel free to contact the [etcd team][etcd-contact] before upgrading, and we'll be happy to provide advice on the procedure.
#### Downgrade
If all members have been upgraded to v3.3, the cluster will be upgraded to v3.3, and downgrade from this completed state is **not possible**. If any single member is still v3.2, however, the cluster and its operations remains "v3.2", and it is possible from this mixed cluster state to return to using a v3.2 etcd binary on all members.
Please [backup the data directory](../op-guide/maintenance.md#snapshot-backup) of all etcd members to make downgrading the cluster possible even after it has been completely upgraded.
### Upgrade procedure
This example shows how to upgrade a 3-member v3.2 ectd cluster running on a local machine.
#### 1. Check upgrade requirements
Is the cluster healthy and running v3.2.x?
```
$ ETCDCTL_API=3 etcdctl endpoint health --endpoints=localhost:2379,localhost:22379,localhost:32379
localhost:2379 is healthy: successfully committed proposal: took = 6.600684ms
localhost:22379 is healthy: successfully committed proposal: took = 8.540064ms
localhost:32379 is healthy: successfully committed proposal: took = 8.763432ms
$ curl http://localhost:2379/version
{"etcdserver":"3.2.7","etcdcluster":"3.2.0"}
```
#### 2. Stop the existing etcd process
When each etcd process is stopped, expected errors will be logged by other cluster members. This is normal since a cluster member connection has been (temporarily) broken:
```
14:13:31.491746 I | raft: c89feb932daef420 [term 3] received MsgTimeoutNow from 6d4f535bae3ab960 and starts an election to get leadership.

14:13:31.936678 W | rafthttp: lost the TCP streaming connection with peer 6d4f535bae3ab960 (stream Message writer)
```
It's a good idea at this point to [backup the etcd data](../op-guide/maintenance.md#snapshot-backup) to provide a downgrade path should any problems occur:
```
$ etcdctl snapshot save backup.db
```
#### 3. Drop-in etcd v3.3 binary and start the new etcd process
The new v3.3 etcd will publish its information to the cluster:
```
14:14:25.363225 I | etcdserver: published {Name:s1 ClientURLs:[http://localhost:2379]} to cluster a9ededbffcb1b1f1
```
Verify that each member, and then the entire cluster, becomes healthy with the new v3.3 etcd binary:
```
$ ETCDCTL_API=3 /etcdctl endpoint health --endpoints=localhost:2379,localhost:22379,localhost:32379
localhost:22379 is healthy: successfully committed proposal: took = 5.540129ms
localhost:32379 is healthy: successfully committed proposal: took = 7.321771ms
localhost:2379 is healthy: successfully committed proposal: took = 10.629901ms
```
Upgraded members will log warnings like the following until the entire cluster is upgraded. This is expected and will cease after all etcd cluster members are upgraded to v3.3:
```
14:15:17.071804 W | etcdserver: member c89feb932daef420 has a higher version 3.3.0
14:15:21.073110 W | etcdserver: the local etcd version 3.2.7 is not up-to-date
14:15:21.073142 W | etcdserver: member 6d4f535bae3ab960 has a higher version 3.3.0
14:15:21.073157 W | etcdserver: the local etcd version 3.2.7 is not up-to-date
14:15:21.073164 W | etcdserver: member c89feb932daef420 has a higher version 3.3.0
```
#### 4. Repeat step 2 to step 3 for all other members
#### 5. Finish
When all members are upgraded, the cluster will report upgrading to 3.3 successfully:
```
14:15:54.536901 N | etcdserver/membership: updated the cluster version from 3.2 to 3.3
14:15:54.537035 I | etcdserver/api: enabled capabilities for version 3.3
```
```
$ ETCDCTL_API=3 /etcdctl endpoint health --endpoints=localhost:2379,localhost:22379,localhost:32379

# Snapshot Migration
You can migrate a snapshot of your data from a v0.4.9+ cluster into a new etcd 2.2 cluster using a snapshot migration. After snapshot migration, the etcd indexes of your data will change. Many etcd applications rely on these indexes to behave correctly. This operation should only be done while all etcd applications are stopped.

etcd is a distributed key-value store designed to reliably and quickly preserve and provide access to critical data. It enables reliable distributed coordination through distributed locking, leader elections, and write barriers. An etcd cluster is intended for high availability and permanent data storage and retrieval.
**Note**: The `master` branch may be in an *unstable or even broken state* during development. Please use [releases][github-release] instead of the `master` branch in order to get stable binaries.
This is the etcd v2 documentation set. For more recent versions, please see the [etcd v3 guides][etcd-v3].
etcd is a distributed, consistent key-value store for shared configuration and service discovery, with a focus on being:
Reading and writing into the etcd keyspace is done via a simple, RESTful HTTP API, or using language-specific libraries that wrap the HTTP API with higher level primitives.
* *Fast*: benchmarked 1000s of writes/s per instance
* *Reliable*: properly distributed using Raft
### Reading and Writing
etcd is written in Go and uses the [Raft][raft] consensus algorithm to manage a highly-available replicated log.

- [Libraries, Tools, and Language Bindings][libraries]
- [Admin API Documentation][admin-api]
- [Members API][members-api]
etcd is used [in production by many companies](./production-users.md), and the development team stands behind it in critical deployment scenarios, where etcd is frequently teamed with applications such as [Kubernetes][k8s], [fleet][fleet], [locksmith][locksmith], [vulcand][vulcand], and many others.
### Security, Auth, Access control
See [etcdctl][etcdctl] for a simple command line client.
Or feel free to just use `curl`, as in the examples below.
Configuration values are distributed within the cluster for your applications to read. Values can be changed programmatically and smart applications can reconfigure automatically. You'll never again have to run a configuration management tool on every machine in order to change a single config value.
### Getting etcd
### General Info
The easiest way to get etcd is to use one of the pre-built release binaries which are available for OSX, Linux, Windows, AppC (ACI), and Docker. Instructions for using these binaries are on the [GitHub releases page][github-release].

For those wanting to try the very latest version, you can build the latest version of etcd from the `master` branch.
You will first need [*Go*](https://golang.org/) installed on your machine (version 1.5+ is required).
All development occurs on `master`, including new features and bug fixes.
Bug fixes are first targeted at `master` and subsequently ported to release branches, as described in the [branch management][branch-management] guide.
You have successfully started an etcd and written a key to the store.
### etcd TCP ports
The [official etcd ports][iana-ports] are 2379 for client requests, and 2380 for peer communication. To maintain compatibility, some etcd configuration and documentation continues to refer to the legacy ports 4001 and 7001, but all new etcd use and discussion should adopt the IANA-assigned ports. The legacy ports 4001 and 7001 will be fully deprecated, and support for their use removed, in future etcd releases.
If the previous node is a key and client tries to overwrite it with `dir=true`, it does not give warnings such as `Not a directory`. Instead, the key is set to empty value.

This document tracks people and use cases for etcd in production.

# Proxy
etcd can run as a transparent proxy. Doing so allows for easy discovery of etcd within your infrastructure, since it can run on each machine as a local service. In this mode, etcd acts as a reverse proxy and forwards client requests to an active etcd cluster. The etcd proxy does not participate in the consensus replication of the etcd cluster, thus it neither increases the resilience nor decreases the write performance of the etcd cluster.

# Design of Runtime Reconfiguration
Runtime reconfiguration is one of the hardest and most error prone features in a distributed system, especially in a consensus based system like etcd.
@ -10,13 +15,13 @@ In etcd, every runtime reconfiguration has to go through [two phases][add-member
Phase 1 - Inform cluster of new configuration
To add a member into etcd cluster, you need to make an API call to request a new member to be added to the cluster. And this is only way that you can add a new member into an existing cluster. The API call returns when the cluster agrees on the configuration change.

Phase 2 - Start new member
To join the etcd member into the existing cluster, you need to specify the correct `initial-cluster` and set `initial-cluster-state` to `existing`. When the member starts, it will contact the existing cluster first and verify the current cluster configuration matches the expected one specified in `initial-cluster`. When the new member successfully starts, you know your cluster reached the expected configuration.

By splitting the process into two discrete phases users are forced to be explicit regarding cluster membership changes. This actually gives users more flexibility and makes things easier to reason about. For example, if there is an attempt to add a new member with the same ID as an existing member in an etcd cluster, the action will fail immediately during phase one without impacting the running cluster. Similar protection is provided to prevent adding new members by mistake. If a new etcd member attempts to join the cluster before the cluster has accepted the configuration change,, it will not be accepted by the cluster.

Without the explicit workflow around cluster membership etcd would be vulnerable to unexpected cluster membership changes. For example, if etcd is running under an init system such as systemd, etcd would be restarted after being removed via the membership API, and attempt to rejoin the cluster on startup. This cycle would continue every time a member is removed via the API and systemd is set to restart etcd after failing, which is unexpected.
