Hi again,
Just trying out a few things on Boundary in Dev mode: I have left my terminal open where Boundary was running on foreground for about a week until I started getting errors:
"error": "rpc error: code = Unavailable desc = last connection error: connection error: desc = \"transport: Error while dialing (nodeenrollment.protocol.Dial) loaded node credentials are nil\"",
"error": "status error grace period has expired, canceling all sessions on worker",
I can imagine that Dev mode wasn’t meant to be used for that long and I accept the fact that I may have to restart things for them to work again.
What I’m trying to find out is whether I can reuse the configuration data that’s stored on Postgres without having to erase the database and start from scratch.
A bit of context here: I’m using a self-managed Postgres instance on my laptop and not the default docker container that Dev mode spins up automatically. I actually prefer to have full control of the database and the service directly from my OS.
The reason I ask is I saw there is an option -disable-database-destruction
for the boundary dev
command which prevents the removal of the database docker container when the dev server is shut down. If that’s possible I would assume it’s possible to reuse that database the next time you start the dev server, though I get this error when I try:
Error connecting to database: error creating global scope kms keys:
kms.(Kms).CreateKeysTx: duplicate key value violates unique constraint
"kms_root_key_scope_id_key1": unique constraint violation:
integrity violation: error #1002
I thought maybe by providing an AES key for recovery operations (-recovery-key
) I could bypass that? Has anyone succeeded in doing that before?
Thanks.
