Hi @abdosi , @qiluo-msft , please review. |
| http_server_dir=/var/www/tftp | ||

| The service will be added as a new process in docker database-chassis. dockers/docker-database/supervisord.conf.j2 will be modified to support the new service. This service should run only on database-chassis server, which also hosts redis_chassis.server. Other database dockers should not run the http-server. |

not sure why re-use database docker not starting its own docker for this http_server?

Hi @lguohan , this feature was discussed in Chassis community group last year and adding http-server docker was one of the options. But as this is a light weight python http-server, community was more in favor of adding a host side http-server feature. A PR was raised for that but that was an issue enabling the http-server on host side as a feature as it required the service to run a docker.
Later in the community discussion it was decided as its needed in 202205 and only for chassis, to add it as a light weight service in database-chassis which only runs for chassis.
This service is only required for Chassis, binds only to midplane/internal network and uses redis_chassis.server IP to bind to host the server.
@abdosi , please add if I missed anything.
Let me know if we need to have a quick meeting to close on this.
Thanks

| ### Architecture Design | ||
|
|
||
| The new http-server shall use the current Sonic architecture and shall not require any architecture design change. The server shall run only on the supervisor and inside the existing database-chassis docker, which runs only on supervisor. |

Why put this service in database container? I do not see any dependency.

It's in database-chassis container which runs only on Supervisor. Please see above comment for more details. Thanks
