Allow "disable_host_node_id": false to work on Linux as non-root
#4926
Conversation
Bump `shirou/gopsutil` to include shirou/gopsutil#603 This will allow to have consistent node-id even when machine is reinstalled when using `"disable_host_node_id": false` It will fix hashicorp#4914 and allow having the same node-id even when reinstalling a node from scratch. However, it is only compatible with a single OS (installing to Windows will change the node-id, but it seems acceptable).

@pearkes Can someone have a look, it is a fairly trivial change and it has been merged upstream in the library. It has very few consequences as well: only people opting for It will ease re-installing nodes quickly (for instance for frequent re-install) on bare metal installations as the ID will be kept the same way and will not depend of boot time only. Note that the feature was already working for the people running consul as root, but only for those, not it will have a predictable node-id even when not run as root (as long as the OS is linux and running systemd however, otherwise it fallbacks nicely on bootid). See shirou/gopsutil#603 if you need more info. |
