Diagnostics command¶

Initial work is on #17609

"arvados-client diagnostics"

Current level of functionality:

• reveal common problems that can be hard to notice/recognize, especially for someone who is new to installing arvados (e.g., invalid TLS certificate for websocket, which breaks workbench but presents no error message)
• produce output that can be shared with others to help with troubleshooting

Desired/requested features:

• download data using s3 protocol
• run config-check (if cluster config file is accessible)
• check all health endpoints (if cluster config file is accessible)
• make internal/external client recognition mandatory (or at least default to expecting one)
• enable debug/trace mode for a single test number
• more verbose errors/explanations
• for each service, report version currently running
• for each service, report version currently installed ("/proc/self/exe -version"?)
• for each service, report md5/timestamp of config file that is currently being used (not necessarily same as one currently on disk)
• for each service, report md5/timestamp of config file on disk
• check Ruby command-line tools (arv) are installed and working
• check Python command-line tools (like arv-put) are installed and working
• check Docker is installed on current host, and is usable by arv-keepdocker
• check arvados-cwl-runner is installed and working (run a workflow)
• set up a user account with "arv user setup"
• test that webshell actually works (currently just tries connecting, but this probably doesn't reveal pam config problems)

Undesired features that really belong elsewhere:

• check for problems in config file (this should be done in config-check instead)
