xdr customer portal instances

Builds and configures the instances that host the customer portal website. NOTE: the grain ec2_tags:Name and the pillar aws_registry_account are required for portal salt state to complete successfully.

New Portal Server setup steps

• test.version # are we on the correct salt version?
• saltutil.sync_all
  
• saltutil.refresh_modules # refresh grains
• saltutil.refresh_pillar # refresh pillars
• pillar.get aws_registry_account # This one is needed
• slsutil.renderer salt://docker/portal.sls # Does this render properly?
• grains.get environment # make sure "test" is present
• state.sls os_modifications # get some base stuff out of the way
• grains.get ec2_tags:Name # make sure customer-portal is present for highstate to work
• state.highstate # push everything including docker and docker images

Vault Auth Issues

HELP! I destroyed then recreated the AWS IAM Portal Role and now Vault will not let me log in!!

In Vault disable the auth method vault auth disable aws

Then in terraform reapply the config. terragrunt-local apply -target=vault_auth_backend.aws -target=vault_aws_auth_backend_client.aws -target=vault_aws_auth_backend_role.portal

Vault apparently caches the AWS response for the portal IAM role.

So if you destroy and recreate your IAM Role, Vault will reject the login attempt.
