Why I did it
In upgrade scenarios, where config_db.json is not carry forwarded to new image, it could be left w/o TACACS credentials.
Added a service to trigger 5 minutes after boot and restore TACACS, if /etc/sonic/old_config/tacacs.json is present.
How I did it
By adding a service, that would fire 5 mins after boot.
This service apply tacacs if available.
How to verify it
Upgrade and watch status of tacacs.timer & tacacs.service
You may create /etc/sonic/old_config/tacacs.json, with updated credentials
(before 5mins after boot) and see that appears in config & persisted too.

Encounter error during "config-setup boot" if the updategraph is enabled.
How I did it
Correct the code inside the config-setup script.
Remove the space between the assignment operator.
How to verify it
Remove the /etc/sonic/config_db.json and reboot the device.
Originally, it will return following error after boot up.
rv: command not found
After modification, it can correctly parse the status of updategraph without error.
In scenario where upgrade gets config from minigraph, it could miss tacacs credentials as they are not in minigraph. Hence restore explicitly upon load-minigraph, if present.
- Why I did it
Upon boot, when config migration is required, the switch could load config from minigraph. The config-load from minigraph would wipe off TACACS key and disable login via TACACS, which would disable all remote user access. This change, would re-configure the TACACS if there is a saved copy available.
- How I did it
When config is loaded from minigraph, look for a TACACS credentials back up (tacacs.json) under /etc/sonic/old_config. If present, load the credentials into running config, before config-save is called.
- How to verify it
Remove /etc/sonic/config_db.json and do an image update. Upon reboot, w/o this change, you would not be able ssh in as remote user. You may login as admin and check out, "show tacacs" & "show aaa" to verify that tacacs-key is missing and login is not enabled for tacacs.
With this change applied, remove /etc/sonic/config_db.json, but save tacacs & aaa credentials as tacacs.json in /etc/sonic/. Upon reboot, you should see remote user access possible.
We are moving toward building all Python packages for SONiC as wheel packages rather than Debian packages. This will also allow us to more easily transition to Python 3.
Python files are now packaged in "sonic-utilities" Pyhton wheel. Data files are now packaged in "sonic-utilities-data" Debian package.
**- How I did it**
- Build and install sonic-utilities as a Python package
- Remove explicit installation of wheel dependencies, as these will now get installed implicitly by pip when installing sonic-utilities as a wheel
- Build and install new sonic-utilities-data package to install data files required by sonic-utilities applications
- Update all references to sonic-utilities scripts/entrypoints to either reference the new /usr/local/bin/ location or remove absolute path entirely where applicable

* [platform] Add Support For Environment Variable
This PR adds the ability to read environment file from /etc/sonic.
the file contains immutable SONiC config attributes such as platform,
hwsku, version, device_type. The aim is to minimize calls being made
into sonic-cfggen during boot time.

* Changes to support config-setup service for multi-npu
platforms. For Multi-npu we are not supporting as of
now config initializtion and ZTP. It will support creating
config db from minigraph or using config db from previous
file system

* Address Review Comments.
* Address Review comments
* Address Review Comments of using pyhton based config load_minigraph/
config save/config reload from shell scripts so that we don't duplicate
code. Also while running from shell we will skip stop/start services
done by those commands.
* Updated to use python command so no code duplication.
and then we load image and reboot even if there was existing
config_db.json we will look for DHCP Service. we should disbale
update_graph in such cases. This behaviour is silimar to what we have in
201811 image.
* [MultiDB] (except ./src and ./dockers dirs): replace redis-cli with sonic-db-cli and use new DBConnector
* update comment for a potential bug
* update comment
* add TODO maker as review reqirement
* Create a SONiC configuration management service
* Perform config db migration after loading config_db.json to redis DB
* Migrate config-setup post migration hooks on image upgrade
config-setup post migration hooks help user to migrate configurations from
old image to new image. If the installed hooks are user defined they will not
be part of the newly installed image. So these hooks have to be migrated to
new image and only then they can be executing when the new image is booting.
The changes in this fix migrate config-setup post-migration hooks and ensure
that any hooks with the same filename in newly installed image are not
overwritten.
It is expected that users install new hooks as per their requirement and
not edit existing hooks. Any changes to existing hooks need to be done as
part of new image and not post bootup.
