A simple bash script (deploy.sh) will provision out a Foreman/QuickStack VM Server and 4-5 other baremetal or VM nodes in an OpenStack HA + OpenDaylight environment.
##Pre-Requisites ####Baremetal:
- At least 5 baremetal servers, with 3 interfaces minimum, all connected to separate VLANs
- DHCP should not be running in any VLAN. Foreman will act as a DHCP server.
- On the baremetal server that will be your JumpHost, you need to have the 3 interfaces configured with IP addresses
- On baremetal JumpHost you will need an RPM based linux (CentOS 7 will do) with the kernel up to date (yum update kernel) + at least 2GB of RAM
- Nodes will need to be set to PXE boot first in priority, and off the first NIC, connected to the same VLAN as NIC 1 * of your JumpHost
- Nodes need to have BMC/OOB management via IPMI setup
- Internet access via first (Admin) or third interface (Public)
- No other hypervisors should be running on JumpHost
####VM Nodes:
- JumpHost with 3 interfaces, configured with IP, connected to separate VLANS
- DHCP should not be running in any VLAN. Foreman will act as a DHCP Server
- On baremetal JumpHost you will need an RPM based linux (CentOS 7 will do) with the kernel up to date (yum update kernel) + at least 24GB of RAM
- Internet access via the first (Admin) or third interface (Public)
- No other hypervisors should be running on JumpHost
##How It Works
###deploy.sh:
- Detects your network configuration (3 or 4 usable interfaces)
- Modifies a “ksgen.yml” settings file and Vagrantfile with necessary network info
- Installs Vagrant and dependencies
- Downloads Centos7 Vagrant basebox, and issues a “vagrant up” to start the VM
- The Vagrantfile points to bootstrap.sh as the provisioner to takeover rest of the install
###bootstrap.sh:
- Is initiated inside of the VM once it is up
- Installs Khaleesi, Ansible, and Python dependencies
- Makes a call to Khaleesi to start a playbook: opnfv.yml + “ksgen.yml” settings file
###Khaleesi (Ansible):
- Runs through the playbook to install Foreman/QuickStack inside of the VM
- Configures services needed for a JumpHost: DHCP, TFTP, DNS
- Uses info from “ksgen.yml” file to add your nodes into Foreman and set them to Build mode
####Baremetal Only:
- Issues an API call to Foreman to rebuild all nodes
- Ansible then waits to make sure nodes come back via ssh checks
- Ansible then waits for puppet to run on each node and complete
####VM Only:
- deploy.sh then brings up 5 more Vagrant VMs
- Checks into Foreman and tells Foreman nodes are built
- Configures and starts puppet on each node
##Execution Instructions
- On your JumpHost, clone 'git clone https://github.com/ibravo/bgs_vagrant.git' to as root to /root/
####Baremetal Only:
-
Edit opnvf_ksgen_settings.yml → “nodes” section:
-
For each node, compute, controller1..3:
- mac_address - change to mac_address of that node's Admin NIC (1st NIC)
- bmc_ip - change to IP of BMC (out-of-band) IP
- bmc_mac - same as above, but MAC address
- bmc_user - IPMI username
- bmc_pass - IPMI password
-
For each controller node:
- private_mac - change to mac_address of node's Private NIC (2nd NIC)
-
-
Execute deploy.sh via: ./deploy.sh -base_config /root/bgs_vagrant/opnfv_ksgen_settings.yml
####VM Only:
- Execute deploy.sh via: ./deploy.sh -virtual
- Install directory for each VM will be in /tmp (for example /tmp/compute, /tmp/controller1)
####Both Approaches:
- Install directory for foreman-server is /tmp/bgs_vagrant/ - This is where vagrant will be launched from automatically
- To access the VM you can 'cd /tmp/bgs_vagrant' and type 'vagrant ssh'
- To access Foreman enter the IP address shown in 'cat /tmp/bgs_vagrant/opnfv_ksgen_settings.yml | grep foreman_url'
- The user/pass by default is admin//octopus
##Redeploying Make sure you run ./clean.sh for the baremetal deployment with your opnfv_ksgen_settings.yml file as "-base_config". This will ensure that your nodes are turned off and that your VM is destroyed ("vagrant destroy" in the /tmp/bgs_vagrant directory). For VM redeployment, make sure you "vagrant destroy" in each /tmp/ as well if you want to redeploy. To check and make sure no VMs are still running on your Jumphost you can use "vboxmanage list runningvms".
