TripleO - Deployment configurations

This post is a summary of the deployments I usually test for deploying TripleO using quickstart.

The following steps need to run in the Hypervisor node in order to deploy both the Undercloud and the Overcloud.

You need to execute them one after the other, the idea of this recipe is to have something just for copying/pasting.

Once the last step ends you can/should be able to connect to the Undercloud VM to start operating your Overcloud deployment.

The usual steps are:

01 - Prepare the hypervisor node.

Now, let’s install some dependencies. Same Hypervisor node, same root user.

# In this dev. env. /var is only 50GB, so I will create
# a sym link to another location with more capacity.
# It will take easily more tan 50GB deploying a 3+1 overcloud
sudo mkdir -p /home/libvirt/
sudo ln -sf /home/libvirt/ /var/lib/libvirt

# Disable IPv6 lookups
# sudo bash -c "cat >> /etc/sysctl.conf" << EOL
# net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
# net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1
# EOL
# sudo sysctl -p

# Enable IPv6 in kernel cmdline
# sed -i s/ipv6.disable=1/ipv6.disable=0/ /etc/default/grub
# grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
# reboot

sudo yum groupinstall "Virtualization Host" -y
sudo yum install git lvm2 lvm2-devel -y
sudo yum install libvirt-python python-lxml libvirt -y

02 - Create the toor user (from the Hypervisor node, as root).

sudo useradd toor
echo "toor:toor" | sudo chpasswd
echo "toor ALL=(root) NOPASSWD:ALL" \
  | sudo tee /etc/sudoers.d/toor
sudo chmod 0440 /etc/sudoers.d/toor
sudo su - toor

cd
mkdir .ssh
ssh-keygen -t rsa -N "" -f .ssh/id_rsa
cat .ssh/id_rsa.pub >> .ssh/authorized_keys
cat .ssh/id_rsa.pub | sudo tee -a /root/.ssh/authorized_keys
echo '127.0.0.1 127.0.0.2' | sudo tee -a /etc/hosts

export VIRTHOST=127.0.0.2
ssh root@$VIRTHOST uname -a

Now, follow as the toor user and prepare the Hypervisor node for the deployment.

03 - Clone repos and install deps.

git clone \
  https://github.com/openstack/tripleo-quickstart
chmod u+x ./tripleo-quickstart/quickstart.sh
bash ./tripleo-quickstart/quickstart.sh \
  --install-deps
sudo setenforce 0

Export some variables used in the deployment command.

04 - Export common variables.

export CONFIG=~/deploy-config.yaml
export VIRTHOST=127.0.0.2

Now we will create the configuration file used for the deployment, depending on the file you choose you will deploy different environments.

05 - Click on the environment description to expand the recipe.

From the Hypervisor, as the toor user run the deployment command to deploy both your Undercloud and Overcloud.

06 - Deploy TripleO.

bash ./tripleo-quickstart/quickstart.sh \
      --clean          \
      --release master \
      --teardown all   \
      --tags all       \
      -e @$CONFIG      \

Updated 2019/02/05: Initial version.

Updated 2019/02/05: TODO: Test the OpenShift deployment.

Updated 2019/02/06: Added some clarifications about where the commands should run.
