opencas-ansible

Collection of Ansible playbooks for setting up Open CAS accelerated devices.

Configuration and usage

Default playbook configuration tries to configure Open CAS on opencas_nodes host group from inventory.

Configuring devices

Example configuration is shown in group_vars/opencas_nodes.yml.sample. For default, out-of-the-box configuration you can only change the name to opencas_nodes.yml, configure appropriate host groups and adjust the device names.

Configuring IO-classes

Default configuration is already present at roles/opencas-deploy/files/default.csv. Any additional ioclass config files present in this directory will be copied over to configured hosts and may be used in cache devices configuration in group variables.

Playbooks

opencas-deploy

Installs Open CAS software on opencas-node group and configures caching devices and cached volumes defined.

opencas-teardown

Stops all cache instances and removes Open CAS software. Make sure that /dev/casx-y devices aren't used at time of teardown.

Roles

opencas-validate

Validates the Open CAS configuration set (e.g. in group_vars).

opencas-defaults

Gathers custom facts needed for further processing, also in defaults/main.yml there are some settings used by other roles e.g. version of Open CAS to be installed.

opencas-install

Installs Open CAS software.

opencas-deploy

Copies over the IO-class configuration files, validates configuration and deploys it on hosts.
