Mini Provisioning Steps

Find description, example and usage of config used across mini provisioner stages here

Provisioning

1. Post Install

   1. Edit this template and store the file with filled in value at /tmp/utils.post_install.tmpl.1-node

   2. Run Utils post_install

      opt/seagate/cortx/utils/bin/utils_setup post_install --config yaml:///tmp/utils.post_install.tmpl.1-node

   3. Edit this template and store the file with filled in value at /tmp/sspl.post-install.tmpl.1-node

   4. Run SSPL post_install

      /opt/seagate/cortx/sspl/bin/sspl_setup post_install --config yaml:///tmp/sspl.post-install.tmpl.1-node

2. Prepare

   1. Edit this template and store the file with filled in value at /tmp/sspl.prepare.tmpl.1-node

   2. Run SSPL prepare

      /opt/seagate/cortx/sspl/bin/sspl_setup prepare --config yaml:///tmp/sspl.prepare.tmpl.1-node

3. Config

   1. Edit this template and store the file with filled in value at /tmp/utils.config.tmpl.1-node

      Description of keys used in tmpl file

   2. Run Utils config

      /opt/seagate/cortx/utils/bin/utils_setup config --config yaml:///tmp/utils.config.tmpl.1-node

   3. Edit this template and store the file with filled in value at /tmp/sspl.config.tmpl.1-node

   4. Run SSPL config

      /opt/seagate/cortx/sspl/bin/sspl_setup config --config yaml:///tmp/sspl.config.tmpl.1-node

4. Init

   1. Edit this template and store the file with filled in value at /tmp/sspl.init.tmpl.1-node

   2. Run SSPL init

      /opt/seagate/cortx/sspl/bin/sspl_setup init --config yaml:///tmp/sspl.init.tmpl.1-node

Validation and Test

Start

1. Start SSPL service

   systemctl start sspl-ll

2. Check service status

   systemctl status sspl-ll

Note: Starting service using systemctl is recommended only when HA framework is not in place, otherwise service is supposed to be started in Cortx cluster automatically by HA

Test

1. Ensure cortx-sspl-test RPM is installed.

2. Start SSPL tests with plan

   /opt/seagate/cortx/sspl/bin/sspl_setup test --config <config_url> --plan [sanity|alerts|self_primary|self_secondary]

   Ex. To run tests on VM, plan should be sanity

   /opt/seagate/cortx/sspl/bin/sspl_setup test --config <config_url> --plan sanity
