Custom Lab for TripleO

A simple way to bootstrap a bunch of VMs on a libvirt host. Gives more control than quickstart in some cases.

Installation

Please run the following command in order to get "tripleo operator" collection:

ansible-playbook config-host.yaml

Specs

It is expected to run the following resources:

  • 1 undercloud
  • 3 controllers
  • 2 computes
  • 3 ceph-storage

The amount of used memory for that env is about 52G, and about 20 CPU cores.

Prerequisite

Working ssh-agent on ansible-host

A working ssh-agent must be running on the host launching ansible playbook. It is needed in order to hot-load the private ssh key for the undercloud access.

In case you're running the playbook for a "middle machine", you can just forward the agent from your workstation.

Usage

Standard deploy:

ansible-playbook builder.yaml

It will deploy a containerized undercloud and prepare the baremetal.json file you will use in order to register nodes in ironic.

Redeploy the lab

If you issue a lab-destroy on the builder, you will need to redeploy the lab:

ansible-playbook builder.yaml --tags lab

I have my undercloud and want to replay only specific tasks on it

Just limit with the tags, and be sure to have the inventory tag. For example, in order to just manage the overcloud images:

ansible-playbook builder.yaml -t inventory,overcloud-images

I want to add a new instance to my current lab

Just add the requested information in the yaml you used for the initial deploy, then:

ansible-playbook builder.yaml -t domains -t baremetal -t vbmc

Domain tag will create the instance disk image and add it to libvirt. The vbmc tag will add the new to vbmc, and enable it. The baremetal tag will take care of the different configuration on the undercloud.

One note though: you might want to delete the already-existing node(s) from the baremetal.json on the undercloud, in order to avoid useless error output from the import task.

Also, this ansible will NOT run the import task once more, it doesn't ensure all nodes are present. You will need to run, on your own:

source ~/stackrc
openstack overcloud node import --provide baremetal.json

Extend the lab

You can pass variables and environment files using the -e option, like:

ansible-playbook builder.yaml --skip-tags overcloud-images --tags lab -e @environments/3ctl-1compute.yaml

This will start a lab with just 3 controllers and 1 compute.

Variables

vms Hash with the following entries:

  • name (string)
  • cpu (int)
  • memory (int, MB)
  • interfaces (list)
    • network (network name, default 'ctlplane')
  • autostart (bool)
  • swap (string, for example 10G)
  • iotune (list)
    • tune (string, iotune option) value (string, iotune option value)
vms:
  - name: undercloud
    cpu: 16
    memory: 20000
    disksize: 100
    interfaces:
      - network: default
      - net2
    autostart: true
  - name: controller-0
    cpu: 8
    memory: 20000
    disksize: 100
    interfaces:
      - net1
      - net2
    autostart: false

basedir Base directory for all the VM images

undercloud_password Root password on the undercloud VM (debug purpose)

undercloud_config List of hashes representing ini configuration for undercloud.conf file

---
undercloud_config:
  - section: DEFAULT
    option: container_cli

tripleo_repo_version Tripleo-repos package name/version. The default version is master. This can be changed this to any OpenStack version, like stein or train.

overcloud_images Hash with the following entries:
