devtest_seedΒΆ

  1. Create and start your seed VM. This script invokes diskimage-builder with suitable paths and options to create and start a VM that contains an all-in-one OpenStack cloud with the baremetal driver enabled, and preconfigures it for a development environment. Note that the seed has minimal variation in it’s configuration: the goal is to bootstrap with a known-solid config.

    cd $TRIPLEO_ROOT/tripleo-image-elements/elements/seed-stack-config
    
  2. Ironic and Nova-Baremetal require different metadata to operate.

    if [ $USE_IRONIC -eq 0 ]; then
    # Unsets .ironic as it's unused.
    # TODO replace "ironic": {} with del(.ironic) when jq 1.3 is widely available.
    # Sets:
    # - bm node arch
    # - bm power manager
    # - ssh power host
    # - ssh power key
    # - ssh power user
        jq -s '
            .[1] as $config
            | .[0]
            | .nova.baremetal as $bm

                            "ssh_key": $config["ssh-key"]
                        })
                    })
                })
            }' config.json $TE_DATAFILE > tmp_local.json
    else
    # Unsets .nova.baremetal as it's unused.
    # TODO replace "baremetal": {} with del(.baremetal) when jq 1.3 is widely available.
    # Sets:

    NODE_ARCH=$(os-apply-config -m $TE_DATAFILE --key arch --type raw)
    
  3. If you are only building disk images, there is no reason to boot the seed VM. Instead, pass --build-only to tell boot-seed-vm not to boot the vm it builds.

    If you want to use a previously built image rather than building a new one, passing -c will boot the existing image rather than creating a new one.

    cd $TRIPLEO_ROOT
    boot-seed-vm -a $NODE_ARCH $NODE_DIST neutron-dhcp-agent
    
  4. If you’re just building images, you’re done with this script. Move on to devtest_undercloud

    boot-seed-vm will start a VM containing your SSH key for the root user.

    The IP address of the VM’s eth0 is printed out at the end of boot-seed-vm, or you can query the testenv json which is updated by boot-seed-vm:

    SEED_IP=$(os-apply-config -m $TE_DATAFILE --key seed-ip --type netaddress)
    
  5. Add a route to the baremetal bridge via the seed node (we do this so that your host is isolated from the networking of the test environment. We only add this route if the baremetal seed IP is used as the gateway (the route is typically not required if you are using a pre-existing baremetal network)

    # These are not persistent, if you reboot, re-run them.
    
    BM_NETWORK_SEED_IP=$(os-apply-config -m $TE_DATAFILE --key baremetal-network.seed.ip --type raw --key-default '192.0.2.1')
    BM_NETWORK_GATEWAY=$(os-apply-config -m $TE_DATAFILE --key baremetal-network.gateway-ip --type raw --key-default '192.0.2.1')
    if [ $BM_NETWORK_GATEWAY == $BM_NETWORK_SEED_IP ]; then
        ROUTE_DEV=$(os-apply-config -m $TE_DATAFILE --key seed-route-dev --type netdevice --key-default virbr0)
        sudo ip route replace $BM_NETWORK_CIDR dev $ROUTE_DEV via $SEED_IP
    fi
    
  6. Mask the seed API endpoint out of your proxy settings

    export no_proxy=$no_proxy,$BM_NETWORK_SEED_IP
    
  7. If you downloaded a pre-built seed image you will need to log into it and customise the configuration within it. See footnote [1].)

  8. Setup a prompt clue so you can tell what cloud you have configured. (Do this once).

    source $TRIPLEO_ROOT/tripleo-incubator/cloudprompt
    
  9. Source the client configuration for the seed cloud.

    source $TRIPLEO_ROOT/tripleo-incubator/seedrc
    
  10. If Ironic is in use, we need to setup a user for it.

    if [ $USE_IRONIC -eq 0 ]; then
      IRONIC_OPT=
    else
      IRONIC_OPT="--ironic-password unset"
    fi
    
  11. Perform setup of your seed cloud.

    # Listen on SEED_COMP_PORT for a callback from os-collect-config. This is
    # similar to how Heat waits, but Heat does not run on the seed.
    timeout 480 sh -c 'printf "HTTP/1.0 200 OK\r\n\r\n\r\n" | nc -l '"$COMP_IP"' '"$SEED_COMP_PORT"' | grep '"$SEED_IMAGE_ID"
    
    # Wait for network
    wait_for 10 1 ping -c 1 $BM_NETWORK_SEED_IP
    
    # If ssh-keyscan fails to connect, it returns 0. So grep to see if it succeeded
    ssh-keyscan -t rsa $BM_NETWORK_SEED_IP | tee -a ~/.ssh/known_hosts | grep -q "^$BM_NETWORK_SEED_IP ssh-rsa "
    
    init-keystone -o $BM_NETWORK_SEED_IP -t unset -e admin@example.com -p unset -u root
    setup-endpoints $BM_NETWORK_SEED_IP --glance-password unset --heat-password unset --neutron-password unset --nova-password unset $IRONIC_OPT
    keystone role-create --name heat_stack_user
    # Creating these roles to be used by tenants using swift
    keystone role-create --name=swiftoperator
    keystone role-create --name=ResellerAdmin
    
    echo "Waiting for nova to initialise..."
    wait_for 50 10 nova list
    user-config
    
    echo "Waiting for Nova Compute to be available"
    wait_for 30 10 nova service-list --binary nova-compute 2\>/dev/null \| grep 'enabled.*\ up\ '
    echo "Waiting for neutron API and L2 agent to be available"
    
    BM_NETWORK_SEED_RANGE_START=$(os-apply-config -m $TE_DATAFILE --key baremetal-network.seed.range-start --type raw --key-default '192.0.2.2')
    BM_NETWORK_SEED_RANGE_END=$(os-apply-config -m $TE_DATAFILE --key baremetal-network.seed.range-end --type raw --key-default '192.0.2.20')
    SEED_NAMESERVER=$(os-apply-config -m $TE_DATAFILE --key seed.nameserver --type netaddress --key-default '')
    NETWORK_JSON=$(mktemp)
    jq "." <<EOF > $NETWORK_JSON
    {
        "physical": {
            "gateway": "$BM_NETWORK_GATEWAY",
            "metadata_server": "$BM_NETWORK_SEED_IP",
            "cidr": "$BM_NETWORK_CIDR",
            "allocation_start": "$BM_NETWORK_SEED_RANGE_START",
            "allocation_end": "$BM_NETWORK_SEED_RANGE_END",
            "name": "ctlplane",
            "nameserver": "$SEED_NAMESERVER"
        }
    }
    EOF
    setup-neutron -n $NETWORK_JSON
    rm $NETWORK_JSON
    
  12. Nova quota runs up with the defaults quota so overide the default to allow unlimited cores, instances and ram.

    nova quota-update --cores -1 --instances -1 --ram -1 $(keystone tenant-get admin | awk '$2=="id" {print $4}')
    
  13. Register “bare metal” nodes with nova and setup Nova baremetal flavors. When using VMs Nova will PXE boot them as though they use physical hardware. If you want to create the VM yourself see footnote [2] for details on its requirements. If you want to use real baremetal see footnote [3] for details. If you are building an undercloud, register only the first node.

    setup-baremetal --service-host seed --nodes <(jq '[.nodes[0]]' $TE_DATAFILE)
    

    Otherwise, if you are skipping the undercloud, you should register all the nodes.:

    setup-baremetal --service-host seed --nodes <(jq '.nodes' $TE_DATAFILE)
    

    If you need to collect the MAC address separately, see scripts/get-vm-mac.

Footnotes

[1]

Customize a downloaded seed image.

If you downloaded your seed VM image, you may need to configure it. Setup a network proxy, if you have one (e.g. 192.168.2.1 port 8080)

# Run within the image!
echo << EOF >> ~/.profile
export no_proxy=192.0.2.1
export http_proxy=http://192.168.2.1:8080/
EOF

Add an ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file. The image rejects password authentication for security, so you will need to ssh out from the VM console. Even if you don’t copy your authorized_keys in, you will still need to ensure that /home/stack/.ssh/authorized_keys on your seed node has some kind of public SSH key in it, or the openstack configuration scripts will error.

You can log into the console using the username ‘stack’ password ‘stack’.

[2]

Requirements for the “baremetal node” VMs

If you don’t use create-nodes, but want to create your own VMs, here are some suggestions for what they should look like.

  • each VM should have 1 NIC
  • eth0 should be on brbm
  • record the MAC addresses for the NIC of each VM.
  • give each VM no less than 2GB of disk, and ideally give them more than NODE_DISK, which defaults to 20GB
  • 1GB RAM is probably enough (512MB is not enough to run an all-in-one OpenStack), and 768M isn’t enough to do repeated deploys with.
  • if using KVM, specify that you will install the virtual machine via PXE. This will avoid KVM prompting for a disk image or installation media.
[3]

Notes when using real bare metal

If you want to use real bare metal see the following.

  • When calling setup-baremetal you can set the MAC, IP address, user, and password parameters which should all be space delemited lists that correspond to the MAC addresses and power management commands your real baremetal machines require. See scripts/setup-baremetal for details.

  • If you see over-mtu packets getting dropped when iscsi data is copied over the control plane you may need to increase the MTU on your brbm interfaces. Symptoms that this might be the cause include:

    iscsid: log shows repeated connection failed errors (and reconnects)
    dmesg shows:
        openvswitch: vnet1: dropped over-mtu packet: 1502 > 1500
