Deployment of containerised OpenStack to bare metal using kolla and bifrost
a0f49cbd5c
This is part of an effort to use environment variables for configuration of paths on the local ansible control host, and ansible variables for configuration of paths on remote hosts (seed, seed-hypervisor, overcloud). The base_path variable is used to set sensible defaults for image_cache_path, source_checkout_path and virtualenv_path. |

Kayobe
Deployment of Scientific OpenStack using OpenStack kolla.
Kayobe is an open source tool for automating deployment of Scientific OpenStack onto a set of bare metal servers. Kayobe is composed of Ansible playbooks, a python module, and makes heavy use of the OpenStack kolla project. Kayobe aims to complement the kolla-ansible project, providing an opinionated yet highly configurable OpenStack deployment and automation of many operational procedures.

Features
- Heavily automated using Ansible
- kayobe Command Line Interface (CLI) for cloud operators
- Deployment of a seed VM used to manage the OpenStack control plane
- Configuration of physical network infrastructure
- Discovery, introspection and provisioning of control plane hardware using OpenStack bifrost
- Deployment of an OpenStack control plane using OpenStack kolla-ansible
- Discovery, introspection and provisioning of bare metal compute hosts using OpenStack ironic and ironic inspector
- Containerised workloads on bare metal using OpenStack magnum
- Big data on bare metal using OpenStack sahara
In the near future we aim to add support for the following:
