This partially reverts commit 47bbb96b29ab30764d6220cdd43e63a1d2072533 which triggered a retry on vexxhost clouds. The issue was introduced in Ie8fd965165e8d347d27528a2c16d0647e412ccdc, which applied some fixes for CentOS 8.3, and inadvertently removed the Tenks variable that forces the use of qemu for 'bare metal' VMs. This lead to autodetection of KVM, which does not work well when nested in all CI cloud providers. This change fixes the issue by forcing the use of qemu for the overcloud once more. It also adds a similar option for the seed VM job. Change-Id: I6bc8da2b8da903e09b97df8cd95c68a562c11db9
Kayobe
Kayobe enables deployment of containerised OpenStack to bare metal.
Containers offer a compelling solution for isolating OpenStack services, but running the control plane on an orchestrator such as Kubernetes or Docker Swarm adds significant complexity and operational overheads.
The hosts in an OpenStack control plane must somehow be provisioned, but deploying a secondary OpenStack cloud to do this seems like overkill.
Kayobe stands on the shoulders of giants:
- OpenStack bifrost discovers and provisions the cloud
- OpenStack kolla builds container images for OpenStack services
- OpenStack kolla-ansible delivers painless deployment and upgrade of containerised OpenStack services
To this solid base, kayobe adds:
- Configuration of cloud host OS & flexible networking
- Management of physical network devices
- A friendly openstack-like CLI
All this and more, automated from top to bottom using Ansible.
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

- 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
- Virtualised compute using OpenStack nova
- Containerised workloads on bare metal using OpenStack magnum
- Big data on bare metal using OpenStack sahara
- Control plane and workload monitoring and log aggregation using OpenStack monasca
