Deploying with SR-IOV Support
|
||||
===============================
|
||||
|
||||
TripleO can deploy Overcloud nodes with SR-IOV support. A new role ``ComputeSriov``
|
||||
has been added to create a custom ``roles_data.yaml`` with composable SR-IOV role.
|
||||
|
||||
Execute below command to create the ``roles_data.yaml``::
|
||||
|
||||
openstack overcloud roles generate -o roles_data.yaml Controller ComputeSriov
|
||||
|
||||
Once a roles file is created, the following changes are required:
|
||||
|
||||
- Deploy Command
|
||||
- Parameters
|
||||
- Network Config
|
||||
|
||||
Deploy Command
|
||||
----------------
|
||||
Deploy command should include the generated roles data file from the above
|
||||
command.
|
||||
|
||||
Deploy command should also include the SR-IOV environment file to include the
|
||||
neutron-sriov-agent service. All the required parameters are also specified in
|
||||
this environment file. The parameters has to be configured according to the
|
||||
baremetal on which SR-IOV needs to be enabled.
|
||||
|
||||
Also, SR-IOV requires mandatory kernel parameters to be set, like
|
||||
``intel_iommu=on iommu=pt`` on Intel machines. In order to enable the
|
||||
configuration of kernel parametres to the host, host-config-pre-network
|
||||
environment file has to be added for the deploy command.
|
||||
|
||||
Adding the following arguments to the ``openstack overcloud deploy`` command
|
||||
will do the trick::
|
||||
|
||||
openstack overcloud deploy --templates \
|
||||
-r roles_data.yaml \
|
||||
-e /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/environments/services/neutron-sriov.yaml \
|
||||
-e /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/environments/host-config-and-reboot.yaml \
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters
|
||||
----------
|
||||
Following are the list of parameters which need to be provided for deploying
|
||||
with SR-IOV support.
|
||||
|
||||
* NovaPCIPassthrough: Provide the list of SR-IOV device names, the logical network,
|
||||
PCI addresses etc. The PF/VF devices matching the criteria would be available for
|
||||
guests.
|
||||
* NeutronPhysicalDevMappings: The map of logical network name and the physical interface.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Example::
|
||||
|
||||
parameter_defaults:
|
||||
NovaPCIPassthrough:
|
||||
- devname: "p7p1"
|
||||
physical_network: "sriov1_net"
|
||||
- devname: "p7p2"
|
||||
physical_network: "sriov2_net"
|
||||
NeutronPhysicalDevMappings: "sriov1_net:p7p1,sriov2_net:p7p2"
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The parameter ``KernelArgs`` should be provided in the deployment environment
|
||||
file, with the set of kernel boot parameters to be applied on the
|
||||
``ComputeSriov`` role where SR-IOV is enabled::
|
||||
|
||||
parameter_defaults:
|
||||
ComputeSriovParameters:
|
||||
KernelArgs: "intel_iommu=on iommu=pt"
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Network Config
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
SR-IOV supported network interfaces should be specified in the network config
|
||||
templates as sriov_pf type. This mechanism of configuring numvfs for SR-IOV
|
||||
device is recommended and NeutronSriovNumVFs shall be avoided.
|
||||
|
||||
Example::
|
||||
|
||||
network_config:
|
||||
- type: sriov_pf
|
||||
name: p7p2
|
||||
mtu: 9000
|
||||
numvfs: 10
|
||||
use_dhcp: false
|
||||
defroute: false
|
||||
nm_controlled: true
|
||||
promisc: false
