Now that we support a wider variety of virtual environments, it's quite likely that developers and testers will need to create an undercloud.conf for them as well. Since it won't hurt to create undercloud.conf even when using all the defaults, let's just make it a non-optional step. Change-Id: I6c12391dd3e66bd1fbc706f2d936aab543376388

Installing the Undercloud
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
#. Log in to your machine (baremetal or VM) where you want to install the
|
|
undercloud as a non-root user (such as the stack user)::
|
|
|
|
ssh <non-root-user>@<undercloud-machine>
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
If you don't have a non-root user created yet, log in as root and create
|
|
one with following commands::
|
|
|
|
sudo useradd stack
|
|
sudo passwd stack # specify a password
|
|
|
|
echo "stack ALL=(root) NOPASSWD:ALL" | sudo tee -a /etc/sudoers.d/stack
|
|
sudo chmod 0440 /etc/sudoers.d/stack
|
|
|
|
su - stack
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
The undercloud is intended to work correctly with SELinux enforcing, and
|
|
cannot be installed to a system with SELinux disabled. If SELinux
|
|
enforcement must be turned off for some reason, it should instead be set
|
|
to permissive.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
vlan tagged interfaces must follow the if_name.vlan_id convention, like for
|
|
example: eth0.vlan100 or bond0.vlan120.
|
|
|
|
.. admonition:: Baremetal
|
|
:class: baremetal
|
|
|
|
Ensure that there is a FQDN hostname set and that the $HOSTNAME environment
|
|
variable matches that value.
|
|
|
|
Use ``hostnamectl`` to set a hostname if needed::
|
|
|
|
sudo hostnamectl set-hostname myhost.mydomain
|
|
sudo hostnamectl set-hostname --transient myhost.mydomain
|
|
|
|
An entry for the system's FQDN hostname is also needed in /etc/hosts. For
|
|
example, if the system is named *myhost.mydomain*, /etc/hosts should have
|
|
an entry like::
|
|
|
|
127.0.0.1 myhost.mydomain myhost
|
|
|
|
|
|
#. Enable needed repositories:
|
|
|
|
.. admonition:: RHEL
|
|
:class: rhel
|
|
|
|
Enable optional repo::
|
|
|
|
sudo yum install -y yum-utils
|
|
sudo yum-config-manager --enable rhelosp-rhel-7-server-opt
|
|
|
|
.. include:: ../repositories.txt
|
|
|
|
.. We need to manually continue our list numbering here since the above
|
|
"include" directive breaks the numbering.
|
|
|
|
3. Install the yum-plugin-priorities package so that the Delorean repository takes precedence over the main RDO repositories::
|
|
|
|
sudo yum -y install yum-plugin-priorities
|
|
|
|
#. Install the TripleO CLI, which will pull in all other necessary packages as dependencies::
|
|
|
|
sudo yum install -y python-tripleoclient
|
|
|
|
#. Copy in the sample configuration file and edit it to reflect your environment::
|
|
|
|
cp /usr/share/instack-undercloud/undercloud.conf.sample ~/undercloud.conf
|
|
|
|
#. Run the command to install the undercloud:
|
|
|
|
.. admonition:: Source
|
|
:class: source
|
|
|
|
Git checkouts of the puppet modules can be used instead of packages. Export the
|
|
following environment variable::
|
|
|
|
export DIB_INSTALLTYPE_puppet_modules=source
|
|
|
|
It is also possible to use this functionality to use an in-progress review
|
|
as part of the undercloud install. See
|
|
:doc:`../developer/in_progress_review` for details.
|
|
|
|
.. admonition:: SSL
|
|
:class: ssl
|
|
|
|
To deploy an undercloud with SSL, see :doc:`../advanced_deployment/ssl`.
|
|
|
|
.. admonition:: Validations
|
|
|
|
:doc:`../validations/validations` will be installed and
|
|
configured during undercloud installation. You can set
|
|
``enable_validations = false`` in ``undercloud.conf`` to prevent
|
|
that.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Install the undercloud::
|
|
|
|
openstack undercloud install
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once the install has completed, you should take note of the files ``stackrc`` and
|
|
``undercloud-passwords.conf``. You can source ``stackrc`` to interact with the
|
|
undercloud via the OpenStack command-line client. ``undercloud-passwords.conf``
|
|
contains the passwords used for each service in the undercloud. These passwords
|
|
will be automatically reused if the undercloud is reinstalled on the same system,
|
|
so it is not necessary to copy them to ``undercloud.conf``.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
Any passwords set in ``undercloud.conf`` will take precedence over the ones in
|
|
``undercloud-passwords.conf``.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
``openstack undercloud install`` can be rerun to reapply changes from
|
|
undercloud.conf to the undercloud. Note that this should **not** be done if an
|
|
overcloud has already been deployed or is in progress.
