An ansible role to configure an OpenAFS client .. note:: This role uses system packages where available, but for platforms or architectures where they are not available will require external builds. Defaults will pick external packages from OpenStack Infra builds, but you should evaluate if this is suitable for your environment. This role configures the host to be an `OpenAFS `__ client. Because OpenAFS is very reliant on distribution internals, kernel versions and host architecture this role has limited platform support. Currently supported are * Debian family with system packages available * Ubuntu LTS family with external 1.8 series packages * CentOS 7 and 8 with external packages **Role Variables** .. zuul:rolevar:: openafs_client_cell :default: openstack.org The default cell. .. zuul:rolevar:: openafs_client_cache_size :default: 500000 The OpenAFS client cache size, in kilobytes. .. zuul:rolevar:: openafs_client_cache_directory :default: /var/cache/openafs The directory to store the OpenAFS cache files. .. zuul:rolevar:: openafs_client_yum_repo_url :default: ``https://tarballs.openstack.org/project-config/package-afs-centos7`` The URL to a yum/dnf repository with the OpenAFS client RPMs. These are assumed to be created from the ``.spec`` file included in the OpenAFS distribution. .. zuul:rolevar:: openafs_client_yum_repo_gpg_check :default: no Enable or disable gpg checking for ``openafs_yum_repo_url`` .. zuul:rolevar:: openafs_client_service_timeout_sec :default: 480 The TimeoutSec for service start. Accounting for the cache during startup can cause a high load which may necessitate a longer startup timeout on some platforms.
