Create Server
=============

The commands in this section should be run as root on the bastion
host.

To launch a node in the OpenStack CI account (production servers)::

  export OS_CLOUD=openstackci-rax
  export OS_REGION_NAME=DFW
  export FLAVOR="8 GB Performance"
  export FQDN=servername01.opendev.org

  /usr/launcher-venv/bin/launch-node $FQDN --flavor "$FLAVOR" \
    --cloud=$OS_CLOUD --region=$OS_REGION_NAME

Manually add the hostname to DNS (the launch script does not do so
automatically, but it prints the commands to run). Note that for
*.opendev.org hosts you'll only be able to add the reverse dns
records via the printed commands. Forward A and AAAA records should
be added to ``opendev/zone-opendev.org/zones/opendev.org/zone.db``.

We need to add the host to our static inventory file so that
the ansible runs see the new host. The launch script prints out
the appropriate lines to add to
``opendev/system-config:inventory/openstack.yaml``.

In order for Ansible to work, you also need to accept the root SSH
key for the new server. Once the new DNS entries have propagated,
as ``root`` on the bastion server::

  ssh root@$FQDN

Verify the fingerprint of the new server and type "yes" to accept.
Then you can log out.

Add DNS Records
===============

The launch-node script will print the commands needed to be
run to configure DNS for a newly launched server.  To see the commands
for an existing server, run::

  /usr/launcher-venv/bin/show-dns $FQDN
