Specifying the disk for deployment
|
||||
==================================
|
||||
|
||||
Starting with the Kilo release, Bare Metal service supports passing
|
||||
hints to the deploy ramdisk about which disk it should pick for the
|
||||
deployment. The list of support hints is:
|
||||
The `Specifying the disk for deployment`_ section has been moved to the Bare
|
||||
Metal service Install Guide.
|
||||
|
||||
* model (STRING): device identifier
|
||||
* vendor (STRING): device vendor
|
||||
* serial (STRING): disk serial number
|
||||
* size (INT): size of the device in GiB
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
A node's 'local_gb' property is often set to a value 1 GiB less than the
|
||||
actual disk size to account for partitioning (this is how DevStack, TripleO
|
||||
and Ironic Inspector work, to name a few). However, in this case ``size``
|
||||
should be the actual size. For example, for a 128 GiB disk ``local_gb``
|
||||
will be 127, but size hint will be 128.
|
||||
|
||||
* wwn (STRING): unique storage identifier
|
||||
* wwn_with_extension (STRING): unique storage identifier with the vendor extension appended
|
||||
* wwn_vendor_extension (STRING): unique vendor storage identifier
|
||||
* rotational (BOOLEAN): whether it's a rotational device or not. This
|
||||
hint makes it easier to distinguish HDDs (rotational) and SSDs (not
|
||||
rotational) when choosing which disk Ironic should deploy the image onto.
|
||||
* name (STRING): the device name, e.g /dev/md0
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. warning::
|
||||
The root device hint name should only be used for devices with
|
||||
constant names (e.g RAID volumes). For SATA, SCSI and IDE disk
|
||||
controllers this hint is not recommended because the order in which
|
||||
the device nodes are added in Linux is arbitrary, resulting in
|
||||
devices like /dev/sda and /dev/sdb `switching around at boot time
|
||||
<https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Storage_Administration_Guide/persistent_naming.html>`_.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
To associate one or more hints with a node, update the node's properties
|
||||
with a ``root_device`` key, for example::
|
||||
|
||||
ironic node-update <node-uuid> add properties/root_device='{"wwn": "0x4000cca77fc4dba1"}'
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
That will guarantee that Bare Metal service will pick the disk device that
|
||||
has the ``wwn`` equal to the specified wwn value, or fail the deployment if it
|
||||
can not be found.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
If multiple hints are specified, a device must satisfy all the hints.

Enabling HTTPS in Swift
|
||||
=======================
|
||||
|
||||
The drivers using virtual media use swift for storing boot images
|
||||
and node configuration information (contains sensitive information for Ironic
|
||||
conductor to provision bare metal hardware). By default, HTTPS is not enabled
|
||||
in swift. HTTPS is required to encrypt all communication between swift and Ironic
|
||||
conductor and swift and bare metal (via virtual media). It can be enabled in one
|
||||
of the following ways:

||||
image service does not use HTTPS, but it is required for secure communication.

It can be enabled by making the following changes to ``/etc/glance/glance-api.conf``:

Using Bare Metal service as a standalone service
|
||||
================================================
|
||||
|
||||
Starting with the Kilo release, it's possible to use Bare Metal service without
|
||||
other OpenStack services.
|
||||
|
||||
You should make the following changes to ``/etc/ironic/ironic.conf``:
|
||||
The `Using Bare Metal service as a standalone service`_ section has been moved
|
||||
to the Bare Metal service Install Guide.
|
||||
|
||||
#. To disable usage of Identity service tokens::
|
||||
|
||||
[DEFAULT]
|
||||
...
|
||||
auth_strategy=none
|
||||
|
||||
#. If you want to disable the Networking service, you should have your network
|
||||
pre-configured to serve DHCP and TFTP for machines that you're deploying.
|
||||
To disable it, change the following lines::
|
||||
|
||||
[dhcp]
|
||||
...
|
||||
dhcp_provider=none
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
If you disabled the Networking service and the driver that you use is
|
||||
supported by at most one conductor, PXE boot will still work for your
|
||||
nodes without any manual config editing. This is because you know all
|
||||
the DHCP options that will be used for deployment and can set up your
|
||||
DHCP server appropriately.
|
||||
|
||||
If you have multiple conductors per driver, it would be better to use
|
||||
Networking since it will do all the dynamically changing configurations
|
||||
for you.
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't use Image service, it's possible to provide images to Bare Metal
|
||||
service via hrefs.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
At the moment, only two types of hrefs are acceptable instead of Image
|
||||
service UUIDs: HTTP(S) hrefs (for example, "http://my.server.net/images/img")
|
||||
and file hrefs (file:///images/img).
|
||||
|
||||
There are however some limitations for different drivers:
|
||||
|
||||
* If you're using one of the drivers that use agent deploy method (namely,
|
||||
``agent_ilo``, ``agent_ipmitool``, ``agent_pyghmi``, ``agent_ssh`` or
|
||||
``agent_vbox``) you have to know MD5 checksum for your instance image. To
|
||||
compute it, you can use the following command::
|
||||
|
||||
md5sum image.qcow2
|
||||
ed82def8730f394fb85aef8a208635f6 image.qcow2
|
||||
|
||||
Apart from that, because of the way the agent deploy method works, image
|
||||
hrefs can use only HTTP(S) protocol.
|
||||
|
||||
* If you're using ``iscsi_ilo`` or ``agent_ilo`` driver, Object Storage service
|
||||
is required, as these drivers need to store floppy image that is used to pass
|
||||
parameters to deployment iso. For this method also only HTTP(S) hrefs are
|
||||
acceptable, as HP iLO servers cannot attach other types of hrefs as virtual
|
||||
media.
|
||||
|
||||
* Other drivers use PXE deploy method and there are no special requirements
|
||||
in this case.
|
||||
|
||||
Steps to start a deployment are pretty similar to those when using Compute:
|
||||
|
||||
#. To use the `ironic CLI <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/python-ironicclient/cli.html>`_,
|
||||
set up these environment variables. Since no authentication strategy is
|
||||
being used, the value can be any string for OS_AUTH_TOKEN. IRONIC_URL is
|
||||
the URL of the ironic-api process.
|
||||
For example::
|
||||
|
||||
export OS_AUTH_TOKEN=fake-token
|
||||
export IRONIC_URL=http://localhost:6385/
|
||||
|
||||
#. Create a node in Bare Metal service. At minimum, you must specify the driver
|
||||
name (for example, "pxe_ipmitool"). You can also specify all the required
|
||||
driver parameters in one command. This will return the node UUID::
|
||||
|
||||
ironic node-create -d pxe_ipmitool -i ipmi_address=ipmi.server.net \
|
||||
-i ipmi_username=user -i ipmi_password=pass \
|
||||
-i deploy_kernel=file:///images/deploy.vmlinuz \
|
||||
-i deploy_ramdisk=http://my.server.net/images/deploy.ramdisk

|
||||
|
||||
Note that here deploy_kernel and deploy_ramdisk contain links to
|
||||
images instead of Image service UUIDs.
|
||||
|
||||
#. As in case of Compute service, you can also provide ``capabilities`` to node
|
||||
properties, but they will be used only by Bare Metal service (for example,
|
||||
boot mode). Although you don't need to add properties like ``memory_mb``,
|
||||
``cpus`` etc. as Bare Metal service will require UUID of a node you're
|
||||
going to deploy.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Then create a port to inform Bare Metal service of the network interface
|
||||
cards which are part of the node by creating a port with each NIC's MAC
|
||||
address. In this case, they're used for naming of PXE configs for a node::
|
||||
|
||||
ironic port-create -n $NODE_UUID -a $MAC_ADDRESS
|
||||
|
||||
#. As there is no Compute service flavor and instance image is not provided with
|
||||
nova boot command, you also need to specify some fields in ``instance_info``.
|
||||
For PXE deployment, they are ``image_source``, ``kernel``, ``ramdisk``,
|
||||
``root_gb``::
|
||||
|
||||
ironic node-update $NODE_UUID add instance_info/image_source=$IMG \
|
||||
instance_info/kernel=$KERNEL instance_info/ramdisk=$RAMDISK \
|
||||
instance_info/root_gb=10
|
||||
|
||||
Here $IMG, $KERNEL, $RAMDISK can also be HTTP(S) or file hrefs. For agent
|
||||
drivers, you don't need to specify kernel and ramdisk, but MD5 checksum of
|
||||
instance image is required::
|
||||
|
||||
ironic node-update $NODE_UUID add instance_info/image_checksum=$MD5HASH
|
||||
|
||||
#. Validate that all parameters are correct::
|
||||
|
||||
ironic node-validate $NODE_UUID
|
||||
|
||||
+------------+--------+----------------------------------------------------------------+
|
||||
| Interface | Result | Reason |
|
||||
+------------+--------+----------------------------------------------------------------+
|
||||
| console | False | Missing 'ipmi_terminal_port' parameter in node's driver_info. |
|
||||
| deploy | True | |
|
||||
| management | True | |
|
||||
| power | True | |
|
||||
+------------+--------+----------------------------------------------------------------+
|
||||
|
||||
#. Now you can start the deployment, run::
|
||||
|
||||
ironic node-set-provision-state $NODE_UUID active
|
||||
|
||||
You can manage provisioning by issuing this command. Valid provision states
|
||||
are ``active``, ``rebuild`` and ``deleted``.
|
||||
|
||||
For iLO drivers, fields that should be provided are:
|
||||
|
||||
* ``ilo_deploy_iso`` under ``driver_info``;
|
||||
|
||||
* ``ilo_boot_iso``, ``image_source``, ``root_gb`` under ``instance_info``.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
Before Liberty release Ironic was not able to track non-Glance images'
|
||||
content changes. Starting with Liberty, it is possible to do so using image
|
||||
modification date. For example, for HTTP image, if 'Last-Modified' header
|
||||
value from response to a HEAD request to
|
||||
"http://my.server.net/images/deploy.ramdisk" is greater than cached image
|
||||
modification time, Ironic will re-download the content. For "file://"
|
||||
images, the file system modification time is used.

should be the actual size. For example, for a 128 GiB disk ``local_gb``
|
||||
will be 127, but size hint will be 128.
|
||||
|
||||
* wwn (STRING): unique storage identifier
|
||||
* wwn_with_extension (STRING): unique storage identifier with the vendor extension appended
|
||||
* wwn_vendor_extension (STRING): unique vendor storage identifier
|
||||
* rotational (BOOLEAN): whether it's a rotational device or not. This
|
||||
hint makes it easier to distinguish HDDs (rotational) and SSDs (not
|
||||
rotational) when choosing which disk Ironic should deploy the image onto.
|
||||
* name (STRING): the device name, e.g /dev/md0
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. warning::
|
||||
The root device hint name should only be used for devices with
|
||||
constant names (e.g RAID volumes). For SATA, SCSI and IDE disk
|
||||
controllers this hint is not recommended because the order in which
|
||||
the device nodes are added in Linux is arbitrary, resulting in
|
||||
devices like /dev/sda and /dev/sdb `switching around at boot time
|
||||
<https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Storage_Administration_Guide/persistent_naming.html>`_.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
To associate one or more hints with a node, update the node's properties
|
||||
with a ``root_device`` key, for example::
|
||||
|
||||
ironic node-update <node-uuid> add properties/root_device='{"wwn": "0x4000cca77fc4dba1"}'
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
That will guarantee that Bare Metal service will pick the disk device that
|
||||
has the ``wwn`` equal to the specified wwn value, or fail the deployment if it
|
||||
can not be found.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
If multiple hints are specified, a device must satisfy all the hints.

Using Bare Metal service as a standalone service
|
||||
================================================
|
||||
|
||||
Starting with the Kilo release, it's possible to use Bare Metal service without
|
||||
other OpenStack services.
|
||||
|
||||
You should make the following changes to ``/etc/ironic/ironic.conf``:
|
||||
|
||||
#. To disable usage of Identity service tokens::
|
||||
|
||||
[DEFAULT]
|
||||
...
|
||||
auth_strategy=none
|
||||
|
||||
#. If you want to disable the Networking service, you should have your network
|
||||
pre-configured to serve DHCP and TFTP for machines that you're deploying.
|
||||
To disable it, change the following lines::
|
||||
|
||||
[dhcp]
|
||||
...
|
||||
dhcp_provider=none
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
If you disabled the Networking service and the driver that you use is
|
||||
supported by at most one conductor, PXE boot will still work for your
|
||||
nodes without any manual config editing. This is because you know all
|
||||
the DHCP options that will be used for deployment and can set up your
|
||||
DHCP server appropriately.
|
||||
|
||||
If you have multiple conductors per driver, it would be better to use
|
||||
Networking since it will do all the dynamically changing configurations
|
||||
for you.
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't use Image service, it's possible to provide images to Bare Metal
|
||||
service via hrefs.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
At the moment, only two types of hrefs are acceptable instead of Image
|
||||
service UUIDs: HTTP(S) hrefs (for example, "http://my.server.net/images/img")
|
||||
and file hrefs (file:///images/img).
|
||||
|
||||
There are however some limitations for different drivers:
|
||||
|
||||
* If you're using one of the drivers that use agent deploy method (namely,
|
||||
``agent_ilo``, ``agent_ipmitool``, ``agent_pyghmi``, ``agent_ssh`` or
|
||||
``agent_vbox``) you have to know MD5 checksum for your instance image. To
|
||||
compute it, you can use the following command::
|
||||
|
||||
md5sum image.qcow2
|
||||
ed82def8730f394fb85aef8a208635f6 image.qcow2
|
||||
|
||||
Apart from that, because of the way the agent deploy method works, image
|
||||
hrefs can use only HTTP(S) protocol.
|
||||
|
||||
* If you're using ``iscsi_ilo`` or ``agent_ilo`` driver, Object Storage service
|
||||
is required, as these drivers need to store floppy image that is used to pass
|
||||
parameters to deployment iso. For this method also only HTTP(S) hrefs are
|
||||
acceptable, as HP iLO servers cannot attach other types of hrefs as virtual
|
||||
media.
|
||||
|
||||
* Other drivers use PXE deploy method and there are no special requirements
|
||||
in this case.
|
||||
|
||||
Steps to start a deployment are pretty similar to those when using Compute:
|
||||
|
||||
#. To use the `ironic CLI <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/python-ironicclient/cli.html>`_,
|
||||
set up these environment variables. Since no authentication strategy is
|
||||
being used, the value can be any string for OS_AUTH_TOKEN. IRONIC_URL is
|
||||
the URL of the ironic-api process.
|
||||
For example::
|
||||
|
||||
export OS_AUTH_TOKEN=fake-token
|
||||
export IRONIC_URL=http://localhost:6385/
|
||||
|
||||
#. Create a node in Bare Metal service. At minimum, you must specify the driver
|
||||
name (for example, "pxe_ipmitool"). You can also specify all the required
|
||||
driver parameters in one command. This will return the node UUID::
|
||||
|
||||
ironic node-create -d pxe_ipmitool -i ipmi_address=ipmi.server.net \
|
||||
-i ipmi_username=user -i ipmi_password=pass \
|
||||
-i deploy_kernel=file:///images/deploy.vmlinuz \
|
||||
-i deploy_ramdisk=http://my.server.net/images/deploy.ramdisk
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
| driver_info | {u'deploy_ramdisk': u'http://my.server.net/images/deploy.ramdisk', |
|
||||
| | u'deploy_kernel': u'file:///images/deploy.vmlinuz', u'ipmi_address': |
|
||||
| | u'ipmi.server.net', u'ipmi_username': u'user', u'ipmi_password': |
|

|

| driver | pxe_ipmitool |
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
||||
|
||||
Note that here deploy_kernel and deploy_ramdisk contain links to
|
||||
images instead of Image service UUIDs.
|
||||
|
||||
#. As in case of Compute service, you can also provide ``capabilities`` to node
|
||||
properties, but they will be used only by Bare Metal service (for example,
|
||||
boot mode). Although you don't need to add properties like ``memory_mb``,
|
||||
``cpus`` etc. as Bare Metal service will require UUID of a node you're
|
||||
going to deploy.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Then create a port to inform Bare Metal service of the network interface
|
||||
cards which are part of the node by creating a port with each NIC's MAC
|
||||
address. In this case, they're used for naming of PXE configs for a node::
|
||||
|
||||
ironic port-create -n $NODE_UUID -a $MAC_ADDRESS
|
||||
|
||||
#. As there is no Compute service flavor and instance image is not provided with
|
||||
nova boot command, you also need to specify some fields in ``instance_info``.
|
||||
For PXE deployment, they are ``image_source``, ``kernel``, ``ramdisk``,
|
||||
``root_gb``::
|
||||
|
||||
ironic node-update $NODE_UUID add instance_info/image_source=$IMG \
|
||||
instance_info/kernel=$KERNEL instance_info/ramdisk=$RAMDISK \
|
||||
instance_info/root_gb=10
|
||||
|
||||
Here $IMG, $KERNEL, $RAMDISK can also be HTTP(S) or file hrefs. For agent
|
||||
drivers, you don't need to specify kernel and ramdisk, but MD5 checksum of
|
||||
instance image is required::
|
||||
|
||||
ironic node-update $NODE_UUID add instance_info/image_checksum=$MD5HASH
|
||||
|
||||
#. Validate that all parameters are correct::
|
||||
|
||||
ironic node-validate $NODE_UUID
|
||||
|
||||
+------------+--------+----------------------------------------------------------------+
|
||||
| Interface | Result | Reason |
|
||||
+------------+--------+----------------------------------------------------------------+
|
||||
| console | False | Missing 'ipmi_terminal_port' parameter in node's driver_info. |
|
||||
| deploy | True | |
|
||||
| management | True | |
|
||||
| power | True | |
|
||||
+------------+--------+----------------------------------------------------------------+
|
||||
|
||||
#. Now you can start the deployment, run::
|
||||
|
||||
ironic node-set-provision-state $NODE_UUID active
|
||||
|
||||
You can manage provisioning by issuing this command. Valid provision states
|
||||
are ``active``, ``rebuild`` and ``deleted``.
|
||||
|
||||
For iLO drivers, fields that should be provided are:
|
||||
|
||||
* ``ilo_deploy_iso`` under ``driver_info``;
|
||||
|
||||
* ``ilo_boot_iso``, ``image_source``, ``root_gb`` under ``instance_info``.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
Before Liberty release Ironic was not able to track non-Glance images'
|
||||
content changes. Starting with Liberty, it is possible to do so using image
|
||||
modification date. For example, for HTTP image, if 'Last-Modified' header
|
||||
value from response to a HEAD request to
|
||||
"http://my.server.net/images/deploy.ramdisk" is greater than cached image
|
||||
modification time, Ironic will re-download the content. For "file://"
|
||||
images, the file system modification time is used.
