Ubuntu 24.04 is the first release where package sources for Ubuntu are stored in a `.sources` file called `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu.sources`, instead of the traditional `sources.list`. This means that we have lost the ability to override the system's default repositories. Previously, we could use the `apt_disable_sources_list` setting to disable default repositories and provide our own using `apt_repositories`. However, this is no longer possible. Now, each element of `apt_repositories` contains a field called `name`, which specifies the name of the repository file (without the `.sources` suffix). The default value of this field is `kayobe` and it may be omitted. The user can override the default by providing a different name, such as `ubuntu`, and new repository data. This way, the default file, `/etc/apt/source.list.d/ubuntu.sources`, will be overwritten by the provided repository configuration.

Kayobe
Kayobe enables deployment of containerised OpenStack to bare metal.
Containers offer a compelling solution for isolating OpenStack services, but running the control plane on an orchestrator such as Kubernetes or Docker Swarm adds significant complexity and operational overheads.
The hosts in an OpenStack control plane must somehow be provisioned, but deploying a secondary OpenStack cloud to do this seems like overkill.
Kayobe stands on the shoulders of giants:
- OpenStack bifrost discovers and provisions the cloud
- OpenStack kolla builds container images for OpenStack services
- OpenStack kolla-ansible delivers painless deployment and upgrade of containerised OpenStack services
To this solid base, kayobe adds:
- Configuration of cloud host OS & flexible networking
- Management of physical network devices
- A friendly openstack-like CLI
All this and more, automated from top to bottom using Ansible.
Features
- Heavily automated using Ansible
- kayobe Command Line Interface (CLI) for cloud operators
- Deployment of a seed VM used to manage the OpenStack control plane
- Configuration of physical network infrastructure
- Discovery, introspection and provisioning of control plane hardware using OpenStack bifrost
- Deployment of an OpenStack control plane using OpenStack kolla-ansible
- Discovery, introspection and provisioning of bare metal compute hosts using OpenStack ironic and ironic inspector
- Virtualised compute using OpenStack nova
- Containerised workloads on bare metal using OpenStack magnum
- Control plane monitoring using Prometheus and Grafana.
- Log aggregation using OpenSearch and OpenSearch Dashboards.
