===================================================
|
||||
Creating the Bare Metal service resources from file
|
||||
===================================================
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible to create a set of resources using their descriptions in JSON
|
||||
or YAML format. It can be done in one of three ways:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Using ironic CLI's ``ironic create`` command::
|
||||
|
||||
$ ironic help create
|
||||
usage: ironic create <file> [<file> ...]
|
||||
|
||||
Create baremetal resources (chassis, nodes, and ports). The resources may
|
||||
be described in one or more JSON or YAML files. If any file cannot be
|
||||
validated, no resources are created. An attempt is made to create all the
|
||||
resources; those that could not be created are skipped (with a
|
||||
corresponding error message).
|
||||
|
||||
Positional arguments:
|
||||
<file> File (.yaml or .json) containing descriptions of the resources
|
||||
to create. Can be specified multiple times.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Using openstackclient plugin command ``openstack baremetal create``::
|
||||
|
||||
$ openstack -h baremetal create
|
||||
usage: openstack [-h] [-f {json,shell,table,value,yaml}] [-c COLUMN]
|
||||
[--max-width <integer>] [--noindent] [--prefix PREFIX]
|
||||
[--chassis-uuid <chassis>] [--driver-info <key=value>]
|
||||
[--property <key=value>] [--extra <key=value>]
|
||||
[--uuid <uuid>] [--name <name>]
|
||||
[--network-interface <network_interface>]
|
||||
[--resource-class <resource_class>] [--driver <driver>]
|
||||
[<file> [<file> ...]]
|
||||
|
||||
Create resources from files or Register a new node (DEPRECATED). Create
|
||||
resources from files (by only specifying the files) or register a new
|
||||
node by specifying one or more optional arguments (DEPRECATED, use
|
||||
'openstack baremetal node create' instead).
|
||||
|
||||
positional arguments:
|
||||
<file> File (.yaml or .json) containing descriptions of
|
||||
the resources to create. Can be specified
|
||||
multiple times. If you want to create resources,
|
||||
only specify the files. Do not specify any of
|
||||
the optional arguments.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
If the ``--driver`` argument is passed in, the behaviour of the command
|
||||
is the same as ``openstack baremetal node create``, and positional
|
||||
arguments are ignored. If it is not provided, the command does resource
|
||||
creation from file(s), and only positional arguments will be taken into
|
||||
account.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Programmatically using the Python API:
|
||||
|
||||
.. autofunction:: ironicclient.v1.create_resources.create_resources
|
||||
:noindex:
|
||||
|
||||
File containing Resource Descriptions
|
||||
=====================================
|
||||
|
||||
The resources to be created can be described either in JSON or YAML. A file
|
||||
ending with ``.json`` is assumed to contain valid JSON, and a file ending with
|
||||
``.yaml`` is assumed to contain valid YAML. Specifying a file with any other
|
||||
extension leads to an error.
|
||||
|
||||
The resources that can be created are chassis, nodes, and ports. Only chassis
|
||||
and nodes are accepted at the top level of the file structure, but chassis and
|
||||
nodes themselves can contain nodes or ports definitions nested under ``nodes``
|
||||
(in case of chassis) or ``ports`` (in case of nodes) keys.
|
||||
|
||||
The schema used to validate the supplied data is the following::
|
||||
|
||||
{
|
||||
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#",
|
||||
"description": "Schema for ironic resources file",
|
||||
"type": "object",
|
||||
"properties": {
|
||||
"chassis": {
|
||||
"type": "array",
|
||||
"items": {
|
||||
"type": "object"
|
||||
}
|
||||
},
|
||||
"nodes": {
|
||||
"type": "array",
|
||||
"items": {
|
||||
"type": "object"
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
},
|
||||
"additionalProperties": False
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
More detailed description of the creation process can be seen in the following
|
||||
sections.
|
||||
|
||||
Examples
|
||||
========
|
||||
|
||||
Here is an example of the JSON file that can be passed to the ``create``
|
||||
command::
|
||||
|
||||
{
|
||||
"chassis": [
|
||||
{
|
||||
"description": "chassis 3 in row 23",
|
||||
"nodes": [
|
||||
{
|
||||
"name": "node-3",
|
||||
"driver": "agent_ipmitool",
|
||||
"ports": [
|
||||
{
|
||||
"address": "00:00:00:00:00:02"
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
"address": "00:00:00:00:00:03"
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
"name": "node-4",
|
||||
"driver": "agent_ipmitool",
|
||||
"ports": [
|
||||
{
|
||||
"address": "00:00:00:00:00:04"
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
"address": "00:00:00:00:00:01"
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
],
|
||||
"nodes": [
|
||||
{
|
||||
"name": "node-5",
|
||||
"driver": "pxe_ipmitool",
|
||||
"chassis_uuid": "74d93e6e-7384-4994-a614-fd7b399b0785",
|
||||
"ports": [
|
||||
{
|
||||
"address": "00:00:00:00:00:00"
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
"name": "node-6",
|
||||
"driver": "pxe_ipmitool"
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
Creation Process
|
||||
================
|
||||
|
||||
#. The client deserializes the files' contents and validates that the top-level
|
||||
dictionary in each of them contains only "chassis" and/or "nodes" keys,
|
||||
and their values are lists. The creation process is aborted if any failure
|
||||
is encountered in this stage. The rest of the validation is done by the
|
||||
ironic-api service.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Each resource is created via issuing a POST request (with the resource's
|
||||
dictionary representation in the body) to the ironic-api service. In the
|
||||
case of nested resources (``"nodes"`` key inside chassis, or ``"ports"``
|
||||
key inside nodes), the top-level resource is created first, followed by the
|
||||
sub-resources. For example, if a chassis contains a list of nodes, the
|
||||
chassis will be created first followed by the creation of each node. The
|
||||
same is true for ports described within nodes.
|
||||
|
||||
#. If a resource could not be created, it does not stop the entire process.
|
||||
Any sub-resources of the failed resource will not be created, but otherwise,
|
||||
the rest of the resources will be created if possible. Any failed resources
|
||||
will be mentioned in the response.
