# Devstack Installer for Tacker ## What is this Deployment tool for devstack for testing multi-VM OpenStack environment, consists of vagrant and ansible. It only supports Ubuntu on VirtualBox currently. ## How to use ### Requirements You need to install required software before running this tool. Please follow instructions on official sites for installation. * [VirtualBox](https://www.virtualbox.org/) * [vagrant](https://www.vagrantup.com/) * [ansible](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/installation_guide/intro_installation.html) Before launching your VMs, you should should install plugin `vagrant-disksize` for expanding size of volume of VM. It is because the default size of box provided from Ubuntu, 10GB or so, is not enough for deploying devstack environment. It's required for expanding the volume size. ```sh $ vagrant plugin install vagrant-disksize ``` ### Configure and Fire Up VMs Before launching VMs with vagrant, configure `machines.yml`, which defines parameters of each VM you deploy. It should be placed at project root, or failed to run `vagrant up`. You can use template files in `samples` directory. ```sh $ cp samples/machines.yml . $ YOUR_FAVORITE_EDITOR machines.yml ``` You should take care about `private_ips` which is used in `hosts` for `ansible-playbook` as explained later. You should confirm you have a SSH public key before you run vagrant. If your key is different from `~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub`, update `ssh_pub_key` in `machines.yml`. Run `vagrant up` after configurations are done. It launches VMs and create a user `stack` on them. ```sh $ vagrant up ``` If `vagrant up` is completed successfully, you are ready to login to VMs as `stack` user with your SSH public key. ### Setup Devstack This tool provides ansible playbooks for setting up devstack. You should update entries of IP addresses in `hosts` as you defined `private_ips` in `machines.yml`. There are some parameters in `group_vars/all.yml` such as password on devstack or optional configurations. You don't need to update it usually. ```sh $ ansible-playbook -i hosts site.yaml ``` After finished ansible's tasks, you can login to launched VMs with hostname you defined in `machines.yml`. So, let's login to controller node and OpenStack. You will find that two examples of `local.conf` are prepared in `$HOME/devstack` for your environment. * local.conf.example * local.conf.kubernetes ```sh $ ssh stack@192.168.56.11 $ cd devstack $ cp local.conf.kubernetes local.conf $ ./stack.sh ``` See instruction how to configure `local.conf` described in [DevStack Quick Start](https://docs.openstack.org/devstack/latest/).
