tripleo-upgrade

This role aims to provide a unified tool for upgrading TripleO based deploments.

Requirements

This role requires:

• An ansible inventory file containing reacheable undercloud and overcloud nodes

• Nodes in the inventory file are placed in groups based on their roles (e.g compute nodes are part of the 'compute' group)

• Repositories containing packages to be upgraded are already installed on undercloud and overcloud nodes (or, for overcloud, define an upgrade_init_command variable)

• The initial overcloud deploy command is placed in a script file located in the path set by the overcloud_deploy_script var. Each option/environment file should be placed on a separate new line, e.g:

  source ~/stackrc
  export THT=/usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/
  
  openstack overcloud deploy --templates $THT \
  -r ~/openstack_deployment/roles/roles_data.yaml \
  -e $THT/environments/network-isolation.yaml \
  -e $THT/environments/network-management.yaml \
  -e $THT/environments/storage-environment.yaml \
  -e ~/openstack_deployment/environments/nodes.yaml \
  -e ~/openstack_deployment/environments/network-environment.yaml \
  -e ~/openstack_deployment/environments/disk-layout.yaml \
  -e ~/openstack_deployment/environments/neutron-settings.yaml \
  --log-file overcloud_deployment.log &> overcloud_install.log

Location of the undercloud upgrade script which is going to be generated by this role:

overcloud_composable_upgrade_script: "~/composable_docker_upgrade.sh"

Location of the upgrade script used in the composable docker upgrade step which is going to be generated by this role:

overcloud_converge_upgrade_script: "~/converge_docker_upgrade.sh"

Location of the upgrade script used in the converge docker upgrade step which is going to be generated by this role:

Location of the undercloud credentials file:

overcloud_rc: "~/overcloudrc"

Location of the overcloud credentials file:

upgrade_workarounds: false

Allows the user to apply known issues workarounds during the upgrade process. The list of patches/commands used for workarounds should be passed via --extra-vars and it should include dictionaries for undercloud/overcloud workarounds:

use_oooq: false

Set to true when the deployment has been done by tripleo quickstart:

workload_launch: false

Set to true to launch an instance before starting upgrade. This can be useful for running tests during upgrade such as live migration or floating IP connectivity checks:

external_network_name: "public"

Name of the external network providing floating IPs for instance connectivity. This provides external connectivity and needs to exist beforehand, created by the user:

workload_image_url: "https://download.cirros-cloud.net/0.4.0/cirros-0.4.0-x86_64-disk.img"

URL of the image used for the workload instance:

workload_memory: "512"

Amount of memory assigned for the workload instance:

tripleo_ci: false

Set to true when running the role in the TripleO CI jobs. It avoids losing connectivity to the undercloud by skipping reboot and ssh kill tasks:

upgrade_init_command: |
    sudo tripleo-repos -b pike current

Bash commands, defines a custom upgrade init to be taken into account during overcloud upgrade.

Dependencies

None.

Example Playbook

An example playbook is provided in tests/test.yml:

- hosts: undercloud
  gather_facts: true
  become: true
  become_method: sudo
  become_user: stack
  roles:
    - tripleo-upgrade

Usage with tripleo Quickstart

After a successful deployment with OOOQ, you can create the necessary scripts using this example playbook (duplicate from ./tests/oooq-test.yaml):

---
- hosts: undercloud
  gather_facts: true
  become: true
  become_method: sudo
  become_user: stack
  roles:
  - { role: tripleo-upgrade, use_oooq: 'true'}

And then you run it like this (adjust the paths to your oooq specific one):

ANSIBLE_SSH_ARGS="-F $(pwd)/ssh.config.ansible" \
  ANSIBLE_CONFIG=$PWD/ansible.cfg \
  ansible-playbook -i hosts -vvv tripleo-upgrade/tests/oooq-test.yaml

This will only create the file (without running the actual upgrade):

• undercloud_upgrade.sh
• composable_docker_upgrade.sh
• overcloud-compute-*_upgrade_pre.sh
• overcloud-compute-*_upgrade.sh
• overcloud-compute-*_upgrade_post.sh
• converge_docker_upgrade.sh

with the correct parameters.

Usage with InfraRed

tripleo-upgrade comes preinstalled as an InfraRed plugin. In order to install it manually, the following InfraRed command should be used:

infrared plugin add tripleo-upgrade
# add with a specific revision / branch
infrared plugin add --revision stable/pike tripleo-upgrade

After a successful InfraRed overcloud deployment you need to run the following steps to upgrade the deployment:

Symlink roles path:

ln -s $(pwd)/plugins $(pwd)/plugins/tripleo-upgrade/infrared_plugin/roles

Set up undercloud upgrade repositories:

infrared tripleo-undercloud \
    --upgrade yes \
    --mirror ${mirror_location} \
    --ansible-args="tags=upgrade_repos"

Set up undercloud update repositories:

infrared tripleo-undercloud \
    --update-undercloud yes \
    --mirror ${mirror_location} \
    --build latest \
    --version 12 \
    --ansible-args="tags=upgrade_repos"

Upgrade undercloud:

infrared tripleo-upgrade \
    --undercloud-upgrade yes

Update undercloud:

infrared tripleo-upgrade \
    --undercloud-update yes

Set up overcloud upgrade repositories:

infrared tripleo-overcloud \
    --deployment-files virt \
    --upgrade yes \
    --mirror ${mirror_location} \
    --ansible-args="tags=upgrade_collect_info,upgrade_repos"

Set up overcloud update repositories/containers:

infrared tripleo-overcloud \
    --deployment-files virt \
    --ocupdate True \
    --build latest \
    --ansible-args="tags=update_collect_info,update_undercloud_validation,update_repos,update_prepare_containers"

Upgrade overcloud:

infrared tripleo-upgrade \
    --overcloud-upgrade yes

Update overcloud::

infrared tripleo-upgrade --overcloud-update yes

Running the role manually from the undercloud

This role can be run manually from the undercloud by doing the following steps:

Note: before starting the upgrade process make sure that both the undercloud and overcloud nodes have the repositories with upgraded packages set up

Clone this repository

git clone https://opendev.org/openstack/tripleo-upgrade

Set ansible roles path::

ANSIBLE_ROLES_PATH=$(pwd)

Create inventory file::

printf "[undercloud]nlocalhost ansible_connection=local" > hosts

Run the playbook including this role::

ansible-playbook -i hosts tripleo-upgrade/tests/test.yml
