Openstack – Running PackStack Interactively

  Uncategorized

OpenStack can be deployed by running PackStack interactively. PackStack supports the creation of both single node and multiple node OpenStack deployments.

Note

The procedure below lists all the questions that PackStack prompts you to answer. Based on the choices you make, some of these options might be skipped during the setup.

Procedure 5.3. Running PackStack Interactively

  1. Running PackStackRun the packstack command to commence the deployment process. Optionally append the --debugparameter to enable additional logging.# packstackImportantYou are not required to log in as the root user to run the packstack command itself. However you will be required to provide root credentials for each machine to which you choose to deploy services.
  2. Configuring the Public KeyEach server involved in the OpenStack deployment is configured for key-based authentication. If you already have a public key that you wish to use for this, enter the path to it. If you do not, then press Enterand the utility will generate one for you and save it to ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.Enter the path to your ssh Public key to install on servers:
  3. Selecting the MySQL DatabasePackStack will prompt you to choose if you want to install MySQL database on the same host or on a remote host.Should Packstack install MySQL DB [y|n] [y] :NotePackStack is capable of installing a single MySQL database node. On the other hand, PackStack does not handle MySQL cluster installation, but it allows you to work with a MySQL cluster that you have set up separately.If you choose n, PackStack asks you for credentials and uses CONFIG_MYSQL_HOST as a given remote database.
  4. Selecting the Services to InstallThe PackStack script will prompt you to select the OpenStack services that you want to install and configure. At each prompt enter y to install the service, enter n to skip the service, or press Enter to select the default option listed in square brackets ([]).Should Packstack install OpenStack Image service (Glance) [y|n] [y] : Should Packstack install OpenStack Block Storage service (Cinder) [y|n] [y] : Should Packstack install OpenStack Compute service (Nova) [y|n] [y] : Should Packstack install OpenStack Networking service (Neutron) [y|n] [y] : Should Packstack install OpenStack Dashboard service (Horizon) [y|n] [y] : Should Packstack install OpenStack Object Storage service (Swift) [y|n] [n] : Should Packstack install OpenStack Telemetry service (Ceilometer) [y|n] [y] : Should Packstack install Heat [y|n] [n] : NoteDepending on which services you selected for installation, the ensuing prompts in this procedure will vary.Each selected service can be deployed on either a local or remote system. Where each service deploys to will be determined based on the IP addresses you provide later in the deployment process.
  5. OpenStack includes a number of client tools. Enter y to install the client tools. A file containing the authentication values of the administrative user will also be created.Should Packstack install OpenStack client tools [y|n] [y] :
  6. Optionally, the PackStack script will configure all servers in the deployment to retrieve date and time information using Network Time Protocol (NTP). To use this facility enter a comma separated pool of NTP servers.Enter a comma separated list of NTP server(s).

OpenStack Networking supports proxying those requests to nova-api, even when the requests are made from isolated networks, or from multiple networks that use overlapping IP addresses. In order to use this functionality, OpenStack Networking must install the metadata agent. Enter the IP addresses on which the metadata agent should be set up.Enter a comma separated list of IP addresses on which to install the Neutron metadata agent [192.0.43.10] :
    8. OpenStack Networking allocates tenant networks. Enter the type of network to allocate to the tenant networks.The use of local tenant networks is recommended for all-in-one deployments. The use of vlan tenant networks is recommended for multi-node deployments. The Open vSwitch Neutron plugin supports GRE tunneling, and you can select gre as long as the installed kernel (version 2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64 or later) and Open vSwitch userspace support GRE tunneling too.Enter the type of network to allocate for tenant networks [local|vlan|gre] [local] :
    9. Enter a list of VLAN ranges for use with the selected plug-in.Each tuple in the list is expected to be in the format PHYSICAL:START:END. Note that PHYSICAL is just a user-provided label for a network name, not necessarily a physical device. Replace PHYSICAL with the name of a network, replace START with the start of the VLAN range to identify with it, and replace END with the end of the VLAN range to associate with it.For example, with a network called “physnet1” that has a VLAN range from 1 to 1000, you would specify “physnet1:1:1000”.Enter a comma separated list of VLAN ranges for the Neutron openvswitch plugin:
    10. Enter a list of bridge mappings for the OpenStack Networking Open vSwitch plugin.Each tuple in the list is expected to be in the format PHYSICAL:BRIDGE. Replace PHYSICAL with the name of a network, and replace BRIDGE with the name of the Open vSwitch bridge that will be used to connect to the network.Continuing the example above, with physnet1 using the interface called “br-eth1”, you could use the default option so physnet1 consists of VLANs 1 to 1000 on bridge br-eth1.Enter a comma separated list of bridge mappings for the Neutron openvswitch plugin [physnet1:br-eth1] :

Type yes and press Enter to continue with the deployment.Depending on the options you chose, the following screen’s content will vary.Installer will be installed using the following configuration: ============================================================== ssh-public-key: /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub os-mysql-install: y os-glance-install: y os-cinder-install: y os-nova-install: y os-neutron-install: y os-horizon-install: y os-swift-install: n os-ceilometer-install: y os-heat-install: n os-client-install: y ntp-servers: nagios-install: n exclude-servers: mysql-host: 192.0.43.10 mysql-pw: ******** qpid-host: 192.0.43.10 qpid-enable-ssl: n keystone-host: 192.0.43.10 keystone-admin-passwd: ******** keystone-demo-passwd: ******** glance-host: 192.0.43.10 cinder-host: 192.0.43.10 cinder-backend: lvm cinder-volumes-create: y cinder-volumes-size: 20G novaapi-host: 192.0.43.10 novacert-host: 192.0.43.10 novavncproxy-hosts: 192.0.43.10 novacompute-hosts: 192.0.43.10 novaconductor-host: 192.0.43.10 nova-db-passwd: ******** nova-ks-passwd: ******** novasched-host: 192.0.43.10 novasched-cpu-allocation-ratio:16.0 novasched-ram-allocation-ratio:1.5 novacompute-privif: eth1 novanetwork-host: 192.0.43.10 novanetwork-pubif: eth0 novanetwork-privif: eth1 novanetwork-fixed-range: 192.168.32.0/22 novanetwork-floating-range: 10.3.4.0/22 novasched-host: 192.0.43.10 novasched-cpu-allocation-ratio:16.0 novasched-ram-allocation-ratio:1.5 neutron-server-host: 192.0.43.10 neutron-use-namespaces: y neutron-l3-hosts: 192.0.43.10 neutron-l3-ext-bridge: br-ex neutron-dhcp-hosts: 192.0.43.10 neutron-l2-plugin: openvswitch neutron-metadata-hosts: 192.0.43.10 neutron-ovs-tenant-network-type:local neutron-ovs-vlan-ranges: neutron-ovs-bridge-mappings: physnet1:1000:2000 osclient-host: 192.0.43.10 os-horizon-host: 192.0.43.10 os-horizon-ssl: n provision-demo: n provision-demo-floatrange: 192.168.32.0/22 provision-tempest: n provision-all-in-one-ovs-bridge:n os-heat-cloudwatch-install: n os-heat-cfn-install: n ceilometer-host: 192.0.43.10 use-epel: n os-swift-proxy: 192.0.43.10 os-swift-storage: 192.0.43.10 os-swift-storage-zones: 1 os-swift-storage-replicas: 1 os-swift-storage-fstype: ext4 additional-repo: rh-username: [email protected] rh-password: ******** rhn-satellite-server: Proceed with the configuration listed above? (yes|no): yesImportantAt this stage, if you need to change any of the parameter values there are two ways to do so.
    • Choose no, the installation then starts from Step 1 prompting you to enter values from the beginning, but this time the default values displayed are the ones you had previously entered. You can now change the values of the parameters and complete the installation by choosing yeswhen prompted, after the screen of new parameters is displayed.
    • Choose yes, the installation begins and an answer file is created. But this could result in error if there is an issue with the parameters. You can then modify the parameters in the answer file (packstack-answers-xxxx.txt) and re-run with the following command.# packstack --answer-file=packstack-answers-xxxx.txt
  25. At this point PackStack will commence deployment. Note that when PackStack is setting up SSH keys it will prompt you to enter the root password to connect to machines that are not already configured to use key authentication.Depending on the options you chose, the following screen’s content will vary.Installing: Clean Up… [ DONE ] Setting up ssh keys… [ DONE ] Discovering hosts’ details… [ DONE ] Disabling NetworkManager… [ DONE ] Adding pre install manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding MySQL manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding QPID manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Keystone manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Glance Keystone manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Glance manifest entries… [ DONE ] Installing dependencies for Cinder… [ DONE ] Adding Cinder Keystone manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Cinder manifest entries… [ DONE ] Checking if the Cinder server has a cinder-volumes vg… [ DONE ] Creating Cinder manifest… [ DONE ] Adding Nova API manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Nova Keystone manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Nova Cert manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Nova Conductor manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Nova Compute manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Nova Network manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Nova Scheduler manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Nova VNC Proxy manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Nova Common manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Openstack Network-related Nova manifest entries…[ DONE ] Adding Neutron API manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Neutron Keystone manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Neutron L3 manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Neutron L2 Agent manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Neutron DHCP Agent manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Neutron Metadata Agent manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding OpenStack Client manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Horizon manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Ceilometer manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding Ceilometer Keystone manifest entries… [ DONE ] Adding post install manifest entries… [ DONE ] Preparing Servers… [ DONE ] Adding post install manifest enries… [ DONE ] Installing Dependencies… [ DONE ] Copying Puppet modules and manifests… [ DONE ] Applying Puppet manifests…
  26. Applying the Puppet manifests to all machines involved in the deployment takes a significant amount of time. PackStack provides continuous updates indicating which manifests are being deployed as it progresses through the deployment process. Once the process completes a confirmation message similar to the one shown below will be displayed.Depending on the options you chose, the following screen’s content will vary. **** Installation completed successfully ****** (Please allow Installer a few moments to start up…..) Additional information: * A new answerfile was created in: /root/packstack-answers-20130613-133303.txt * Time synchronization installation was skipped. Please note that unsynchronized time on server instances might be problem for some OpenStack components. * To use the command line tools you need to source the file /root/keystonerc_admin created on 192.0.43.10 * To use the console, browse to http://192.0.43.10/dashboard * To use Nagios, browse to http://192.0.43.10/nagios username : nagiosadmin, password: abcdefgh12345678 * Kernel package with netns support has been installed on host 192.0.43.10. Because of the kernel update host mentioned above requires reboot. * The installation log file is available at: /var/tmp/packstack/20130613-133302-5UY8KB/openstack-setup.log You have mail in /var/spool/mail/root
  27. Reboot all the nodes in the environment to ensure that the kernel change takes effect.PackStack deploys a new kernel with network namespaces enabled for all the nodes. You must reboot the environment to ensure that the change takes effect.# reboot

You have successfully deployed OpenStack using PackStack.

The configuration details that you provided are also recorded in an answer file that can be used to recreate the deployment in future. The answer file is stored in the /root directory, and is given a file name containing the date and time, for example /root/packstack-answers-20140214-133303.txt.
