StarlingX/Installation Guide Virtual Environment/Duplex

Bare Metal
Required Servers:


 * Combined Servers (Controller + Compute): 2

Hardware Requirements
The recommended minimum requirements for the physical servers where StarlingX Duplex will be deployed, include:


 * ‘Minimum’ Processor:
 * Dual-CPU Intel® Xeon® E5 26xx Family (SandyBridge) 8 cores/socket
 * Memory: 64 GB
 * BIOS:
 * Hyper-Threading Tech: Enabled
 * Virtualization Technology: Enabled
 * VT for Directed I/O: Enabled
 * CPU Power and Performance Policy: Performance
 * CPU C State Control: Disabled
 * Plug & Play BMC Detection: Disabled
 * Primary Disk:
 * 500 GB SDD or NVMe
 * Additional Disks:
 * 1 or more 500 GB disks (min. 10K RPM)
 * Network Ports
 * Management: 10GE
 * OAM: 10GE
 * Data: n x 10GE

Virtual Environment
Run the libvirt qemu setup scripts. Setting up virtualized OAM and Management networks: $ bash setup_network.sh

Building xmls for definition of virtual servers: $ bash setup_allinone.sh -i

Accessing Virtual Server Consoles
The xml for virtual servers in stx-tools repo, deployment/libvirt, provides both graphical and text consoles.

Access the graphical console in virt-manager by right-click on the domain (the server) and selecting "Open".

Access the textual console with the command "virsh console $DOMAIN", where DOMAIN is the name of the server shown in virsh.

When booting the controller-0 for the first time, both the serial and graphical consoles will present the initial configuration menu for the cluster. One can select serial or graphical console for controller-0. For the other nodes however only serial is used, regardless of which option is selected.

Open the graphic console on all servers before powering them on to observe the boot device selection and PXI boot progress. Run "virsh console $DOMAIN" command promptly after power on to see the initial boot sequence which follows the boot device selection. One has a few seconds to do this.

Controller-0 Host Installation
Installing controller-0 involves initializing a host with software and then applying a bootstrap configuration from the command line. The configured bootstrapped host becomes Controller-0. Procedure:


 * 1) Power on the server that will be controller-0 with the StarlingX ISO on a USB in a bootable USB slot.
 * 2) Configure the controller using the config_controller script.

Initializing Controller-0
This section describes how to initialize StarlingX in host Controller-0. Except where noted, all the commands must be executed from a console of the host.

Power on the host to be configured as Controller-0, with the StarlingX ISO on a USB in a bootable USB slot. Wait for the console to show the StarlingX ISO booting options: Monitor the initialization. When it is complete, a reboot is initiated on the Controller-0 host, briefly displays a GNU GRUB screen, and then boots automatically into the StarlingX image. Log into Controller-0 as user wrsroot, with password wrsroot. The first time you log in as wrsroot, you are required to change your password. Enter the current password (wrsroot): Changing password for wrsroot. (current) UNIX Password:
 * All-in-one Controller Configuration
 * When the installer is loaded and the installer welcome screen appears in the Controller-0 host, select the type of installation "All-in-one Controller Configuration".
 * Graphical Console
 * Select the "Graphical Console" as the console to use during installation.
 * Standard Security Boot Profile
 * Select "Standard Security Boot Profile" as the Security Profile.

Enter a new password for the wrsroot account: New password:

Enter the new password again to confirm it: Retype new password:

Controller-0 is initialized with StarlingX, and is ready for configuration.

Configuring Controller-0
This section describes how to perform the Controller-0 configuration interactively just to bootstrap system with minimum critical data. Except where noted, all the commands must be executed from the console of the active controller (here assumed to be controller-0).

When run interactively, the config_controller script presents a series of prompts for initial configuration of StarlingX: The script is used to configure the first controller in the StarlingX cluster as controller-0. The prompts are grouped by configuration area. To start the script interactively, use the following command with no parameters:
 * For the Virtual Environment, you can accept all the default values immediately after ‘system date and time’.
 * For a Physical Deployment, answer the bootstrap configuration questions with answers applicable to your particular physical setup.

controller-0:~$ sudo config_controller System Configuration

=
=== Enter ! at any prompt to abort... ...

Select [y] for System Date and Time:

System date and time: -

Is the current date and time correct? [y/N]: y

Accept all the default values immediately after ‘system date and time’, for System mode choose "duplex":

... System mode. Available options are:

1) duplex-direct: two node-redundant configuration. Management and infrastructure networks are directly connected to peer ports 2) duplex - two node redundant configuration 3) simplex - single node non-redundant configuration System mode [duplex-direct]: 2 ... Applying configuration (this will take several minutes):

01/08: Creating bootstrap configuration ... DONE 02/08: Applying bootstrap manifest ... DONE 03/08: Persisting local configuration ... DONE 04/08: Populating initial system inventory ... DONE 05:08: Creating system configuration ... DONE 06:08: Applying controller manifest ... DONE 07:08: Finalize controller configuration ... DONE 08:08: Waiting for service activation ... DONE

Configuration was applied

Please complete any out of service commissioning steps with system commands and unlock controller to proceed.

After config_controller bootstrap configuration, REST API, CLI and Horizon interfaces are enabled on the controller-0 OAM IP Address. The remaining installation instructions will use the CLI.

Controller-0 Host Provision
On Controller-0, acquire Keystone administrative privileges:

controller-0:~$ source /etc/nova/openrc

Configuring Provider Networks at Installation
Set up one provider network of the vlan type, named providernet-a:

[wrsroot@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ neutron providernet-create providernet-a --type=vlan [wrsroot@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ neutron providernet-range-create --name providernet-a-range1 --range 100-400 providernet-a

Unlocking Controller-0
You must unlock controller-0 so that you can use it to install Controller-1. Use the system host-unlock command:

[wrsroot@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ system host-unlock controller-0

The host is rebooted. During the reboot, the command line is unavailable, and any ssh connections are dropped. To monitor the progress of the reboot, use the controller-0 console.

Verifying the Controller-0 Configuration
On Controller-0, acquire Keystone administrative privileges:

controller-0:~$ source /etc/nova/openrc

Verify that the controller-0 services are running:

[wrsroot@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ system service-list +-+---+--++ +-+---+--++ ... ... +-+---+--++
 * id | service_name                  | hostname     | state          |
 * 1  | oam-ip                        | controller-0 | enabled-active |
 * 2  | management-ip                 | controller-0 | enabled-active |

Verify that controller-0 has controller and compute subfunctions

[wrsroot@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ system host-show 1 | grep subfunctions
 * subfunctions       | controller,compute                         |

Verify that controller-0 is unlocked, enabled, and available:

[wrsroot@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ system host-list ++--+-++-+--+ ++--+-++-+--+ ++--+-++-+--+
 * id | hostname    | personality | administrative | operational | availability |
 * 1 | controller-0 | controller  | unlocked       | enabled     | available    |

Controller-1 Host Installation
After initializing and configuring controller-0, you can add and configure a backup controller controller-1.

Bare Metal
Power on Controller-1 node

Virtual Environment
Start Controller-1 in the workstation:

$ sudo virsh start controller-1

In Controller-1 console you will see:

Waiting for this node to be configured.

Please configure the personality for this node from the controller node in order to proceed.

Updating Controller-1 Host Host Name and Personality
On Controller-0, acquire Keystone administrative privileges:

controller-0:~$ source /etc/nova/openrc

Wait for Controller-0 to discover new host, list the host until new UNKNOWN host shows up in table:

[wrsroot@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ system host-list ++--+-++-+--+ ++--+-++-+--+ ++--+-++-+--+
 * id | hostname    | personality | administrative | operational | availability |
 * 1 | controller-0 | controller  | unlocked       | enabled     | available    |
 * 2 | None         | None        | locked         | disabled    | offline      |

Use the system host-update to update Contoller-1 host personality attribute:

[wrsroot@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ system host-update 2 personality=controller hostname=controller-1 +-+--+ +-+--+ +-+--+

Monitoring Controller-1 Host
On Controller-0, you can monitor the installation progress by running the system host-show command for the host periodically. Progress is shown in the install_state field.

[wrsroot@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ system host-show controller-1 | grep install
 * install_output     | text                                 |
 * install_state      | booting                              |
 * install_state_info | None                                 |

Wait while the Controller-1 is configured and rebooted. Up to 20 minutes may be required for a reboot, depending on hardware. When the reboot is complete, the Controller-1 is reported as Locked, Disabled, and Online.

Listing Controller-1 Host
Once Controller-1 has been installed, configured and rebooted, on Controller-0 list the hosts:

[wrsroot@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ system host-list ++--+-++-+--+ ++--+-++-+--+ ++--+-++-+--+
 * id | hostname    | personality | administrative | operational | availability |
 * 1 | controller-0 | controller  | unlocked       | enabled     | available    |
 * 2 | controller-1 | controller  | locked         | disabled    | online      |

Controller-1 Provisioning
On Controller-0, list hosts

[wrsroot@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ system host-list ++--+-++-+--+ ++--+-++-+--+ ... ++--+-++-+--+
 * id | hostname    | personality | administrative | operational | availability |

Unlocking Controller-1
Unlock Controller-1

[wrsroot@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ system host-unlock controller-1

Wait while the Controller-1 is rebooted. Up to 10 minutes may be required for a reboot, depending on hardware.

REMARK: Controller-1 will remain in 'degraded' state until data-syncing is complete. The duration is dependant on the virtualization host's configuration - i.e., the number and configuration of physical disks used to host the nodes' virtual disks. Also, the management network is expected to have link capacity of 10000 (1000 is not supported due to excessive data-sync time). Use 'fm alarm-list' to confirm status.

System Alarm List
When all nodes are Unlocked, Enabled and Available: check 'fm alarm-list' for issues. Your StarlingX deployment is now up and running with 2x HA Controllers with Cinder Storage and all OpenStack services up and running. You can now proceed with standard OpenStack APIs, CLIs and/or Horizon to load Glance Images, configure Nova Flavors, configure Neutron networks and launch Nova Virtual Machines.
