Blazar/Installation without Devstack

Installation guide

This page includes instructions for Climate installation.

Download all Climate related repos:

   git clone https://github.com/stackforge/climate.git
   git clone https://github.com/stackforge/climate-nova.git
   git clone https://github.com/stackforge/python-climateclient.git

Install all these projects to your working environment via:

   python setup.py install

or

   python setup.py develop

Next you need to configure Climate and Nova. Define /etc/climate/climate.conf file using the following example:

[DEFAULT]

host=<climate_host>

os_auth_host=<auth_host>
os_auth_port=<auth_port>
os_auth_protocol=<http, for example>
os_admin_username=<username>
os_admin_password=<password>
os_admin_tenant_name=<tenant_name>

[manager]
plugins=basic.vm.plugin,physical.host.plugin

[virtual:instance]
on_start=on_start
on_end = create_image, delete

[physical:host]
on_start=on_start
on_end = on_end
climate_username=<username>
climate_password=<password>
climate_tenant_name=<tenant_name>

Here os_admin_* flags refer to Climate service user. climate_* ones - to admin user created specially to work with physical reservations. If you have no these users, create them via Keystone:

keystone user-create --name=climate --pass=<service_password> --tenant_id=<service_tenant_id> --email=climate@example.com
keystone user-role-add --tenant-id <service_tenant_id> --user-id <climate_user> --role-id <admin_role>

And the same procedure for special admin user to work with physical reservations.

Next you need to configure Nova. If you want to use virtual reservations, please add the following lines to nova.conf file:

osapi_compute_extension = nova.api.openstack.compute.contrib.standard_extensions
osapi_compute_extension = climatenova.api.extensions.default_reservation.Default_reservation
osapi_compute_extension = climatenova.api.extensions.reservation.Reservation

If you want to use physical reservations add these ones:

scheduler_available_filters = nova.scheduler.filters.all_filters
scheduler_available_filters = climatenova.scheduler.filters.climate_filter.ClimateFilter
scheduler_default_filters=RetryFilter,AvailabilityZoneFilter,RamFilter,ComputeFilter,ComputeCapabilitiesFilter,ImagePropertiesFilter,ClimateFilter

Restart nova-api to use new configuration file.

Climate uses Keystone trusts to commit actions on behalf of user created lease. That’s why we need to create identityv3 service with appropriate endpoints:

keystone service-create --name keystonev3 --type identytiv3 --description "Keystone Identity Service v3"
keystone endpoint-create --region <region> --service keystonev3 --publicurl "<auth_protocol>://<auth_host>:5000/v3" --adminurl "<auth_protocol>://<auth_host>:35357/v3" --internalurl "<auth_protocol>://<auth_host>:5000/v3"

And, finally, we need to create reservation service in Keystone with its endpoints:

keystone service-create --name climate --type reservation --description “OpenStack reservation service.”
keystone endpoint-create --region <region> --service climate --publicurl "<auth_protocol>://<climate_host>:1234/v1" --adminurl "<auth_protocol>://<climate_host>:1234/v1"

To start Climate services use:

climate-api --config-file /etc/climate/climate.conf
climate-manager --config-file /etc/climate/climate.conf

Now you can use python-climateclient to communicate with Climate.
