devstack demo playbook

This section describes how to use the demo playbook in the ansible/ directory of this repository.

Requirements:

• You will need a node that functions as an Ansible executor. For example, you might need to execute the following on CentOS 7.x:

  sudo yum -y install centos-release-ansible26.noarch
  sudo yum -y install ansible python2-jmespath git vim
  

• A target node, with CentOS 7 installed, with a Netronome Agilio OVS compatible NIC.

Quickstart guide:

• Clone the repo into a temporary directory on the Ansible executor:

  git clone https://github.com/Netronome/agilio-ovs-openstack-plugin.git
  

• Change to the ansible directory and modify hosts.yaml and playbook.yaml with the correct settings:

  cd agilio-ovs-openstack-plugin
  vim hosts.yaml
  vim playbook.yaml
  

• Run the prepare-devstack.sh script:

  ./prepare-devstack.sh
  

• Shell into the host and reboot it:

  ssh [email protected]
  # Verify environment
  sudo reboot
  

• Shell into the host and run devstack:

  ssh [email protected]
  # Note, the playbook creates a ``stack`` user!
  cd devstack
  ./stack.sh
