Install guide for installing CF on top of openstack
|
Dimuthu Upeksha
Hi
I have been going through this [1] tutorial to install CF on top of Openstack. But I guess that some of the links (Manifest stub [2]) that it directs are outdated and I was unable to complete the deployment. Is there a updated document that I can easily install CF on top of Openstack? [1] https://docs.cloudfoundry.org/deploying/openstack/install_cf_openstack.html [2] https://docs.cloudfoundry.org/deploying/openstack/cf-stub-openstack.html Thanks Dimuthu |

Hi Dimuthu,
The document you're citing is community-owned and is being actively maintained. If you are having problems with that doc, I'd suggest opening an Issue for someone to notice and respond. The right place to report an issue against those docs are here: https://github.com/cloudfoundry/docs-deploying-cf/issues If you can, please cite which specific files (ie, install_cf_openstack.html) you're having trouble with, and what specific links aren't working.

Yes, it's currently very difficult to keep those docs up to date. The main difficulty comes in somehow enforcing that the dummy data in the example stubs and the real data in the stubs we use in our real deployments, stay somewhat similar in structure, while at the same time ensuring that the dummy data doesn't have more configuration than it needs to have to get up and working (whereas our real deployments have specialized data that a generic deployment shouldn't care about). In the short run I will try and improve some of the example stubs to be up-to-date and reflect a real working stub. Amit On Mon, Nov 9, 2015 at 10:31 AM, Marco Nicosia <mnicosia(a)pivotal.io> wrote:

Hi Marco/ Amith,
I tried with the stub file in [1] to create a deployment manifest and tried to deploy it using "bosh deploy" command. Then I get an error mentioning deployment name not found. I have reported the issue in [2]. However what I need is a working stub file template for current version of bosh/ CF. Also there are some bolgs [3] describing the deployment of CF in a different way than the way document describe. Document instructs to generate the deployment manifest from the stub while that blog directly gives the deployment manifest without a stub. What is the correct way? I have a confusion of what is the latest method.

hi
hope the following may help bosh director (a VM create via microbosh) just like puppet master or devops server, after created: $ bosh upload stemcell bosh-stemcell-3126-openstack-kvm-ubuntu-trusty-go_agent # upload image into openstack glance, and registered in bosh director, in deployment manifest, it will be used as whole cf nodes glance image # the image can be download at http://bosh.io/ $ bosh upload release cf-release-223.tgz # upload a about 2G cf release tarball into director, later transferring suitable packages into each cf nodes when deploying # the tarball can be download at http://bosh.io/releases/github.com/cloudfoundry/cf-release?version=223 $ bosh deployment your-cf-deloyment.yml # tell bosh where is your yaml file to deploy $ bosh deploy # do exactly deployment according previous yaml file best regards tangfx On Tue, Nov 10, 2015 at 2:33 PM, Dimuthu Upeksha <dimuthu(a)adroitlogic.com> wrote: Hi Marco/ Amith, |

Hi Tang
Many thanks for the steps. Where can I find a valid "your-cf-deloyment.yml" that will be working with cf-release-223? Thanks Dimuthu |

hi Dimuthu
Working for CF DevOps need more skills :) In my story, there has not existed an suitable manifest for OpenStack. every devops always do it by themselves. You could reference from following link: https://gist.github.com/frodenas Notice, the manifest may not be available for different CF version, please carefully review the notes of each version ( https://github.com/cloudfoundry/cf-release/releases) b/r tangfx On Tue, Nov 10, 2015 at 5:04 PM, Dimuthu Upeksha <dimuthu(a)adroitlogic.com> wrote: Hi Tang |

process. To unblock you, here is a stub that should work with the latest version of CF. You will of course have to replace IPs, credentials, keys, and certs appropriately. Let me know if you have questions about any of the values: https://gist.github.com/Amit-PivotalLabs/04dd9addca704f86b3b7 This is taken directly from the stub used in our CI environment where we deploy to OpenStack, with the credentials and other environment-specific information changed.

Hi Amit,
Many thanks for the help. I created the deployment manifest using your stub and when I deploy it using bosh deploy I get this https://gist.github.com/DImuthuUpe/53c3d6b972f3a8c90934 error. Bosh output : https://gist.github.com/DImuthuUpe/653d79a2f72843d2c5c6 What could be the reason for that? Thanks Dimuthu |

Hi Dimuthu,
How much do you care about encryption of the internal Consul traffic? You could modify the stub I recommended and disable Consul encryption. Otherwise, one reason it is failing may be due to incorrect values for the consul properties. You can read here for more on Consul security configuration options: https://docs.cloudfoundry.org/deploying/common/consul-security.html Best, Amit On Thu, Nov 12, 2015 at 10:01 PM, Dimuthu Upeksha <dimuthu(a)adroitlogic.com> wrote: Hi Amit, |

Hi Amith,
I disabled Consoul authentication as you have mentioned. But still the problem occurs. This is the deployment manifest I use https://gist.github.com/DImuthuUpe/9f1837d1e237bc48a5e0 Thanks Dimuthu |

hi
hope my own way cloud help you :) first, ssh into cf node that consul reside, and show detailed log in such directory $bosh ssh ... second, look at all job logs $cd /var/vcap/sys/log then check all consul logs $tail -100 consul...log I guess, consul don't work because it want to communicate with his server according job control script. Before I tried many ways to change consul working method but not succeed, and later: 1) copy consul binary from /var/vcap/packages/consul-agent/ 2) run a consul server in any available machine, like $ ./consul agent -server -bootstrap-expect 1 -data-dir /tmp/consul 3) In deploy manifest properties, keep consul not use ssl: properties: ... consul: require_ssl: false encrypt_keys: [] 4) In consul job (in my demo, consul packaged with haproxy job because it help to monitor load balance). override properties and configure consul client as: jobs: ... - name: haproxy templates: - name: haproxy - name: consul - name: metron_agent ... properties: ... consul: agent: mode: client services: {} servers: lan: [<previous consul server ip if in same subnet>] # wan: [<pervious consul server ip if not in LAN, I think>] best regards tangfx On Fri, Nov 13, 2015 at 4:11 PM, Dimuthu Upeksha <dimuthu(a)adroitlogic.com> wrote: Hi Amith, |

What version of cf-release are you using to upload to the director when you

"bosh upload release" ? What SHA of the cf-release repo are using when you use "generate_deployment_manifest" to generate the manifest using your stub? Can you ssh onto the consul_z1/0 VM, to sudo su -, and then see what "monit summary" says (so we can see which processes are failing). Then, if you go to /var/vcap/sys/log you get a directory of all the relevant process logs. You can look for errors there, if you don't know where to look, I can help you with that.
