Configuring for OpenStack

Overview

When deployed on OpenStack, {product-title} can be configured to access OpenStack infrastructure, including using OpenStack Cinder volumes as persistent storage for application data.

Permissions

Configuring OpenStack for {product-title} requires the following role:

member

For creating assets(instances, networking ports, floating ips, volumes, and so on.) you need the member role for the tenant.

Configuring a Security Group

When installing {product-title} on OpenStack, ensure that you set up the appropriate security groups. install_config/topics/configuring_a_security_group.adoc

Configuring OpenStack Variables

To set the required OpenStack variables, create a /etc/cloud.conf file with the following contents on all of your {product-title} hosts, both masters and nodes:

[Global]
auth-url = <OS_AUTH_URL>
username = <OS_USERNAME>
password = <password>
domain-id = <OS_USER_DOMAIN_ID>
tenant-id = <OS_TENANT_ID>
region = <OS_REGION_NAME>

[LoadBalancer]
subnet-id = <UUID of the load balancer subnet>
[BlockStorage]
bs-version=v2

Consult your OpenStack administrators for values of the OS_ variables, which are commonly used in OpenStack configuration.

Currently OpenStack Cinder V3 API is not supported. To resolve this issue or disable auto Cinder API version detection, you must force Cinder V2 API by specifying bs-version=v2.

Configuring {product-title} Masters for OpenStack

You can set an OpenStack configuration on your {product-title} master and node hosts in two different ways:

Configuring {product-title} for OpenStack with Ansible

During advanced installations, OpenStack can be configured using the following parameters, which are configurable in the inventory file:

  • openshift_cloudprovider_kind

  • openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_auth_url

  • openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_username

  • openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_password

  • openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_domain_id

  • openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_domain_name

  • openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_tenant_id

  • openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_tenant_name

  • openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_region

  • openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_lb_subnet_id

Example 1. Example OpenStack Configuration with Ansible
# Cloud Provider Configuration
#
# Note: You may make use of environment variables rather than store
# sensitive configuration within the ansible inventory.
# For example:
#openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_username="{{ lookup('env','USERNAME') }}"
#openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_password="{{ lookup('env','PASSWORD') }}"
#
# Openstack
#openshift_cloudprovider_kind=openstack
#openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_auth_url=http://openstack.example.com:35357/v2.0/
#openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_username=username
#openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_password=password
#openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_domain_id=domain_id
#openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_domain_name=domain_name
#openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_tenant_id=tenant_id
#openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_tenant_name=tenant_name
#openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_region=region
#openshift_cloudprovider_openstack_lb_subnet_id=subnet_id

Manually Configuring {product-title} Masters for OpenStack

Edit or create the master configuration file on all masters (/etc/origin/master/master-config.yaml by default) and update the contents of the apiServerArguments and controllerArguments sections:

kubernetesMasterConfig:
  ...
  apiServerArguments:
    cloud-provider:
      - "openstack"
    cloud-config:
      - "/etc/cloud.conf"
  controllerArguments:
    cloud-provider:
      - "openstack"
    cloud-config:
      - "/etc/cloud.conf"
Important

When triggering a containerized installation, only the directories of /etc/origin and /var/lib/origin are mounted to the master and node container. Therefore, cloud.conf should be in /etc/origin/ instead of /etc/.

Manually Configuring {product-title} Nodes for OpenStack

Edit or create the node configuration file on all nodes (/etc/origin/node/node-config.yaml by default) and update the contents of the kubeletArguments and nodeName sections:

nodeName:
  <instance_name> (1)

kubeletArguments:
  cloud-provider:
    - "openstack"
  cloud-config:
    - "/etc/cloud.conf"
  1. Name of the OpenStack instance where the node runs (i.e., name of the virtual machine)

Currently, the nodeName must match the instance name in Openstack in order for the cloud provider integration to work properly. The name must also be RFC1123 compliant.
