It is important to understand the basics -of a Triple-O deployment to help make decisions that will assist in -successfully deploying OPNFV. - -Triple-O stands for OpenStack On OpenStack. This means that OpenStack -will be used to install OpenStack. The target OPNFV deployment is an -OpenStack cloud with NFV features built-in that will be deployed by a -smaller all-in-one deployment of OpenStack. In this deployment -methodology there are two OpenStack installations. They are referred -to as the undercloud and the overcloud. The undercloud is used to -deploy the overcloud. - -The undercloud is the all-in-one installation of OpenStack that includes -baremetal provisioning capability. The undercloud will be deployed as a -virtual machine on a jumphost. This VM is pre-built and distributed as part -of the Apex RPM. - -The overcloud is OPNFV. Configuration will be passed into undercloud and -the undercloud will use OpenStack's orchestration component, named Heat, to -execute a deployment that will provision the target OPNFV nodes. - -Apex High Availability Architecture -=================================== - -Undercloud ----------- - -The undercloud is not Highly Available. End users do not depend on the -underloud. It is only for management purposes. - -Overcloud ---------- - -Apex will deploy three control nodes in an HA deployment. Each of these nodes -will run the following services: - -- Stateless OpenStack services -- MariaDB / Galera -- RabbitMQ -- OpenDaylight -- HA Proxy -- Pacemaker & VIPs -- Ceph Monitors and OSDs - -Stateless OpenStack services - All running statesless OpenStack services are load balanced by HA Proxy. - Pacemaker monitors the services and ensures that they are running. - -Stateful OpenStack services - All running stateful OpenStack services are load balanced by HA Proxy. - They are monitored by pacemaker in an active/passive failover configuration. - -MariaDB / Galera - The MariaDB database is replicated across the control nodes using Galera. - Pacemaker is responsible for a proper start up of the Galera cluster. HA - Proxy provides and active/passive failover methodology to connections to the - database. - -RabbitMQ - The message bus is managed by Pacemaker to ensure proper start up and - establishment of clustering across cluster members. - -OpenDaylight - OpenDaylight is currently installed on all three control nodes but only - started on the first control node. OpenDaylight's HA capabilities are not yet - mature enough to be enabled. - -HA Proxy - HA Proxy is monitored by Pacemaker to ensure it is running across all nodes - and available to balance connections. - -Pacemaker & VIPs - Pacemaker has relationships and restraints setup to ensure proper service - start up order and Virtual IPs associated with specific services are running - on the proper host. - -Ceph Monitors & OSDs - The Ceph monitors run on each of the control nodes. Each control node also - has a Ceph OSD running on it. By default the OSDs use an autogenerated - virtual disk as their target device. A non-autogenerated device can be - specified in the deploy file. - -VM Migration is configured and VMs can be evacuated as needed or as invoked -by tools such as heat as part of a monitored stack deployment in the overcloud. - - -OPNFV Scenario Architecture -=========================== - -OPNFV distinguishes different types of SDN controllers, deployment options, and -features into "scenarios". These scenarios are universal across all OPNFV -installers, although some may or may not be supported by each installer. - -The standard naming convention for a scenario is: -<VIM platform>-<SDN type>-<feature>-<ha/noha> - -The only supported VIM type is "OS" (OpenStack), while SDN types can be any -supported SDN controller. "feature" includes things like ovs_dpdk, sfc, etc. -"ha" or "noha" determines if the deployment will be highly available. If "ha" -is used at least 3 control nodes are required. - -OPNFV Scenarios in Apex -======================= - -Apex provides pre-built scenario files in /etc/opnfv-apex which a user can -select from to deploy the desired scenario. Simply pass the desired file to -the installer as a (-d) deploy setting. Read further in the Apex documentation -to learn more about invoking the deploy command. Below is quick reference -matrix for OPNFV scenarios supported in Apex. Please refer to the respective -OPNFV Docs documentation for each scenario in order to see a full scenario -description. Also, please refer to release-notes for information about known -issues per scenario. The following scenarios correspond to a supported -<Scenario>.yaml deploy settings file: - -+-------------------------+------------+-----------------+ -| **Scenario** | **Owner** | **Supported** | -+-------------------------+------------+-----------------+ -| os-nosdn-nofeature-ha | Apex | Yes | -+-------------------------+------------+-----------------+ -| os-nosdn-nofeature-noha | Apex | Yes | -+-------------------------+------------+-----------------+ -| os-nosdn-ovs-noha | OVS for NFV| Yes | -+-------------------------+------------+-----------------+ -| os-nosdn-fdio-noha | FDS | Yes | -+-------------------------+------------+-----------------+ -| os-odl_l2-nofeature-ha | Apex | Yes | -+-------------------------+------------+-----------------+ -| os-odl_l3-nofeature-ha | Apex | Yes | -+-------------------------+------------+-----------------+ -| os-odl_l2-sfc-noha | SFC | Yes | -+-------------------------+------------+-----------------+ -| os-odl-bgpvpn-ha | SDNVPN | No | -+-------------------------+------------+-----------------+ -| os-odl_l2-fdio-noha | FDS | Yes | -+-------------------------+------------+-----------------+ -| os-onos-nofeature-ha | ONOSFW | Yes | -+-------------------------+------------+-----------------+ -| os-onos-sfc-ha | ONOSFW | Yes | -+-------------------------+------------+-----------------+ |
