It covers its usage, limitations, dependencies +and required system resources. + +============ +Introduction +============ + +This document provides guidelines on how to install and +configure the Colorado release of OPNFV when using Fuel as a +deployment tool, with an AArch64 (only) target node pool, +including required software and hardware configurations. + +Although the available installation options give a high degree of +freedom in how the system is set-up, including architecture, services +and features, etc., said permutations may not provide an OPNFV +compliant reference architecture. This instruction provides a +step-by-step guide that results in an OPNFV Colorado compliant +deployment. + +The audience of this document is assumed to have good knowledge in +networking and Unix/Linux administration. + +======= +Preface +======= + +Before starting the installation of the AArch64 Colorado 1.0 release +of OPNFV, using Fuel as a deployment tool, some planning must be +done. + +Retrieving the ISO image +======================== + +First of all, the Fuel deployment ISO image needs to be retrieved, the +ArmbandFuel .iso image of the AArch64 Colorado release can be found +at *Reference: 2* + +Building the ISO image +====================== + +Alternatively, you may build the Armband Fuel .iso from source by cloning +the opnfv/armband git repository. To retrieve the repository for the AArch64 +Colorado 1.0 release use the following command: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ git clone https://gerrit.opnfv.org/gerrit/armband + +Check-out the Colorado release tag to set the HEAD to the +baseline required to replicate the Colorado release: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ git checkout colorado.1.0 + +Go to the armband directory and build the .iso: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ cd armband; make all + +For more information on how to build, please see *Reference: 14* + +Other preparations +================== + +Next, familiarize yourself with Fuel by reading the following documents: + +- Fuel Installation Guide, please see *Reference: 8* + +- Fuel QuickStart, please see *Reference: 9* + +- Fuel Developer Guide, please see *Reference: 10* + +- Fuel Plugin Developers Guide, please see *Reference: 11* + +Prior to installation, a number of deployment specific parameters must be collected, those are: + +#. Provider sub-net and gateway information + +#. Provider VLAN information + +#. Provider DNS addresses + +#. Provider NTP addresses + +#. Network overlay you plan to deploy (VLAN, VXLAN, FLAT) + +#. How many nodes and what roles you want to deploy (Controllers, Storage, Computes) + +#. Monitoring options you want to deploy (Ceilometer, Syslog, etc.). + +#. Other options not covered in the document are available in the links above + + +This information will be needed for the configuration procedures +provided in this document. + +===================== +Hardware requirements +===================== + +The following minimum hardware requirements must be met for the +installation of AArch64 Colorado 1.0 using Fuel: + ++--------------------+------------------------------------------------------+ +| **HW Aspect** | **Requirement** | +| | | ++====================+======================================================+ +| **AArch64 nodes** | Minimum 5 (3 for non redundant deployment): | +| | | +| | - 1 Fuel deployment master (may be virtualized) | +| | | +| | - 3(1) Controllers (1 colocated mongo/ceilometer | +| | role, 2 Ceph-OSD roles) | +| | | +| | - 1 Compute (1 co-located Ceph-OSD role) | +| | | ++--------------------+------------------------------------------------------+ +| **CPU** | Minimum 1 socket AArch64 (ARMv8) with Virtualization | +| | support | ++--------------------+------------------------------------------------------+ +| **RAM** | Minimum 16GB/server (Depending on VNF work load) | +| | | ++--------------------+------------------------------------------------------+ +| **Disk** | Minimum 256GB 10kRPM spinning disks | +| | | ++--------------------+------------------------------------------------------+ +| **Firmware** | UEFI compatible (e.g. EDK2) with PXE support | ++--------------------+------------------------------------------------------+ +| **Networks** | 4 Tagged VLANs (PUBLIC, MGMT, STORAGE, PRIVATE) | +| | | +| | 1 Un-Tagged VLAN for PXE Boot - ADMIN Network | +| | | +| | Note: These can be allocated to a single NIC - | +| | or spread out over multiple NICs as your hardware | +| | supports. | ++--------------------+------------------------------------------------------+ +| **1 x86_64 node** | - 1 Fuel deployment master, x86 (may be virtualized) | ++--------------------+------------------------------------------------------+ + +=============================== +Help with Hardware Requirements +=============================== + +Calculate hardware requirements: + +When choosing the hardware on which you will deploy your OpenStack +environment, you should think about: + +- CPU -- Consider the number of virtual machines that you plan to deploy in your cloud environment and the CPU per virtual machine. + +- Memory -- Depends on the amount of RAM assigned per virtual machine and the controller node. + +- Storage -- Depends on the local drive space per virtual machine, remote volumes that can be attached to a virtual machine, and object storage. + +- Networking -- Depends on the Choose Network Topology, the network bandwidth per virtual machine, and network storage. + +================================================ +Top of the rack (TOR) Configuration requirements +================================================ + +The switching infrastructure provides connectivity for the OPNFV +infrastructure operations, tenant networks (East/West) and provider +connectivity (North/South); it also provides needed connectivity for +the Storage Area Network (SAN). +To avoid traffic congestion, it is strongly suggested that three +physically separated networks are used, that is: 1 physical network +for administration and control, one physical network for tenant private +and public networks, and one physical network for SAN. +The switching connectivity can (but does not need to) be fully redundant, +in such case it comprises a redundant 10GE switch pair for each of the +three physically separated networks. + +The physical TOR switches are **not** automatically configured from +the Fuel OPNFV reference platform. All the networks involved in the OPNFV +infrastructure as well as the provider networks and the private tenant +VLANs needs to be manually configured. + +Manual configuration of the Colorado hardware platform should +be carried out according to the OPNFV Pharos specification: +<https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/pharos/Pharos+Specification> + +========================================== +OPNFV Software installation and deployment +========================================== + +This section describes the installation of the OPNFV installation +server (Fuel master) as well as the deployment of the full OPNFV +reference platform stack across a server cluster. + +Install Fuel master +=================== + +#. Mount the Colorado Armband Fuel ISO file/media as a boot device to the jump host server. + +#. Reboot the jump host to establish the Fuel server. + + - The system now boots from the ISO image. + + - Select "Fuel Install (Static IP)" (See figure below) + + - Press [Enter]. + + .. figure:: img/grub-1.png + +#. Wait until the Fuel setup screen is shown (Note: This can take up to 30 minutes). + +#. In the "Fuel User" section - Confirm/change the default password (See figure below) + + - Enter "admin" in the Fuel password input + + - Enter "admin" in the Confirm password input + + - Select "Check" and press [Enter] + + .. figure:: img/fuelmenu1.png + +#. In the "Network Setup" section - Configure DHCP/Static IP information for your FUEL node - For example, ETH0 is 10.20.0.2/24 for FUEL booting and ETH1 is DHCP in your corporate/lab network (see figure below). + +- **NOTE**: ArmbandFuel@OPNFV requires internet connectivity during bootstrap + image building, due to missing arm64 (AArch64) packages in the partial + local Ubuntu mirror (consequence of ports.ubuntu.com mirror architecture). + + - Configuration of ETH1 interface for connectivity into your corporate/lab + network is mandatory, as internet connection is required during deployment. + + .. figure:: img/fuelmenu2.png + + .. figure:: img/fuelmenu2a.png + +#. In the "PXE Setup" section (see figure below) - Change the following fields to appropriate values (example below): + + - DHCP Pool Start 10.20.0.3 + + - DHCP Pool End 10.20.0.254 + + - DHCP Pool Gateway 10.20.0.2 (IP address of Fuel node) + + .. figure:: img/fuelmenu3.png + +#. In the "DNS & Hostname" section (see figure below) - Change the following fields to appropriate values: + + - Hostname + + - Domain + + - Search Domain + + - External DNS + + - Hostname to test DNS + + - Select <Check> and press [Enter] + + .. figure:: img/fuelmenu4.png + + +#. **DO NOT CHANGE** anything in "Bootstrap Image" section (see figure below). + + In ArmbandFuel@OPNFV, this data is **NOT** actually used for bootstrap + image building. Any change here will replace the configuration from + the OPNFV bootstrap build scripts and will lead to a failed bootstrap + image build. + + **NOTE:** Cannot be used in tandem with local repository support. + + .. figure:: img/fuelmenu5.png + +#. In the "Time Sync" section (see figure below) - Change the following fields to appropriate values: + + - NTP Server 1 <Customer NTP server 1> + + - NTP Server 2 <Customer NTP server 2> + + - NTP Server 3 <Customer NTP server 3> + + .. figure:: img/fuelmenu6.png + +#. Start the installation. + + - Press <F8> + + - The installation will now start, wait until the login screen is shown. + +Boot the Node Servers +===================== + +After the Fuel Master node has rebooted from the above steps and is at +the login prompt, you should boot the Node Servers (Your +Compute/Control/Storage blades, nested or real) with a PXE booting +scheme so that the FUEL Master can pick them up for control. + +**NOTE**: AArch64 target nodes are expected to support PXE booting an +EFI binary, i.e. an EFI-stubbed GRUB2 bootloader. + +**NOTE**: UEFI (EDK2) firmware is **highly** recommended, becoming +the **de facto** standard for ARMv8 nodes. + +#. Enable PXE booting + + - For every controller and compute server: enable PXE Booting as the first boot device in the UEFI (EDK2) boot order menu, and hard disk as the second boot device in the same menu. + +#.

The Fuel server delivers a local repo +that can be used for installation / deployment of openstack. + +#. In the Fuel UI of your Environment, click the Settings Tab and select General from the left pane. + + - Replace the URI values for the "Name" values outlined below: + + - "ubuntu" URI="deb http://<ip-of-fuel-server>:8080/mirrors/ubuntu/ trusty main" + + - "ubuntu-security" URI="deb http://<ip-of-fuel-server>:8080/mirrors/ubuntu/ trusty-security main" + + - "ubuntu-updates" URI="deb http://<ip-of-fuel-server>:8080/mirrors/ubuntu/ trusty-updates main" + + - "mos" URI="deb http://<ip-of-fuel-server>::8080/mitaka-9.0/ubuntu/x86_64 mos9.0 main restricted" + + - "Auxiliary" URI="deb http://<ip-of-fuel-server>:8080/mitaka-9.0/ubuntu/auxiliary auxiliary main restricted" + + - Click <Save Settings> at the bottom to Save your changes + +Target specific configuration +============================= + +#. [AArch64 specific] Configure MySQL WSREP SST provider + + **NOTE**: This option is only available for ArmbandFuel@OPNFV, since it + currently only affects AArch64 targets (see *Reference 15*). + + When using some AArch64 platforms as controller nodes, WSREP SST + synchronisation using default backend provider (xtrabackup-v2) might fail, + so a mechanism that allows selecting a different WSREP SST provider + has been introduced. + + In the FUEL UI of your Environment, click the <Settings> tab, click + <OpenStack Services> on the left side pane (see figure below), then + select one of the following options: + + - xtrabackup-v2 (default provider, AArch64 stability issues); + + - rsync (AArch64 validated, better or comparable speed to xtrabackup, + takes the donor node offline during state transfer); + + - mysqldump (untested); + + .. figure:: img/fuelwsrepsst.png + +#. Set up targets for provisioning with non-default "Offloading Modes" + + Some target nodes may require additional configuration after they are + PXE booted (bootstrapped); the most frequent changes are in defaults + for ethernet devices' "Offloading Modes" settings (e.g. some targets' + ethernet drivers may strip VLAN traffic by default). + + If your target ethernet drivers have wrong "Offloading Modes" defaults, + in "Configure interfaces" page (described above), expand affected + interface's "Offloading Modes" and [un]check the relevant settings + (see figure below): + + .. figure:: img/offloadingmodes.png + +#.
