-DEA: Deployment Environment Adapter
------------------------------------
-
-This file has several sections, some of the sections are self describing:
-
-```
-title: Deployment Environment Adapter (DEA)
-version:
-comment: Config for LF POD1 - HA deployment with Ceph and Opendaylight
-wanted_release: Kilo on Ubuntu 14.04
-```
-
-## The Environment section
-
-environment:
- name: opnfv
- mode: ha # noha, no-ha?
- net_segment_type: tun # ?
-
-
-## The "Fuel" section
-
-```
-fuel:
- ADMIN_NETWORK: # Static Fuel admin network configuration
- cidr: 10.20.0.0/24 # this is the "fuelweb_admin" in the nodes
- dhcp_gateway: 10.20.0.2 # nodes us this as default gateway
- dhcp_pool_end: 10.20.0.254 # nodes get addresses from here
- dhcp_pool_start: 10.20.0.3 # This is the Fuel server IP address
- ipaddress: 10.20.0.2
- netmask: 255.255.0.0 # netmask for nodes (otherwise why is it
- # needed if CIDR above?
- DNS_DOMAIN: domain.tld #
- DNS_SEARCH: domain.tld #
- DNS_UPSTREAM: 8.8.8.8 # Fuel->Network Settings->Other->DNS Servers
- FUEL_ACCESS:
- password: admin
- user: admin
- HOSTNAME: opnfv
- NTP1: 0.pool.ntp.org # Fuel->Newtok Setting->Other->NTP server list
- NTP2: 1.pool.ntp.org
- NTP3: 2.pool.ntp.org
-```
-
-It would make more sense if NTP was a list:
-
-```
- NTP:
- - 0.pool.ntp.org
- - 1.pool.ntp.org
- - 2.pool.ntp.org
-```
-
-Now I don't know if NTP4 would be a valid key...
-
-## The "node" section
-
-Then there is the important "node" section:
-
-```
-node:
- - id: 1
- interfaces: <some section describing interfaces>
- transformations: <section describing what to do with the interfaces>
- role: [controller|compute|cinder|...]
- - id: 2
- interfaces: interfaces_1
- transformations: transformations_1
- role: ceph-osd,controller
- ...
- - id: n
- ...
-```
-
-Now, the "interfaces" section could be something line:
-
-```
-node:
- - id: 1
- interfaces: interfaces_1
- transformations: transformations_1
-```
-
-## Interfaces
-
-In this case we would have a "section" called intefaces_apm, that looks like:
-
-```
-interfaces_1:
- eth0:
- - none # I made this up, I don't know if "none" is valid
- eth1:
- - fuelweb_admin
- eth2:
- - public
- - storage # vlan 2010
- - management # vlan 2011
- - private # vlan 2012
-```
-
-This is self describing in a way. eth1 is used as the interface for the
-"fuel admin" network, while eth2 will be used for what Fuel calls "public",
-"storage", "management" and "private" networks. These match the networks in
-the "networks" tab in the Fuel dashboard.
-
-## Transformations
-
-For now we won't come into huge detail about the transformations, but they
-seem to contain a list of "commands" issued to ovs-vsctl (Open vSwitch).
-For example:
-
-```
-transformations_1:
- transformations:
- - ...
- - action: add-port
- bridge: br-mgmt
- name: eth1.300
- - ...
-```
-
-Basically the deploy script will issue the command:
-
-```
- ovs-vsctl add-port br-mgmt eth1.300
-```
-(or ...eth1 tag=300)
-
-## The "network" section:
-
-The networks listed in each of the devices of the "interfaces_1" section
-are defined in the "network" section. Inside the "network" section, there is
-another section called "networks", with a list of networks defined:
-
-```
-network:
- ...
- networks:
- - cidr: 192.168.0.0/24
- gateway: null
- ip_ranges:
- - - 192.168.0.1
- - 192.168.0.254
- meta:
- cidr: 192.168.0.0/24 # TBD: Can it be different from previos CIDR?
- # Is this the default value in the UI?
- configurable: true # TBD, UI?
- map_priority: 2 # TBD, UI?
- name: management
- notation: cidr # TBD, UI?
- render_addr_mask: internal # TBD, UI?
- render_type: cidr # TBD, UI stuff?
- use_gateway: false # Only for public net, or for
- vips: # TBD
- - haproxy
- - vrouter
- vlan_start: 101
- name: management
- vlan_start: 300 # must match transformations
- - cidr: ...
- ...
-```
-
-Let's take the "management" network as an example. Here we define the
-netmask and several parameters that will look familiar when looking at the
-"Networks" Fuel dashboard tab. The available keys:
-- name: the name of the network
-- cidr: the CIDR for this network
-- gateway: an IP address (only for public network?)
-- ip_ranges: a list with the IP ranges available to this network.
-- vlan_start: When using vlan tagging, the first vlan tag
-- meta: (explained below)
-
-The purpose of the "meta" key is less obvious here, and some of the data
-appears to be redundant. My guess is that it is part of Fuel's user
-interface. The CIDR here would be the default and "notation" is probably the
-way it is displayed in the form field:
-
-- cidr: again the same CIDR as above [is this redundant? error prone?]
-- configurable: boolean [?]
-- map_priority: int [?]
-- name: again the same name as above?
-- notation: cidr [any other available keys?]
-- use_gateway: boolean [apparently only "true "if an IP was given above]
-- vips: This seems to be a list of "namespaces" defined later in the
-- "network section".
-- vlan_start same as above...
-
-Now if we look back, in the "interfaces_1" section we had this:
-
-```
-interfaces_1:
- eth2:
- - management
-```
-
-This is clearly the network defined above. The same goes for "public",
-"storage" and "private".
-
-## The "network" section continued
-
-Apart from the definition of each of the networks and required by Fuel,
-the "network" section also has a "preamble" with the following parameters
-and corresponding setting in Fuel:
-
-```
-network:
- management_vip: 192.168.0.2 # TBD (see vips)
- management_vrouter_vip: 192.168.0.1 # TBD
- public_vip: 172.30.9.64 # TBD
- public_vrouter_vip: 172.30.9.65 # TBD
- networking_parameters: # Fuel->Networ->Settings
- base_mac: fa:16:3e:00:00:00 # Neutron L2
- configuration_template: null
- dns_nameservers: # Neutron L3, guess OS DNS Servers
- - 8.8.4.4
- - 8.8.8.8
- floating_ranges: # Neutron L3, floating Network Param
- - - 172.30.9.160 # floating IP range start
- - 172.30.9.254 # floating IP range end
- gre_id_range: # Neutron L2, what if VXLAN?
- - 2 # Neutron L2, tunnel ID range start
- - 65535 # Neutron L2, tunnel ID range end
- # Neutron L3, Internal Network
- # Parameters
- internal_cidr: 192.168.111.0/24 # internal network CIDR
- internal_gateway: 192.168.111.1 # internal network gateway
- net_l23_provider: ovs # TBD: must match transformations?
- segmentation_type: tun # TBD: what options are there? tun/vlan?
- vlan_range: # TBD
- - 1000
- - 1030
- vips:
- ...
-```
-
-## The "vips" in the "network" section
-
-In addition to all the above, the network section contains a "vips" section.
-I don't know what they mean, but there are some relations between these
-vips, and the networks defined above:
-
-```
-network:
- vips:
- management:
- ipaddr: 192.168.0.2 # TBD: same as management_vip?
- namespace: haproxy # TBD: network namespace?
- network_role: mgmt/vip # TBD
- node_roles:
- - controller # Why do we define it here?
- - primary-controller # for an HA environment?
- public:
- ...
- vrouter:
- ...
- vrouter_pub:
- ...
-```
-
-Also, in contrast to the "networks" section, the "vips" section is not a list,
-but a series of records...
-
-Some Fuel plugins seem to look at this particular setup, one of the examples
-in [2], absolute-dashboard-link.pp, reads:
-
-```
-$os_public_vip = $network_metadata['vips']['public']['ipaddr']
-```
-
-If you remember from above, each network has a "metadata" section, this
-matches the name of the variable $network_metadata. In that section there is
-a "vips" section, that contains a list of "vips", and one of the vips is
-"public", and one of the fields is "ipaddr".

-
-
-## The "Settings" section
-
-This looks like user interface stuff and default settings. For instance:
-settings:
-
-```
- editable:
- ...
- additional_components:
- ceilometer:
- description: If selected, Ceilometer component will be installed
- label: Install Ceilometer
- type: checkbox
- value: false
- weight: 40
-```
-
-This is clearly the label "Install Ceilometer" in the Fuel web dashboard.
-
-This looks like an email label entry with the corresponding regex to
-validate it:
-
-```
-settings:
- editable:
- access:
- email:
- description: Email address for Administrator
- label: Email
- regex:
- error: Invalid email
- source: ^\S+@\S+$
- type: text
- value: admin@localhost
- weight: 40
- ...
-```
-
-## Other
-
-I think most of it, specially the "settings" part, has been machine created.
-It would be nice to recreate one of this files from a manual Fuel
-deployment.
