Kuberef aims to + support and include other potential hardware and Kubernetes deployers as well. More + details can be found in the `Kuberef Wiki <https://wiki.opnfv.org/spaces/viewspace.action?key=KUB>`_. + +Infrastructure Prerequisites +============================= + +You need one physical server acting as a jump server along with minimum of two additional +servers on which RI-2 will be deployed. Please refer to Chapter 3 in CNTT RI-2 Documentation +for detailed information on the server and network specifications. + +Additionally, please make sure that you have KVM installed and set up on your jump server. This +is needed because the deployment will spin up a VM which will then carry out the host and +Kubernetes installation. + +Deployment +============================= + +Before initiating the deployment, please note the following: + +1. Add your configuration templates, ``pdf.yaml`` and ``idf.yaml`` under ``hw_config/<vendor>``. + +2. Modify the environmental variables defined in ``deploy.env`` to match your setup. + +3. Update ``hw_config/<vendor>/setup_network.sh`` with your correct networking info. This particular + script sets up networking on the provisioned nodes after the host provisioning stage is successful. + +.. note:: + + Depending on your setup, this script might not be needed. #WIP + +Once ready, issue the following command to initiate the deployment + +.. code-block:: bash + + ./deploy.sh + + +Once the deployment is successful, you will have a fully functional RI-2 setup! |
