- Additionally, add password validation function. - Breaks Parser.py into more manageable functions. - Changes where defaults are set (Parser.py instead of class under /consts) The goal is to not have any reference to a password in the code itself, only in configuration files or README files, if strictly necessary. The new password validation function, besides failing fast at the argument parser, makes sure the password will be allowed by Debian later on the installation. This commit is not touching any Shell script because they will probably be removed or change in follow-up commits. Test Plan: PASS: Operating system password should be set to value passed via --password Failure Path: PASS: Script fails fast without the parameter --password PASS: Script fails fast if password requirements are not met Regression: PASS: AIO-SX install works Story: 2005051 Task: 47960 Task: 48230 Change-Id: Ibf42b792ef825cee61cc69d1b5afa807361037b7 Signed-off-by: Bruno Muniz <bruno.muniz@encora.com>
StarlingX Deployment in Virtualized Environments
A StarlingX system can be installed in a variety of platforms with the following deployment options:
- Standard Controller
- Dedicated Storage
- Controller Storage
- All-in-one
- Duplex
- Simplex
Deployment options uses a variety of configurations based on 3 node identities:
- Controller
- Storage
- Compute
Standard Controller :: Dedicated Storage
The software installation workflow for an initial Ceph-backed block storage on dedicated storage nodes is:
- Controller-0 Installation and Provisioning
- Controller-1 / Compute Host / Storage Host Installation
- Controller-1 Provisioning
- Provider Network Configuration
- Compute Host Provisioning
- Storage Host Provisioning
Standard Controller :: Controller Storage
The software installation workflow for an initial LVM-backed block storage on controller nodes is:
- Controller-0 Installation
- Controller-0 and System Provisioning
- Controller-1 / Compute Host Installation
- Controller-1 Provisioning
- Compute Host Provisioning
All-in-one :: Duplex
The software installation workflow for two combined controller / compute nodes is:
- Controller-0 Installation and Provisioning
- Controller-1 Installation and Provisioning
All-in-one :: Simplex
The software installation workflow for a single combined controller / compute node is:
- Controller-0 Installation and Provisioning
Virtualization Environments
The available virtualization products where StarlingX has been deployed are:
- VirtualBox
- Libvirt/QEMU
Directory: libvirt
Deployment under Libvirt/QEMU uses a set of xml files to define the node identity:
- Controller All-in-one
- Controller
- Compute
- Storage
These nodes are used to create the virtual machines and the network interfaces to setup the StarlingX system:
- Setup Simplex
- 1 Controller
- Setup Duplex
- 2 Controllers
- Setup Controller Storage
- 2 Controllers
- 2 Computes
- Setup Dedicated Storage
- 2 Controllers
- 2 Computes
- 2 Storages
Directory: virtualbox
Deployment under VirtualBox uses a set of configuration files to define the StarlingX system:
- All-in-one Configuration
- Standard Controller Configuration
These configurations files are used to create the virtual machines and the network interfaces from a single script:
- Setup VM
Directory: provision
A set of scripts are provided to automate the provisioning of data interfaces and local storage resources for the compute function for StarlingX Duplex or Simplex.
