osp_director

Installs OSP Director and runs install of undercloud. This role mimics the steps in the OSP 13 install document from Red Hat. This particular role covers chapters 4 and 6 in the above document. Some steps are omitted because they are covered in other roles within OASIS. For example

• 4.1 - Creating the stack user. See the users_and_groups role
• 4.3 - Setting the undercloud hostname. See the hostname role
• 4.4 - Registering and updating your undercloud. See the rhsm role. Also, be sure to run an update on all the systems before running this role
• 4.7 - Configuring the director. This step is just uploading the templates, which is the job of osp_templates.
• A.7 Trust overcloud cert from the undercloud. Handling overcloud certificates is the work of update_ca_trust.

Requirements

Ansible 2.9 or higher

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 or equivalent

Valid Red Hat Subscriptions

Role Variables

Currently the following variables are supported:

General

• osp_director_named_env - Name of the stack environment to create. Defaults to "example-dev".
• osp_director_undercloud - A dictionary of a few values needed in this role to configure things outside of the templates. Takes the structure:

osp_director_undercloud:
  stack_user_password: password
  hostname: director.example.com
  cidr: 192.168.10.10/24
  install_ceph_ansible: false
  nameservers:
    - 8.8.8.8
    - 8.8.4.4

• osp_director_overcloud - A dictionary with a few values needed outside of the templates to run Director. Takes the strcuture:

osp_director_overcloud:
  domain: example.com
  ceph: "no"
  overcloud_full_image_root_password: secret123

• osp_director_templates - Path to the templates that are needed to run Director. These are highly dependent on your environment and desired config for OpenStack. See the osp_templates role's sample directory for one such example. However, that example should not be taken as anything close to representative of the breadth of options or complexity.
• osp_director_become - Default: true. If this role needs administrator privileges, then use the Ansible become functionality (based off sudo).
• osp_director_become_user - Default: root. If the role uses the become functionality for privilege escalation, then this is the name of the target user to change to.
