Scheduling an IRC meeting on our private cloud setup

2014-03-18 Thread Ralph Bean
Our cloud went down today and we realized that only very few of us
actually know how it works and how to repair it.

To address this, Kevin has agreed to teach us what he knows about it.
We're looking to set up a #fedora-classroom meeting, have zodbot log
it, and afterwards turn the log into an infra-docs document.

If you're interested in attending and asking questions, please fill
out the following survey so we can find the best time:

http://whenisgood.net/cloud-halp

Please note that you need to set your timezone for that questionnaire
to work.

-Ralph

Thanks for setting this up, Ralph. I hope to be able to pick up a few
tidbits for the work I'll be doing for the Hat this summer.

Okay, based on the results of the survey: let's do Tuesday March 25th
at 18:00UTC in #fedora-classroom.  Not everyone can make it then, but
that's the time when the most people can.

I've marked it on the infrastructure calendar:

18:00:03  #topic intro
18:00:03  The meeting name has been set to 
'infrastructure-private-cloud-class'
18:00:22  hey everyone. who is around for a bit of talking about 
fedora's infrastructure private cloud?
18:00:26 * threebean is here
18:00:32  hello
18:00:38  aqui! aqui!
18:00:44 * mirek-hm is here

18:01:53 * abadger1999 is here
18:01:57  hi
18:02:24  cool. ;) ok, I thought I would give a bit of 
background/history first, then a bit about ansible integration, then talk about 
plans...
18:02:51  #topic History/current setup
18:02:58  that sounds good.  can we interrupt you with questions?  
or should be hold them for later?
18:03:10  threebean: please do... questions are good. ;)
18:03:16  cool, cool.
18:03:20 * jsmith is late
18:03:23  so, our current setup is a openstack folsom cloud
18:03:31  It was mostly manually installed by me.
18:03:38  Ie, I installed rpms, ran setup, etc...
18:03:55  there are currently 7 nodes in use
18:04:07  Nodes = servers?
18:04:08  1 (fed-cloud02.cloud) is the 'head node'
18:04:15  6 are compute nodes
18:04:20  jsmith: yeah, physical boxes.
18:04:37  Perfect, just wanted to make sure I was getting the 
nomenclature right
18:04:53  The compute notes only run openstack-nova-compute, and one of 
them also runs cinder (the storage service will get to that in a few)
18:05:04  the head node runs all the other stuff.
18:05:18  and acts as the gateway to all the other things.
18:05:34  it runs network, the db (mysqld), amqp, etc, etc.
18:05:48  It also runs cinder for storage.
18:05:50  head node is fed-cloud02.cloud.fedoraproject.org BTW
18:06:29  when you fire off an instance openstack looks around and 
schedules it on a compute node.
18:06:34  outside of cinder, is there any shared storage?
18:07:07  when you ask for a persistent volume, it allocates it from one 
of the cinder servers... it makes a lv in a pool and shares it via iscsi
18:07:14  tflink: nope. Not currently.
18:07:45  aha, that are VG cinder-volumes in lvs output
18:07:46  all storage is either cinder from 02 or cinder from 08... or 
each compute node has a small amount of storage it uses to cache images locally.
18:07:56  mirek-hm: yeah.
18:08:04  is that a requirement of newer openstack? when I set up my 
dev/standalone system, I got the impression that something like gluster was 
highly reccomended for more than 1 mode
18:08:05  lets see...what elese.
18:08:24  tflink: we tried gluster, but it was really really really 
really slow at the time.
18:08:42  oh, networking:
18:08:44  no swift for image service?
18:09:01  nirik: you forget on one exception, Copr-be have one 
storage allocated on one compute node (800 GB)
18:09:02  we have a number of tenants (projects). Each one gets it's own 
vlan.
18:09:18  mirek-hm: thats from the 08 compute node via cinder there. ;)
18:09:44  we have a /24 network for external ips. Each instance gets one 
by default and can also allocated a static one.
18:10:08  danofsatx-work: yeah, we do have swift.
18:10:17  it uses storage on fed-cloud0

I promised to ask OpenStack guys two guestions. Here are the answers:

1) Can we put Arm64 into OpenStack? No. Not yet supported.

2) Can be TripleO scripted? Yes, there already exist puppet modules - he was 
aware of:
  https://github.com/agroup/tripleo-puppet-elements
I asked uncle Google and said that ansible exists as well:
  https://github.com/redhat-openstack/khaleesi
but OS guy said this is for devel setups and for production we should rather 
use:
  https://github.com/agroup/instack
  https://github.com/agroup/instack-undercloud
which is intended for production - although that is not ansible.
