Installing on Ansible Openstack Ussuri

Please ensure that the Trilio Appliance has been updated to the latest hotfix before continuing the installation.

Change the nova user id on the Trilio Nodes

Trilio is by default using the nova user id and group id 997:998 Ansible Openstack is not always 'nova' user id 162 on nova-compute containers. The 'nova' user id on the Trilio nodes need to be set the same as in the nova-compute containers. Do the following steps on all Trilio nodes in case of nova id not being 162:162:

Download the shell script that will change the user-id
Assign executable permissions
Edit script to use the correct nova id
Execute the script
Verify that 'nova' user and group id has changed to the desired value

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/trilioData/triliovault-cfg-scripts/master/common/nova_userid.sh
chmod +x nova_userid.sh
vi nova_userid.sh  # change nova user_id and group_id to uid & gid present on compute nodes. 
./nova_userid.sh
id nova

Prepare deployment host

Copy Ansible roles and vars to required places.

cd triliovault-cfg-scripts/
cp -R ansible/roles/* /opt/openstack-ansible/playbooks/roles/
cp ansible/main-install.yml   /opt/openstack-ansible/playbooks/os-tvault-install.yml
cp ansible/environments/group_vars/all/vars.yml /etc/openstack_deploy/user_tvault_vars.yml

In case of installing on OSA Victora edit OPENSTACK_DIST in the file /etc/openstack_/user_tvault_vars.yml to Victoria

Add Trilio playbook to /opt/openstack-ansible/playbooks/setup-openstack.ymlat the end of the file.

- import_playbook: os-tvault-install.yml

Add the following content at the end of the file /etc/openstack_deploy/user_variables.yml

# Datamover haproxy setting
haproxy_extra_services:
  - service:
      haproxy_service_name: datamover_service
      haproxy_backend_nodes: "{{ groups['dmapi_all'] | default([]) }}"
      haproxy_ssl: "{{ haproxy_ssl }}"
      haproxy_port: 8784
      haproxy_balance_type: http
      haproxy_balance_alg: roundrobin

      haproxy_backend_options:
        - "httpchk GET / HTTP/1.0\\r\\nUser-agent:\\ osa-haproxy-healthcheck"

Create the following file /opt/openstack-ansible/inventory/env.d/tvault-dmapi.yml

cat > /opt/openstack-ansible/inventory/env.d/tvault-dmapi.yml 
component_skel:
  dmapi_api:
    belongs_to:
      - dmapi_all

container_skel:
  dmapi_container:
    belongs_to:

  tvault-dmapi_containers:
    belongs_to:
      - all_containers
  tvault-dmapi_hosts:
    belongs_to:
      - hosts

Edit the file /etc/openstack_deploy/openstack_user_config.yml according to the example below to set host entries for Trilio components.

#tvault-dmapi
tvault-dmapi_hosts:   # Add controller details in this section as tvault DMAPI is resides on controller nodes.
  infra-1:            # controller host name. 
    ip: 172.26.0.3    # Ip address of controller
  infra-2:            # If we have multiple controllers add controllers details in same manner as shown in Infra-2  
    ip: 172.26.0.4    
    
#tvault-datamover
tvault_compute_hosts: # Add compute details in this section as tvault datamover is resides on compute nodes.
  infra-1:            # compute host name. 
    ip: 172.26.0.7    # Ip address of compute node
  infra-2:            # If we have multiple compute nodes add compute details in same manner as shown in Infra-2
    ip: 172.26.0.8

Edit the common editable parameter section in the file /etc/openstack_deploy/user_tvault_vars.yml

Append the required details like Trilio Appliance IP address, Trilio package version, Openstack distribution, snapshot storage backend, SSL related information, etc.

The possible package versions are:

Deploy Trilio components

Run the following commands to deploy only Trilio components in case of an already deployed Ansible Openstack.

cd /opt/openstack-ansible/playbooks

# To create Dmapi container
openstack-ansible lxc-containers-create.yml 

#To Deploy Trilio Components
openstack-ansible os-tvault-install.yml

#To configure Haproxy for Dmapi
openstack-ansible haproxy-install.yml

If Ansible Openstack is not already deployed then run the native Openstack deployment commands to deploy Openstack and Trilio Components together. An example for the native deployment command is given below:

openstack-ansible setup-infrastructure.yml --syntax-check
openstack-ansible setup-hosts.yml
openstack-ansible setup-infrastructure.yml
openstack-ansible setup-openstack.yml

Verify the Trilio deployment

Verify triliovault datamover api service deployed and started well. Run the below commands on controller node(s).

lxc-ls                                           # Check the dmapi container is present on controller node.
lxc-info -s controller_dmapi_container-a11984bf  # Confirm running status of the container

Verify triliovault datamover service deployed and started well on compute node(s). Run the following command oncompute node(s).

systemctl status tvault-contego.service
systemctl status tvault-objest-store  # If Storage backend is S3
df -h                                 # Verify the mount point is mounted on compute node(s)

Verify that triliovault horizon plugin, contegoclient, and workloadmgrclient are installed on the Horizon container.

Run the following command on Horizon container.

lxc-attach -n controller_horizon_container-1d9c055c                                   # To login on horizon container
apt list | egrep 'tvault-horizon-plugin|workloadmgrclient|contegoclient'              # For ubuntu based container
yum list installed |egrep 'tvault-horizon-plugin|workloadmgrclient|contegoclient'     # For CentOS based container

Verify that haproxy setting on controller node using below commands.

 haproxy -c -V -f /etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg # Verify the keyword datamover_service-back is present in output.

Update to the latest hotfix

After the deployment has been verified it is recommended to update to the latest hotfix to ensure the best possible experience.

To update the environment follow this procedure.
