heat templates for ceph

easily set up ceph for testing upgrades etc

tested with hammer,jewel,luminous and mimic. mds nodes haven't been fully implemented yet

you will need to tune ceph_environment.yaml to suit your cloud and tweak proxy/fastestmirror settings at the top of admin.sh and node.sh

luminous and mimic use bluestore for osds

requirements

• if you don't use hw_disk_bus'scsi', hw_scsi_model='virtio-scsi' in image properties you'll need to change admin.sh to use /dev/vd{bc}

• designate should be set up to auto populate instance dns records if not you can inject hosts file into admin node with something like

  openstack server list -f value -c Networks -c Name | \
  grep ceph-lab1-network | sed -e 's/ceph1-lab-network=//' -e 's/,.*$//' | \
  ssh centos@login-ceph1-lab 'sudo tee -a /etc/hosts'
  

instructions

assuming a stack_name of ceph1-lab:

1. create stack

   openstack stack create --wait -e ceph_environment.yaml -t ceph_template.yaml --parameter ceph_release=hammer ceph1-lab

2. get login node

   openstack stack output show --all ceph1-lab

   wait a bit for cloud-init to complete setup

3. login and deploy

   ssh -A ceph-deploy@login-ceph1-lab
   cd ceph-deploy
   ./deploy.sh
   

notes

rarely I've seen an issue where the stack can't be deleted because a volume gets stuck in detaching. resolve with

cinder reset-state --attach-status detached <vol_id>
openstack volume delete <vol_id>
openstack server delete <last_server_id>
openstack stack delete --yes --wait <stack_name>

if you still can't delete the stack then you'll need

openstack stack abandon <stack_name>

(set enable_stack_abandon = True in heat.conf)

and a manual cleanup of the remaining resources
