Description

This cookbook configures the networking required for OpenStack, specifically for the compute service nova.

Requirements

Chef 0.10.0 or higher required (for Chef environment use)

Platform

• CentOS >= 6.3
• Ubuntu >= 12.04

Cookbooks

The following cookbooks are dependencies:

• mysql
• nova
• osops-utils
• sysctl

Attributes

Nova Networking

• nova["network"]["provider"] - The networking provider to use with nova. By default this is set to nova, but can be changed to quantum.
• nova["networks"] - An array of networks to be assigned to instances on creation

Example

[
    {
        "label" => "public",
        "ipv4_cidr" => "192.168.100.0/24",
        "bridge" => "br100",
        "bridge_dev" => "eth2",
        "dns1" => "8.8.8.8",
        "dns2" => "8.8.4.4"
    },
    {
        "label" => "private",
        "ipv4_cidr" => "192.168.200.0/24",
        "bridge" => "br200",
        "bridge_dev" => "eth3",
        "dns1" => "8.8.8.8",
        "dns2" => "8.8.4.4"
    }
]

• nova["network"]["public_interface"] - Interface for public IPs
• nova["network"]["dmz_cidr"] - A dmz range that should be accepted
• nova["network"]["network_manager"] - Class name for network manager
• nova["network"]["dhcp_domain"] - Domain to use for building hostnames
• nova["network"]["force_dhcp_release"] - Send DHCP release on instance termination?
• nova["network"]["send_arp_for_ha"] - Send gratuitous ARPs for HA setup?
• nova["network"]["auto_assign_floating_ip"] - Auto-assigning floating ip to VM?
• nova["network"]["floating_pool_name"] - if creating a floating ip pool, what to name it
• nova["network"]["multi_host"] - Use multi-host mode?
• nova["network"]["platform"] - Hash of platform specific package/service names and options

Quantum Networking

• quantum["network_api_class"] - used in nova.conf.the quantum api driver class.
• quantum["auth_strategy"] - used in nova.conf. the authentication strategy to use, by default this is set to keystone
• quantum["libvirt_vif_driver"]- used in nova.conf. the virtual interface driver, by default nova.virt.libvirt.vif.LibvirtHybridOVSBridgeDriver
• quantum["linuxnet_interface_driver"] - used in nova.conf. the linux net interface driver, by default nova.network.linux_net.LinuxOVSInterfaceDriver
• quantum["firewall_driver"] - used in nova.conf. the firewall driver to use, by default nova.virt.libvirt.firewall.IptablesFirewallDriver
• quantum["services"]["api"]["scheme"] - scheme for service (http/https)
• quantum["services"]["api"]["network"] - osops_networks network name which service operates on
• quantum["services"]["api"]["port"] - port service binds to
• quantum["services"]["api"]["path"] - service URI
• quantum["db"]["name"] - database name
• quantum["db"]["username"] - database username
• quantum["db"]["service_tenant_name"] - defaults to service
• quantum["db"]["service_user"] - defaults to quantum
• quantum["db"]["service_role"] - defaults to admin
• quantum["debug"] - default log level is INFO
• quantum["verbose"] - default log level is INFO
• quantum["overlap_ips"] - Enable or disable overlapping IPs for subnets. MUST be set to False if Quantum is being used in conjunction with nova security groups and/or metadata service.
• quantum["use_namespaces"] - should correspond to overlap_ips used for dhcp agent and l3 agent.
• quantum["plugin"] - select the quantum backend driver plugin to use, currently only supports openvswitch
• quantum["l3"]["router_id"] - once a default network and router are created update the environment with the router uuid
• quantum["l3"]["gateway_external_net_id"] - once a default network and router are created update the environment with the external network uuid
• quantum["ovs"]["network_type"] - used to select the network type, currently only supports gre tunnels.
• quantum["ovs"]["tunneling"] - must be true if using GRE
• quantum["ovs"]["tunnel_ranges"] - Enumerating ranges of GRE tunnel ID
• quantum["ovs"]["tunnel_bridge"] - the tunnel interface name
• quantum["ovs"]["external_bridge"] - the external interface name
• quantum["ovs"]["external_interface"] - an available interface on the node that will access the external network
• quantum["dhcp_domain"] - Domain to use for instance host names

Usage

The recipes nova-controller and nova-compute are used in their corresponding roles single-controller and single-compute. The role quantum-network-manager has been added to indicate a node that is running l3_agent, dhcp_agent, and ovs_plugin.

Networks LWRP

The nova-network cookbook has a resource and provider named networks. This LWRP provides the ability to create a fixed network, delete a fixed network, create a floating ip network, and delete a floating ip network.

Usage

Create a fixed network

nova_network_networks "Create #{label}" do
    label label
    multi_host T|F
    fixed_range cidr
    bridge host bridge name (i.e. br100)
    bridge_int host bridge interface (i.e. eth0)
    dns1 primary dns server ip or name
    dns2 secondary dns server ip or name
    action :create_fixed
end

Delete a fixed_network

nova_network_networks "Delete #{label}" do
    fixed_range cidr
    action :delete_fixed
end

Create a floating ip network

nova_network_networks "Create floating ip network #{cidr}" do
    pool floating_pool_name
    float_range cidr
    action :create_floating
end

Delete a floating ip network

nova_network_networks "Delete floating ip network #{cidr}" do
    float_range cidr
    action :delete_floating
end
