1.Gateway Configuration

2.Configure PLUMgrid Services on Gateway nodes

Gateway Configuration

Follow the steps below to configure the OpenStack Compute nodes:

1. Remove openvswitch

   $ sudo rmmod openvswitch
   

2. Disable the Apparmor program to allow the installation of PLUMgrid LXC.

   $ sudo service apparmor stop 
   $ sudo update-rc.d -f apparmor remove 
   #(for Apparmor version>2.5.1 ) 
   $ sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor teardown
   

3.Install the IO Visor module, iovisor-dkms 1.0.6-23 :

$ sudo apt-get install dkms iovisor-dkms

4.Install PLUMgrid puppet, plumgrid-puppet 5.0.0-b14 :

$ sudo apt-get install plumgrid-puppet

5.Load the IO Visor module:

$ sudo modprobe iovisor

6.Enable IPv4 forwarding:

$ sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1

7.Edit /etc/sysctl.conf and add the following content to it:

net.ipv4.ip_forward=1

8.Create the file, /etc/sudoers.d/ifc_ctl_sudoers and add the following content to it:

nova ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /opt/pg/bin/ifc_ctl_pp *

Modify permissions for /etc/sudoers.d/ifc_ctl_sudoers

$ sudo chown root:root /etc/sudoers.d/ifc_ctl_sudoers 
$ sudo chmod 644 /etc/sudoers.d/ifc_ctl_sudoers

9.Install the PLUMgrid LXC:

$ sudo apt-get install plumgrid-lxc 
$ sudo apt-get -f install [to install dependencies]

Configure PLUMgrid Services on Gateway nodes

Follow the steps below to configure PLUMgrid services on the Gateway node: 1.Create /var/lib/libvirt/filesystems/plumgrid-data/conf/pg/plumgrid.conf and add the following content:

plumgrid_ip=<Management IP address of PLUMgrid Director> 
plumgrid_port=8001 
mgmt_dev=<Management Interface> 
label=<HOSTNAME OF THE MACHINE> 
plumgrid_rsync_port=2222 
plumgrid_rest_addr=0.0.0.0:9180 
fabric_mode=host 
plumgrid_syslog_ng_ip= 
plumgrid_syslog_ng_port= 
plumgrid_monitor_interval= 
start_plumgrid_iovisor=yes 
start_plumgrid=`/opt/pg/scripts/pg_is_director.sh $plumgrid_ip` 
location=

2.Add hostname of the Gateway node to the file,
/var/lib/libvirt/filesystems/plumgrid-data/conf/etc/hostname. Create the file if it does not exist. The hostname of the node can be found by running the command, hostname -f

3.Create the file, /var/lib/libvirt/filesystems/plumgrid-data/conf/etc/hosts and add the following content to it:

127.0.0.1   localhost 
127.0.1.1   <FQDN> <Hostname>

4.Create the file, /var/lib/libvirt/filesystems/plumgrid-data/conf/pg/ifcs.conf and add the following content to it:

<fabric_interface e.g. br-fabric> = fabric_core host 
<external access interface e.g. ens4> = access_phys

1. Restart the PLUMgrid service:

   $ sudo service plumgrid start
