Virtuozzo 7 supports OpenStack as cloud management solution since version 6. With Virtuozzo 7 we are going to add a lot of new capabilities to OpenStack integration.  
Current limitations (bugs, not implemented or by design):
 
#HA does not work.
 
#Virtuozzo Storage is not supported for containers and VMs in cinder.
 
  
This guide allows you to install OpenStack with Virtuozzo nodes with a help of Devstack tools. Devstack allows you to install stateless OpenStack for demo purpose that means it will be reset after host reboot. So, the best platform to setup OpenStack in this case is virtual machines.
+
This guide describes two ways of installing OpenStack on Virtuozzo nodes. The first is for quick/development/POC needs. The second is for production. Please keep in mind that devstack allows you to install OpenStack for demo/POC/development purposes only. That means it will be reset after host reboot.
 
 
Please note that OpenStack now does not support containers and virtual machines on the same node, thus you need at least two nodes to try containers and VMs management.
 
  
 
You need the following infrastructure to setup OpenStack with Virtuozzo 7:

IP connection tracking should be enabled for CT0. Please do the following:
+
If you have br0 bridge configured as an IP interface, then you should move an IP address assigned to it to the physical ethernet interface bridged to br0.
#Open the file /etc/modprobe.d/vz.conf
+
You can check you configuration with the following command:
#Change the line <code>options nf_conntrack ip_conntrack_disable_ve0=1</code> to <code>options nf_conntrack ip_conntrack_disable_ve0=0</code>
+
 
#Reboot the system
+
$ if=$(brctl show | grep '^br0' | awk ' { print $4 }') && addr=$(ip addr | grep -w 'br0' | grep inet | awk ' {print $2} ') && gw=$(ip route | grep default | awk ' { print $3 } ') && echo "My interface is '$if', gateway is '$gw', IP address '$addr'"
 +
 
 +
For instance you have the following output after execution the above script:
 +
 
 +
My interface is 'en33', gateway is '192.168.190.2', IP address '192.168.190.134/24'.
 +
 
 +
Then edit your /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ens33 to have the following content and remove BRIDGE="br0" string from it:
 +
...
 +
ONBOOT=yes

IPADDR=192.168.190.134
 +
GATEWAY=192.168.190.2

 +
Remove /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-br0 file.

<translate> This article describes how to install OpenStack on Virtuozzo 7.

Introduction[edit]

Virtuozzo 7 supports OpenStack as cloud management solution since version 6. With Virtuozzo 7 we are going to add a lot of new capabilities to OpenStack integration.

This guide describes two ways of installing OpenStack on Virtuozzo nodes. The first is for quick/development/POC needs. The second is for production. Please keep in mind that devstack allows you to install OpenStack for demo/POC/development purposes only. That means it will be reset after host reboot.

You need the following infrastructure to setup OpenStack with Virtuozzo 7:

  1. controller host: physical host or virtual machine with at least 4CPU, 8GB RAM, 150GB disk. This host will act as a controller and Virtuozzo containers host.
  2. compute host: physical host or virtual machine with at least 4CPU, 8GB RAM, 150GB disk. This host will act as a virtual machines host.

Prerequisites[edit]

You need to install and update your Virtuozzo nodes first. Install Virtuozzo 7 on your controller and compute hosts as usual. You can use basic (local) or Virtuozzo Storage. Update Virtuozzo hosts

$ yum update -y

If you have br0 bridge configured as an IP interface, then you should move an IP address assigned to it to the physical ethernet interface bridged to br0. You can check you configuration with the following command:

$ if=$(brctl show | grep '^br0' | awk ' { print $4 }') && addr=$(ip addr | grep -w 'br0' | grep inet | awk ' {print $2} ') && gw=$(ip route | grep default | awk ' { print $3 } ') && echo "My interface is '$if', gateway is '$gw', IP address '$addr'"

For instance you have the following output after execution the above script:

My interface is 'en33', gateway is '192.168.190.2', IP address '192.168.190.134/24'.

Then edit your /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ens33 to have the following content and remove BRIDGE="br0" string from it:

...
ONBOOT=yes
IPADDR=192.168.190.134
GATEWAY=192.168.190.2
PREFIX=24
...

Remove /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-br0 file.

$ rm /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-br0

Then restart network service:

$ systemctl restart network

Setup OpenStack Controller Node with Virtuozzo Containers Support (*Developer/POC Setup*)[edit]

You are able to setup OpenStack controller node together with compute node on the same server for demo or test purpose. In this case compute node with Virtuozzo Containers support will be deployed. You can add another compute node with containers or VMs anytime you want as described in Setup OpenStack Compute Node section.

Git must be installed on all your Virtuozzo nodes:

$ yum install git -y

Clone virtuozzo scripts:

$ cd /vz
$ git clone https://github.com/virtuozzo/virtuozzo-openstack-scripts
$ cd virtuozzo-openstack-scripts

If you want to use Virtuozzo Storage with OpenStack and your Virtuozzo Storage is running on another node and not on the compute you need to setup Virtuozzo Storage client and authorize compute node in the Virtuozzo Storage Cluster.

Setup Virtuozzo Storage client:

$ yum install vstorage-client -y

Check cluster discovery is working fine first:

$ vstorage discover

Output will show the discovered clusters. Now you need to authenticate controller node on the Virtuozzo Storage cluster:

$ vstorage -c $CLUSTER_NAME auth-node

Enter the virtuozzo storage cluster password and press Enter. Check the cluster properties:

$ vstorage -c $CLUSTER_NAME top

Output will show Virtuozzo storage cluster properties and state.

Configure the script on the CONTROLLER node. Please read full script description here https://github.com/virtuozzo/virtuozzo-openstack-scripts/blob/master/README.md

Example:

$ source vzrc --host_ip 10.24.41.25 --password Virtuozzo1! --use_provider_network true  --fixed_range 192.168.0.0/24 --floating_range 10.24.41.0/24 --floating_pool "start=10.24.41.151,end=10.24.41.199" --public_gateway 10.24.41.1 --gateway 192.168.0.1 --vzstorage vstorage1 --mode ALL 

Run the script on your CONTROLLER node and follow instructions (if any):

$ ./setup_devstack_vz7.sh

Installation can take up to 30 minutes depending on your Internet connection speed. Finished!

Setup OpenStack Compute Node (*Developer/POC Setup*)[edit]

Git must be installed on all your Virtuozzo nodes:

$ yum install git -y

Clone Virtuozzo scripts to your COMPUTE node:

$ cd /vz
$ git clone https://github.com/virtuozzo/virtuozzo-openstack-scripts
$ cd /vz/virtuozzo-openstack-scripts

If you want to use Virtuozzo Storage with OpenStack and your Virtuozzo Storage is running on another node and not on the compute you need to setup Virtuozzo Storage client and authorize compute node in the Virtuozzo Cluster. Setup Virtuozzo Storage client:

$ yum install vstorage-client -y

Check cluster discovery is working fine first:

$ vstorage discover

Output will show the discovered clusters. Now you need to authenticate controller node on the Virtuozzo Storage cluster:

$ vstorage -c $CLUSTER_NAME auth-node

Enter the virtuozzo storage cluster password and press Enter. Check the cluster properties:

$ vstorage -c $CLUSTER_NAME top

Output will show the virtuozzo storage cluster properties and state.

Configure the script on the COMPUTE node. Please read script description here https://github.com/virtuozzo/virtuozzo-openstack-scripts/blob/master/README.md

Example:

$ source vzrc --host_ip 10.24.41.26 --password Virtuozzo1!  --use_provider_network true --mode COMPUTE --controller 10.24.41.25 

Run the script on your COMPUTE node and follow instructions (if any):

$ ./setup_devstack_vz7.sh

How to change Virtualization Type to Virtual Machines on the Compute Node[edit]

If you want to use virtual machines instead of containers on your compute node you need to change virtualization type to KVM on the selected compute node.

Open nova configuration file:

$ vi /etc/nova/nova.conf

Change the following lines:

[libvirt]
...
virt_type = parallels
images_type = qcow2
connection_uri = vz:///system

Delete the line:

inject_partition = -2

Save the file.

Restart nova-compute service:

$ su stack
$ screen -r

Press Ctrl-c

$ sg libvirtd '/usr/bin/nova-compute --config-file /etc/nova/nova.conf' & echo $! >/vz/stack/status/stack/n-cpu.pid; fg || echo "n-cpu failed to start" | tee "/vz/stack/status/stack/n-cpu.failure"

To exit from screen session: Press Ctrl+a+d

How to redeploy OpenStack on the same nodes[edit]

Your OpenStack setup will be reset after node restart. To redeploy OpenStack on the same nodes do the following:

  1. cd /vz/virtuozzo-openstack-scripts
  2. git pull
  3. Run ./setup_devstack_vz7.sh with options you need.

Installing OpenStack with help of packstack on Virtuozzo 7 (*Production Setup*)[edit]

  • Install Virtuozzo Platform Release package to all Virtuozzo OpenStack nodes:
$ yum install vz-platform-release
  • Install packstack package:

Install and configure a nova controller node on Virtuozzo 7 (*Production Setup*)[edit]

  • Download the container image
  • Unpack it
$ tar -xzvf centos7-exe.hds.tar.gz
  • Upload the image to glance:

NOTE: this image was created for testing purposes only. Don't use it in production as is!

$ glance image-create --name centos7-exe --disk-format ploop --min-ram 512 --min-disk 1 --container-format bare --property vm_mode=exe --property hypervisor_type=vz --property cinder_img_volume_type=vstorage-ploop --file centos7-exe.hds
$ glance image-create --name centos7-hvm --disk-format qcow2 --min-ram 1024 --min-disk 10 --container-format bare --property cinder_img_volume_type=vstorage-qcow2 --file CentOS-7-x86_64-GenericCloud.qcow2
  • CentOS image one can get here [1]

Install and configure a compute node on Virtuozzo 7 (*Production Setup*)[edit]

Please use this chapter if you are going to run containers OR virtual machines on your compute node, but not containers AND virtual machines simultaneously. If you need to run containers and VMs simultaneously, please use next chapter.

  • Follow instructions on OpenStack.org
  • In addition to above instructions change /etc/nova/nova.conf:
[DEFAULT]
...
vnc_keymap =
force_raw_images = False
pointer_model = ps2mouse
[libvirt]
...
vzstorage_mount_user = nova
vzstorage_mount_group = root
virt_type = parallels
images_type = ploop
connection_uri = vz:///system
  • Remove 'cpu_mode' parameter or set the following:
cpu_mode = none
  • Then restart nova-compute service:
$ systemctl restart openstack-nova-compute.service
  • If you plan to run Virtual Machines on your Compute node, change 'images_type' parameter to 'qcow2'

Install and configure a block storage node on Virtuozzo 7 (*Production Setup*)[edit]

If you are going to run containers AND virtual machines simultaneously on your compute node you have to use this approach.

  • Follow instructions on OpenStack.org
  • In addition to above instructions change /etc/cinder/cinder.conf:
[DEFAULT]
...
enabled_backends = lvmdriver-1,vstorage-ploop,vstorage-qcow2
...
[vstorage-ploop]
vzstorage_default_volume_format = ploop
vzstorage_shares_config = /etc/cinder/vzstorage-shares-vstorage.conf
volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.vzstorage.VZStorageDriver
volume_backend_name = vstorage-ploop
[vstorage-qcow2]
vzstorage_default_volume_format = qcow2
vzstorage_shares_config = /etc/cinder/vzstorage-shares-vstorage.conf
volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.vzstorage.VZStorageDriver
volume_backend_name = vstorage-qcow2
  • Create /etc/cinder/vzstorage-shares-vstorage.conf with the following content:
YOUR-CLUSTER-NAME ["-u", "cinder", "-g", "root", "-m", "0770"]
  • Create two new volume types:
$ cinder type-create vstorage-qcow2
$ cinder type-key vstorage-qcow2 set volume_backend_name=vstorage-qcow2
$ cinder type-create vstorage-ploop
$ cinder type-key vstorage-ploop set volume_backend_name=vstorage-ploop
  • Create directory for storage logs:
$ mkdir /var/log/pstorage
  • Authenticate your Virtuozzo Storage client nodes in oreser to allow them to mount cluster:
$ echo $CLUSTER_PASSWD | vstorage auth-node -c YOUR-CLUSTER-NAME -P

  • Then restart cinder services:
$ systemctl restart openstack-cinder-api
$ systemctl restart openstack-cinder-scheduler
$ systemctl restart openstack-cinder-volume

How to create a new ploop image ready to upload to Glance[edit]

  • Select os template. The following templates are possible: vzlinux-7, centos-7, ubuntu-16.04, ubuntu-14.04, debian-8.0, centos-6, debian-8.0-x86_64-minimal
$ ct=centos-7
  • Create a new container based on necessary os distribution
$ prlctl create glance-$ct --vmtype ct --ostemplate $ct
  • Set IP address and DNS to be able to connect to internet from the container
$ prlctl set glance-$ct --ipadd IPADDR --nameserver DNS_IPADDR
  • Add additional network adapter
$ prlctl set glance-$ct --device-add net --network Bridged --dhcp on
  • Start the container
$ prlctl start glance-$ct
  • Install cloud-init packet
$ prlctl exec glance-$ct yum install cloud-init -y
  • Stop the container and mount it
$ prlctl stop glance-$ct
$ prlctl mount glance-$ct
  • Store the container uuid
$ uuid=$(vzlist glance-$ct | awk ' NR>1 { print $1 }') 
  • Remove the following modules from cloud.cfg
$ sed -i '/- growpart/d' /vz/root/$uuid/etc/cloud/cloud.cfg
$ sed -i '/- resizefs/d' /vz/root/$uuid/etc/cloud/cloud.cfg
  • Prepare network scripts
cat > /vz/root/$uuid/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 << _EOF
DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=yes
NM_CONTROLLED=no
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
_EOF
  • If you need more than one network adapters within a container, make as many copies as you need
$ cp /vz/root/$uuid/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 /vz/root/$uuid/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1
$ sed -i '/eth0/eth1' /vz/root/$uuid/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1
  • Perform some cleanup
$ rm -f /vz/root/$uuid/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-venet0*
$ rm -f /vz/root/$uuid/etc/resolv.conf
  • Create ploop disk and copy files
$ mkdir /tmp/ploop-$ct
$ ploop init -s 950M /tmp/ploop-$ct/$ct.hds
$ mkdir /tmp/ploop-$ct/dst
$ ploop mount -m /tmp/ploop-$ct/dst /tmp/ploop-$ct/DiskDescriptor.xml
$ cp -Pr --preserve=all /vz/root/$uuid/* /tmp/ploop-$ct/dst/
$ ploop umount -m /tmp/ploop-$ct/dst/
  • Unmount the container
$ prlctl umount glance-$ct
  • Now the image tmp/ploop-$ct/$ct.hds is ready to be uploaded to Glance
