Networking sfc plugin

Fuel Networking SFC plugin extends Mirantis OpenStack functionality by installing networking sfc support.

Problem description

Currently, Fuel has no support for Networking SFC. Networking sfc plugin aims to provide support for it.

Proposed change

Implement a Fuel plugin that will install Networking SFC support.

Performance Impact

Networking SFC plugin has no direct performance impact on OpenStack, but it consumes additional resources (CPU, memory, database) and this should be considered and tested on a test environment before production use.

Other deployer impact

None

Developer impact

None

Implementation

Plugin delivers Networking SFC support for Fuel. Plugin has several tasks:

  • The first task changes package fuel-ha-utils which comes from base Fuel 9.0 to package with applied fix https://review.openstack.org/#/c/334415. It's needed for proper Networking SFC deployment with Fuel 9.0.
  • The second task concerns controllers. Installs networking-sfc package on controllers and configures Fuel to use it.
  • The third task concerns computes nodes. Installs networking-sfc package on computes and configures Fuel to use it.

Networking SFC is installed on all environments which have plugin enabled. Plugin configures all needed Openstack services.
