Description

This repository contains examples of the roles, environments and other supporting files for deploying an OpenStack Grizzly reference architecture using Chef. This currently includes the 7 OpenStack core projects: Compute, Dashboard, Identity, Image, Network, Object and Block Storage.

Development of the latest Stable release will continue on the master branch and releases tagged with 7.0.X. Once development starts against OpenStack master or havana, this branch will move to grizzly and the appropriate branches will continue development.

The documentation has been moved to the https://github.com/mattray/chef-docs repository for merging to https://github.com/opscode/chef-docs and eventual release to https://docs.opscode.com. Instructions for building the docs are included in the repository. There is additional documentation on the OpenStack wiki.

Usage

This repository uses Berkshelf (https://berkshelf.com) to manage downloading all of the proper cookbook versions, whether from Git or from the Opscode Community site (https://community.opscode.com). The preference is to eventually upstream all cookbook dependencies to the Opscode Community site. The Berksfile lists the current dependencies.

There is a Spiceweasel (http://bit.ly/spcwsl) infrastructure.yml manifest documenting all the roles and environments required to deploy OpenStack.

To see the commands necessary to push all of the files to the Chef server, run the following command:

spiceweasel infrastructure.yml

To actually deploy the repository to your Chef server, run the following command:

spiceweasel -e infrastructure.yml

Cookbooks

The cookbooks have been designed and written in such a way that they can be used to deploy individual service components on any of the nodes in the infrastructure; in short they can be used for single node 'all-in-one' installs (for testing), right up to multi/many node production installs. In order to achieve this flexibility, they are configured by attributes which may be used to override search. Chef 10 or later is currently required, but the intention is to move to Chef 11 with the havana release to take advantage of features such as partial search. Ruby 1.9.x is considered the minimum supported version of Ruby as well. Most users of this repository test with the full-stack Chef 11 client and a Chef server (Chef Solo is not explicity supported).

Each of the OpenStack services has its own cookbook and will eventually be available on the Chef Community site.
