Stack used:
- Ansible for configuration management on servers
- BBB for the core video-conferencing software
- Greenlight for session management frontend
- Scalelite for load balancing
- Prometheus and Grafana (possibly) for monitoring
git submodule update --init
ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml
Note: cloudalchemy.node-exporter requires the gnu variant of tar on macOS. (brew install gnu-tar)
Note: cloudalchemy.prometheus requires the jmespath python module on your (deployer) machine
You need to create the file vault_password (if you know, you know)
ansible-playbook -u <your user> -t <the tag> main.yml
Use the relevant tags:
- offloader for changes to latency
- greenlight for changes the greenlight
- loadbalancer for changes to scalelite
- register-bbbs to register a new BBB instance (make sure to flush the redis cache before)
- bbb-install for a new BBB machine
- base must be run before any of these
- base-monitoring for adding node exporter
- Ensure that DNS is properly configured
- Enter Hostname twice in
inventory, below[all]and below the other role the machine should have, eg.[bbb] - Make sure your user can SSH into said machine
- run
ansible-playbook main.yml -t install-bbb - register your new bbb instance:
- at the monitoring by running
ansible-playbook main.yml --tags base-monitoring - at the loadbalancer by running
ansible-playbook main.yml --tags register-bbbs
- at the monitoring by running
- enable it manually in the loadbalancer
