terraform-ceph

Introduction

This is a Terraform-Project which prepares an infrastructure for a ceph cluster in an OpenStack-Cloud. I mainly use it for rapidly setting up a cluster for research and experimenting reasons. This is not meant for production usage!

The following pieces are set up by terraform:

  • Network infrastructure including a frontend and backend network for ceph. Also creates a router for floatingIP-access.
  • A variable defined amount of monitor and osd nodes.
  • A variable defined amount of osd disks.
  • A gateway instance for accessing nodes via sshuttle.

Usage

Create Application Credentials and place them in ~/.config/openstack/

Check the contents in tf/variable.tf and overwrite variables for your setup. You have to overwrite your own variables for:

  • Image ID (openstack image list)
  • Keypair-Name (openstack keypair list)
  • Flavor ID (openstack flavor list)
  • External network (openstack network list --external)

Use a clean project in OpenStack and make sure that your quotas are appropriate.

Afterwards apply the infrastructure:

cd tf/
terraform init
terraform plan
terraform apply

Follow-up deployment

Using Ansible, you can deploy ceph with the official ceph-ansible playbooks:

python3 -m venv myVenv
source myVenv/bin/activate
git clone https://github.com/ceph/ceph-ansible.git
pip install -r ceph-ansible/requirements.txt
pip install sshuttle

Per default, the gateway-instance gets a floatingIP attached which you need to look up. With this informations you can create a tunnel to your ceph infrastructure:

sshuttle -e "ssh -i <your_private_key>" -r ubuntu@<floating_ip_to_gateway> 192.168.199.0/24

ceph-ansible requires some variables. When using the defaults provided in the repository, you may use the examples provided in group_vars/:

cp group_vars/*.yml ceph-ansible/group_vars/

Also when using the default setup, you can use this hosts file. Save this in ceph-ansible/hosts:

[monitoring]
192.168.199.50
192.168.199.51
192.168.199.52

[mons]
192.168.199.50
192.168.199.51
192.168.199.52

[mdss]
192.168.199.50
192.168.199.51
192.168.199.52

[mgrs]
192.168.199.50
192.168.199.51
192.168.199.52

[osds]
192.168.199.100
192.168.199.101
192.168.199.102
192.168.199.103
192.168.199.104
192.168.199.105

Afterwards you can run ansible-playbook:

cd ceph-ansible/
ansible-playbook  -u ubuntu --private-key ~/.ssh/os-bibi.key -i hosts site.yml
