After you complete the prerequisite steps described in Prerequisites, proceed with bootstrapping your OpenStack-based Mirantis Container Cloud management cluster.
To bootstrap an OpenStack-based management cluster:
Log in to the bootstrap node running Ubuntu 18.04 that is configured as described in Prerequisites.
Prepare the bootstrap script:
Download and run the Container Cloud bootstrap script:
wget https://binary.mirantis.com/releases/get_container_cloud.sh
chmod 0755 get_container_cloud.sh
./get_container_cloud.sh
Change the directory to the kaas-bootstrap folder created by the script.
Obtain your license file that will be required during the bootstrap:
Create a user account at www.mirantis.com.
Log in to your account and download the mirantis.lic license file.
Save the license file as mirantis.lic under the kaas-bootstrap
directory on the bootstrap node.
Prepare the OpenStack configuration for a new cluster:
Log in to the OpenStack Horizon.
In the Project section, select API Access.
In the right-side drop-down menu Download OpenStack RC File, select OpenStack clouds.yaml File.
Save the downloaded clouds.yaml file in the kaas-bootstrap
folder created by the get_container_cloud.sh script.
In clouds.yaml, add the password field with your OpenStack
password under the clouds/openstack/auth section.
Example:
clouds:
openstack:
auth:
auth_url: https://auth.openstack.example.com:5000/v3
username: your_username
password: your_secret_password
project_id: your_project_id
user_domain_name: your_user_domain_name
region_name: RegionOne
interface: public
identity_api_version: 3
Verify access to the target cloud endpoint from Docker. For example:
docker run --rm alpine sh -c "apk add --no-cache curl; \
curl https://auth.openstack.example.com:5000/v3"
The system output must contain no error records.
In case of issues, follow the steps provided in Troubleshooting.
Configure the cluster and machines metadata:
In templates/machines.yaml.template,
modify the spec:providerSpec:value section for 3 control plane nodes
marked with the cluster.sigs.k8s.io/control-plane label
by substituting the flavor and image parameters
with the corresponding values of the control plane nodes in the related
OpenStack cluster. For example:
spec: &cp_spec
providerSpec:
value:
apiVersion: "openstackproviderconfig.k8s.io/v1alpha1"
kind: "OpenstackMachineProviderSpec"
flavor: kaas.minimal
image: bionic-server-cloudimg-amd64-20190612
Note
The flavor parameter value provided in the example above
is cloud-specific and must meet the Container Cloud
requirements.
Also, modify other parameters as required.
Modify the templates/cluster.yaml.template parameters to fit your
deployment. For example, add the corresponding values for cidrBlocks
in the spec::clusterNetwork::services section.
Optional. Configure the regional NTP server parameters to be applied to all machines of regional and managed clusters in the specified region.
In templates/cluster.yaml.template, add the ntp:servers section
with the list of required servers names:
spec:
...
providerSpec:
value:
kaas:
...
regional:
- helmReleases:
- name: openstack-provider
values:
config:
lcm:
...
ntp:
servers:
- 0.pool.ntp.org
...
provider: openstack
...
Optional. If you require all Internet access to go through a proxy server,
in bootstrap.env, add the following environment variables
to bootstrap the management and regional cluster using proxy:
HTTP_PROXY
HTTPS_PROXY
NO_PROXY
Example snippet:
export HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy.example.com:3128
export HTTPS_PROXY=http://user:pass@proxy.example.com:3128
export NO_PROXY=172.18.10.0,registry.internal.lan
The following variables formats are accepted:
Variable |
Format |
|---|---|
|
|
|
Comma-separated list of IP addresses or domain names |
For the list of Mirantis resources and IP addresses to be accessible from the Container Cloud clusters, see Requirements for an OpenStack-based cluster.
Optional. Configure external identity provider for IAM.
Optional. If you are going to use your own TLS certificates for Keycloak,
set DISABLE_OIDC=true in bootstrap.env.
Run the bootstrap script:
./bootstrap.sh all
In case of deployment issues, refer to Troubleshooting. If the script fails for an unknown reason:
Run the cleanup script:
./bootstrap.sh cleanup
Rerun the bootstrap script.
When the bootstrap is complete, collect and save the following management cluster details in a secure location:
The kubeconfig file located in the same directory as the bootstrap
script. This file contains the admin credentials
for the management cluster.
The private ssh_key for access to the management cluster nodes that is
located in the same directory as the bootstrap script.
Note
If the initial version of your Container Cloud management cluster
was earlier than 2.6.0, ssh_key is named openstack_tmp
and is located at ~/.ssh/.
The URL for the Container Cloud web UI.
To create users with permissions required for accessing the Container Cloud web UI, see Create initial users after a management cluster bootstrap.
The StackLight endpoints. For details, see Access StackLight web UIs.
The Keycloak URL that the system outputs when the bootstrap completes.
The admin password for Keycloak is located in
kaas-bootstrap/passwords.yml along with other IAM passwords.
Note
The Container Cloud web UI communicates with Keycloak to authenticate users. Keycloak is exposed using HTTPS and self-signed TLS certificates that are not trusted by web browsers.
To use your own TLS certificates for Keycloak, refer to Configure TLS certificates for management cluster applications.
Note
When the bootstrap is complete, the bootstrap cluster resources are freed up.
Optional. Deploy an additional regional cluster as described in Deploy an additional regional cluster (optional).
Now, you can proceed with operating your management cluster using the Container Cloud web UI and deploying managed clusters as described in Create and operate an OpenStack-based managed cluster.
