StarlingX Deployment in Virtualized Environments
================================================
A StarlingX system can be installed in a variety of platforms with the following
deployment options:
- Standard Controller
- Dedicated Storage
- Controller Storage
- All-in-one
- Duplex
- Simplex
Deployment options uses a variety of configurations based on 3 node identities:
- Controller
- Storage
- Compute
Standard Controller :: Dedicated Storage
----------------------------------------
The software installation workflow for an initial Ceph-backed block
storage on dedicated storage nodes is:
- Controller-0 Installation and Provisioning
- Controller-1 / Compute Host / Storage Host Installation
- Controller-1 Provisioning
- Provider Network Configuration
- Compute Host Provisioning
- Storage Host Provisioning
Standard Controller :: Controller Storage
-----------------------------------------
The software installation workflow for an initial LVM-backed block
storage on controller nodes is:
- Controller-0 Installation
- Controller-0 and System Provisioning
- Controller-1 / Compute Host Installation
- Controller-1 Provisioning
- Compute Host Provisioning
All-in-one :: Duplex
--------------------
The software installation workflow for two combined controller / compute
nodes is:
- Controller-0 Installation and Provisioning
- Controller-1 Installation and Provisioning
All-in-one :: Simplex
---------------------
The software installation workflow for a single combined controller / compute
node is:
- Controller-0 Installation and Provisioning
Virtualization Environments
---------------------------
The available virtualization products where StarlingX has been deployed
are:
- VirtualBox
- Libvirt/QEMU
Directory: libvirt
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Deployment under Libvirt/QEMU uses a set of xml files to define the node
identity:
- Controller All-in-one
- Controller
- Compute
- Storage
These nodes are used to create the virtual machines and the network interfaces
to setup the StarlingX system:
- Setup Simplex
- 1 Controller
- Setup Duplex
- 2 Controllers
- Setup Controller Storage
- 2 Controllers
- 2 Computes
- Setup Dedicated Storage
- 2 Controllers
- 2 Computes
- 2 Storages
Directory: virtualbox
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Deployment under VirtualBox uses a set of configuration files to define the
StarlingX system:
- All-in-one Configuration
- Standard Controller Configuration
These configurations files are used to create the virtual machines and the
network interfaces from a single script:
- Setup VM
Directory: provision
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A set of scripts are provided to automate the provisioning of data interfaces and
local storage resources for the compute function for StarlingX Duplex or Simplex.
