PVC Ansible
A set of Ansible roles to set up a PVC node host. Tested on Ansible 2.2 through 2.6; it is not guaranteed to work properly on older or newer versions.
Roles
This repository contains two roles:
base
This role provides a standardized and configured base system for PVC. This role expects that the system was installed via the PVC installer ISO, which results in a Debian Buster system.
pvc
This role configures the various subsystems required by PVC, including Ceph, Libvirt, Zookeeper, FRR, and Patroni, as well as the main PVC components themselves.
Variables
A default example set of configuration variables can be found in group_vars/default/
.
A full explanation of all variables can be found in the manual.
Using
NOTE: These roles expect a Debian 10.X (Buster) system specifically. This is currently the only operating environment supported for PVC.
NOTE: All non-default
directories under group_vars/
and files/
, and the hosts
file,
are ignored by this Git repository. It is advisable to manage these files securely
in a separate repository and use symlinks to place them in the expected locations in
this repository. Note that the files/
data is created during cluster bootstrap.
For full details, please see the general PVC install documentation.
- Deploy a set of 3 or 5 initial PVC nodes using the PVC install ISO.
- Create a new cluster group in the
hosts
file, usinghosts.default
as an example. For the initial bootstrap run, it is recommended to only include the initial coordinators to ensure a smooth bootstrapping. - Create a set of vars in
group_vars
, usinggroup_vars/default
as an example. Ensure that all desired coordinators are configured with theis_coordinator: yes
flag. - Run the
pvc.yml
playbook against the servers. If this is the very first run for a given cluster, use the-e bootstrap=yes
variable to ensure the Ceph, Patroni, and PVC clusters are initialized.
