Cinder AKA OpenStack block storage service ads the persistent storage to an instance, it also provides an infrastructure for managing volumes and interacts with compute service to provide volume for instance. The amount of storage is provisioned and consumed is determined the block storage drivers, there are a variety of drivers that are available: NAS/SAN, NFS, iSCSI, Ceph, and more.

The block storage API and scheduler service typically runs on the controller nodes. Depending upon the drivers used, the volume service can run on controllers, compute nodes, or standalone storage nodes.

This guide helps you to install and configure cinder on the controller node. This service requires at least one additional storage node that provides volumes to instances.

Install and configure controller node:

Login into MySQL server as the root user.

# mysql -u root -p

Create the nova database.

CREATE DATABASE cinder;

Grant a proper permission to the nova database.

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON cinder.* TO 'cinder'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON cinder.* TO 'cinder'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

Replace “password” with a suitable password. Exit from MySQL.

Load your admin credential from the environment script.

# source admin-openrc.sh

Create the cinder user for creating service credentials.

# openstack user create --password-prompt cinder

Install and configure Cinder (Block Storage) controller components:

Install the following packages on the controller node.

# apt-get install cinder-api cinder-scheduler python-cinderclient

Edit the /etc/cinder/cinder.conf file.

# nano /etc/cinder/cinder.conf

Modify the below settings and make sure to place an entries in the proper sections. Some time you may need to add sections if it does not exists and also you require to add some entries which are missing in the file, not all.

[database]
connection = mysql://cinder:password@controller/cinder

## Replace "password" with the password you chose for cinder database

[DEFAULT]
...
rpc_backend = rabbit
auth_strategy = keystone
verbose = True
my_ip = 192.168.12.21

## Management IP of Controller Node

[oslo_messaging_rabbit]
rabbit_host = controller
rabbit_userid = openstack
rabbit_password = password

## Replace "password" with the password you chose for the openstack account in RabbitMQ.

[keystone_authtoken]
auth_uri = http://controller:5000
auth_url = http://controller:35357
auth_plugin = password
project_domain_id = default
user_domain_id = default
project_name = service
username = cinder
password = password

## Replace "password" with the password you chose for cinder user in the identity service
## Comment out or remove any other options in the [keystone_authtoken] section

[oslo_concurrency]
lock_path = /var/lock/cinder

## Comment out the lock_path in (DEFAULT) section.

Populate the cinder database.

# su -s /bin/sh -c "cinder-manage db sync" cinder

Restart the services.

# service cinder-scheduler restart
# service cinder-api restart

Remove the SQLite database file.

# rm -f /var/lib/cinder/cinder.sqlite

List the services, you can ignore the warnings.

# cinder-manage service list

That’s All!!. Next is to configure a Storage Node.

This guide shows you how to launch an instance of Fedora 22 image that we added in OpenStack Kilo on Ubuntu 14.04.2 – Glance. Here we will be using command line interface on the controller node to create an instance, this tutorial launches an instance using OpenStack Networking (neutron).

Load the admin credentials on the controller node.

# source demo-openrc.sh

Almost all cloud images uses public keys for authentication instead of user/password authentication. Before launching an instance, we must create a public/private key pair.

Generate and add a key pair.

# nova keypair-add my-key

Copy the output of above command and save it into any file, this key should be used with ssh command to login to instance.

List the available key pair’s.

# nova keypair-list
+--------+-------------------------------------------------+
| Name   | Fingerprint                                     |
+--------+-------------------------------------------------+
| my-key | 0a:b2:30:cb:54:fc:c4:69:29:00:19:ef:38:8d:2e:2d |
+--------+-------------------------------------------------+

Launch an instance:

To launch an instance, we must need to know flavors, available images, networks, and security groups.

List the available flavors, this is nothing but a predefined allocation of cpu, memory and disk.

# nova flavor-list
+----+-----------+-----------+------+-----------+------+-------+-------------+-----------+
| ID | Name      | Memory_MB | Disk | Ephemeral | Swap | VCPUs | RXTX_Factor | Is_Public |

+--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+--------+--------+

List available networks. Our instance will use int-net (Internal network), while creating the instance we must specify network using the ID instead of name.

# neutron net-list
+--------------------------------------+---------+-------------------------------------------------------+
| id                                   | name    | subnets                                               |
+--------------------------------------+---------+-------------------------------------------------------+

+--------------------------------------+---------+-------------------------------------------------------+

List available security groups.

# nova secgroup-list
+--------------------------------------+---------+------------------------+
| Id                                   | Name    | Description            |
+--------------------------------------+---------+------------------------+
| c88f4002-611e-41dd-af7c-2f7c348dea27 | default | Default security group |
+--------------------------------------+---------+------------------------+

Default security group implements a firewall that blocks remote access to instance, to allow remote access to instance, we need to configure remote access.

The following commands adds rule to default security group, to allow ping and SSH access.

# nova secgroup-add-rule default icmp -1 -1 0.0.0.0/0
+-------------+-----------+---------+-----------+--------------+
| IP Protocol | From Port | To Port | IP Range  | Source Group |
+-------------+-----------+---------+-----------+--------------+
| icmp        | -1        | -1      | 0.0.0.0/0 |              |
+-------------+-----------+---------+-----------+--------------+

# nova secgroup-add-rule default tcp 22 22 0.0.0.0/0
+-------------+-----------+---------+-----------+--------------+
| IP Protocol | From Port | To Port | IP Range  | Source Group |
+-------------+-----------+---------+-----------+--------------+
| tcp         | 22        | 22      | 0.0.0.0/0 |              |
+-------------+-----------+---------+-----------+--------------+

Launch the first instance using the below command, load a variable for network ID.

# INT_NET_ID=`neutron net-list | grep int-net | awk '{ print $2 }'

Replace $INT_NET_ID with ID of internal network.

# nova boot --flavor m1.small --image Fedora-Cloud-Base-22-20150521.x86_64 --nic net-id=$INT_NET_ID --security-group default --key-name my-key MY-Fedora

This is the third part of configuring neutron (Networking) on Ubuntu 14.04, you can go through previous article on Configure Neutron #1 and Configure Neutron #2 in which we have installed and configured Networking components on Controller node and Network Node.

Here, we will be configuring compute node to use neutron.

Prerequisites:

Configure kernel parameters on compute node, edit /etc/sysctl.conf file.

# nano /etc/sysctl.conf

Add the following parameters into the file.

net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter=0
net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter=0
net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables=1
net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables=1

Apply the changes.

# sysctl -p

Install and configure Networking components:

Install the following packages on each and every compute node you have it on OpenStack environment.

# apt-get install neutron-plugin-ml2 neutron-plugin-openvswitch-agent

Edit the /etc/neutron/neutron.conf file.

# nano /etc/neutron/neutron.conf

Modify the below settings and make sure to place a entries in the proper sections. In the case of database section, comment out any connection options as network node does not directly access the database.

[DEFAULT]
...
rpc_backend = rabbit
verbose = True
core_plugin = ml2
service_plugins = router
allow_overlapping_ips = True
auth_strategy = keystone

[database]
...
#connection = sqlite:////var/lib/neutron/neutron.sqlite

##Comment out the above line.

[oslo_messaging_rabbit]
...
rabbit_host = controller
rabbit_userid = openstack
rabbit_password = password

## Replace "password" with the password you chose for the openstack account in RabbitMQ

[keystone_authtoken]
...
auth_uri = http://controller:5000
auth_url = http://controller:35357
auth_plugin = password
project_domain_id = default
user_domain_id = default
project_name = service
username = neutron
password = password

## Replace "password" with the password you chose for neutron user in the identity service

Configure Modular Layer 2 (ML2) plug-in:

Edit the /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini file.

# nano /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini

Modify the below sections.

[ml2]
...
type_drivers = flat,vlan,gre,vxlan
tenant_network_types = gre
mechanism_drivers = openvswitch

[ml2_type_gre]
...
tunnel_id_ranges = 1:1000

[securitygroup]
...
enable_security_group = True
enable_ipset = True
firewall_driver = neutron.agent.linux.iptables_firewall.OVSHybridIptablesFirewallDriver

[ovs]
local_ip = 192.168.12.23

## Tunnel network interface on your Compute Node.

[agent]
tunnel_types = gre

## [ovs] and [agent] stanzas are need to be added extra at the bottom of the file.

Restart the Open vSwitch service.

# service openvswitch-switch restart

Configure Compute node to use Networking:

By default, Compute node uses legacy networking. We must reconfigure Compute to manage networks through Neutron.

Edit the /etc/nova/nova.conf file.

# nano /etc/nova/nova.conf

Modify the below settings and make sure to place a entries in the proper sections. If the sections does not exists, create a sections accordingly.

[DEFAULT]
...
network_api_class = nova.network.neutronv2.api.API
security_group_api = neutron
linuxnet_interface_driver = nova.network.linux_net.LinuxOVSInterfaceDriver
firewall_driver = nova.virt.firewall.NoopFirewallDriver

[neutron]

url = http://controller:9696
auth_strategy = keystone
admin_auth_url = http://controller:35357/v2.0
admin_tenant_name = service
admin_username = neutron
admin_password = password

## Replace "password" with the password you chose for neutron user in the identity service

Restart the compute and Open vSwitch agen on compute node.

# service nova-compute restart
# service neutron-plugin-openvswitch-agent restart

Verify operation:

Load admin credentials on the controller node.

# source admin-openrc.sh

List the agents.

# neutron agent-list
+--------------------------------------+--------------------+---------+-------+----------------+---------------------------+
| id                                   | agent_type         | host    | alive | admin_state_up | binary                    |

The output should have four agents alive on the network node and one agent alive on the compute node.

OpenStack Networking allows you to create or attach interface device to networks, this guide helps you to configure Neutron (Networking) on OpenStack environment. Neutron manages all networking related things that are required for Virtual Networking Infrastructure, it provides the networks, subnets, and router object abstractions.

Install and configure controller node:

Before we configure Neutron service, we must create a database, service, and API endpoint.

Login as the root into MySQL server.

# mysql -u root -p

Create the neutron database.

CREATE DATABASE neutron;

Grant a proper permission to the neutron database.

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON neutron.* TO 'neutron'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON neutron.* TO 'neutron'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

Replace “password” with a suitable password. Exit from MySQL.

Load your admin credential from the environment script.

# source admin-openrc.sh

Create the neutron user for creating service credentials.

# openstack user create --password-prompt neutron
User Password:

Next is to Install and configure Network Node.

This post guides you to configure OpenStack image service, code-named Glance, on the controller node. We will configure glance to store images locally on the controller node. Before going ahead make sure you have configured KeyStone service.

If you have not configured KeyStone yet, you can go through the below two posts.

OpenStack Kilo on Ubuntu 14.04.2- Configure KeyStone #1

OpenStack Kilo on Ubuntu 14.04.2- Configure KeyStone #2

Create a client environment script for admin and demo user, these scripts will help us to load appropriate credential for client operations.

Create the admin-openrc.sh file.

# nano admin-openrc.sh

Paste the following content onto the file.

export OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_ID=default
export OS_USER_DOMAIN_ID=default
export OS_PROJECT_NAME=admin
export OS_TENANT_NAME=admin
export OS_USERNAME=admin
export OS_PASSWORD=password
export OS_AUTH_URL=http://controller:35357/v3

Replace password with the password that you created for admin user in KeyStone #2

Create the demo-openrc.sh file.

# nano demo-openrc.sh

Paste the below content onto the file.

export OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_ID=default
export OS_USER_DOMAIN_ID=default
export OS_PROJECT_NAME=demo
export OS_TENANT_NAME=demo
export OS_USERNAME=demo
export OS_PASSWORD=password
export OS_AUTH_URL=http://controller:5000/v3

Replace password with the password that you created for demo user in KeyStone #2.

Prerequisites:

Login as root into to MySQL database server.

# mysql -u root -p

Create the database for glance.

CREATE DATABASE glance;

Set proper access to the glance database.

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON glance.* TO 'glance'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON glance.* TO 'glance'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

Replace password with suitable password.

Load admin credentials.

# source admin-openrc.sh

Create the glance user.

# openstack user create --password-prompt glance

Populate the glance database.

# su -s /bin/sh -c "glance-manage db_sync" glance

Restart the services.

# service glance-registry restart
# service glance-api restart

Delete the SQLite database file.

# rm -f /var/lib/glance/glance.sqlite

Verify operation:

In this, we will verify the image service by uploading cloud image of Fedora 22 on to our OpenStack environment.

In our client environment script, we will configure Image service client to use API version 2.0:

# echo "export OS_IMAGE_API_VERSION=2" | tee -a admin-openrc.sh demo-openrc.sh

Load admin credentials.

# source admin-openrc.sh

Download Fedora 22 cloud image on /tmp directory.

# cd /tmp

# wget https://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/22/Cloud/x86_64/Images/Fedora-Cloud-Base-22-20150521.x86_64.qcow2

Upload the image.

#  glance image-create --name "Fedora-Cloud-Base-22-20150521.x86_64" --file /tmp/Fedora-Cloud-Base-22-20150521.x86_64.qcow2 --disk-format qcow2 --container-format bare --visibility public --progress
