Fuel DevOps tools for managing virtual environments

fuel-devops

Fuel-Devops is a sublayer between application and target environment(all of supported by libvirt currently).

This application is used for testing purposes like grouping virtual machines to environments, booting KVM VM's locally from the ISO image and over the network via PXE, creating, snapshotting and resuming back the whole environment in single action, create virtual machines with multiple NICs, multiple hard drives and many other customizations with a few lines of code in system tests.

Installation

The installation procedure can be implemented via PyPI in Python virtual environment (suppose you are using Ubuntu 12.04 or Ubuntu 14.04):

Before using it, please install the following required dependencies:

sudo apt-get install git \
postgresql \
postgresql-server-dev-all \
libyaml-dev \
libffi-dev \
python-dev \
python-libvirt \
python-pip \
qemu-kvm \
qemu-utils \
libvirt-bin \
libvirt-dev \
ubuntu-vm-builder \
bridge-utils

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y

Install packages needed for building python eggs

sudo apt-get install python-virtualenv libpq-dev libgmp-dev

In case you are using Ubuntu 12.04 let’s update pip and virtualenv, otherwise you can skip this step

sudo pip install pip virtualenv --upgrade
hash -r

Create virtualenv for the devops project

virtualenv --system-site-packages <path>/fuel-devops-venv

Note

Activate virtualenv and install devops package using PyPI.

source  <path>/fuel-devops-venv/bin/activate
pip install git+https://github.com/openstack/fuel-devops.git@<version> --upgrade

Configuration

Basically fuel-devops requires that the following system-wide settings are configured:

• Default libvirt storage pool is active (called ‘default’)
• Current user must have permission to run KVM VMs with libvirt
• PostgreSQL server running with appropriate grants and schema for devops
• [Optional] Nested Paging is enabled
• [Optional] Network filter for host bridges should be disabled: http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Net.bridge-nf-call_and_sysctl.conf.

Testing

There are next test targets that can be run to validate the code.
