CloudStack Ansible Role
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA256
Hi
Paul Angus aleady did some efforts of covering installation of
CloudStack using Ansible in the docs
http://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/en/master/ansible.html Thanks!
But there are some issues with styling, it has some parts in it which
are deprecated and the doc might not be the best place for pasting a
"playbook" because users have to copy and paste it.
I thought it makes perfectly sense to create a complete, best practice,
fully tested Ansible role for installing CloudStack.
I created the skeleton in my GitHub account
https://github.com/resmg/ansible-role-cloudstack.
Role features:
- --------------
- - No hard coupled dependency to other roles (DB installation will be
optional opt-out to let users use their special roles for galera
clusters and so forth)
- - Install and upgrade CloudStack environments(ACS management, DB, KVM
hosts, XEN hosts, ...)
- - Fully tested
- - Debian, Ubuntu and CentOS
- - Apache License (of course)
Goals:
- ------
The role can be used in production for managing CloudStack installation
as well as for testing installations and upgrades.
You will also be able to create docker boxes with help of Ansible's
docker module and this role.
Further in Ansible 2.0, there are already 16 Ansible CloudStack modules
for accessing the API. So a fully configured CloudStack environment just
using Ansible is not far away. This would let us to make deep
integration testing just a command and few playbooks away.
Further:
- --------
It would be nice if this role would be under the "apache" GitHub
namespace to be able to also put it under the "apache" namespace in
https://galaxy.ansible.com/ (role index). But we will look into this,
when it is ready.
Yours
René

You (rene) Milamber and Paul, should be able to get something really nice here.

Hello,
Great idea. I can help.
I already created a playbook for CS+Ubuntu+KVM
https://github.com/milamberspace/ansible-cloudstack-ubuntu-aio
Some parts can be got from this playbook.

The project would just need to agree to take this on and then jump
through the paperwork hoops, shouldn't be a big deal.
