This directory contains playbooks and scripts for deploying a non-containerized AIS cluster across multiple nodes.
This setup is intended for testing and development only; production deployments should use the k8s deployment.
- Network connectivity from ansible to hosts and between hosts
- GO installed and available in usr/local/go on all hosts
- Root access on each host (for ansible
become)
Modify the host configuration in inventory.yaml. Each host is expected to act as a target node, with an equal number of devices and mountpaths specified. directory specifies the root directory for the location of the mountpaths. The primary hosts section defines the primary host, which will serve as the only proxy for this deployment (and also one target). Each target host will use the proxy on the primary host to self-register as a target node.
All other variables are defined in the vars.yaml file. This includes locations of files on the hosts as well as the primary host IP and port.
Run deploy_multi.sh to run the full deployment. This will first run the setup.yaml playbook to set up the AIS mounthpaths on all targets. Next, the primary proxy and a target will be deployed on the primary host with the deploy_primary.yaml playbook. Finally, any additional targets hosts will be deployed with the deploy_target.yaml playbook.
