Overview

This project supports provisioning Vagrant hosts using many combinations of host OSs (CentOS 7, Fedora 21) and OpenDaylight deployment options (RPM directly, Puppet mod, Ansible role, etc).

Goals of the project include:

• Serve as working example documentation for deploying OpenDaylight.
• Give developers quick, easy access to different types of OpenDaylight deployments for debugging.
• Provide a simple, reliable way to get some hands-on time with ODL.

General Dependencies: Vagrant

If you don't have Vagrant installed, head over to the Vagrant Downloads page and grab the latest version for your OS. Fedora/RHEL/CentOS folks need the RPM package, Ubuntu/Debian folks need the DEB package. Note that Vagrant also supports Windows and OSX.

Assuming you're on Fedora/RHEL/CentOS, find the .rpm file you just downloaded and install it:

sudo rpm -i <name of rpm>

Vagrant uses various "providers" for virtualization support. By default, it uses VirtualBox. If you don't have VirtualBox installed, you'll see an error message when you try to vagrant up anything. Install VirtualBox (Fedora/RHEL/CentOS):

sudo yum install -y VirtualBox kmod-VirtualBox

You may need to restart your system, or at least systemctl restart systemd-modules-load.service. If you see Kernel-related errors, try that.

Ansible Deployments

Deploying OpenDaylight using its Ansible role.

Ansible Dependencies: ansible-galaxy

The recommended way to install OpenDaylight's Ansible role, for use by Vagrant's Ansible provisioner, is via the ansible-galaxy tool. It ships with Ansible, so you may already have it installed.

sudo yum install -y ansible

Ansible Dependencies: Roles

After you install the ansible-galaxy tool, point it at the project's requirements.yml file to install ODL's role.

[~/vagrant-opendaylight]$ ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml -p provisioning/roles/

To update the Ansible role to the latest from the project's master branch, add a --force flag.

[~/vagrant-opendaylight]$ ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml -p provisioning/roles/ --force

Puppet Deployments

Deploying OpenDaylight using its Puppet module.

Puppet Dependencies: Gems

Deploying OpenDaylight using Puppet as a Vagrant provisioner requires the puppet and librarian-puppet gems. We use Bundler to make gem management trivial.

[~/vagrant-opendaylight]$ sudo dnf install -y rubygems
[~/vagrant-opendaylight]$ gem install bundler
[~/vagrant-opendaylight]$ bundle install

Puppet Dependencies: Modules

In order to use the ODL Puppet mod as a Vagrant provisioner, you'll of course need to install it. The librarian-puppet gem (install docs above) can make use of our Puppetfile and the dependency declarations of the ODL Puppet mod to trivially install everything we need.

[~/vagrant-opendaylight]$ librarian-puppet install
[~/vagrant-opendaylight]$ ls modules
archive  java  opendaylight  stdlib

librarian-puppet can also handle Puppet module updates.

[~/vagrant-opendaylight]$ librarian-puppet update

Standalone RPM Deployments

Deploying OpenDaylight using its RPM directly, without additional configuration from a config management tool.

Standalone RPM deployments don't require any dependencies.
