Open Stack

Hi Team,

We have deployed 2 node kolla ansible *12.0.0* in order to deploy openstack
*wallaby* release. We have also enabled ironic in order to provision the
bare metal nodes.

On each server we have 3 nics

   - *eno1* - OAM for external connectivity and endpoint's publicURL
   - *eno2* - Mgmt for internal communication between various openstack
   services.
   - *ens2f0* - Data Interface


Corresponding to this we have defined the following fields in globals.yml


   - kolla_base_distro: "centos"
   - kolla_install_type: "source"
   - openstack_release: "wallaby"
   - network_interface: "eno2"                               # MGMT
   interface
   - kolla_external_vip_interface: "eno1"               # OAM Interface
   - kolla_internal_vip_address: "192.168.10.3"    # MGMT Subnet free ip
   - kolla_external_vip_address: "10.0.1.136"       # OAM subnet free IP
   - neutron_external_interface: "ens2f0"             # Data Interface
   - enable_neutron_provider_networks: "yes"

Note: Only relevant fields are being shown in this query

Also, for ironic following fields have been defined in globals.yml

   - enable_ironic: "yes"
   - enable_ironic_neutron_agent: "{{ enable_neutron | bool and
   enable_ironic | bool }}"
   - enable_horizon_ironic: "{{ enable_ironic | bool }}"
   - ironic_dnsmasq_interface: "*ens2f0*"                       # Data
   interface
   - ironic_dnsmasq_dhcp_range: "20.20.20.10,20.20.20.100"
   - ironic_dnsmasq_boot_file: "pxelinux.0"
   - ironic_cleaning_network: "public1"
   - ironic_dnsmasq_default_gateway: "20.20.20.1"


After successful deployment, a flat provider network with the name public1
is being created in openstack using the below commands:


   - openstack network create public1 --provider-network-type flat
   --provider-physical-network physnet1
   - openstack subnet create subnet1 --network public1 --subnet-range
   20.20.20.0/24 --allocation-pool start=20.20.20.10,end=20.20.20.100
   --ip-version=4  --gateway=20.20.20.1 --dhcp


Issue/Queries:


   - Is the configuration done in globals.yml correct or is there anything
   else that needs to be done in order to separate control and data plane
   traffic?


   - Also I have set automated_cleaning as "true" in ironic-conductor
   conatiner settings.But after creating the baremetal node, we run "node
   manage" command which runs successfully. Running "*openstack baremetal
   node provide <node id>"* command powers on the machine, sets the boot
   mode on Network Boot but no DHCP request for that particular mac is
   obtained on the controller. Is there anything I am missing that needs to be
   done in order to make ironic work?

Note: I have also verified that the nic is PXE enabled in system
configuration setting
