Jump server Software Requirements:

...

  • Installation of the local controller in the edge location.
  • Installation of Compute cluster to run the workload invoked by the local controller in the edge location.

Host <--- SM comment "Is Jump Host same as local Controller? The high level installation overview never mentions installing jump host" >>>

Creating a Node Inventory File

Preconfiguration for the local controller<--- SM comment "local Controller or jump host? Please use one nomenclature. changing names is confusing" >>>

User required to provide the IPMI information of the edge server they required to connect to the local controller by editing node JSON sample file in the directory icn/deploy/metal3/scripts/nodes.json.sample as below. If you want to increase nodes, just add another array

Local controller Metal3 configuration Reference:       <--- SM comment "Since we are doing a 3 compute node installation; it will be better to include 3 nodes in the json sample file above." >>>
  • node: The array of nodes required to add to local controller
  • name: Name of the Baremetal to be provisioned by Metal3, and this name will be the hostname for the machine, once it is provisioned
  • ipmi_driver_info: IPMI driver info is a json field, currently holds the IPMI information required for Ironic to send the IPMI tool command
    • username: BMC username required to be provided for Ironic
    • password: BMC password required to be provided for Ironic
    • address: BMC server IPMI LAN IP address
  • os: Baremetal machine OS information is a json field, currently holds the image name to be provisioned, username name and password for the login.
    • image_name: images name should be in qcow2 format
    • username: login username for the OS provisioned
    • password: login password for the OS provisioned
