# How to install OSM ## Pre-requirements In order to install OSM, you will need, at least, a single server or VM with the following requirements: - RECOMMENDED: 4 CPUs, 16 GB RAM, 80GB disk and a single interface with Internet access - MINIMUM: 2 CPUs, 8 GB RAM, 50GB disk and a single interface with Internet access - Base image: Ubuntu22.04 - [Ubuntu22.04 cloud image (64-bit variant required)](https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/jammy/current/jammy-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk-kvm.img) - [Ubuntu22.04 server image (64-bit variant required)](http://releases.ubuntu.com/22.04/) **Reminder**: Although OSM could work with other base images, the only recommended are the ones above, since these are the images used in our daily tests. In addition, you will need a Virtual Infrastructure Manager available so that OSM can orchestrate workloads on it. The following figure illustrates OSM interaction with VIMs and the VNFs to be deployed there: - OSM communicates with the VIM for the deployment of VNFs. - OSM communicates with the VNFs deployed in a VIM to run day-0, day-1 and day-2 configuration primitives. ![OSM topology](assets/600px-Osmtopology.png) Hence, it is assumed that: - Each VIM has an API endpoint reachable from OSM. - Each VIM has a so-called management network, which provides IP addresses to VNFs. - That management network is reachable from OSM. ## How to install OSM (standard installation) Once you have one host available with the characteristics above, you just need to trigger the OSM installation by: ```bash wget https://osm-download.etsi.org/ftp/osm-15.0-fifteen/install_osm.sh chmod +x install_osm.sh ./install_osm.sh ``` This will install a standalone Kubernetes on a single host, and OSM on top of it. **TIP:** In order to facilitate potential troubleshooting later, it is recommended to save the full log of your installation process: ```bash wget https://osm-download.etsi.org/ftp/osm-15.0-fifteen/install_osm.sh chmod +x install_osm.sh ./install_osm.sh 2>&1 | tee osm_install_log.txt ``` You will be asked if you want to proceed with the installation and configuration of LXD, juju, docker CE and the initialization of a local Kubernetes cluster, as pre-requirements. Please answer `y`. Optionally, you can use the option `--juju --lxd` to install Juju and LXD, which will be required if you want to deploy VNFs that use Execution Environments based on Juju charms. ```bash ./install_osm.sh --juju --lxd ``` Optionally, you can use the option `--k8s_monitor` to install an add-on to monitor the K8s cluster and OSM running on top of it. ```bash ./install_osm.sh --k8s_monitor ``` ### How to install optional components You can include optional components in your installation by adding the following flags: - **Juju** and **LXD**: `--juju --lxd` (install Juju controller, required for VNFs that use Execution Environments based on Juju charms) - **Kubernetes Monitor:** `--k8s_monitor` (install an add-on to monitor the Kubernetes cluster and OSM running on top of it, through prometheus and grafana) - **PLA:** `--pla` (install the PLA module for placement support) - **Old Service Assurance:** `--old-sa` (install old Service Assurance framework with MON and POL; do not install Airflow and Pushgateway)" Example: ```bash ./install_osm.sh --k8s_monitor --pla ``` ### Reference: Other installer options OSM installer includes a larger number of install options. The general usage is the following: ```bash ./install_osm.sh [OPTIONS] ``` **Options:** ```text -y: do not prompt for confirmation, assumes yes -r : use specified repository name for osm packages -R : use specified release for osm binaries (deb packages, lxd images, ...) -u : use specified repository url for osm packages -k : use specified repository public key url --showopts: print chosen options and exit (only for debugging) -D use local devops installation path -h / --help: prints help ``` ## How to upgrade components from daily images in standard deployment **Upgrading a specific OSM component without upgrading the others accordingly may lead to potential inconsistencies.** Unless you are really sure about what you are doing, please use this procedure with caution. One of the commonest reasons for this type of upgrade is using your own cloned repo of a module for development purposes. ### Upgrading RO in K8s This involves upgrading (`ro`): ```bash git clone https://osm.etsi.org/gerrit/osm/RO #you can then work in the cloned repo, apply patches with git pull, etc. docker build RO -f RO/Dockerfile.local -t opensourcemano/ro:develop --no-cache kubectl -n osm patch deployment ro --patch '{"spec": {"template": {"spec": {"containers": [{"name": "ro", "image": "opensourcemano/ro:develop"}]}}}}' kubectl -n osm scale deployment ro --replicas=0 kubectl -n osm scale deployment ro --replicas=1 # In order to make this change persistent after reboots, # you will have to update the file /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/ro.yaml to reflect the change # in the docker image, for instance: # sudo sed -i "s/opensourcemano\/ro:.*/opensourcemano\/ro:develop/g" /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/ro.yaml # kubectl -n osm apply -f /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/ro.yaml ``` ### Upgrading LCM in K8s ```bash git clone https://osm.etsi.org/gerrit/osm/LCM #you can then work in the cloned repo, apply patches with git pull, etc. docker build LCM -f LCM/Dockerfile.local -t opensourcemano/lcm:develop --no-cache kubectl -n osm patch deployment lcm --patch '{"spec": {"template": {"spec": {"containers": [{"name": "lcm", "image": "opensourcemano/lcm:develop"}]}}}}' kubectl -n osm scale deployment lcm --replicas=0 kubectl -n osm scale deployment lcm --replicas=1 # In order to make this change persistent after reboots, # you will have to update the file /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/lcm.yaml to reflect the change # in the docker image, for instance: # sudo sed -i "s/opensourcemano\/lcm:.*/opensourcemano\/lcm:develop/g" /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/lcm.yaml # kubectl -n osm apply -f /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/lcm.yaml ``` ### Upgrading MON in K8s ```bash git clone https://osm.etsi.org/gerrit/osm/MON #you can then work in the cloned repo, apply patches with git pull, etc. docker build MON -f MON/docker/Dockerfile -t opensourcemano/mon:develop --no-cache kubectl -n osm patch deployment mon --patch '{"spec": {"template": {"spec": {"containers": [{"name": "mon", "image": "opensourcemano/mon:develop"}]}}}}' kubectl -n osm scale deployment mon --replicas=0 kubectl -n osm scale deployment mon --replicas=1 # In order to make this change persistent after reboots, # you will have to update the file /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/mon.yaml to reflect the change # in the docker image, for instance: # sudo sed -i "s/opensourcemano\/mon:.*/opensourcemano\/mon:develop/g" /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/mon.yaml # kubectl -n osm apply -f /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/mon.yaml ``` ### Upgrading POL in K8s ```bash git clone https://osm.etsi.org/gerrit/osm/POL #you can then work in the cloned repo, apply patches with git pull, etc. docker build POL -f POL/docker/Dockerfile -t opensourcemano/pol:develop --no-cache kubectl -n osm patch deployment pol --patch '{"spec": {"template": {"spec": {"containers": [{"name": "pol", "image": "opensourcemano/pol:develop"}]}}}}' kubectl -n osm scale deployment pol --replicas=0 kubectl -n osm scale deployment pol --replicas=1 # In order to make this change persistent after reboots, # you will have to update the file /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/pol.yaml to reflect the change # in the docker image, for instance: # sudo sed -i "s/opensourcemano\/pol:.*/opensourcemano\/pol:develop/g" /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/pol.yaml # kubectl -n osm apply -f /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/pol.yaml ``` ### Upgrading NBI in K8s ```bash git clone https://osm.etsi.org/gerrit/osm/NBI #you can then work in the cloned repo, apply patches with git pull, etc. docker build NBI -f NBI/Dockerfile.local -t opensourcemano/nbi:develop --no-cache kubectl -n osm patch deployment nbi --patch '{"spec": {"template": {"spec": {"containers": [{"name": "nbi", "image": "opensourcemano/nbi:develop"}]}}}}' kubectl -n osm scale deployment nbi --replicas=0 kubectl -n osm scale deployment nbi --replicas=1 # In order to make this change persistent after reboots, # you will have to update the file /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/nbi.yaml to reflect the change # in the docker image, for instance: # sudo sed -i "s/opensourcemano\/nbi:.*/opensourcemano\/nbi:develop/g" /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/nbi.yaml # kubectl -n osm apply -f /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/nbi.yaml ``` ### Upgrading Next Generation UI in K8s ```bash git clone https://osm.etsi.org/gerrit/osm/NG-UI #you can then work in the cloned repo, apply patches with git pull, etc. docker build NG-UI -f NG-UI/docker/Dockerfile -t opensourcemano/ng-ui:develop --no-cache kubectl -n osm patch deployment ng-ui --patch '{"spec": {"template": {"spec": {"containers": [{"name": "ng-ui", "image": "opensourcemano/ng-ui:develop"}]}}}}' kubectl -n osm scale deployment ng-ui --replicas=0 kubectl -n osm scale deployment ng-ui --replicas=1 # In order to make this change persistent after reboots, # you will have to update the file /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/ng-ui.yaml to reflect the change # in the docker image, for instance: # sudo sed -i "s/opensourcemano\/ng-ui:.*/opensourcemano\/ng-ui:develop/g" /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/ng-ui.yaml # kubectl -n osm apply -f /etc/osm/docker/osm_pods/ng-ui.yaml ``` ## How to check OSM installation (standard installation) After some time, you will get a fresh OSM installation with its latest, pre-built docker images which are built daily. You can access to the UI in the following URL (user:`admin`, password: `admin`): [http://1.2.3.4](http://1.2.3.4/), replacing 1.2.3.4 by the IP address of your host. ![OSM home](assets/600px-Osm_ng_ui_login.png) ![OSM installation result](assets/600px-Osm_ng_ui.png) As a result of the installation, different K8s objects (deployments, statefulsets, etc.) created in the host. You can check the status by running the following commands: ```bash kubectl get all -n osm ``` To check the logs of any container: ```bash kubectl logs -n osm deployments/lcm # for LCM kubectl logs -n osm deployments/ng-ui # for NG-UI kubectl logs -n osm deployments/mon # for MON kubectl logs -n osm deployments/nbi # for NBI kubectl logs -n osm deployments/pol # for POL kubectl logs -n osm deployments/ro # for RO kubectl logs -n osm deployments/keystone # for Keystone kubectl logs -n osm deployments/grafana # for Grafana kubectl logs -n osm statefulset/kafka # for Kafka kubectl logs -n osm statefulset/mongodb-k8s # for MongoDB kubectl logs -n osm statefulset/mysql # for Mysql kubectl logs -n osm statefulset/prometheus # for Prometheus kubectl logs -n osm statefulset/zookeeper # for Zookeeper ``` Finally, if you used the option `--k8s_monitor` to install an add-on to monitor the K8s cluster and OSM, you can check the status in this way. ```bash kubectl get all -n monitoring ``` OSM client, a python-based CLI for OSM, will be available as well in the host machine. Via the OSM client, you can manage descriptors, NS and VIM complete lifecycle. ```bash osm --help ``` ## Explanation: What the OSM client is The **OSM Client** is a client library and a command-line tool (based on Python) to operate OSM, which accesses OSM's Northbound Interface (NBI) and lets you manage descriptors, VIMs, Network Services, Slices, etc. along with their whole lifecycle. In other words, the OSM Client is a sort of Swiss knife that provides a convenient access to all the functionality that OSM's NBI offers. Although the OSM Client is always available in the host machine after installation, it is sometimes convenient installing an OSM Client in another location, different from the OSM host, so that the access to the OSM services does not require OS-level/SSH credentials. Thus, in those cases where you have an OSM already installed in a remote server, you can still operate it from your local computer using the OSM Client. There are two methods of installing the OSM client: via a Snap, or a Debian Package. ### How to install standalone OSM Client using snaps On systems that support snaps, you can install the OSM client with the following command: ```bash sudo snap install osmclient --channel 14.0/stable ``` There are tracks available for all releases. Omitting the channel will use the latest stable release version. ### How to install standalone OSM Client using debian packages In order to install the OSM Client in your local Linux machine, you should follow this procedure: ```bash # Clean the previous repos that might exist sudo sed -i "/osm-download.etsi.org/d" /etc/apt/sources.list wget -qO - https://osm-download.etsi.org/repository/osm/debian/ReleaseFIFTEEN/OSM%20ETSI%20Release%20Key.gpg | sudo apt-key add - sudo add-apt-repository -y "deb [arch=amd64] https://osm-download.etsi.org/repository/osm/debian/ReleaseFIFTEEN stable devops IM osmclient" sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install -y python3-pip sudo apt-get install -y python3-osm-im python3-osmclient python3 -m pip install -r /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/osm_im/requirements.txt python3 -m pip install -r /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/osmclient/requirements.txt ``` ### Usage Once installed, you can type `osm` to see a list of commands. Since we are installing the OSM Client in a host different from OSM's at a minimum you will need to specify the OSM host, either via an environment variable or via the osm command line. For instance, you can set your client to access an OSM host running at `10.80.80.5` by using: ```bash export OSM_HOSTNAME="10.80.80.5" ``` For additional options, see `osm --help` for more info, and check our OSM client reference guide [here](10-osm-client-commands-reference.md) ## Reference. Helm-based OSM installation Since Release FOURTEEN, the deployment of OSM services (LCM, RO, NBI, NG-UI, etc.) in the community installer is done with a Helm chart. When OSM is installed, behind the scenes the following steps are done: - Installation of local LXD server (required for LXD-based proxy charms) - Installation of Docker CE - Installation and initialization of a local Kubernetes cluster, including a CNI (Flannel), container storage (OpenEBS) and a Load Balancer (MetalLB) - Installation of Juju client - Bootstraping of juju controller to allow the deployment of Execution Environments in local LXD server and local Kubernetes cluster - Deployment of OSM - Deployment of Mongo DB charm with juju - Deployment of OSM services with the OSM Helm Chart, which includes the following components: - NBI - LCM - RO - NG-UI - MON - Webhook translator - Other (Mysql, Keystone, Zookeeper, Kafka, Prometheus, Grafana) - Deployment of NG-SA (new Service Assurance), which includes Airflow, Prometheus Alert Manager and Prometheus Pushgateway Helm Charts - Installation of OSM client Once OSM is installed, the following helm releases can be seen in namespace `osm`: ```bash $ helm -n osm ls NAME NAMESPACE REVISION UPDATED STATUS CHART APP VERSION airflow osm 1 2023-06-07 15:08:48.613039036 +0000 UTC deployed airflow-1.9.0 2.5.3 alertmanager osm 1 2023-06-07 15:10:23.448079581 +0000 UTC deployed alertmanager-0.22.0 v0.24.0 osm osm 1 2023-06-07 15:08:43.421836769 +0000 UTC deployed osm-0.0.1 14 pushgateway osm 1 2023-06-07 15:10:19.507304535 +0000 UTC deployed prometheus-pushgateway-1.18.2 1.4.2 ``` The helm release `osm` corresponds to the OSM Helm chart. And the following pods can be seen in `osm` namespace: ```bash $ kubectl -n osm get pods NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE airflow-postgresql-0 1/1 Running 2 (2d20h ago) 5d22h airflow-redis-0 1/1 Running 1 (2d20h ago) 5d22h airflow-scheduler-5f7dbdc4f5-54x9c 2/2 Running 4 (2d20h ago) 5d22h airflow-statsd-d8c8f886c-vt7xq 1/1 Running 4 (2d20h ago) 5d22h airflow-triggerer-6668bd965c-n6snh 2/2 Running 3 (2d20h ago) 5d22h airflow-webserver-5fb957dcf7-bcgzw 1/1 Running 1 (2d20h ago) 5d22h airflow-worker-0 2/2 Running 2 (2d20h ago) 5d22h alertmanager-0 1/1 Running 6 (2d20h ago) 5d22h grafana-69c9c55dfb-jtwfl 2/2 Running 2 (2d20h ago) 5d22h kafka-0 1/1 Running 1 (2d20h ago) 5d22h keystone-7dbf4b7796-rqwg4 1/1 Running 1 (2d20h ago) 5d22h lcm-6d97b88675-4m77j 1/1 Running 2 (2d20h ago) 5d22h modeloperator-7dd8bf6c79-wx49m 1/1 Running 1 (2d20h ago) 5d22h mon-ccb965d54-drvmr 1/1 Running 1 (2d20h ago) 5d22h mongodb-k8s-0 1/1 Running 3 (2d20h ago) 5d22h mongodb-k8s-operator-0 1/1 Running 1 (2d20h ago) 3d11h mysql-0 1/1 Running 1 (2d20h ago) 5d22h nbi-64b4f6ffd9-jtbf5 1/1 Running 5 (2d20h ago) 5d22h ngui-78d9bd66dc-xbff6 1/1 Running 3 (2d19h ago) 5d22h prometheus-0 2/2 Running 4 (2d20h ago) 5d22h pushgateway-prometheus-pushgateway-6f9dc6cb4d-4sp4x 1/1 Running 1 (2d20h ago) 5d22h ro-86cf9d4b55-z6ls7 1/1 Running 5 (2d20h ago) 5d22h webhook-translator-57b75fc797-j9s7w 1/1 Running 1 (2d20h ago) 5d22h zookeeper-0 1/1 Running 1 (2d20h ago) 5d22h ``` ## How to install OSM using OSM helm chart Assuming that you have a Kubernetes cluster, and you have bootstrapped a Juju controller there, it is possible to deploy OSM on top of that cluster. ### Deploy MongoDB using helm chart The following instructions assume that helm is installed and default storage class is available in kubernetes cluster. ```bash git clone "https://osm.etsi.org/gerrit/osm/devops" cd devops # Optionally check out a specific version # DESIRED_OSM_VERSION="15.0.0" # git checkout $DESIRED_OSM_VERSION MONGODB_HELM_VERSION="13.9.4" helm repo add bitnami https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami helm repo update # Check that there are no errors and deploy helm template mongodb-k8s bitnami/mongodb -n osm -f installers/helm/values/mongodb-values.yaml --version ${MONGODB_HELM_VERSION} # install mongodb helm install mongodb-k8s bitnami/mongodb -n osm --create-namespace -f installers/helm/values/mongodb-values.yaml --version ${MONGODB_HELM_VERSION} ``` ### Deploy Cert-manager ```bash CERTMANAGER_VERSION="v1.9.1" helm repo add jetstack https://charts.jetstack.io helm repo update helm install cert-manager --create-namespace --namespace cert-manager jetstack/cert-manager \ --version ${CERTMANAGER_VERSION} --set installCRDs=true --set prometheus.enabled=false \ --set clusterResourceNamespace=osm \ --set extraArgs="{--enable-certificate-owner-ref=true}" ``` ### Deploy OSM helm chart Get Juju host, secret, public key and CA certificate: ```bash function parse_juju_password { [ -z "${DEBUG_INSTALL}" ] || DEBUG beginning of function password_file="${HOME}/.local/share/juju/accounts.yaml" local controller_name=$1 local s='[[:space:]]*' w='[a-zA-Z0-9_-]*' fs=$(echo @|tr @ '\034') sed -ne "s|^\($s\):|\1|" \ -e "s|^\($s\)\($w\)$s:$s[\"']\(.*\)[\"']$s\$|\1$fs\2$fs\3|p" \ -e "s|^\($s\)\($w\)$s:$s\(.*\)$s\$|\1$fs\2$fs\3|p" $password_file | awk -F$fs -v controller=$controller_name '{ indent = length($1)/2; vname[indent] = $2; for (i in vname) {if (i > indent) {delete vname[i]}} if (length($3) > 0) { vn=""; for (i=0; i osm-values.yaml vca: pubkey: \"${OSM_VCA_PUBKEY}\" EOF" # Customize your own helm options (--set ...)

All pods should have started properly ```bash helm -n osm ls kubectl -n osm get pods ``` ## Other installation methods The following installation methods are captured here as a reference. Since Release FIFTEEN, they have not been tested and they might now work. Specifically, in the case of the Charmed OSM, the latest supported version is Release FOURTEEN. ### How to install Charmed OSM __Note: The latest supported version of Charmed OSM is Release FOURTEEN.__ #### Standalone ![OSM Docker containers](assets/800px-OSM_charmed_standalone.png) ```bash wget https://osm-download.etsi.org/ftp/osm-14.0-fourteen/install_osm.sh chmod +x install_osm.sh ./install_osm.sh --charmed ``` This will install OSM on [microk8s](https://microk8s.io/) using Charms. #### How to install Charmed OSM using external infraestructure For the installation using external components the following parameters can be added: ```bash wget https://osm-download.etsi.org/ftp/osm-14.0-fourteen/install_osm.sh chmod +x install_osm.sh ./install_osm.sh --charmed --k8s ~/.kube/config --vca --lxd --lxd-cred ``` The values for the parameters are the following: - `k8s`: This will be the path of the kubeconfig file of your external Kubernetes. - `vca`: This will be the name of the controller already added to your Juju CLI. - `lxd`: This will be the path to the `cloud.yaml` file of your external LXD Cluster. - `lxd-cred`: This will be the path to the `credential.yaml` file of your external LXD Cluster. For more information on the LXD `cloud.yaml` and `credential.yaml` files consult [here](16-lxd-cluster.md) #### How to configure needed environment variables in Charmed OSM Once the installation is over, follow these instructions to configure the environments variables needed by the osmclient: ```bash NBI_IP=$(microk8s.kubectl describe -n osm ingress | grep -E "nbi.*\.io" | xargs) export OSM_HOSTNAME=$NBI_IP NBI_PASSWORD=$(juju config -m osm keystone admin-password) export OSM_PASSWORD=$NBI_PASSWORD ``` To have the osm client always available include it in your `.bashrc`: ```bash NBI_IP=$(microk8s.kubectl describe -n osm ingress | grep -E "nbi.*\.io" | xargs) echo "export OSM_HOSTNAME=$NBI_IP" >> ~/.bashrc NBI_PASSWORD=$(juju config -m osm keystone admin-password) echo "export OSM_PASSWORD=$NBI_PASSWORD" >> ~/.bashrc ``` #### How to retrieve login usernames and passwords in Charmed OSM The following instructions show how to retrieve usernames and passwords of OSM modules in Charmed installations. ##### OSM UI The following commands return the username and password for logging into OSM UI as administrator: ```bash juju config -m osm keystone admin-username juju config -m osm keystone admin-password ``` If you also need the exposed IP address for the UI, you can issue the following command: ```bash microk8s.kubectl describe -n osm ingress | grep -E "ui.*\.io" | xargs ``` ##### Grafana The following commands return the username and password for logging into Grafana dashboard: ```bash juju config -m osm mon grafana-user juju config -m osm mon grafana-password ``` ##### Prometheus The following commands return the username and password for logging into Prometheus dashboard: ```bash juju config -m osm prometheus web_config_username juju config -m osm prometheus web_config_password ``` ##### Databases **Disclaimer**: manual access to the databases is usually not required and we strongly suggest not to perform operations on them. However, in case the is a particular reason to access and/or manually modify them, here you can find the steps to retrieve the login data for Keystone and MariaDB. ###### Keystone The following commands return the username and password for logging into Keystone: ```bash juju config -m osm keystone admin-username juju config -m osm keystone admin-password juju config -m osm keystone keystone-db-password juju config -m osm keystone service-password ``` ###### MariaDB The following commands return the username and password for logging into MariaDB: ```bash juju config -m osm mariadb root_password juju config -m osm mariadb password ``` #### Scaling OSM Components ##### How to scale Charmed OSM components Scaling or replicating the amount of containers each OSM component has can help both with distributing the workloads (in the case of some components) and also with high availability in case of one of the replicas failing. For the High Availability scenario Charms will automatically apply anti-affinity rules to distribute the component pods between different Kubernetes worker nodes. Therefore for _real_ High Availability a Kubernetes with multiple Worker Nodes will be needed. To scale a charm the following command needs to be executed: ```bash juju scale-application lcm-k8s 3 # 3 being the amount of replicas ``` If the application is already scaled to the number stated in the scale-application command nothing will change. If the number is lower, the application will scale down. ##### How to scale Charmed OSM VCA For more detailed information about setting up a highly available controller please consult the official [documentation](https://juju.is/docs/controller-high-availability). Nevertheless, one way of setting up a manual HA Juju Controller which will act as VCA will be demonstrated. First of all, the set up of 3 machines with the latest LTS of Ubuntu and at least 4GB of RAM will be needed. The machine from which the controller will be created will need SSH access to the previously mentioned 3 machines. Afterwards, the manual cloud will be added, executing the first command and following the steps shown in the screenshot. ```bash juju add-cloud ``` ![add_manual_cloud](assets/800px_add_manual_cloud.png) Once the add-cloud command is finished. The following commands will be executed to create the controller, add the remaining machines and enable HA. ```bash juju bootstrap my-manual manual-controller juju switch controller juju add-machine ssh:ubuntu@ juju add-machine ssh:ubuntu@ juju enable-ha --to 1,2 ``` Once the juju status shows all machines in a “started” state, the HA controller is initialized. To install Charmed OSM with the HA controller the following argument will be passed: ```bash ./install_osm.sh --charmed --vca manual-controller ``` #### How to use external DBs with Charmed OSM Charmed OSM supports the usage of external DBs. For this purpose, relations to the DBs should be removed: ```bash juju remove-relation nbi mongodb-k8s juju remove-relation lcm mongodb-k8s juju remove-relation ro mongodb-k8s juju remove-relation mon mongodb-k8s juju remove-relation pol mariadb-k8s juju remove-relation pol mongodb-k8s juju remove-relation pla mongodb-k8s juju remove-relation keystone mariadb-k8s juju remove-application mongodb-k8s juju remove-application mariadb-k8s ``` Now, add the configuration to access the external DBs: ```bash juju config nbi mongodb_uri="" juju config lcm mongodb_uri="" juju config ro mongodb_uri="" juju config mon mongodb_uri="" juju config pol mysql_uri="" juju config pol mongodb_uri="" juju config pla mongodb_uri="" juju config keystone mysql_host="" juju config keystone mysql_port="" juju config keystone mysql_root_password="" ``` ### How to install OSM in a remote OpenStack infrastructure OSM could be installed to a remote OpenStack infrastructure from the OSM standard installer. It is based on Ansible and it takes care of configuring the OpenStack infrastructure before deploying a VM with OSM. The Ansible playbook performs the following steps: 1. Creation of a new VM flavour (4 CPUs, 8 GB RAM, 40 GB disk) 2. Download of Ubuntu 20.04 image and upload it to OpenStack Glance 3. Generation of a new SSH private and public key pair 4. Setup of a new security group to allow external SSH and HTTP access 5. Deployment of a clean Ubuntu 20.04 VM and installation of OSM to it **Important note:** The OpenStack user needs Admin rights or similar to perform those operations. The installation can be performed with the following command: ```bash wget https://osm-download.etsi.org/ftp/osm-15.0-fifteen/install_osm.sh chmod +x install_osm.sh ./install_osm.sh -O -N [--volume] [OSM installer options] ``` The options `-O` and `-N` are mandatory. The `-O` accepts both a path to an OpenStack openrc file or a cloud name. If a cloud name is used, the clouds.yaml file should be under `~/.config/openstack/` or `/etc/openstack/`. More information about the `clouds.yaml` file can be found [here](https://docs.openstack.org/python-openstackclient/latest/configuration/index.html) The `-N` requires an external network name or ID. This is going to be the OpenStack network where the OSM VM is going to be attached. The `--volume` option is used to instruct OpenStack to create an external volume attached to the VM instead of using a local one. This may be suitable for production environments. It requires OpenStack Cinder configured on the OpenStack infrastructure. Some OSM installer options are supported, in particular the following: `-r -k -u -R -t`. Other options will be supported in the future.
