deploy — Deploy Image to OpenStack Cloud

Synopsis

machinery deploy NAME -c CONFIG_FILE | --cloud-config=CONFIG_FILE [-i IMAGE_DIR | --image-dir=IMAGE_DIR] [-n CLOUD_IMAGE_NAME | --cloud-image-name=CLOUD_IMAGE_NAME] [-s | --insecure ]

machinery help [deploy]

Description

The deploy command builds and deploys an image to an OpenStack cloud. This command is particularly useful for testing, debugging, or validation.

NOTE: Set Password for Unattended Work

Machinery asks for a password when sourcing the configuration file. This interrupts the work flow and the user has to enter this password. If you prefer to leave it uninterrupted and unattented, remove the following line in your cloud configuration file (see the -c option):

read -s OS_PASSWORD_INPUT

and set the password in the OS_PASSWORD variable:

export OS_PASSWORD=YOUR_PASSWORD

Arguments

• NAME (required): Name of the system description.

Options

• -c CONFIG_FILE, --cloud-config=CONFIG_FILE (required): Path to file where the cloud config (openrc.sh) is located. The configuration file is sourced by Machinery.

• -i IMAGE_DIR, --image-dir=IMAGE_DIR (optional): Image file under specific path.

• -n CLOUD_IMAGE_NAME, --cloud-image-name=CLOUD_IMAGE_NAME (required): Name of the image in the cloud.

• -s, --insecure (optional): Allow to make "insecure" HTTPS requests, without checking the SSL certificate when uploading to the cloud.

Prerequisites

• The deploy command requires the packages kiwi for building the image and python-glanceclient for uploading the image to the cloud.

Supported Architectures

Machinery only supports deploying x86_64 images on x86_64 systems.

Examples

• Build an image under the system description named jeos. Deploy it to the OpenStack cloud name tux-cloud by using the configuration file openrc.sh in directory tux:

  $ machinery deploy jeos -n tux-cloud -c tux/openrc.sh
