### Script to macro manage cluster of nodes (hypervisors) and the domains

4 |
(virtuals) on them.
|
|
|
5 |
|
|
|
6 |
Used as an extension to virsh, which it calls quite often.
|
|
|
7 |
|
|
|
8 |
All nodes must be able to make an ssh connection to all other nodes using
|
|
|
9 |
public key (no passwords). Note that this includes being able to make an ssh
|
|
|
10 |
connection to itself as, at this time, it simply makes an ssh connection to
|
|
|
11 |
whatever node is defined over.
|
|
|
12 |
|
|
|
13 |
There are two subdirectories, conf/ and var/.
|
|
|
14 |
|
|
|
15 |
conf/ is NOT what you think; the app does not have a static configuration.
|
|
|
16 |
conf/ contains domain (virtual) configurations in an XML format. They are
|
|
|
17 |
acquired using virsh dumpxml.
|
|
|
18 |
|
|
|
19 |
var/ contains YAML representations of Perl hashes which contains information
|
|
|
20 |
about nodes, domains and the relationship between them.

### NOT IMPLEMENTED YET
|

havirt can be installed on any node, or on a completely separate machine. If
|
|
|
25 |
installed on multiple nodes, it can be safely be run simultaneously on multiple
|
|
|
26 |
nodes as file locking is enabled on any code which writes to /var
|
|
|

### Installation
|
| 9 |
rodolico |

|
|
|
30 |
There is no fancy installer. Simply grab the files via subversion.
|
|
|
31 |
|
| 23 |
rodolico |
32 |
svn co http://svn.dailydata.net/svn/havirt/stable /path/to/install
|
|
|
33 |
ln -s /path/to/install/havirt /usr/local/bin/havirt
|

34 |
|
|
|
35 |
Some Perl modules are needed.
|
| 23 |
rodolico |
36 |
- Exporter
|
|
|
37 |
- Getopt::Long
|
|
|
38 |
- version
|
|
|
39 |
- YAML::Tiny
|
|
|
40 |
- Data::Dumper

41 |
|
|
|
42 |
Most may be on your system already, but you can run the following command on
|
|
|
43 |
Debian based systems to add the ones not in the base install.
|
|
|
44 |
|
| 23 |
rodolico |
45 |
apt install -y libdata-dump-perl libyaml-tiny-perl

### Setup
|
| 9 |
rodolico |
48 |
|
|
|
49 |
Ensure all nodes can talk to each other (including themselves) via public
|
|
|
50 |
key encryption (no password). If havirt is on a separate machine, it
|
|
|
51 |
must be able to talk to all nodes.
|
|
|
52 |
|
|
|
53 |
Each should be able to talk to the other. I generally create a
|
|
|
54 |
/root/.ssh/config which contains aliases for simplicity.
|
|
|
55 |
|
|
|
56 |
Once you are sure all of your nodes can talk to each other, run the following
|
|
|
57 |
command for each node.
|
|
|
58 |
|
| 23 |
rodolico |
59 |
havirt node add NAMEOFNODE
|
| 9 |
rodolico |
60 |
|
|
|
61 |
where NAMEOFNODE is accessible either via DNS or an ssh alias.
|
|
|
62 |
|
|
|
63 |
When all nodes are added, you can list them with
|
|
|
64 |
|
| 23 |
rodolico |
65 |
havirt node list -t tsv
|
| 9 |
rodolico |
66 |
|
|
|
67 |
which will dump a tab delimited text file to STDOUT.
|
|
|
68 |
|
|
|
69 |
Now it is time to populate all of the domains currently running
|
|
|
70 |
|
| 23 |
rodolico |
71 |
havirt node scan # scan all nodes for running domains
|
|
|
72 |
havirt domain update # get conf for all domains and store in conf/
|
|
|
73 |
havirt domain list # show all domains
|
| 9 |
rodolico |
74 |
|
| 13 |
rodolico |
75 |
Note: domain list will not show nodes which have no domains on them.
