Swift, Keystone, etc.

Sample Pillars
==============

Simplest Horizon setup:

.. code-block:: yaml

    horizon:
      server:
        enabled: true
        secret_key: secret
        host:
          name: cloud.lab.cz
        cache:
          engine: 'memcached'
          host: '127.0.0.1'
          port: 11211
          prefix: 'CACHE_HORIZON'
        api_versions:
          identity: 2
        identity:
          engine: 'keystone'
          host: '127.0.0.1'
          port: 5000
        mail:
          host: '127.0.0.1'

Multidomain setup for Horizon:

.. code-block:: yaml

    horizon:
      server:
        enabled: true
        default_domain: MYDOMAIN
        multidomain: True

Simple branded Horizon:

.. code-block:: yaml

    horizon:
      server:
        enabled: true
        branding: 'OpenStack Company Dashboard'
        default_dashboard: 'admin'
        help_url: 'http://doc.domain.com'

Dashboard settings with HORIZON_CONFIG dictionary:

.. code-block:: yaml

    horizon:
      server:
        enabled: true
        horizon_config:
          user_home: "openstack_dashboard.views.get_user_home"
          ajax_queue_limit: 10
          auto_fade_alerts:
            delay: 3000
            fade_duration: 1500
            types:
              - alert-success
              - alert-info

            help_text: "Password must be between 8 and 18 characters."
            password_autocomplete: "off"

Horizon with policy files metadata. With source mine you can obtain real
time policy file state from targeted node (OpenStack control node),
provided you have policy file published to specified grain key. Source
file will obtain static policy definition from formula files directory.

.. code-block:: yaml

    horizon:
      server:
        enabled: true
        policy:
          identity:
            source: mine
            host: ctl01.my-domain.local
            name: keystone_policy.json

Images upload mode:
Horizon allows to use different strategies when uploading images to glance that are
controlled by `horizon:server:images_upload_mode` pillar, possible options are
direct, ligacy, off. When `direct` mode is used CORS have to be enabled on glance
side, and client should use modern browser.

.. code-block:: yaml

    horizon:
      server:
        images_upload_mode: "direct"

Images allow location:
If set to True, this setting allows users to specify an image location (URL) as the image source
when creating or updating images. Depending on the Glance version, the ability to set an image
location is controlled by policies and/or the Glance configuration. Therefore IMAGES_ALLOW_LOCATION
should only be set to True if Glance is configured to allow specifying a location.

.. code-block:: yaml

    horizon:
      server:
        images_allow_location: True

Custom django settings.
Django has a tonn of usefull settings that might be tuned for particular use case.
Cover them all in templated manner is not possible. This sections shows how to
configure custom django setting via horizon metadata.

.. code-block:: yaml

    horizon:
      server:
        django_settings:
          CUSTOM_DJANGO_OPTION:
            enabled: true
            value: 'value'

hange default options using configmap template settings
========================================================

.. code-block:: yaml

    horizon:
      server:
        configmap:
          API_RESULT_LIMIT: 1000
          API_RESULT_PAGE_SIZE: 20

Upgrades
========

Each openstack formula provide set of phases (logical bloks) that will help to
build flexible upgrade orchestration logic for particular components. The list
of phases and theirs descriptions are listed in table below:

+-------------------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
| State                         | Description                                          |
+===============================+======================================================+
| <app>.upgrade.service_running | Ensure that all services for particular application  |
|                               | are enabled for autostart and running                |
+-------------------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
| <app>.upgrade.service_stopped | Ensure that all services for particular application  |
|                               | disabled for autostart and dead                      |
+-------------------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
| <app>.upgrade.pkgs_latest     | Ensure that packages used by particular application  |
|                               | are installed to latest available version.           |
|                               | This will not upgrade data plane packages like qemu  |
|                               | and openvswitch as usually minimal required version  |
|                               | in openstack services is really old. The data plane  |
|                               | packages should be upgraded separately by `apt-get   |
|                               | upgrade` or `apt-get dist-upgrade`                   |
|                               | Applying this state will not autostart service.      |
+-------------------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
| <app>.upgrade.render_config   | Ensure configuration is rendered actual version.     +
+-------------------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
| <app>.upgrade.pre             | We assume this state is applied on all nodes in the  |
|                               | cloud before running upgrade.                        |
|                               | Only non destructive actions will be applied during  |
|                               | this phase. Perform service built in service check   |
|                               | like (keystone-manage doctor and nova-status upgrade)|
+-------------------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
| <app>.upgrade.upgrade.pre     | Mostly applicable for data plane nodes. During this  |
|                               | phase resources will be gracefully removed from      |
|                               | current node if it is allowed. Services for upgraded |
|                               | application will be set to admin disabled state to   |
|                               | make sure node will not participate in resources     |
|                               | scheduling. For example on gtw nodes this will set   |
|                               | all agents to admin disable state and will move all  |
|                               | routers to other agents.                             |
+-------------------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
| <app>.upgrade.upgrade         | This state will basically upgrade application on     |
|                               | particular target. Stop services, render             |
|                               | configuration, install new packages, run offline     |
|                               | dbsync (for ctl), start services. Data plane should  |
|                               | not be affected, only OpenStack python services.     |
+-------------------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
| <app>.upgrade.upgrade.post    | Add services back to scheduling.                     |
+-------------------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
| <app>.upgrade.post            | This phase should be launched only when upgrade of   |
|                               | the cloud is completed. Cleanup temporary files,     |
|                               | perform other post upgrade tasks.                    |
+-------------------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
| <app>.upgrade.verify          | Here we will do basic health checks (API CRUD        |
|                               | operations, verify do not have dead network          |
|                               | agents/compute services)                             |
