OpenContrail Formula
====================

Contrail Controller is an open, standards-based software solution that
delivers network virtualization and service automation for federated cloud
networks. It provides self-service provisioning, improves network
troubleshooting and diagnostics, and enables service chaining for dynamic
application environments across enterprise virtual private cloud (VPC),
managed Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), and Networks Functions
Virtualization (NFV) use cases.


Package source
==============

Formula support OpenContrail as well as Juniper Contrail package repository in the backend.

Differences withing the configuration and state run are controlled by
``opencontrail.common.vendor: [opencontrail|juniper]`` pillar attribute.

Default value is set to ``opencontrail``.

Juniper releases tested with this formula:
 - 3.0.2.x

To use Juniper Contrail repository as a source of packages override pillar as in this example:

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      common:
        vendor: juniper


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

Controller nodes
----------------

There are several scenarios for OpenContrail control plane.

All-in-one single
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Config, control, analytics, database, web -- altogether on one node.

Set up metadata secret for the Vrouter
--------------------------------------

In order to get cloud-init within the instance to properly fetch
instance metadata, metadata_proxy_secret in the Vrouter agent config
should match the value in nova.conf. The administrator should define
it in the pillar:

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:

              tenant: admin


Keystone v3
-----------

To enable support for keystone v3 in opencontrail, there must be defined
version for config and web role.

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      config:
        version: 2.2
        enabled: true
        ...

          (optional) ca_cert_file: /etc/contrail/ca-cert.pem

Kubernetes support
------------------

Kubernetes vrouter nodes

Vrouter configuration on a kubernetes node(s)

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      ...
      compute:
        engine: kubernetes
      ...

vRouter with separated control plane

Separate XMPP traffic from dataplane interface.

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      compute:
        bind:
          address: 172.16.0.50
      ...

Override RPF default in Contrail API
------------------------------------

From MCP1.1 with OpenContrail >= 3.1.1 you can override RPF default for newly
created virtual networks. This can be useful for usecases like running
Calico and K8S in overlay. The `override_rpf_default_by` has valid values
`disable`, `enable`. If not defined, the configuration fallbacks to Contrail
default - currently `enable`.

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      ...
      config:
        override_rpf_default_by: 'disable'
      ...

Configure log level for Contrail services
-----------------------------------------

For OpenContrail 4.0 and 4.1 formula supports setting level of
the log level for contrail services. Default value of debug level
is `SYS_NOTICE`.

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      ...
      config:
        log_level:
          api: SYS_NOTICE
          device_manager: SYS_NOTICE
          schema: SYS_NOTICE
          svc_monitor: SYS_NOTICE
      collector:
        log_level:
          alarm: SYS_NOTICE
          analytics_api: SYS_NOTICE
          collector: SYS_NOTICE
          query_engine: SYS_NOTICE
          snmp: SYS_NOTICE
          topology: SYS_NOTICE
      compute:
        log_level:
          agent: SYS_NOTICE
      control:
        log_level:
          control: SYS_NOTICE
          dns: SYS_NOTICE
      ...

Cassandra GC logging
--------------------

From Contrail version 3 you can set a way you want to handle Cassandra GC logs.
The behavior is controlled by `cassandra_gc_logging`. Valid values are
'rotation' (default), 'legacy' and false.

- 'rotation' is supported by JDK 6u34 7u2 or later and handles rotation of log
files automatically.
- 'legacy' is a way to support older JDKs and you will need to handle logs by
other means. This can be handled for example by using
`- service.opencontrail.database.cassandra_log_cleanup` in your reclass model.
- false will disable the cassandra gc logging

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      ...
      database:
        cassandra_gc_logging: false
      ...


Disable Contrail API authentication
-----------------------------------

Contrail version must >= 3.0. It is useful especially for Keystone v3.

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      ...
      config:
        multi_tenancy: false
      ...

Enable RBAC
-----------


.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      ...
      config:
        aaa_mode: rbac
        cloud_admin_role: admin
        global_read_only_role: member
      ...

Switch from on demand to periodic keystone sync
-----------------------------------------------

This can be useful when you want to sync projects from OpenStack to Contrail
automatically. The period of sync is 60s.

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      ...
      config:
        identity:
          sync_on_demand: false
      ...

Configure duration between polls to keystone to sync domains and projects
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      ...
      config:
        keystone_resync_interval_secs: 60
      ...

Cassandra listen configuration
------------------------------

Interface example:

.. code-block:: yaml

    database:
      ....
      bind:
        interface: eth0
        port: 9042
        rpc_port: 9160
      ....

For running config and analytics db clusters on same hosts, you will need to
change ports not to collide. The host is required.

    database:
      ....
      bind:
        host: 127.0.0.1
        port: 9042
        rpc_port: 9160
        # for containers we need to move configdb to neighbouring ports
        port_configdb: 9041
        rpc_port_configdb: 9161
      ....


OpenContrail WebUI version >= 3.1.1
-----------------------------------
For OpenContrail version >= 3.1.1 and Cassandra >= 2.1 we should override WebUI's cassandra port from 9160 to 9042.

For appropriate node at class level:

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      ....
      web:
        database:
          port: 9042
      ....


RabbitMQ HA hosts
------------------

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      config:
        message_queue:
          engine: rabbitmq
          members:
            - host: 10.0.16.1
            - host: 10.0.16.2
            - host: 10.0.16.3
          port: 5672

.. code-block:: yaml

    database:
      ....
      bind:
        interface: eth0
        port: 9042
        rpc_port: 9160
      ....

-------------

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      compute:
        dpdk:
          enabled: true
          taskset: "0x0000003C00003C"
          socket_mem: "1024,1024"
        interface:
          mac_address: 90:e2:ba:7c:22:e1
          pci: 0000:81:00.1
      ...

Increase number of contrail-api workers
---------------------------------------

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      ...
      config:
        api:
          workers_count: 3
      ...

Increase number of alarm-gen workers
------------------------------------

Port prefix will increment used ports by workers starting with 5901.

.. code-block:: yaml

    collector:
      alarm_gen:
        workers: 1
        port_prefix: 59

  opencontrail:
    client:
      virtual_networks:
        net01:
          name: 'network01'
          ip_address: '172.16.111.0'
          ip_prefix: 24
          asn: 64512
          route_target: 10000
          external: True
          allow_transit: False
          forwarding_mode: 'l2_l3'
          rpf: 'disable'
          mirror_destination: False
          domain: 'default-domain'
          project: 'admin'
          ipam_domain: 'default-domain'
          ipam_project: 'default-project'
          ipam_name: 'default-network-ipam'
        net02:
          name: 'network02'
        net03:
          name: 'network03'


Enforcing floating ip pool setings.

Virtual network with flag external needs to be created before managing the floating ip pool.
Param vn_name is the name of the external network.

.. code-block:: yaml

  opencontrail:
    client:
      floating_ip_pools:
        pool1:
          vn_name: external-network
          vn_project: admin
          vn_domain: default-domain
          owner_access: 7
          global_access: 0
          list_of_projects:
            - [tenant1, 7]
            - [tenant2, 7]
            - [tenant3, 7]
        pool2:
          vn_name: floating-ips
          vn_project: admin
          vn_domain: default-domain
          owner_access: 7
          global_access: 0
          list_of_projects:
            - [tenant3, 7]


If you want to remove all shares from the ip floating pool, define only empty list in
list of projects, like this:

.. code-block:: yaml

  opencontrail:
    client:
      floating_ip_pools:
        pool1:
          vn_name: external-network
          vn_project: admin
          vn_domain: default-domain
          owner_access: 7
          global_access: 0
          list_of_projects: []


Contrail DNS custom forwarders
------------------------------

By default Contrail uses the /etc/resolv.conf file to determine the upstream DNS servers.
This can have some side-affects, like resolving internal DNS entries on you public instances.

In order to overrule this default set, you can configure nameservers using pillar data.
The formula is then responsible for configuring and generating a alternate resolv.conf file.

Note: this has been patched recently in the Contrail distribution of Mirantis:
https://github.com/Mirantis/contrail-controller/commit/ed9a25ccbcfebd7d079a93aecc5a1a7bf1265ea4
https://github.com/Mirantis/contrail-controller/commit/94c844cf2e9bcfcd48587aec03d10b869e737ade


To change forwarders for the default-dns option (which is handled by compute nodes):

.. code-block:: yaml

    compute:
      ....
      dns:
        forwarders:
        - 8.8.8.8
        - 8.8.4.4
      ....

To change forwarders for vDNS zones (handled by control nodes):

.. code-block:: yaml

    control:
      ....
      dns:
        forwarders:
        - 8.8.8.8
        - 8.8.4.4
      ....

Contrail IF-MAP server configuration
------------------------------------

Contrail 3.2 contains internal IF-MAP server implementation. This implementation can be enabled
by setting ``config:ifmap:engine`` to internal. Currently supported engines are ``internal`` and
``irond`` (default). The ``internal`` will configure contrail-api to run as a IF-MAP server in the
same process as contrail-api and will generate security certificates in specified folder.

.. code-block:: yaml

    config:
      ....
      ifmap:
        engine: internal
        cert_dir: /etc/contrail/ssl/certs/    # default
        basename_cert: ifmap.crt              # default
        basename_key: ifmap.key               # default
      ....

To set static configuration of the IF-MAP server for contrail-control instead of using
discovery service, you can use ``control:ifmap:bind:host`` and ``port``. The static configuration
is triggered by existence of non-empty value of ``control:ifmap:bind`` key.

.. code-block:: yaml
    control:
      ....
      ifmap
        bind:
          host: 127.0.0.1
          port: 8443
      ....

Configure TCP_TW_RECYCLE in kernel
------------------------------------

Enable fast recycling of TIME-WAIT sockets. To enable set parameter to 1, which is
default value in formula. To turn off this option set parameter to 0:

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      ....
      common
        ....
        tcp_tw_recycle: 0
        ....

Define extra states for contrail services health check
------------------------------------------------------

Service health check procedure verifies that all available contrail services are in ``active``
state.
Additional states could be defined for every service as expected states for validation procedure.

.. code-block:: yaml

    config:
      ....
      services_extra_states:
        contrail-schema:
          - backup
        contrail-device-manager
          - backup
        contrail-svc-monitor:
          - backup
      ....

``contrail-schema``, ``contrail-device-manager`` and ``contrail-svc-monitor`` config services already
have additional ``backup`` state by default.

Setup Sandesh rate limit
------------------------
Sandesh send rate limit can be used to throttle system logs transmitted per second. System logs are
dropped if the sending rate is exceeded.

It is possible to use only global limit for all services of contrail component.

.. code-block:: yaml

  opencontrail:
    control:
      ....
      sandesh_send_rate_limits:
        global: 10
      ....


Global limit and limit for specific service can be defined together where specific service limit
has higher priority.

.. code-block:: yaml

  opencontrail:
    config:
      ....
      sandesh_send_rate_limits:
        global: 10
        config_api: 3
        schema: 5
      ....

Only specific service limit can be defined. In this case other services of Contrail component
keep default value (0) of `sandesh_send_rate_limit`

.. code-block:: yaml

  opencontrail:
    collector:
      ....
      sandesh_send_rate_limits:
        collector: 100
        analytics-api: 50
      ....

Full list:

.. code-block:: yaml

  opencontrail:
    control:
      ....
      sandesh_send_rate_limits:
        global: 100
        control: 10
        dns: 10
        nodemgr: 10
      ....

    config:
      ....
      sandesh_send_rate_limits:
        global: 100
        config_api: 10
        schema: 10
        svc_monitor: 10
        device_manager: 10
        nodemgr: 10
      ....

    collector:
      ....
      sandesh_send_rate_limits:
        global: 100
        collector: 10
        analytics_api: 10
        query_engine: 10
        alarm_gen: 10
        snmp_collector: 10
        topology: 10
        nodemgr: 10
      ....

    compute:
      ....
      sandesh_send_rate_limits:
        global: 100
        agent: 10
        nodemgr: 10
      ....

Disable database writes of collector
------------------------------------

Sandesh messages aren't written to analytics database by changing following parameters to `true`.
Default value all of these parametes is `false`. Is possible to change one or more parametes.

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      ....
      collector
        ....
        database:
          ....
          disable_all_writes: false
          disable_statistics_writes: true
          disable_message_writes: false
          ....


Define aging time for flow-records in seconds
---------------------------------------------

Flows are aged out based on inactivity for a specific period of time. By default,
the timeout value is 180 seconds. This can be modified by configuring flow_cache_timeout for
contrail-vrouter-agent service:

.. code-block:: yaml

    opencontrail:
      ....
      compute
        ....
        flow_cache_timeout: 180
        ....
