Hi folks,
Is anyone using SaltStack to deploy Openstack ? I haven't seen much
discussion around this tech hence my question and maybe point of
inspiration.
we do
there is a repo in github by CSScorp and other projects (i don't
remember right now but i can check next week). most of them build
modules (puppet like) and consume them.
i don't use them as i found them hard to explain or follow.
i use simple state files where pkgs are installed, config files are
generated and services are enabled/started/restarted/reload
i have multiple openstack clouds and multiple salt environments. each
environment has it's own pillar and state files, many of the state files
are (almost) the same. for example each environment has a nova state.
also i have a base environment shared by all clouds where i keep common
states (libvirt, repos, monitoring, logging, etc)
ideally i would have only one set of state files and pillar should make
the differences but in practice that was difficult to achieve.
i run havana and icehouse (and different icehouse releases), keep only
one set of state files would make them full of `if`statements
the top file applies the same states to all servers in the same
environment, states (using custom grains configured on the minions)
decide how/what to configure each individual server
i have another salt state groups which i use for test environments. they
support both debian and ubuntu and icehouse, juno and kilo.
i plan to publish the second group of states before the end of june,
after some cleanup.
