provisioning teuthology targets with OpenStack

provisioning teuthology targets with OpenStack

Hi Zack,

I'm motivated by my recent experience with hacking teuthology and containers :-) I'd like to give

http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/6502 "provision targets using a cloud API"

a shot with OpenStack in mind (because I know nothing of EC2 really). The idea is to make it relatively easy for someone with access to an OpenStack tenant to using instead of downburst. Not only would that simplify the development process for people without access to the lab, it would also allow the addition of more horsepower to the lab. What do you think ?

Cheers

Hi Loic!

I'm really happy to hear you have the time and motivation to work on this! It's something I've wanted to get to for a while, but other things keep getting in the way.

I'd suggest looking at teuthology.provision.Downburst to investigate maybe pulling some of its functionality into a base class that a potential OpenStack subclass could also benefit from. I'd love to see us using a common interface for all of our provisioning. If that seems like a lot of work, I'd be willing to be the one to create the base class and work with you to make sure its API was useful for OpenStack as well.

Thanks,
Zack

Thanks for the pointers. I'll write something that works and get back to you to make it acceptable :-)

Hi Zack,

I think it works and I'll start using it. For the record

https://github.com/ceph/teuthology/compare/master...dachary:wip-6502-openstack?expand=1#diff-88b99bb28683bd5b7e3a204826ead112R318

is what I have right now. There are a few things that need cleaning but nothing major I hope. I'll clean them up after you had time to review the preliminary pull requests at https://github.com/ceph/teuthology/pulls.

Cheers
