Bare-Metal Provisioning
***********************

The Kubernetes Deployment, aka KUD, has been designed to be consumed
by Virtual Machines as well as Bare-Metal servers. The *baremetal/aio.sh*
script contains the bash instructions for provisioning an All-in-One Kubernetes
deployment in a Bare-Metal server. This document lists the Hardware & Software
requirements and walkthrough the instructions that *baremetal/aio.sh* contains.

- Ubuntu Server 16.04 LTS

baremetal/aio.sh
################

This bash script provides an automated process for deploying an All-in-One
Kubernetes cluster.

The following two instructions start the provisioning process.

.. code-block:: bash

    $ sudo su
    # git clone https://git.onap.org/multicloud/k8s/
    # cd k8s/kud/hosting_providers/baremetal/
    # ./aio.sh

In overall, this script can be summarized in three general phases:

1. Generating Inventory.
2. Enabiling Nested-Virtualization.
3. Deploying KUD services.

**Inventory**

Ansible works agains multiple systems, the way for selecting them is through the
usage of the inventory. The inventory file is a static source for determining the
target servers used for the execution of ansible tasks. The *aio.sh* script creates
an inventory file for addressing those tasks to localhost.

.. code-block:: bash

    cat <<EOL > inventory/hosts.ini
    [all]
    localhost

    [kube-master]
    localhost

    [kube-node]
    localhost

    [etcd]
    localhost

    [ovn-central]
    localhost

    [ovn-controller]
    localhost

    [virtlet]
    localhost

    [k8s-cluster:children]
    kube-node
    kube-master
    EOL

KUD consumes kubespray_ for provisioning a Kubernetes base deployment.

.. _kubespray: https://github.com/kubernetes-incubator/kubespray

Ansible uses SSH protocol for executing remote instructions. The following
instructions create and register ssh keys which avoid the usage of passwords.

.. code-block:: bash

    # echo -e "\n\n\n" | ssh-keygen -t rsa -N ""
    # cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
    # chmod og-wx ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

**Enabling Nested-Virtualization**

KUD installs Virtlet_ Kubernetes CRI for running Virtual Machine workloads.
Nested-virtualization gives the ability of running a Virtual Machine within
another. The *node.sh* bash script contains the instructions for enabling
Nested-Virtualization.

.. _Virtlet : https://github.com/Mirantis/virtlet

.. code-block:: bash

    # ./node.sh

**Deploying KUD services**

Finally, the KUD provisioning process can be started through the use of
*installer.sh* bash script. The output of this script is collected in the
*kud_installer.log* file for future reference.

.. code-block:: bash

    # ./installer.sh | tee kud_installer.log
