OpenContrail (www.opencontrail.org) is a fully featured Software Defined Networking (SDN) solution for private clouds. It supports high performance isolated tenant networks without requiring external hardware support. It provides a Neutron plugin to integrate with OpenStack.
This charm is designed to be used in conjunction with the rest of the OpenStack related charms in the charm store to virtualize the network that Nova Compute instances plug into.
This subordinate charm provides connectivity of Contrail to the Neutron API component and Nova Compute component and configures neutron-server and nova-compute.
Only OpenStack Ocata or newer is supported. Only for Contrail 5.0 or above. Juju 2.0 is required.
Contrail Controller are prerequisite service to deploy.
Neutron API should be deployed with legacy plugin management set to false:
neutron-api:
manage-neutron-plugin-legacy-mode: false
Once ready, deploy and relate as follows:
juju deploy contrail-openstack
juju add-relation contrail-openstack neutron-api
juju add-relation contrail-openstack nova-compute
juju add-relation contrail-openstack contrail-controller
The version of packages installed when deploying must be configured using the 'install-sources' option. This is a multilined value that may refer to PPAs or Deb repositories.
Option 'enable-metadata-server' controls if a local nova-api-metadata service is started (per Compute Node) and registered to serve metadata requests. It is the recommended approach for serving metadata to instances and is enabled by default.
This charm supports containerd as container runtime:
juju config contrail-openstack container_runtime=containerd
Please note that in this case all charms must be configured to use containerd. This setting cannot be changed after deploy.
