This document provides the release notes for Gambia
release with the Fuel
deployment toolchain.
Starting with this release, both x86_64
and aarch64
architectures
are supported at the same time by the fuel
codebase.
All Fuel and “common” entities are protected by the Apache License 2.0.
This is the OPNFV Gambia
release that implements the deploy stage of the
OPNFV CI pipeline via Fuel.
Fuel is based on the MCP installation tool chain. More information available at Mirantis Cloud Platform Documentation.
The goal of the Gambia
release and this Fuel-based deployment process is
to establish a lab ready platform accelerating further development
of the OPNFV infrastructure.
Carefully follow the installation instructions.
Gambia
release with the Fuel deployment toolchain will establish an OPNFV
target system on a Pharos compliant lab infrastructure. The current definition
of an OPNFV target system is OpenStack Queens combined with an SDN
controller, such as OpenDaylight. The system is deployed with OpenStack High
Availability (HA) for most OpenStack services.
Fuel also supports non-HA deployments, which deploys a single controller, one gateway node and a number of compute nodes.
Fuel supports x86_64
, aarch64
or mixed
architecture clusters.
Furthermore, Fuel is capable of deploying scenarios in a baremetal
,
virtual
or hybrid
fashion. virtual
deployments use multiple VMs on
the Jump Host and internal networking to simulate the baremetal
deployment.
For Gambia
, the typical use of Fuel as an OpenStack installer is
supplemented with OPNFV unique components such as:
OVN
)As well as OPNFV-unique configurations of the Hardware and Software stack.
This Gambia
artifact provides Fuel as the deployment stage tool in the
OPNFV CI pipeline including:
