Automatic Installation with OneDeploy on

Overview

OpenNebula provides OneDeploy, a set of Ansible playbooks that allows you to automatically deploy an OpenNebula cloud in a simple and convenient way.

Ansible is a Python application for IT automation. It can deploy software, configure systems, and orchestrate complex deployments and workflows.

The Ansible playbooks in OneDeploy install a complete OpenNebula cloud, including the Front-end with the OneFlow and OneGate services, and the Sunstone UI. Before running the playbooks, you can modify variables to configure the OpenNebula cloud that will be created. For example, you can select the OpenNebula version to install, and define the network, storage configuration, and other options.

Cloud Deployment - Local Storage

Mon, 17 Feb 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Overview

In this tutorial, we’ll use OneDeploy to automatically deploy a simple OpenNebula cloud, with one Front-end and two Hosts using local storage. In this configuration the virtual disk images are transferred from the Front-end to the Hypervisors’ local storage using the SSH protocol.

This sample architecture uses a basic network configuration, a flat (bridged) network, where each VM’s IP is part of the same network as the Hypervisors.

Cloud Deployment - Shared Storage

Overview

In this tutorial, we’ll use OneDeploy to automatically deploy a simple OpenNebula cloud, with one Front-end and two Hosts using storage shared over NFS. In this configuration, the OpenNebula Front-end and Hypervisor nodes read datastore images from an NFS share available on the network.

This sample architecture uses a basic network configuration, a flat (bridged) network, where each VM’s IPs is part of the same network as the Hypervisors.
