Install M-CORD Charts

Note: Currently the M-CORD is under maintenance. Check the link below for more information: https://wiki.opencord.org/display/CORD/GPL+Issue+August+2018

Quick Start

A convenience script is provided that will install M-CORD on a single node, suitable for evaluation or testing. Requirements:

• An Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS server with at least 64GB of RAM and 32 virtual CPUs
• Latest versions of released software installed on the server: sudo apt update
• User invoking the script has passwordless sudo capability
• Open access to the Internet (not behind a proxy)
• Public DNS servers (e.g., 8.8.8.8) are accessible

Target server on CloudLab (optional)

If you do not have a target server available that meets the above requirements, you can borrow one on CloudLab. Sign up for an account using your organization's email address and choose "Join Existing Project"; for "Project Name" enter cord-testdrive.

NOTE: CloudLab is supporting CORD as a courtesy. It is expected that you will not use CloudLab resources for purposes other than evaluating CORD. If, after a week or two, you wish to continue using CloudLab to experiment with or develop CORD, then you must apply for your own separate CloudLab project.

Once your account is approved, start an experiment using the OnePC-Ubuntu16.04-HWE profile on the Wisconsin cluster. This will provide you with a temporary target server meeting the above requirements.

Refer to the CloudLab documentation for more information.

Convenience Script

This script takes about an hour to complete. If you run it, you can jump directly to the Validating the Installation section.

mkdir ~/cord
cd ~/cord
git clone https://gerrit.opencord.org/automation-tools
automation-tools/mcord/mcord-in-a-box.sh

Prerequisites

• Kubernetes: 1.10.0

CORD Components

Bring up M-CORD installing the following helm charts in order:

• base-kubernetes
• xos-core

Note: Install xos-core with --set xos_projectName="M-CORD" to get correct name on XOS web UI.

• onos-fabric
• mcord

Validating the Installation

Verify all components are installed by Helm:
