XOS+VTN development environment

This goal is to use this configuration to do basic end-to-end development of XOS and VTN.
It launches XOS in three Docker containers (development GUI, Synchronizer, database) and configures XOS to talk to an OpenStack backend. docker-compose is used to manage the containers.

See the VTN README for more information.

How to run it

The configuration can be either run on CloudLab (controlling an OpenStack backend set up by a CloudLab profile) or used with a basic DevStack configuration.

CloudLab

To get started on CloudLab:

  • Create an experiment using the OpenStack profile. Choose Kilo and disable security groups.
  • Wait until you get an email from CloudLab with title "OpenStack Instance Finished Setting Up".
  • Login to the ctl node of your experiment and run:
ctl:~$ git clone https://github.com/open-cloud/xos.git
ctl:~$ cd xos/xos/configurations/vtn/
ctl:~/xos/xos/configurations/vtn$ make cloudlab

The configuration provides an Ansible script that automates the configuration steps outlined in the VTN README. Run:

ctl:~/xos/xos/configurations/vtn$ make destroy-networks
ctl:~/xos/xos/configurations/vtn$ sudo ansible-playbook setup.yml

DevStack

NOTE: THIS CONFIGURATION IS NOT YET WORKING WITH DEVSTACK.

The following instructions can be used to install DevStack and XOS together on a single node. This setup has been run successfully in a VirtualBox VM with 2 CPUs and 4096 GB RAM.

First, if you happen to be installing DevStack on a CloudLab node, you can configure about 1TB of unallocated disk space for DevStack as follows:

~$ sudo mkdir -p /opt/stack
~$ sudo /usr/testbed/bin/mkextrafs /opt/stack

To install DevStack and XOS:

~$ git clone https://github.com/open-cloud/xos.git
~$ git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack-dev/devstack
~$ cd devstack
~/devstack$ cp ../xos/xos/configurations/common/devstack/local.conf .
~/devstack$ ./stack.sh
~/devstack$ cd ../xos/xos/configurations/devel/
~/xos/xos/configurations/devel$ make devstack

Docker Helpers

Stop the containers: make stop

Restart the containers: make stop; make [cloudlab|devstack]

Delete the containers and relaunch them: make rm; make [cloudlab|devstack]

Build the containers from scratch using the local XOS source tree: make containers

View logs: make showlogs

See what containers are running: make ps

Open a shell on the XOS container: make enter-xos

Open a shell on the Synchronizer container: make enter-synchronizer
