Chapter 5. Ansible-based overcloud registration
Director uses Ansible-based methods to register overcloud nodes to the Red Hat Customer Portal or to a Red Hat Satellite Server.
If you used the rhel-registration
method from previous Red Hat OpenStack Platform versions, you must disable it and switch to the Ansible-based method. For more information, see Switching to the rhsm composable service and RHEL-Registration to rhsm mappings.
In addition to the director-based registration method, you can also manually register after deployment. For more information, see Section 5.9, “Running Ansible-based registration manually”
5.1. Red Hat Subscription Manager (RHSM) composable service
You can use the rhsm
composable service to register overcloud nodes through Ansible. Each role in the default roles_data
file contains a OS::TripleO::Services::Rhsm
resource, which is disabled by default. To enable the service, register the resource to the rhsm
composable service file:
resource_registry: OS::TripleO::Services::Rhsm: /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/deployment/rhsm/rhsm-baremetal-ansible.yaml
The rhsm
composable service accepts a RhsmVars
parameter, which you can use to define multiple sub-parameters relevant to your registration:
parameter_defaults: RhsmVars: rhsm_repos: - rhel-8-for-x86_64-baseos-eus-rpms - rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-eus-rpms - rhel-8-for-x86_64-highavailability-eus-rpms … rhsm_username: "myusername" rhsm_password: "p@55w0rd!" rhsm_org_id: "1234567" rhsm_release: 8.4
You can also use the RhsmVars
parameter in combination with role-specific parameters, for example, ControllerParameters
, to provide flexibility when enabling specific repositories for different nodes types.
5.2. RhsmVars sub-parameters
Use the following sub-parameters as part of the RhsmVars
parameter when you configure the rhsm
composable service. For more information about the Ansible parameters that are available, see the role documentation.
rhsm | Description |
---|---|
|
Choose the registration method. Either |
|
The organization that you want to use for registration. To locate this ID, run |
|
The subscription pool ID that you want to use. Use this parameter if you do not want to auto-attach subscriptions. To locate this ID, run |
| The activation key that you want to use for registration. |
|
Use this parameter to attach compatible subscriptions to this system automatically. Set the value to |
| The base URL for obtaining content. The default URL is the Red Hat Content Delivery Network. If you use a Satellite server, change this value to the base URL of your Satellite server content repositories. |
| The hostname of the subscription management service for registration. The default is the Red Hat Subscription Management hostname. If you use a Satellite server, change this value to your Satellite server hostname. |
| A list of repositories that you want to enable. |
| The username for registration. If possible, use activation keys for registration. |
| The password for registration. If possible, use activation keys for registration. |
| Red Hat Enterprise Linux release for pinning the repositories. This is set to 8.4 for Red Hat OpenStack Platform |
|
The hostname for the HTTP proxy. For example: |
|
The port for HTTP proxy communication. For example: |
| The username to access the HTTP proxy. |
| The password to access the HTTP proxy. |
You can use rhsm_activation_key
and rhsm_repos
together only if rhsm_method
is set to portal
. If rhsm_method
is set to satellite, you can only use either rhsm_activation_key
or rhsm_repos
.
5.3. Registering the overcloud with the rhsm composable service
Create an environment file that enables and configures the rhsm
composable service. Director uses this environment file to register and subscribe your nodes.
Procedure
-
Create an environment file named
templates/rhsm.yml
to store the configuration. Include your configuration in the environment file. For example:
resource_registry: OS::TripleO::Services::Rhsm: /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/deployment/rhsm/rhsm-baremetal-ansible.yaml parameter_defaults: RhsmVars: rhsm_repos: - rhel-8-for-x86_64-baseos-eus-rpms - rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-eus-rpms - rhel-8-for-x86_64-highavailability-eus-rpms … rhsm_username: "myusername" rhsm_password: "p@55w0rd!" rhsm_org_id: "1234567" rhsm_pool_ids: "1a85f9223e3d5e43013e3d6e8ff506fd" rhsm_method: "portal" rhsm_release: 8.4
-
The
resource_registry
section associates therhsm
composable service with theOS::TripleO::Services::Rhsm
resource, which is available on each role. -
The
RhsmVars
variable passes parameters to Ansible for configuring your Red Hat registration.
-
The
- Save the environment file.
5.4. Applying the rhsm composable service to different roles
You can apply the rhsm
composable service on a per-role basis. For example, you can apply different sets of configurations to Controller nodes, Compute nodes, and Ceph Storage nodes.
Procedure
-
Create an environment file named
templates/rhsm.yml
to store the configuration. Include your configuration in the environment file. For example:
resource_registry: OS::TripleO::Services::Rhsm: /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/deployment/rhsm/rhsm-baremetal-ansible.yaml parameter_defaults: ControllerParameters: RhsmVars: rhsm_repos: - rhel-8-for-x86_64-baseos-eus-rpms - rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-eus-rpms - rhel-8-for-x86_64-highavailability-eus-rpms - ansible-2.9-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms - openstack-16.2-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms - fast-datapath-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms rhsm_username: "myusername" rhsm_password: "p@55w0rd!" rhsm_org_id: "1234567" rhsm_pool_ids: "55d251f1490556f3e75aa37e89e10ce5" rhsm_method: "portal" rhsm_release: 8.4 ComputeParameters: RhsmVars: rhsm_repos: - rhel-8-for-x86_64-baseos-eus-rpms - rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-eus-rpms - rhel-8-for-x86_64-highavailability-eus-rpms - ansible-2.9-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms - openstack-16.2-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms - fast-datapath-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms rhsm_username: "myusername" rhsm_password: "p@55w0rd!" rhsm_org_id: "1234567" rhsm_pool_ids: "55d251f1490556f3e75aa37e89e10ce5" rhsm_method: "portal" rhsm_release: 8.4 CephStorageParameters: RhsmVars: rhsm_repos: - rhel-8-for-x86_64-baseos-rpms - rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms - rhel-8-for-x86_64-highavailability-rpms - ansible-2.9-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms - openstack-16.2-deployment-tools-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms rhsm_username: "myusername" rhsm_password: "p@55w0rd!" rhsm_org_id: "1234567" rhsm_pool_ids: "68790a7aa2dc9dc50a9bc39fabc55e0d" rhsm_method: "portal" rhsm_release: 8.4
The
resource_registry
associates therhsm
composable service with theOS::TripleO::Services::Rhsm
resource, which is available on each role.The
ControllerParameters
,ComputeParameters
, andCephStorageParameters
parameters each use a separateRhsmVars
parameter to pass subscription details to their respective roles.NoteSet the
RhsmVars
parameter within theCephStorageParameters
parameter to use a Red Hat Ceph Storage subscription and repositories specific to Ceph Storage. Ensure therhsm_repos
parameter contains the standard Red Hat Enterprise Linux repositories instead of the Extended Update Support (EUS) repositories that Controller and Compute nodes require.- Save the environment file.
5.5. Registering the overcloud to Red Hat Satellite Server
Create an environment file that enables and configures the rhsm
composable service to register nodes to Red Hat Satellite instead of the Red Hat Customer Portal.
Procedure
-
Create an environment file named
templates/rhsm.yml
to store the configuration. Include your configuration in the environment file. For example:
resource_registry: OS::TripleO::Services::Rhsm: /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/deployment/rhsm/rhsm-baremetal-ansible.yaml parameter_defaults: RhsmVars: rhsm_activation_key: "myactivationkey" rhsm_method: "satellite" rhsm_org_id: "ACME" rhsm_server_hostname: "satellite.example.com" rhsm_baseurl: "https://satellite.example.com/pulp/repos" rhsm_release: 8.4
The
resource_registry
associates therhsm
composable service with theOS::TripleO::Services::Rhsm
resource, which is available on each role.The
RhsmVars
variable passes parameters to Ansible for configuring your Red Hat registration.- Save the environment file.
5.6. Switching to the rhsm composable service
The previous rhel-registration
method runs a bash script to handle the overcloud registration. The scripts and environment files for this method are located in the core heat template collection at /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/extraconfig/pre_deploy/rhel-registration/
.
Complete the following steps to switch from the rhel-registration
method to the rhsm
composable service.
Procedure
Exclude the
rhel-registration
environment files from future deployments operations. In most cases, exclude the following files:-
rhel-registration/environment-rhel-registration.yaml
-
rhel-registration/rhel-registration-resource-registry.yaml
-
If you use a custom
roles_data
file, ensure that each role in yourroles_data
file contains theOS::TripleO::Services::Rhsm
composable service. For example:- name: Controller description: | Controller role that has all the controller services loaded and handles Database, Messaging and Network functions. CountDefault: 1 ... ServicesDefault: ... - OS::TripleO::Services::Rhsm ...
-
Add the environment file for
rhsm
composable service parameters to future deployment operations.
This method replaces the rhel-registration
parameters with the rhsm
service parameters and changes the heat resource that enables the service from:
resource_registry: OS::TripleO::NodeExtraConfig: rhel-registration.yaml
To:
resource_registry: OS::TripleO::Services::Rhsm: /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/deployment/rhsm/rhsm-baremetal-ansible.yaml
You can also include the /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/environments/rhsm.yaml
environment file with your deployment to enable the service.
5.7. rhel-registration to rhsm mappings
To help transition your details from the rhel-registration
method to the rhsm
method, use the following table to map your parameters and values.

5.8. Deploying the overcloud with the rhsm composable service
Deploy the overcloud with the rhsm
composable service so that Ansible controls the registration process for your overcloud nodes.
Procedure
Include
rhsm.yml
environment file with theopenstack overcloud deploy
command:openstack overcloud deploy \ <other cli args> \ -e ~/templates/rhsm.yaml
This enables the Ansible configuration of the overcloud and the Ansible-based registration.
- Wait until the overcloud deployment completes.
Check the subscription details on your overcloud nodes. For example, log in to a Controller node and run the following commands:
$ sudo subscription-manager status $ sudo subscription-manager list --consumed
5.9. Running Ansible-based registration manually
You can perform manual Ansible-based registration on a deployed overcloud with the dynamic inventory script on the director node. Use this script to define node roles as host groups and then run a playbook against them with ansible-playbook
. Use the following example playbook to register Controller nodes manually.
Procedure
Create a playbook that uses the
redhat_subscription
modules to register your nodes. For example, the following playbook applies to Controller nodes:--- - name: Register Controller nodes hosts: Controller become: yes vars: repos: - rhel-8-for-x86_64-baseos-eus-rpms - rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-eus-rpms - rhel-8-for-x86_64-highavailability-eus-rpms - ansible-2.9-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms - openstack-beta-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms - fast-datapath-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms tasks: - name: Register system redhat_subscription: username: myusername password: p@55w0rd! org_id: 1234567 release: 8.4 pool_ids: 1a85f9223e3d5e43013e3d6e8ff506fd - name: Disable all repos command: "subscription-manager repos --disable *" - name: Enable Controller node repos command: "subscription-manager repos --enable {{ item }}" with_items: "{{ repos }}"
This play contains three tasks:
- Register the node.
- Disable any auto-enabled repositories.
-
Enable only the repositories relevant to the Controller node. The repositories are listed with the
repos
variable.
After you deploy the overcloud, you can run the following command so that Ansible executes the playbook (
ansible-osp-registration.yml
) against your overcloud:$ ansible-playbook -i /usr/bin/tripleo-ansible-inventory ansible-osp-registration.yml
This command performs the following actions:
- Runs the dynamic inventory script to get a list of host and their groups.
-
Applies the playbook tasks to the nodes in the group defined in the
hosts
parameter of the playbook, which in this case is the Controller group.
