Bare Metal cloud provider

Prepare

You just have to have a bunch of machines reachable via SSH. If you authenticate to the SSH server using private keys, you have to have the private key in the PEM format (which is typical).

Begin

Suppose there are 2 machines you want to use, reachable via machine1.example.com and machine2.example.com. Also suppose that both machines have a cloud-user user that is accessible via SSH using private key located at /home/my/baremetal/my-baremetal.pem.

The following set of properties will get you started:

cloud.provider.myprovider.type=baremetal
cloud.provider.myprovider.baremetal.nodes=machine1, machine2

node.machine1.baremetal.host=machine1.example.com
node.machine1.baremetal.ssh.user=cloud-user
node.machine1.baremetal.ssh.privateKeyFile=/home/my/baremetal/my-baremetal.pem
node.machine1.baremetal.waitForPorts=22

node.machine2.template=machine1
node.machine2.baremetal.host=machine2.example.com

Details

Bare Metal cloud provider is based on JClouds byon implementation.

Note that nodes are configured upfront, when the cloud provider is being created, so passing property overrides to CloudProvider.createNode() won't work.

CloudProvider

cloud.provider.[name].type=baremetal

List of Bare Metal CloudProvider properties:

Property name Description Default value
nodegroup Name of the node group for all nodes in this cloud provider. Should provide information about who started the nodes and shouldn't be prone to collisions. Default value should typically be satisfactory. Based on current runtime environment.
baremetal.nodes Comma-separated list of identifiers of all nodes. This needs to be provided upfront. [None. Mandatory.]

Node

List of Bare Metal Node properties:

Property name Description Default value
nodegroup Name of the node group for this node. Default value should typically be satisfactory. The nodegroup value from the cloud provider.
baremetal.host Host name or IP address of the node. [None. Mandatory.]
baremetal.privateAddress Private IP address of the node (if any) - it's used as a return value for Node.getPrivateAddress() method. value of Node.getPublicAddress()
baremetal.ssh.port Port number of running SSH server in the node. 22
baremetal.ssh.user Username of the user that will be used for SSH. [None. Mandatory.]
baremetal.ssh.password Password of the user that will be used for SSH. [None. One of password, privateKey, privateKeyFile is mandatory.]
baremetal.ssh.privateKey Private key for SSH authentication in the PEM format. [None. One of password, privateKey, privateKeyFile is mandatory.]
baremetal.ssh.privateKeyFile Path to a file with private key for SSH authentication in the PEM format. [None. One of password, privateKey, privateKeyFile is mandatory.]
baremetal.bootScript Allows you to specify a script that is to be run on boot. The script is run with sudo. [None. Optional.]
baremetal.bootScript.file As baremetal.bootScript, but allows you to specify a path to a file that contains the script. Only one of baremetal.bootScript and baremetal.bootScript.file can be specified at a time. [None. Optional.]
