Libvirt Topologies

Simple Libvirt Topology

---
 topology_name: "libvirt_simple"
 resource_groups:
   -
     resource_group_name: "simple"
     res_group_type: "libvirt"
     res_defs:

       - res_name: "centos72"
         res_type: "libvirt_node"
         driver: 'qemu'
         uri: 'qemu:///system'
         image_src: 'file:///tmp/linchpin_centos71.img'
         count: 2
         memory: 2048
         vcpus: 2
         networks:
           - name: linchpin-centos72

       - res_name: "centos71"
         res_type: "libvirt_node"
         uri: 'qemu:///system'
         count: 1
         image_src: 'http://cloud.centos.org/centos/7/images/CentOS-7-x86_64-GenericCloud-1608.qcow2.xz'
         memory: 2048
         vcpus: 2
         arch: x86_64
         networks:
           - name: linchpin-centos71

Note

Each set of nodes can only be assigned one network at this time.

Note

The above topology assumes both networks exist and are running at provision time. If they are not, or do not exist, they will not be created and will fail.

resource_groups:
  -
    resource_group_name: "libvirt1"
    res_group_type: "libvirt"
    res_defs:

      - res_name: "linchpin-centos72"
        res_type: "libvirt_network"
        ip: 192.168.77.100

        dhcp_end: 192.168.77.112

      - res_name: "linchpin-centos74"
        res_type: "libvirt_network"

      - res_name: "centos72"
        res_type: "libvirt_node"
        uri: 'qemu:///system'
        count: 2
        memory: 2048
        vcpus: 2
        networks:
          - name: linchpin-centos72

      - res_name: "centos74"
        res_type: "libvirt_node"
        uri: 'qemu://libvirt.example.com/system'
        memory: 1024
        vcpus: 1
        networks:
          - name: linchpin-centos74

Note

as compared with the simple topology above, this topology defines and enables the network(s) with the res_type of libvirt_network.

Note

The linchpin-centos72 network will support dhcp, with a defined pool.

Note

The linchpin-centos74 is providing only the network definition. Each defined node would need to manually configure its own ip address.

Note

Libvirt provisioning does not yet support assoc_creds as simple adjustments can be made to a hypervisor to accommodate authentication.
