Create Subcloud Groups¶
All subclouds belong to a subcloud group. When a subcloud is created, it will be added to the ‘Default’ group, unless a different subcloud group has been specified.
A subcloud can be moved to a different subcloud group using the dcmanager subcloud update command for the group attribute. A subcloud group cannot be deleted if it contains any subclouds. Removing a subcloud from a subcloud group is done by moving the subcloud back to the ‘Default’ subcloud group.
About this task
You can use CLI commands to add new subcloud groups, list, update or delete subcloud groups. The CLI commands for managing subcloud groups are:
dcmanager subcloud-group add: Adds a new subcloud group.
dcmanager subcloud-group delete: Deletes subcloud group details from the database.
Note
The ‘Default’ subcloud group cannot be deleted
dcmanager subcloud-group list: Lists subcloud groups.
dcmanager subcloud-group list-subclouds: List subclouds referencing a subcloud group.
dcmanager subcloud-group show: Shows the details of a subcloud group.
dcmanager subcloud-group update: Updates attributes of a subcloud group.
Note
The name of the ‘Default’ subcloud group cannot be changed
Procedure
To create a subcloud group, use the following command:
~(keystone_admin)]$ dcmanager subcloud-group add --name <group> usage: dcmanager subcloud-group add [-h] [-f {json,shell,table,value,yaml}] [-c COLUMN] [--max-width <integer>] [--fit-width] [--print-empty] [--noindent] [--prefix PREFIX] --name NAME [--description DESCRIPTION] [--update_apply_type UPDATE_APPLY_TYPE] [--max_parallel_subclouds MAX_PARALLEL_SUBCLOUDS]For example,
~(keystone_admin)]$ dcmanager subcloud-group add --name <Group1> +------------------------+----------------------------+ | Field | Value | +------------------------+----------------------------+ | id | 1 | | name | Group1 | | description | No description provided | | update apply type | parallel | | max parallel subclouds | 20 | | created_at | 2020-09-15 19:03:30.050353 | | updated_at | None | +------------------------+----------------------------+
To create an upgrade strategy, if required, use the dcmanager upgrade-strategy create, dcmanager patch-strategy create, or dcmanager fw-update-strategy create commands. For more information, see Managing Subcloud Groups.
To list subcloud groups, use the following command:
~(keystone_admin)]$ dcmanager subcloud-group list
To list subclouds referencing a subcloud group, use the following command:
~(keystone_admin)]$ dcmanager subcloud-group list-subclouds
For example,
~(keystone_admin)]$ dcmanager subcloud-group list-subclouds Group1 +--+------+----+----+-------+-------+------+-----------+-----------+-------------+-----------+------------+------------+------+----------+----------+ |id|name |desc|loc.|sof.ver|mgmnt |avail |deploy_stat|mgmt_subnet|mgmt_start_ip|mgmt_end_ip|mgmt_gtwy_ip|sysctrl_gtwy|grp_id|created_at|updated_at| +--+------+----+----+-------+-------+------+-----------+-----------+-------------+-----------+------------+------------+------+----------+----------+ |3 |subcl1|None|None|nn.nn |managed|online|complete |fd01:12::0.|fd01:12::2 |fd01:12::11|fd01:12::1 |fd01:11::1 | 2 |2021-01-09|2021-01-12| |4 |subcl2|None|None|nn.nn |managed|online|complete |fd01:13::0.|fd01:13::2 |fd01:13::11|fd01:13::1 |fd01:11::1 | 2 |2021-01-09|2021-01-12| +--+------+----+----+-------+-------+------+-----------+-----------+-------------+-----------+------------+------------+------+----------+----------+
To show the details of a subcloud group, use the following command:
~(keystone_admin)]$ dcmanager subcloud-group show
For example,
~(keystone_admin)]$ dcmanager subcloud-group show Group1 +------------------------+----------------------------+ | Field | Value | +------------------------+----------------------------+ | id | 2 | | name | Group1 | | description | subcloud 3 and 4 | | update apply type | parallel | | max parallel subclouds | 2 | | created_at | 2021-01-12 18:57:38.382269 | | updated_at | None | +------------------------+----------------------------+
To update the attributes and associate a subcloud with a specific subcloud group, use the following command, for example:
~(keystone_admin)]$ dcmanager subcloud update --group Group1 Subcloud1 usage: dcmanager subcloud update [-h] [-f {json,shell,table,value,yaml}] [-c COLUMN] [--max-width <integer>] [--fit-width] [--print-empty] [--noindent] [--prefix PREFIX] [--description DESCRIPTION] [--location LOCATION] [--group GROUP] [--install-values INSTALL_VALUES] [--bmc-password BMC_PASSWORD] subcloudA subcloud must always belong to a subcloud group. In order to remove a subcloud from a given group, update its group to be the ‘Default’ subcloud group.
For example,
~(keystone_admin)]$ dcmanager subcloud update --group Default Subcloud1 +------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | Field | Value | +------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | id | 665 | | name | Subcloud1 | | description | Subcloud1 | | location | somewhere | | software_version | nn.nn | | management | managed | | availability | online | | deploy_status | complete | | management_subnet | 2607:f160:10:905f:2001::/80 | | management_start_ip | 2607:f160:10:905f:2001:290:0:3000 | | management_end_ip | 2607:f160:10:905f:2001:290:0:3020 | | management_gateaway_ip | 2607:f160:10:905f:2001:290:: | | systemcontroller_gateaway_ip | 2607:f160:10:923e:ce:23:0:0 | | group_id | 1 | | created_at | 2020-11-08T02:04:34.678248 | | updated_at | 2020-12-03T17:48:59.644206 | +------------------------------+-----------------------------------+
