Kojak Autom8 is fully integrated DevOps circuit that uses Openshift Origin and Fabric8 to deploy applications in the cloud.

Kojak started off as a collection of scripts which were used to automate the installation and configuration of the Koji build system. It was part of a productization effort to encourage the adoption of Koji for use in development, testing and staging environments. The scripts included in this repository can be used to create a complete DevOps circuit with Source Control Manager, Continious Integration, Artifact Repository Manager and Testing Suite.

Kojak Autom8 installs Openshift Origin and Fabric which provide industry reconised opensource toolchain designed to allow developers to build, test, deploy, promote, release and replicate product builds in a consistent and predictable way. The long term goal is to provide a DevOps platform to allow users to familiarize themselves with the DevOps aproach and tools.

Kojak is a virtual appliance and it not recommended that you install directly on your workstation. The Installation options will build a virtual machine for you which will be accessible from your local host. If you already have a virtual machine you can install Kojak directly on that machine and skip the virtual machine provisioning stage. Kojak has been successfully installed and tested on CentOS 7+ and RHEL 7+.

For more information about virtualization see below:

CentOS http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos#head-fb1ff7e71fb5f2f511cda8c68cb6ba5f6e8decae

Fedora http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Virtualization?rd=Tools/Virtualization

It is recommended that the system be updated before beginning the installation. A fast internet connection is also required in order to facilitate the downloading of any package dependancies.

The virtual machine is configured with the following default specifications:

1. 8GB RAM
2. 64GB Disk Space

Your local host should be configured with the following minimum specifications:

1. Centos/RHEL 7+ or Fedora 18+ with virtualization package group
2. 16GB RAM
3. 128 GB Disk Space

Create the virtual machine with the create-vm script. You can modify the varibles in the script to control alloted resources but it is recommeded that you stick with the defaults. On your localhost execute the following commands.

[root@localhost]# git clone https://github.com/kojak/autom8.git
[root@localhost]# cd autom8
[root@localhost]# ./create-vm

Add the following to your /etc/hosts file on your localhost in order to resolv the microservices shipped with Kojak Autom8 as part of the DevOps Cicuit.

192.168.122.100 example.com master.example.com fabric8.example.com fabric8-master.example.com docker-registry.example.com gogs.example.com nexus.example.com jenkins.example.com

Login into the virtual machine (see configuraiton notes for login credentials) and checkout the contents of the Kojak Autom8 git repository to a suitable directory on your vanilla virtual machine and execute the kojak executable.

[root@localhost]# yum -y install git
[root@localhost]# mkdir workspace
[root@localhost]# cd workspace 
[root@localhost]# git clone https://github.com/kojak/autom8.git
[root@localhost]# cd autom8
[root@localhost]# ./auto8

Or as a one liner.

yum -y install git && mkdir workspace && cd workspace && git clone https://github.com/kojak/autom8 && cd autom8 && ./autom8

At this stage the system is fully installed and configured.

You can now browsing to the Fabric8 web console via http://fabric8.example.com with the following credentials:

1. username: admin
2. password: admin

To configure new users login into the vitual machine and execute the following:

htpasswd -b /etc/openshift/users.htpasswd <user> <password>

The Kojak virtual machine is configured with a set of default options.

1. OS: CentOS 7
2. Hostname: master.example.com
3. IP Adress: 192.168.122.100
4. Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

You can access the virtual machine via ssh at 192.168.122.100 using the following credentials:

1. username: root
2. password: root

Execute the autom8-diag script and send the output via a github ticket.
