influxdata / ansible-influxdb-enterprise Goto Github PK

With the changes introduced in #8, single node deployments
are broken, or running the meta-service on the same host as the data-service.

This is because once the meta node is in the list of cluster members, the second pass check for the data-node fails and is never added to the cluster.

The package installation steps should use our official package repositories, this will make the install steps idempotent and speed up Ansible runs.

Using this role users should be able to create databases users and permissions.

Could you please clarify how adding node to cluster is intended to work, specifically:

• How delegate_to login was designed to work
  • Which credentials are we supposed to be using to login to the 'slave' nodes?
  • Currently it seems to me that I have to maintain ssh creds, so the leader can access 'slaves'.
  • What happens if the leader goes down, how do we handle that in Ansible (since we set the leader manually via influx_meta_cluster_leader)
• ansible_hostname is not very reliable, as it may (and will) contain non-fqdn address on AWS and other cloud systems - like ip-10-10-10-10 which won't work across different domains/networks. Any objections to change it to inventory_hostname which will virtually guarantee network accessibility?

Mainly curious about the design intent here.

Thanks

There are many places where quotes are used, although they are redundant in YAML. For instance:
owner: 'influxdb'

I propose to clean it up.

I am building an influx cluster in AWS and when I try a node(private instance) to the cluster, I am getting the following error, "add-meta: operation exited with error: no leader". I am not sure what is causing this error. Any ideas?

Thank you for maintaining this Ansible role, but It's highly inconvenient not to be able to require this role / version from requirements.yml as well as not being able to control versioning.

All you need is to make sure directories like roles, defaults etc are located in the root of the repo.

So I suggest that you create influxdata/ansible-influxdb-enterprise with this structure and submodule it into influxdata/ansible if needed.

(For now I will be using it from here https://github.com/kireevco/ansible-influxdb-enterprise)

Hello. What are the plans to deploy enterprise web ui application?
By chance, is it going to be part of this role, is it going to be a docker image or none of the above?

Thank you.
