ansible-clustercontrol's Introduction

Ansible Role: ClusterControl

Installs and configures Severalnines ClusterControl on RHEL/CentOS or Debian/Ubuntu servers. It also supports deploy a new cluster and import existing cluster into ClusterControl automatically.

Overview

Installs ClusterControl for your new database node/cluster deployment or on top of your existing database node/cluster. ClusterControl is a management and automation software for database clusters. It helps deploy, monitor, manage and scale your database cluster.

Supported database clusters:

  • MySQL/MariaDB Replication
  • Percona XtraDB Cluster
  • MariaDB Cluster (Galera)
  • MySQL Cluster
  • MongoDB Replica Set
  • MongoDB Sharded Cluster
  • PostgreSQL Streaming Replication
  • TimescaleDB Streaming Replication

More details at Severalnines website.

Requirements

Make sure you meet following criteria prior to the deployment:

  • ClusterControl node must run on a clean dedicated host with internet connection.
  • If you are running as non-root user, make sure the user is able to escalate to root with sudo command.

Installation

  1. Get the ClusterControl Ansible role from Ansible Galaxy or Github.

Ansible Galaxy (always stable from master branch):

ansible-galaxy install severalnines.clustercontrol

Github:

(master branch)

git clone https://github.com/severalnines/ansible-clustercontrol
cp -rf ansible-clustercontrol /etc/ansible/roles/severalnines.clustercontrol
  1. Create playbooks. Refer to the Example Playbook section or examples directory.

  2. Run the playbook.

ansible-playbook example-playbook.yml

Usage

The role is capable to perform the following:

  • Install ClusterControl only
  • Install ClusterControl with automatic deployment:
    • Create a new database cluster
    • Add existing database cluster

Install ClusterControl only

If you would like to install ClusterControl only, just call the severalnines.clustercontrol role as the following in the playbook:

- hosts: clustercontrol-server
  roles:
    - { role: severalnines.clustercontrol }

Or, tag it with controller:

- hosts: clustercontrol-server
  roles:
    - { role: severalnines.clustercontrol, tags: controller }

For sudo user, use become:

- hosts: clustercontrol-server
  become: yes
  roles:
    - { role: severalnines.clustercontrol }

The above is similar to the standard ClusterControl installation using install-cc script available in our website. Once the playbook is executed, open ClusterControl UI at http://{ClusterControl_host}/clustercontrol and create the admin user by using email address and password.

Using Vault in playbooks

The following example shows the steps to use Ansible Vault to encrypt the mysql_root_password and cmon_mysql_password configured on the ClusterControl host.

  • mysql_root_password: myrootsecret
  • cmon_mysql_password: cmonpassw0rd
  1. Create a password file to encrypt variables on the host where the playbook resides, called password-file:
$ echo -n 'thisismysecrettoencrypt' > password-file
  1. Generate the Vault value for mysql_root_password variable using the same password file:
$ echo -n 'myrootsecret' | ansible-vault encrypt_string --vault-id dev@password-file --stdin-name 'mysql_root_password'
Reading plaintext input from stdin. (ctrl-d to end input)
mysql_root_password: !vault |
          $ANSIBLE_VAULT;1.2;AES256;dev
          34643531626238366432363932353565336639396661326638393365343031373838666236353661

          6562
Encryption successful
  1. Generate the Vault value for cmon_mysql_password variable using the same password file:
$ echo -n 'cmonpassw0rd' | ansible-vault encrypt_string --vault-id dev@password-file --stdin-name 'cmon_mysql_password'
Reading plaintext input from stdin. (ctrl-d to end input)
cmon_mysql_password: !vault |

  1. Run the playbook with correct vault ID:
$ ansible-playbook --vault-id=dev@password-file deploy-cc.yml

Variables you may want to encrypt in this role:

  1. mysql_root_password
  2. cmon_mysql_password
  3. cc_ldap -> admin_password
  4. cc_admin -> password
  5. cc_license -> key

Example playbook with Ansible Vault on sensitive variables as mentioned above:

- hosts: clustercontrol
  roles:
  - { role: severalnines.clustercontrol, tags: controller }
  vars:
    mysql_root_password: !vault |

        group_dn: "ou=Group,dc=severalnines,dc=com"

Once the playbook is executed, open ClusterControl UI at http://{ClusterControl_host}/clustercontrol and login with the settings defined under cc_admin section.

Install ClusterControl with automatic deployment

The role also supports automatic database deployment by leveraging the CMON RPC interface. This will minimize the deployment time to get your database cluster up and running. Example playbook for automatic deployment in AWS EC2 can be found here.

Consider the following inside /etc/ansible/hosts:

[clustercontrol]
192.168.55.100

[galera]
192.168.55.171
192.168.55.172
192.168.55.173

[mysql-replication]
192.168.55.204
192.168.55.205

The following playbook will install ClusterControl on 192.168.55.100, setup passwordless SSH on Galera and MySQL replication nodes, then post create/add job into ClusterControl for the deployment:

- hosts: clustercontrol
  roles:
  - { role: severalnines.clustercontrol, tags: controller }

- hosts:
    - mysql-replication
    - galera
  roles:
    - { role: severalnines.clustercontrol, tags: dbnodes }

** Take note the following tags in the role lines:

  • no tag (default) - Install ClusterControl
  • dbnode - For all managed nodes to setup passwordless SSH
  • deploy-database - To deploy database after ClusterControl is installed

Variables are mostly similar to keys in JSON job command created in ClusterControl's Cluster Job. If a key:value is not specified, the default value is used.

If you would like to use non-root user to as ClusterControl's SSH user, ensure the user has ability to escalate as super user via sudo. Example playbook for Ubuntu 12.04 with sudo password enabled:

- hosts: [email protected]
  become: yes
  become_user: root
  roles:
    - { role: severalnines.clustercontrol }

Then, execute the command with --ask-become-pass flag.

Role Variables

Available variables are listed below, along with default values (see defaults/main.yml):

MySQL and CMON on ClusterControl node

mysql_root_password: password

  • The MySQL root user account password. ClusterControl will setup the MySQL root user with this password during the installation.

mysql_root_username: root

  • The MySQL super user account username. It's recommended to keep the default.

cmon_mysql_password: cmon

  • The MySQL password for user 'cmon'. ClusterControl requires this MySQL user to access the CMON database.

cmon_mysql_port: 3306

  • ClusterControl will install MySQL/MariaDB server to listen on this port, and ClusterControl applications will be configured accordingly.

cmon_ssh_user: root

  • ClusterControl will generate an SSH key for this user.

cmon_ssh_key_path: /root/.ssh/id_rsa

  • Location of SSH key file generated for cmon_ssh_user. The default value is /root/.ssh/id_rsa corresponds to the default cmon_ssh_user. For non-root user, specify /home/[user]/.ssh/id_rsa instead.

Admin Credentials and License

At the moment, the following options are configurable for ClusterControl. All of them are self-explanatory so we leave it with no description (default is set: false).

Example usage:

cc_admin:
  - set: true
    email: "[email protected]"
    password: "test123"
cc_license:
  - set: true
    email: "[email protected]"
    company: "Severalnines"
    expired_date: "31/12/2016"
    key: "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"

It's highly recommended to use Ansible Vault to store confidential information in the playbook. See 'Using Vault in playbooks' section.

LDAP Settings

If you would like to integrate LDAP authentication (OpenLDAP, Active Directory, FreeIPA) with ClusterControl, define the settings here with set: true and enabled: 1:

cc_ldap:
  - set: true
    enabled: 1
    host: "192.168.1.100"
    port: 389
    base_dn: "dc=mydomain,dc=com"
    admin_dn: "cn=admin,dc=mydomain,dc=com"
    admin_password: "password"
    user_dn: "ou=People,dc=mydomain,dc=com"
    group_dn: "ou=Group,dc=mydomain,dc=com"

It's highly recommended to use Ansible Vault to store confidential information in the playbook. See 'Using Vault in playbooks' section.

host: {FQDN or LDAPS URL}

  • The LDAP server hostname or IP address. To use LDAP over SSL/TLS, specify LDAP URI instead, for example ldaps://LDAP_host.

port: 389

  • Default to null. Specify the LDAP server port.

base_dn: {distinguished name}

  • The root LDAP node under which all other nodes exist in the directory structure.

admin_dn: {distinguished name}

  • The distinguished name used to bind to the LDAP server. This is often the administrator or manager user. It can also be a dedicated login with minimal access that should be able to return the DN of the authenticating users. ClusterControl must do an LDAP search using this DN before any user can log in. This field is case-sensitive.

admin_password: {string}

  • The password for the binding user specified in admin_dn.

user_dn: {distinguished name}

  • The user’s relative distinguished name (RDN) used to bind to the LDAP server. For example, if the LDAP user DN is CN=userA,OU=People,DC=ldap,DC=domain,DC=com, specify OU=People,DC=ldap,DC=domain,DC=com. This field is case-sensitive.

groupd_dn: {distinguished name}

  • The group’s relative distinguished name (RDN) used to bind to the LDAP server. For example, if the LDAP group DN is CN=DBA,OU=Group,DC=ldap,DC=domain,DC=com, specify OU=Group,DC=ldap,DC=domain,DC=com. This field is case-sensitive.

Create new database cluster

Supported create new database cluster:

  • Galera cluster
  • MySQL replication

data_center: 0

  • Exclusive for Galera cluster. Specify the gmcast.segment number to distinguish the geographical location.

disable_firewall: true

  • Whether to enable or disable firewall. Set to false if you have opened required ports for specific cluster.
