Yarnman Deployment
Setup Process
Steps | Purpose | Notes | Dependancies | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Deploy OVA | Deploy all yarnman virtual machines | ||
| 2 | Set IP address | Set static IP address for yarnman | ||
| 3 | Generate Certificates | Generate service container certificates | If changes are required at this step the script can be started | |
| 4 | Install yarnman | Install yarnman and initialise system | If changes are required at this step the script can be started | |
| 5 | Encrypt configuration | Encrypt keys and config using clevis/tang | The other nodes must be deployed and initalised before this step can be performed | |
| 6 | Local node customisation | Customise local node | ||
| 7 | Enable Couchd clustering | Only required for clustered yarnman deployments | Local node customisation |
Deploy Yarnman OVA
1. Deploy yarnman OVA to VMware
Yarnman ova can be depoyed either using VMware OVFtool or by uploading the ova to vSphere/ESXi
OVA file format yarnman-ph4-<version>-<build>.ova
| Note |
|---|
Note that this file format may change |
| Info |
|---|
If using Ovftool to deploy
|
2. Using VMware Console log into Yarnman to bootstrap configuration
1. login to to yarnman using the VMware console
| Info |
|---|
Default username: root Password: yarnman |
Note that you will be prompted to change the root password on first login, note that the root account cannot be used for SSH
2. Set the static ip and other network settings
| Code Block |
|---|
root@yarnman [ ~ ]# ym-set-static-ip.sh Do you want to set a static IP? Y or Ny set static Please, select a network interface from the numberic index: 0 eth0 1 docker0 0 Selected eth0 *** Please enter the following details: *** Hostname: yarnman-test IP Address: 10.101.10.37 Netmask Bits: 24 Gateway: 10.101.10.1 DNS: 10.101.205.200 Domain: lab.yarnlab.io NTP: 10.101.205.200 |
3. Confirm Network Settings
| Code Block |
|---|
Applying the following configuration: Interface = eth0 Hostname = yarnman-test IP Address = 10.101.10.37 Netmask = 24 Gateway = 10.101.10.1 DNS = 10.101.205.200 Domain = lab.yarnlab.io NTP = 10.101.205.200 Is this correct? Y or N |
Console output from previous set - no action required
| Code Block |
|---|

4. Set the password for the yarnman user
This user is used for ssh with a userid of yarnman
| Code Block |
|---|
yarnman user not found adding now Set yarnman password New password: BAD PASSWORD: The password is shorter than 8 characters New password: Retype new password: passwd: password updated successfully Adding yarnman-user to SSH allowed groups |
5. If certificates are not present the script will ask the user to automatically generate local certificates
| Note |
|---|
These certificate are for local services and there is no advantage for using signed certificates - These are not the brower certificates |
| Code Block |
|---|
Certificates not present Do you want to generate certificates? Y or N |
Certificate verification
| Code Block |
|---|
Applying the following configuration: Certificate Duration Days = 3650 Certificate Country = AU Certificate State = NSW Certificate Location = yarnlab Certificate Organisation = yarnlab Certificate Common Name = yarnman-test.lab.yarnlab.io Certificate Alt Names = DNS:yarnman-test.local,IP:10.101.10.37 Is this correct? Y or N |
| Info |
|---|
If you dont accept the certificate you can use the script ym-generate-certs.sh |
Certificate generation output
| Code Block |
|---|
Cenerating Certificates Generating yarnman rootCA Generating Certificates for registry Certificate request self-signature ok subject=C = AU, ST = NSW, L = yarnlab, O = yarnlab, CN = yarnman-test.lab.yarnlab.io writing RSA key Generating Certificates for couchdb Certificate request self-signature ok subject=C = AU, ST = NSW, L = yarnlab, O = yarnlab, CN = yarnman-test.lab.yarnlab.io writing RSA key Certificates Generated Yarnman local.yaml is not present |
6. If yarnman has not been installed the script will prompt to set the database password for yarnman
| Code Block |
|---|
Yarnman local.yaml is not present Do you want to install yarnman? Y or Ny Install Yarnman Set Couch DB password: Couch password (again): |
| Info |
|---|
After setting the couch DB password there will be a large amount of console output and any 404 error log entries can be ignored e.g. 1660723081311 DEBUG CouchDB Exception: Bad response (404) trying to load yarnman-ucmc-schema-object '8971f9e766db0be257d35c8344c93f5df72eb0f1ed662e2a6fec5630870d2448' in couch. |
