Installing the Admin server

Prerequisites

The installation script assumes a installed and configured openSUSE Leap 15.3 x86_64 with Gnome desktop. My setup has two NIC and one wifi.

  • eth0 is connected to the lab switch, internal network
  • eth1 is going to be the external interface
  • wlan0 acts as a wireless access point to internal network

Installing

Clone this repository and run the update.sh script as a normal user with sudo permissions, the admin server needs access to Internet. The update script will run through several steps:

  • check prerequisites, if any packages needed to install/configure the admin server it will ask to install them.
  • salt-call, the main installation/configuration is done with a masterless salt-call. This step will apply the highstate
  • rmt sync, a sync with SUSE Customer Center will be performed
  • rmt enable products, this will enable the preconfigured products to sync with SCC
  • rmt mirror, mirror all enabled products
  • install tools, install latest versions of some additional tools into $HOME/bin, such as helm, kubctl, stern, virtctl, etc

customizing the setup.

The preconfigured defaults are located in the salt/pillar/*.sls files, you can override them by creating a salt/pillar/local.sls and specify your setting

⚠️ You need at least specify your SCC organization mirror credentials and your docker username and access token

rmt:
  scc:
    username: <SCC mirror credential username>
    password: <SCC mirror credential password>

docker:
  username: <Docker HUB username>
  access_token: XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXX

There's also a bunch of default passwords you might want to change, some examples:

  • WPA pass phrase for hostapd
  • root password for mariadb
  • CA certificate pass phrase for rancher
  • Bootstrap password for rancher
  • CA certificate pass phrase for rmt
  • DB password for rmt
  • TLU Harvester OS password
  • TLU Harvester admin password
  • TLU Harvester token
  • remote-desktop password

When you have made your changes just run

./update.sh

If you make changes in your salt/pillars/local.sls you can run the following to apply them

./update.sh --salt
