Appendix C: Minor upgrades

Upgrades between minor versions of OpenStack-Ansible are handled by updating the repository clone to the latest tag, then executing playbooks against the target hosts.

A minor upgrade typically requires the execution of the following:

  1. Change directory into the repository clone root directory:

    # cd /opt/openstack-ansible
    
  2. Update the git remotes:

    # git fetch --all
    
  3. Checkout the latest tag (the below tag is an example):

    # git checkout 13.0.1
    
  4. Update all the dependent roles to the latest versions:

    # ./scripts/bootstrap-ansible.sh
    
  5. Change into the playbooks directory:

    # cd playbooks
    
  6. Update the hosts:

    # openstack-ansible setup-hosts.yml
    
  7. Update the infrastructure:

    # openstack-ansible -e rabbitmq_upgrade=true \
        setup-infrastructure.yml
    
  8. Update all OpenStack services:

    # openstack-ansible setup-openstack.yml
    

Note

Scope upgrades to specific OpenStack components by executing each of the component playbooks using groups.

For example:

  1. Update only the Compute hosts:

    # openstack-ansible os-nova-install.yml --limit nova_compute
    
  2. Update only a single Compute host:

    Note

    Skipping the nova-key tag is necessary as the keys on all Compute hosts will not be gathered.

    # openstack-ansible os-nova-install.yml --limit <node-name> \
        --skip-tags 'nova-key'
    

To see which hosts belong to which groups, the inventory-manage.py script shows all groups and their hosts. For example:

  1. Change directory into the repository clone root directory:

    # cd /opt/openstack-ansible
    
  2. Show all groups and which hosts belong to them:

    # ./scripts/inventory-manage.py -G
    
  3. Show all hosts and which groups they belong:

    # ./scripts/inventory-manage.py -g
    

To see which hosts a playbook will execute against, and to see which tasks will execute.

  1. Change directory into the repository clone playbooks directory:

    # cd /opt/openstack-ansible/playbooks
    
  2. See the hosts in the nova_compute group which a playbook executes against:

    # openstack-ansible os-nova-install.yml --limit nova_compute \
                                            --list-hosts
    
  3. See the tasks which will be executed on hosts in the nova_compute group:

    # openstack-ansible os-nova-install.yml --limit nova_compute \
                                            --skip-tags 'nova-key' \
                                            --list-tasks
