Deploying the SMI Cluster Manager in AIl-In-One Mode

You can deploy the SMI Cluster Manager using the Inception Server on AIO mode. To deploy the SMI Cluster Manager:

  1. Login to the Inception Server and enter the configuration mode.

    • Add the configuration SMI Cluster Manager AIO configuration.

      Note
      • For deploying a single node SMI Cluster Manager on Bare Metal, add the SMI Cluster Manager AIO configuration defined for Bare Metal environments. A sample SMI Cluster Manager AIO configuration for Bare Metal environments is provided here.

      • For deploying a single node SMI Cluster Manager on VMware, add the SMI Cluster Manager AIO configuration defined for VMware environments. A sample SMI Cluster Manager AIO configuration for VMware environments is provided here.

      • For deploying a single node SMI Cluster Manager on VMware, add the SMI Cluster Manager AIO configuration defined for OpenStack environments. A sample SMI Cluster Manager AIO configuration for OpenStack environments is provided here.

    • Commit and exit the configuration

  2. Run the cluster synchronization

    clusters cluster_name actions sync run debug true
     
    • Monitor the progress of the synchronization

      monitor sync-logs cluster_name 
      Note

      The synchronization completes after 30 minutes approximately. The time taken for synchronization is based on network factors such as network speed, and VM power.

  3. Connect to the SMI Cluster Manager CLI after the synchronization completes

    ssh admin@cli.smi-cluster-deployer.<ipv4address>.<domain_name> -p <port_number> 

NOTES:

  • clusters cluster_name – Specifies the information about the nodes to be deployed. cluster_name is the name of the cluster.

  • actions – Specifies the actions performed on the cluster.

  • sync run – Triggers the cluster synchronization.

  • monitor sync-logs cluster_name - Monitors the cluster synchronization.
