The management Node, namely the Ironic Node, is a mapping object of a bare metal Node in the Ironic.
As a further introduction to the corresponding embodiment of fig. 1, the above embodiment may create a corresponding ironic port for the smart network card by: acquiring network card information of the intelligent network card by calling an interface of the network card agent, and creating a corresponding ironic port for the intelligent network card according to the network card information; the network card information comprises an MAC address, a representative port name and an intelligent network card host name.
Further, after the bare metal node is controlled to upload hardware information to a cloud platform through the instect network, the Neutron port can be deleted, and the representative port is removed from the OVS bridge by calling an interface of the network card proxy.
The flow described in the above embodiment is explained below by an embodiment in practical use.
The ironic project of OpenStack provides bare metal services, managing the lifecycle of bare metal, i.e., the management of the entire state flow from registration management to installation deployment of the system. Before the cloud platform can use bare metal resources, hardware information collection needs to be carried out on the bare metal, so that support is provided for resource classification, hardware identification and network automatic control of the bare metal.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a hardware information checking process of an OpenStack generic network card according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, where the hardware information checking process includes: register bare metal with Ironic, manage bare metal, and inspect bare metal. The process of inspecting bare metal includes: and calling an inspection interface of the Ironic-indicator, calling the interface to restart the bare metal node, and issuing an ipmi command to the bare metal node so as to restart the bare metal node. And after the bare metal node is restarted, the bare metal node is guided to enter a memory file system by using PXE, and hardware information is acquired by using the pre-configured DHCP, TFTP and HTTP services. The bare metal node reports the check data (namely hardware information) through an Ironic-python-agent (IPA), and the Ironic-analyzer updates the bare metal node to the Ironic.
The process of Ironics managing bare metal with a common network card comprises the following steps:
1) an ironic node is registered with the IPMI address, username, password of BMC using bare metal. The information is driving information for managing the bare metal.
2) And trying to acquire the on-off state of the bare metal by issuing an IPMI command, verifying whether the bare metal can be normally managed, and converting to the management state if the bare metal can be acquired.
3) In the management state, calling the interface of the ironic triggers the ironic to check the hardware information of the bare metal.
Wherein, the process of checking hardware information comprises: the ironic calls an interface of an ironic-inductor to check bare metal; and calling an ironic interface by an ironic-inductor, setting the bare metal node as network start, restarting the bare metal, and issuing an ipmi command by the ironic to realize the action. The bare metal node carries out PXE, pulls the BootLoader from the pre-configured DHCP, TFTP and HTTP services, guides the memory file system by the BootLoader, and automatically starts IPA. The IPA executes a series of hardware inspection tasks, such as inquiring the BMC address of the bare metal node and the MAC address of each network card and capturing an LLDP message; and inquiring information such as a CPU, a memory, a local disk, a starting mode and the like. And calling an interface of an ironic-inductor to report the data. The method comprises the steps that an ironic-inductor service identifies a UUID of a bare metal node according to a BMC address of reported data, calls a node update interface of the ironic, updates the reported data to the ironic node, and namely creates an ironic port according to each MAC address information; and updating information such as the CPU, the memory, the disk and the like into the attribute of the node.
IPA (isopropyl-propyl-agent) is installed in a memory file system, a bare metal node is booted from a PXE (preboot execution environment) boot into the memory file system, and IPA self-boot executes a series of tasks. The Ironic-analyzer is a bare metal inspection service in OpenStack and is used for inspecting bare metal, processing data reported by bare metal IPA and updating the bare metal. In the above flow, the PXE network of the bare metal may be configured with a switch to be opened in advance, so that the flow may implement the PXE reporting data of the bare metal.
A typical application of the intelligent network card is bare metal under a cloud platform. The PF port of bare metal has a rep port representing the port in the arm system, and the flow entering and exiting the rep port enters and exits the PF port. How to elegantly realize the inspection and deployment process of bare metal provided with an intelligent network card does not have a better scheme in the industry.
Please refer to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of a hardware collection scheme of bare metal under a cloud computing platform, where tftp (virtual File Transfer protocol) is a simple File Transfer protocol, http (hyper Text Transfer protocol) is a hypertext Transfer protocol, OVS is OpenvSwitch, bm-deployment is network deployment, NIC is a port, oob-net NIC is an out-of-band data Transfer layer protocol, ovn-controller is a controller of a virtual network interface software SDN open source project, rep is a representative port of a smart network card, PF is a port of a bare metal node, bmc (baseband controller), i.e., a substrate Management controller, a small operating system independent of a server, and supporting ipmi protocol, which is used for out-of-band Management of bare metal, according to an embodiment of the present application. PF (physical function) is a concept in SR-IOV technology (Single Root I/O Virtualization). The SR-IOV is mainly used for simulating one physical device into a plurality of virtual devices, wherein each virtual device can be bound with one virtual machine, so that the virtual machines can conveniently access the same physical device. SR-IOV introduced two new PCIe functions: (1) PF: the full-Function PCIe Function includes SR-IOV Extended Capability. This Capability is used to configure and manage the functions of the SR-IOV; (2) VF: some of the lightweight PCIe functions contain only the minimum configurable resources necessary for data movement. The representative port rep (netdev register) is a way for the intelligent network card to simulate bare metal to measure PF and VF, and each PF and VF of bare metal can simulate a network device in an Arm system, for example, PF0 measured by bare metal is simulated as PF0hpf in an Arm system.
The embodiment provides a software Agent SmartNic-Bm-Agent installed in an Arm system of an intelligent network card. The software agent provides an interface of Restful to the outside based on a python flash framework, and is used for supporting the ironic service call and achieving the connection of an instect network. The embodiment also designs an overall flow design of the cloud computing platform for checking the bare metal node, namely that the ironic reads an intelligent network card management port address of the node from a database in the insert process, calls an interface provided by an agent, reads intelligent network card information to create an ironic port, creates a neutron port and inserts a rep port into an ovs network bridge, so that the insert network is communicated, the bare metal node is supported to normally conduct PXE (PCI extensions for instrumentation) guide memory file system from the insert network, and the hardware information is checked.
Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a flowchart of a hardware information collection scheme of bare metal installed with an intelligent network card under a cloud computing platform according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, where this embodiment may support a bare metal node installed with an intelligent network card to automatically collect hardware information under cloud computing, an agent installed in the intelligent network card in this embodiment provides a reset full interface to control a rep port, and this embodiment further provides a process of ironic registering and checking the bare metal node installed with the intelligent network card, so that ironic automatically issues a flow table through an instance network managed by neutron to open the instance network. As shown in fig. 4, the process of collecting hardware information is as follows: register bare metal with ironic, manage bare metal, and inspect bare metal. If the bare metal node is powered off, the ironic sends an ipmi command downwards to enable the bare metal node to be powered on, and the ironic calls the intelligent network card proxy API interface 1 to obtain information of the PF port, information of the rep port and the name of the intelligent network card host. Ironic creates a port corresponding to the smart network card. And the Ironic creates a port corresponding to the intelligent network card, and creates a neutron port by the Ironic port of the smart network card smartnic and binds the neutron port to the node of the intelligent network card. The Ironic calls the API (application program interface) 2 of the intelligent network card proxy to connect the rep port plug to the OVS bridge. The Ironic calling interface checks the bare metal for the Ironic-isolator, and issues an ipmi command to the bare metal node to restart the bare metal node. And after the bare metal node is restarted, the bare metal node is guided to enter a memory file system by using PXE, and hardware information is acquired by using the pre-configured DHCP, TFTP and HTTP services. The bare metal node reports the check data (namely hardware information) through an Ironic-python-agent (IPA), and the Ironic-analyzer updates the bare metal node to the Ironic. Ironic deletes the created neutron port, calls smart network card proxy API interface 3 to remove the rep port from the OVS bridge unprugs.
The method and the device can support automatic check of hardware information of the bare metal node provided with the intelligent network card, solve the problems that an intelligent network card ironic port needs to be created manually and an insert network needs to be opened manually, provide a restful interface externally, can be conveniently called and extend the needed interface by the ironic, realize insertion/removal of the ironic to a rep port, synchronously extend and support the deployment process of bare metal, and have strong extensibility.
Specifically, the embodiment may configure a host name and a network for the bare metal intelligent network card installation system, and install and operate the necessary components OVS and ovn-controller. And installing and operating the agent smartnic-bm-agent in an arm system, and configuring the agent smartnic-bm-agent as a boot self-starting. The proxy provides three interfaces: the interface 1 is used for acquiring network card information of the intelligent network card: the SmartNic-Bm-Agent acquires the MAC address of the PF, the name of a representative port rep (namely a representative port) and the host name of an intelligent network card Arm system and returns the information; interface 2 is used to plug a representative port into the OVS bridge: SmartNic-Bm-Agent obtains the name of the representative port and the name of the OVS bridge from the request, calls the open source python library of os-vif, and inserts the representative port into the bridge of the OVS. The interface is matched with the creation and binding of a neutron port to an Arm system, so that the flow table can be issued, and the check network can be opened; interface 3 is used to remove the representative port from the OVS bridge, and the smartnic-Bm-Agent retrieves the representative port name from the request, invokes the OVS-vif interface, and removes the representative port from the OVS bridge. The interface can realize the release of the representative port and the reset of the network.
Create a neutron managed vxlan network as the Ironic's instance network and add a configuration item to the Ironic service, neutron _ network. When a node is created in registration of the ironic, whether the identifier of the inserted _ smart is installed in bare metal is increased, and the ip address of the management port of the intelligent network card is added and stored in a database.
In the case of an inspection node of ironic, the design inspection flow is as follows:
and the ironic checks whether the bare machine is started or not, if the bare machine is shut down, an ipmi command is issued to start the bare metal, and the smartnic is also powered on. And the ironic calls an interface 1 of the smart-bm-agent to acquire the MAC (media access control), the rep port name and the intelligent network card host name of the PF, and thus an ironic port is created, and the port is represented as an intelligent network card port. The ironic calls a neutron interface, creates a neutron port with vnic _ type as smart-nic on the insert network, binds to an intelligent network card Arm system (binding: host _ id as Arm system hostname), and updates the rep port name to the binding property of the neutron port. The ironic calls interface 2 of smart-bm-agent to plug the rep port onto the bridge of the OVS. ovn-controller will thus detect the ovs bridge change and issue the logical flow table of the control plane onto ovs, opening the instance network. And the ironic issues an ipmi command to restart the bare metal node, the bare metal node performs normal PXE from the insert network, the bare metal node is guided to enter a memory file system, and the IPA collects data and reports the data to the ironic-insert. The ironic-initiator updates the collected data to node, and the ironic deletes the neutron port. The ironic calls interface 3 of smartnic-bm-agent, removing the rep port from the ovs bridge. Further, interface 2 and interface 3 of the proxy can be called during the deployment process to manage the rep port. ipmi refers to a set of computer interface specifications for out-of-band management, which refers to accessing a computer system without being in the same room as the physical assets of the system.
The embodiment provides a bare metal proxy SmartNic-Bm-Agent which is installed on an intelligent network card and provides a Restful interface, wherein in the checking process, an ironic calls an interface to acquire the information of the intelligent network card and controls the insertion and removal of a rep port, and an instect network is automatically switched on and reset in a manner of creating/deleting a neutron port under the management of a neutron, so that the PXE network switching in the bare metal instect process is supported.
