SCinet perfSONAR Deployment Workbench

This project contains infrastructure for running a mockup of the SCinet perfSONAR deployment on VMs.

More to come...

SCinet Setup

On each perfSONAR host (controller, publisher, archive, dashboard and testpoints), install a minimal CentOS 7. Do not take any other steps to secure the machine.

Log onto the controller as root and do the following:

• yum -y install git
• git clone https://github.com/mfeit-internet2/scinet-perfsonar (TODO: Change this)
• cd scinet-perfsonar
• TODO: Edit ansible inventory in ansible/inentory-scinet
• Populate mesh/booth-mesh/booths-scinet/scinet-booths.csv and ``mesh/booth-mesh/booths-scinet/scinet-vlans.csv` with data from the intranet. Note that this currently requires some hand massaging. That will be remedied.
• make phase1

Still on the controller, repeat the following for each of the non-controller hosts:

• scp build-ansible-account ssh/id_rsa.pub root@HOST-NAME
• ssh root@HOST-NAME -c "sh ./build-ansible-account id_rsa.pub"

Still on the controller:

• Run make phase2.

Development (Vagrant VM) Setup

• Edit the hosts and gateway variables in the Vagrantfile` to run on VMs. Note that the VMs' network configurations are specific to Internet2's perfSONAR development farm and will likely be different on your system.

• make vagrant

• Add SSH public key to the ssh/user-keys directory, one per file. All of these will be authorized to log into the ansible account.

• Update the list of DNOCs in mesh/booth-mesh/dnocs.json for the current year's NOC and DNOCs.

• Populate mesh/booth-mesh/booths-scinet/scinet-booths.csv and ``mesh/booth-mesh/booths-scinet/scinet-vlans.csv` with data from the intranet. Note that this currently requires some hand massaging. That will be remedied.
