Adopt the Placement service

To adopt the Placement service, you patch an existing OpenStackControlPlane custom resource (CR) that has the Placement service disabled. The patch starts the service with the configuration parameters that are provided by the Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) environment.

Before you begin

Procedure

Patch the OpenStackControlPlane CR to deploy the Placement service: 
$ oc patch openstackcontrolplane openstack --type=merge --patch '
spec:
  placement:
    enabled: true
    apiOverride:
      route: {}
    template:
      databaseInstance: openstack
      databaseAccount: placement
      secret: osp-secret
      override:
        service:
          internal:
            metadata:
              annotations:
                metallb.universe.tf/address-pool: internalapi
                metallb.universe.tf/allow-shared-ip: internalapi
                metallb.universe.tf/loadBalancerIPs: <172.17.0.80>
            spec:
              type: LoadBalancer
'

where:

<172.17.0.80>
Specifies the load balancer IP in your environment. If you use IPv6, change the load balancer IP to the load balancer IP in your environment, for example, metallb.universe.tf/loadBalancerIPs: fd00:bbbb::80.

Results

  • Check that the Placement service endpoints are defined and pointing to the control plane FQDNs, and that the Placement API responds: 
    $ alias openstack="oc exec -t openstackclient -- openstack"

$ openstack endpoint list | grep placement


# Without OpenStack CLI placement plugin installed:
$ PLACEMENT_PUBLIC_URL=$(openstack endpoint list -c 'Service Name' -c 'Service Type' -c URL | grep placement | grep public | awk '{ print $6; }')
$ oc exec -t openstackclient -- curl "$PLACEMENT_PUBLIC_URL"

# With OpenStack CLI placement plugin installed:
$ openstack resource class list
