Description SATHEESARAN 2019-12-04 07:47:46 UTC

Description of problem:
------------------------
Ansible playbooks are available to deploy RHHI-V in an unattend-fashion-of deployment. This means all the deployment happens only with command line interface and ansible inventory files + playbooks in place.

This was currently in a tech-preview with RHHI-V 1.6.
This bug is raised to full qualify this mode of installation to make it generally available for end users to consume for automated installation

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
--------------------------------------------------------------
RHHI-V 1.7

How reproducible:
------------------
Not applicable

Steps to Reproduce:
---------------------
Run the automated RHHI-V deployment using ansible inventories and playbooks

Expected results:
------------------
RHHI-V deployment should be completed

Comment 1 SATHEESARAN 2020-01-30 06:21:10 UTC

Tested with RHVH 4.3.8 + RHGS 3.5.1 ( glusterfs-6.0-29.el7rhgs ) with following gluster-ansible packages:
gluster-ansible-roles-1.0.5-7.el7rhgs.noarch
gluster-ansible-repositories-1.0.1-1.el7rhgs.noarch
gluster-ansible-maintenance-1.0.1-1.el7rhgs.noarch
gluster-ansible-features-1.0.5-5.el7rhgs.noarch
gluster-ansible-infra-1.0.4-5.el7rhgs.noarch
gluster-ansible-cluster-1.0-1.el7rhgs.noarch

RHHI-V deployment end-to-end deployment is successful with the following known_issues

1. Extra vars should be edited
Additional var 'he_ansible_host_name' should be removed and memory allocated for Hosted Engine VM ('he_mem_size_MB') should be 16GB (16348MB)
Bug: BZ1793398

2. Automated RHHI-V deployment fails for the first time
This is a known_issue. Happens due to gluster-eventsapi issue
Workaround: Re-attempt the Hosted Engine(HE) deployment alone
Bug: BZ1795928

3. Additional hosts are not added to the 'Default' virt cluster with capability to run HE VM
Again this becomes a known_issue
Workaround: Move the additional hosts to 'maintenance' and reinstall those in RHV Manager UI,
with 'HostedEngine=deploy'
Bug: BZ1796035
