.

ESC with Single and Dual Interface

To install ESC in CSP, you must create the user-data in the following format as the day0 configuration file:

A sample for single interface describing the day zero file as config drive and user data is as follows:

Creating ESC passwords to use in Day0 Files

98

Cisco Elastic Services Controller 5.4 Install and Upgrade Guide

Installing Cisco Elastic Services Controller on Cisco Cloud Services Platform 2100

Installing the Elastic Services Controller Instance in CSP 2100

When using the Cloud-Init day0 file to deploy an ESC instance, the passwords must be passed in as a hash, and not a plain text.

To create a hashed password, use the mkpasswd tool. The following example shows how to use the mkpasswd tool to create a hashed password.

~$ mkpasswd --method=SHA-512 --rounds=4096

Password:

$6$rounds=4096$Yo11pRsFO$iT5SGMJ6z8WEnmj8TKMdInblgWeb/UChmrsQs3aspx8j.yUuuhxKk2XScOkerWWxpqD5F0sLfC5kzT5t2xGkL1

Procedure

Step 1

Step 2

Upload user-data file to CSP

To deploy ESC, the user-data file must be first uploaded to the CSP node.

Note The path to upload images and day0 files is: /osp/repository scp user-data-esc admin@<CSP_IP_ADDRESS>:/osp/repository

Deploying ESC VM

You must edit configuration to be sent to the CSP node hosting the ESC VM.

Following is the deployment datamodel for single interface. For dual interface, you have two interfaces.

<name>ESC-SA-2-IF</name>

<?xml version="1.0"?>

Sending Configuration

Use a netconf-console (shipped with ConfD) to deploy ESC on a CSP node.

$ netconf-console --port=2022 --host=<CSP_IP_ADDRESS> --user=CSP_ADMIN_USERNAME

--password=CSP_ADMIN_PASSWORD --edit-config=deployESCHA1.xml

If HA, repeat the command with the configuration for the second ESC.

Configuring the VIM Connector

After ESC has booted, configure the VIM Connectors.

When installing ESC in CSP, no VIM connectors are added by default. To manage VNFs, you must create the VIM connector.

Adding the VIM Connectors

For more information on configuring VIM connectors after installation, and managing VIM connectors, see

Managing VIM Connectors in the Cisco Elastic Services Controller User Guide .

ESC HA Active/Standby Installation

To install ESC in CSP, you must create the user-data in the following format as the day0 configuration file.

For HA, you must define one file for each VM.

For creating ESC passwords to use in Day0 Files, see the Creating ESC passwords to use in Day0 Files section.

A sample for ESC HA Active/Standby installation on node 1 describing the day zero file as config drive and user data is as follows: user-data sample - HA Node 1

#cloud-config users:

- name: admin gecos: admin

# The user's login name

# The user name's real name groups: esc-user # add admin to group esc-user passwd: $6$saltsalt$9PDBehueUG4XTLEj6BFZA5MDGh/XeQ6QPbf9HYLU3RifHj1

# The hash -- not the password itself -- of the password you want

# to use for this user. You can generate a safe hash via:

# mkpasswd --method=SHA-512 --rounds=4096 lock-passwd: false # Defaults to true. Lock the password to disable password login

# Set to false if you want to password login homedir: /home/admin # Optional. Set to the local path you want to use. Defaults to

/home/<username> sudo: ALL=(ALL) ALL # Defaults to none. Set to the sudo string you want to use ssh_pwauth: True # Defaults to False. Set to True if you want to enable password

List of Variables Used in CSP 2100 Sample Files

Step 4

Step 5

Use a netconf-console (shipped with ConfD) to deploy ESC on a CSP node.

$ netconf-console --port=2022 --host=<CSP_IP_ADDRESS> --user=<CSP_ADMIN_USERNAME>

--password=<CSP_ADMIN_PASSWORD> --edit-config=deployESC-HA-1.xml

$ netconf-console --port=2022 --host=<CSP_IP_ADDRESS> --user=<CSP_ADMIN_USERNAME>

--password=<CSP_ADMIN_PASSWORD> --edit-config=deployESC-HA-2.xml

Configuring the VIM Connector

After ESC has booted, configure the VIM Connectors.

When installing ESC in CSP, no VIM connectors are added by default. To manage VNFs, you must create the VIM connector.

Adding the VIM Connectors

For more information on configuring VIM connectors after installation, and managing VIM connectors, see

Managing VIM Connectors in the Cisco Elastic Services Controller User Guide .
