Configuration files which are standardized in all configuration repositories

Generic configuration files

environments/configuration directory

The configuration repository needs to be synchronized regularly with this repository to obtain any updates. It contains in particular the directory environments/manager, which is needed to initially build the manager node, and is updated on a regular basis.

If there are errors when rebuilding an environment, such as a missing Ansible role, you should first try synchronizing before time-consuming debugging.

The value for MANAGER_VERSION is stored in environments/manager/configuration.yml in the manager_version parameter.

Synchronization has to be performed when updating to a new version. In this case, MANAGER_VERSION will be set to the new version.

The following commands are executed within the root directory of the configuration repository.

virtualenv -p python3 venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
MANAGER_VERSION=1.0.0 gilt overlay

After synchronization, check for changes in the configuration repository.

git status

If there are any changes, review and commit them.

git diff
git add .
git commit

inventory directory

The general hostgroups for Ansible available in OSISM are stored in the inventory directory. These files are included in the individual container images, such as the inventory reconciler. The files in this directory are not intended to be included directly in a configuration repository.
