Deployment with Oracle Virtual Assembly



Traditional Application Deployment process – Multiple Steps including Hardware, OS, Prerequisites, Application

installation/configuration – Highly skilled manual work, time consuming and error prone – Duplicated efforts and very hard to automate – Hardly adapted for a cloud environment where an automatic

provisioning process is needed Oracle VM: Application-Driven Virtualization

– Applications running on virtual machines – VM template: pre-built, pre-configured virtual machine with OS +software stack – Oracle published VM templates for most Oracle products for download – You can create your own Oracle VM templates for your application – Easy to deploy through VM Manager and Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c.

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/vm/templates-101937.html



Oracle Virtual Assembly – Appliance: a single software component and its local execution :

environment, for example, database +OS – Assembly: a collection of interrelated software appliances that are

automatically configured to work together, for example, multiple tier application: Weblogic server + Database.

Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder Studio creates assemblies – The tool to capture the software configurations and package to

software appliances and connect them to form assemblies.

Introspect



Deploy Assembly on Virtual Environment – Through Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder Deployer

– Through Oracle VM Manager/Oracle Enterprise Manager by exporting the assembly achieve file to the Repository

– Deployed in an infrastructure cloud through Enterprise Manager

12c Self Service Portal (will be discussed in next session)


Infrastructure Cloud and Oracle EM12c

Oracle Infrastructure Cloud based on Virtualization – Enterprise Manager 12c provides full life cycle management of

Cloud – Infrastructure cloud and its management architecture


Infrastructure Cloud and Oracle EM12c

Deploying Applications on demand in Infrastructure cloud – Deploy Applications with assembly through Self service Portal

• Self Service Users request the deployment of applications

• Automated deployment using pre-created assemblies and templates


Oracle | Dell Joint Private Cloud POC Project


Oracle | Dell Joint Infrastructure Cloud Project

• Project Goal:

Reference configuration of Infrastructure Cloud on Dell platforms Create virtual assemblies by capturing installed applications Establish infrastructure cloud solution to achieve PaaS and IaaS based on the Self Service requests.

• Project Task Overview

Infrastructure Cloud Architecture Design

1 physical sever for VM Manager

1 physical server for Enterprise Manager


Oracle | Dell Joint Infrastructure Cloud Project

Fiber Channel Storage for Cloud storage:

• Cloud Virtualization and Management Software Stack Virtual Server: Oracle Virtual server 3.1.1 Virtual Environment Manager: Oracle VM Manager 3.1.1 Cloud Management: Oracle Enterprise Manager 12.1.0.2


Cloud Architecture Design and Configuration

• Hardware Architecture Layout

Software Installation: Oracle VM server 3.1.1, Oracle VM Manager, 3.1.1, Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c.


Cloud Architecture Design and configuration

Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c to manage the Infrastructure Cloud


Cloud Architecture Design and Configuration

• Deploy the Virtualization and cloud plug-in in EM12c



Register VM Manager on Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c. – Configure Secure TCP(TCPS) on VM Manager host (#1456338.1)

– Use tcps and

port 54322 port

for VM Manager

Registration



Configure Virtual Environment through VM Manager – Configure multiple networks – Configure shared storage and storage repository, server pool – Refer to Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Administration Guild 12c Release 2. E28814-01, March 2012 for details.


Creating Assembly with Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder(OVAB)


Creating Assembly with OVAB Tasks Overview Configure Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder (OVAB) Environment

– Configure an Oracle Linux 5U7 32 bit Virtual Machine – Meet the pre-installation requirements – Install and configure OVAB on the virtual machine

Create virtual assemblies for reference systems

– Introspect a reference system to create an assembly – Capture template and assembly archive – Export assembly achieve


Private Cloud Infrastructure Design





Creating Assembly with OVAB • Create a virtual machine for Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder(OVAB)

Download OVM_OL5U7_x86_PVM.ova and import into Repository

Create Oracle Linux 5U7 VM by deploying this assembly


Creating Assembly with OVAB • Meet prerequisites of OVAB installation

– Configure a Linux server using Oracle Linux 5u7 32 bit – Download software

• JeOS Base x86 and x86_64: ovm-modify-jeos-1.1.0-12.el5.noarch.rpm Oracle • Open-OVF : open-ovf-1.1-1.0.47.el5.1.noarch.rpm • OL_base_images: ofm_vab_11.1.1.6.0_sample_baseimage_oel_5.7_32bit.zip

copied to /u01/app/ovab/ab_instance1/templates/baseImages/OVM/OEL • ovab software: ofm_vab_linux_11.1.1.6.0_32_disk1_1of1_ovab.zip

Install ovab: ./runInstaller as oracle user


Creating Assembly with OVAB • Create an assembly by Introspecting a reference system

– Turn off firewall on the reference host: /etc/init.d/iptables stop – Start OVAB studio GUI: ./abstudio.sh – Start “Create Assembly wizard “ for creation of an assembly

– Introspect an appliance using the reference system

– Specify file sets to capture


Creating Assembly with OVAB – Complete file sets capture

– Add additional appliance – Edit an assembly

• Create templates and archive assembly


Creating Assembly with OVAB – Complete

template creation and Assembly Archiving

– Assembly Archive: mywlstest.ova file in OVAB host

– Export Assembly archive by copying this file to other locations

– Copy an Assembly Archive: .ova file


Creating Assembly with OVAB • Lessons learned

– Use -12th version ovm-modify-jeos-1.1.0-12.el5.noarch.rpm

– Need to shutdown firewall in the OVAB and reference host: [root@ovab Oracle_OVAB1]# service iptables stop

– Use root or other user with sudo to do interspect – Make sure you can connect to the reference system from OVAB host – Make sure you start the weblogic server before you do the introspect

– Export Assembly archive by copying this file to other locations

– Copy an Assembly Archive: .ova file


Deploy Assembly in Virtual Environment



Deploy Assembly on Virtual Environment – Through Oracle VM Manager or Enterprise Manager 12c

– Load Assembly into Repository Copy the assembly archive to OMS server: /var/www/html/0157

mailto:[email protected]:/var/www/html/0157


Deploy Assembly in Virtual Environment Deploy Assembly







Deploy Assembly in EM12c Self Service Portal


Deploy Assembly in EM12c Self Service Portal • Deploy assembly in Infrastructure Cloud

• Workflow – Cloud Administrator to setup Cloud structure: VM server, storage, Network, server pool, Software library, deployment – Self Service Administrator to setup the Self service portal Setup:

• Load the assembly into software library • Publish the assembly and make it available for self service users • Define VM seize, assign Quota to users/roles, define access boundary

– Self Service Users to use Self Service Portal to request service • Deploy Applications through templates/assembly by requesting the application virtual machines • Managing and monitoring of virtual machines and resource usages


Deploy Assembly in EM12c Self Service Portal • Load assembly into software library

– Setup software library with EM12c: Setup-> Provisioning and Patching->

Software Library:

– Create assembly component

Component s loaded


Deploy Assembly in EM12c Self Service Portal • Self Service Admin handles provisioning and management Set resource quota to users/roles Define and publish service assemblies/templates Monitoring and Manage the requests and resources

• Setup Self Service Portal: SetupCloud Self Services: machine size

• Assign resource limits to role. Each user will be assigned role(s))

Through the roles, wls_user is assigned the limits of resource this user can request


Deploy assemblies in EM12c Self Service Portal • Define software Components: publish Assembly to Self Service user Click Software Component of the Self service portal page Publish Assemblies/templates to roles:

Publish

• Self Service User wls_user gains the privileges through roles: Wls_user’s roles: EM_user, Public, WLS_SELESERVICE, EM_SSA_user role privilege to access Self Service Portal WLS_SELESERVICE role the resources quota WLS_SELESERVICE role privilege to access the assemblies to provision

virtual machines


Deploy assemblies in EM12c Self Service Portal • Check the assemblies the user can use for the virtual machine request

• Request server (virtual machine) through Self Service Portal


Deploy assemblies in EM12c Self Service Portal • Monitoring the request server status and the resource usage:
