\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here in the ICCLab, the framework of choice is\u00a0OpenStack<\/a>, which enjoys significant industry and academic support and is reaching good levels of maturity. The lab will support pre-production usage scenarios on top of OpenStack services as well as experimental research on OpenStack technology and extensions. Currently the actively deployed OpenStack services are the OpenStack\u00a0compute service<\/a>\u00a0(including keystone, glance and nova),\u00a0and Swift, an object storage service<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The lab is equipped with COTS<\/a> computing units, each running on 8\u00d72.4 Ghz Cores, 64GB RAM and 4\u00d71TB local storage per unit. To store templates and other data there is a 12TB NFS or iSCSI Storage which is connected to the switch with a 10Gbit Ethernet interface. The Computing Units are connected to a 1Gbit network for data and another 1Gbit net for control traffic.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>At the heart of the CCLab is the Management Server, which provides an easy way to stage different setups for\u00a0different OpenStack instances (productive, experimental, etc.). The Management Server provides a DHCP, PXE and NFS Server and some pre-configured processes which allow a bare metal computing unit to be provisioned automatically, using Foreman<\/a>, and then have preassigned roles installed, using a\u00a0combination\u00a0of Foreman and Puppet<\/a>. This provides a great deal of flexibility and support for different usage scenarios.<\/p>\n
