cyclecloud

Deploying Azure CycleCloud into a subscription using an Azure Resource Manager template

Based on https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cyclecloud/quickstart-install-cyclecloud and https://github.com/CycleCloudCommunity/cyclecloud_arm/

Currently the main differences are:

• allows to use an already existing vnet
• installs https://github.com/beameio/cyclecloud-htcondor project in the cyclecloud machine

Structure

• development_install.ngs -> automated script, will create the azure required resources and call the azure deploy using the azuredeploy.json (see Automated deploy section)
• azuredeploy.json -> cyclecloud azure deploy definition file. Defines the cyclecloud infrastructure setup and contains reference to run the install.sh in the cyclecloud vm (with the parameters) once available.
• install.sh -> script that runs on the cyclecloud machine, calls the cyclecloud_install.py and imports the htcondor template into the machine

Flow

development_install.ngs -> azuredeploy.json -> install.sh -> cyclecloud_install.py -> https://github.com/beameio/cyclecloud-htcondor fetch & import -> start cluster

Manual deploy

Automated deploy

A script development_install.ngs if provided and it creates the pre-requirements and calls the deploy with the defined parameters.

Some of the parameters are defaulted in the script itself and can be changed via command line parameters:

* region (default is "West Europe")
* resource_group_name (default is "htcondor-%Y%m%d%H%M")
* cluster_name (default is "htcondor-%Y%m%d%H%M")
* virtual_nerwork_name (default is "htcondor-vnet")
* virtual_nerwork_subnet_name (default is "default")
* virtual_network_subnet_address_prefix (default is "10.0.0.0/24")

Call as ./development_install.ngs --resource_group_name test123 --region "West Europe" ...

Others have to be defined in a azuredeploy.parameters.json file with the content:

{
  "$schema": "https://schema.management.azure.com/schemas/2015-01-01/deploymentParameters.json#",
  "contentVersion": "1.0.0.0",
  "parameters": {

		},
		"applicationId": {

		},
		"applicationSecret": {

		},
		"SSH Public Key": {
			"value": ""
		},
		"username": {

		"password": {

  }
