Getting Started PDF

Step 1: Obtaining the Deployment Scripts and Charts

NOTE: cd to your directory where installation will be, i.e. /home/user

Run ...

$ sudo -i
$ git clone http://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/it/dep -b bronze
$ cd dep
$ git submodule update --init --recursive --remote

Step 2: Generation of cloud-init Script

This step will generate a script that will set up a one-node Kubernetes cluster for installing the SMO components. The resultant script can run as the cloud-init script when launching the VM, or run at a root shell after the VM is launched.

Note, because the O-RAN SC Bronze SMO consists components from ONAP Frankfurt release, the infrastructure software stack (Docker, Kubernetes, and Helm) versions are as required by the ONAP deployment. It is a different combination compared to what the Near RT RIC requires.

Run ...

$ cd tools/k8s/etc
# edit the infra.rc file to specify the versions of docker, kubernetes, and helm.

 
# For SMO, the versions are as required by the ONAP Frankfurt release.

 
# Comment out the lines below the heading of "RIC tested"; and

n

 un-comment 
# the lines following the heading of "ONAP Frankfurt"

$ cd ../bin
$ ./gen-cloud-init.sh   # will

generate the

 generate the stack install script for what RIC needs

#

# The outputted script is will be used for preparing K8 cluster for RIC to deploy 
# to file is  "k8s-1node-cloud-init-k_1_15-h_2_16-d_18_09.sh"

Step 3: Installation of Kubernetes, Helm, Docker, etc.

Run ...

$ ./k8s-1node-cloud-init-k_1_15-h_2_16-d_18_09.sh

NOTE: Be patient as this takes some time to complete. Upon completion of this script, the VM will be rebooted. You will then need to login once again.

$ sudo -i
$ kubectl get pods --all-

namespaces #

namespaces  # There should be  9 pods running in kube-system namespace.

Step 4: Deploy SMO

O-RAN Bronze SMO consists of components from three separate groups: ONAP, Non RT RIC, and RIC-AUX. It is deployed by running a script under smo/bin.

Run ...

$ cd smo/bin
$ ./install

# If this is the first time SMO is installed on the SMO VM, it suggested to run "./install initlocalrepo" instead.

 
# The extra argument also initializes the local Helm repo.

# Also if this is the first time SMO is installed on the SMO VM, because it involves the preparation of the ONAP
# helm charts, the

installation# the

 instillation may take hours

.

 to finish.  It is suggested to run the install as a nohup command 
# in background, just in case connection to

#

 the VM is interrupted.

# Upon successful deployment, the "kubectl get pods --all-namespaces" command should show 8 pods in nonrtric 
# namespace,

# 27

 27 pods/jobs in onap namespace, and 2 pods in ricaux name space, all in Running or Completed state.

Helpful Hints

Kubectl commads:

kubectl get pods -n nampespace - gets a list of Pods running

kubectl get logs -n namespace name_of_running_pod
