Installing bms-network-config

Scenario

Install bms-network-config to work with Cloud-Init for the network configuration of the BMSs with centralized BMGW. For the BMSs with distributed BMGW (that is, BMSs with SDI 3.0 or SDI 2.2 cards), you do not need to perform operations in this section. Table 1 describes the BMS flavors for which bms-network-config needs to be installed.

Prerequisites

• You have logged in to the VM.
• Cloud-Init has been installed on the VM.
• The bms-network-config software package has been downloaded as instructed in Software and has been uploaded to the VM.
  

  Download the RPM package depending on the OS. Ubuntu and Debian use the .deb package, and CentOS and EulerOS (Arm) use the aarch .rpm package.

Procedure

The procedure for XenServer is different from other OSs. For details, see Procedure (XenServer).

1. Enter the directory where the bms-network-config software package is stored and run the rpm -ivhbms-network-config-1.0-7.centosRedhat7.x86_64.rpm command.

   [root@localhost r74]# rpm -ivhbms-network-config-1.0-7.centosRedhat7.x86_64.rpm
   Preparing...                          ############################### [100%]            
   Updating / installing...
      1:bms-network-config-1.0.7.centosRe############################### [100%]

   

   If the error shown in the following figure is displayed when you install bms-network-config for SUSE 12/SUSE 15, run the rpm -ivh bms-network-config-1.0-9.suse12.x86_64.rpm --nodeps --force command.

   

   For Ubuntu/Debian, run the dpkg -ixxx command (xxx indicates the .deb package name).

   root@ubuntu:~/file# dpkg -i bms-network-config-1.0.7.ubuntu1604-918.deb
   Selecting previously unselected package bms-network-config.
   (Reading database ... 97630 files and directories currently installed.)
   Preparing to unpack bms-network-config-1.0.7.ubuntu1604-918.deb ...
   Unpacking bms-network-config (1.0) ...
   Setting up bms-network-config (1.0) ...
   root@ubuntu:~/file# dpkg -s bms-network-config

   

   The names of the .rpm and .deb packages vary according to the actual situation.

2. After the installation is complete, run the rpm -qa | grep bms-network-config command. The installation is successful if the following information is displayed:

   [root@localhost r74]# rpm -qa | grep bms
   bms-network-config-1.0.7.centosRedhat7.x86_64

   For Ubuntu/Debian, run the dpkg -s bms-network-config command.

3. Check the bms-network-config status.
   • For Oracle Linux 7, Red Hat 7, CentOS 7, Ubuntu 16.04, Ubuntu 18.04, SUSE 12, SUSE 15, or EulerOS, run the service bms-network-config status command to check the service status. If the status is not enabled, run the systemctl enable bms-network-config command to enable the service.

     [root@localhost r74]# service bms-network-config status
     Redirecting to /bin/systemctl status bms-network-config.service
       bms-network-config.service - Network Config
       Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/bms-network-config service; enabled vendor preset: disabled)
       Active: inactive (dead)

   • For Red Hat 6, CentOS 6, SUSE 11 SP4, Oracle Linux 6.8, or Oracle Linux 6.9, run the chkconfig --list | grep bms-network-config command to check the service status. If the status is not on, run the chkconfig bms-network-config on command to enable the service.

     [root@localhost r69]# chkconfig --list | grep bms
     bms-network-config   0:off   1:off   2:on   3:on   4:off   5:on   6:off

   • For Ubuntu 14.04/Debian, run the initctl status bms-network_config command to check the service status.

     root@ubuntu:~# initctl status bms-network_config
     bms-network_config stop/waiting

4. Check the startup dependencies between bms-network-config and other services.

   Run the systemctl cat bms-network-config command to check the configuration file and ensure that the file content is as follows:

   [Unit]
   Description=NetworkConfig
   DefaultDependencies=no
   After=dbus.service
   Wants=dbus.service
   
   [Service]
   Type=oneshot
   ExecStart=/usr/bin/bms-network_config rhel
   RemainAfterExit=yes
   TimeoutSec=0
   
   [Install]
   WantedBy=multi-user.target

   If the startup sequence is incorrect, use the vim /usr/lib/systemd/system/bms-network-config.service command to correct it.

Procedure (XenServer)

1. Extract xenserver-bms-config.zip from bms-network-config.
2. Create the /opt/huawei directory and put GetVpcNicMac.sh, unique-uuid-config.sh, and xenserver-bms-network-config.sh in this directory. Run the chmod +x Script name command to make these scripts executable.
3. Put the xenserverInit.service file in the /usr/lib/systemd/system/ directory and run the systemctl daemon-reload command to update system services.
