stoney cloud: OpenLDAP directory data organisation

Abstract

This document describes the stoney cloud (OpenStack) relevant OpenLDAP directory data organisation.

Introduction

This document describes the OpenLDAP directory data organisation for the stoney cloud service.

Data Organisation

The following chapters explain the data organisation of the stoney cloud OpenLDAP directory, in this case we looking at the stoney cloud service.

IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service)

The subtree ou=iaas,ou=service,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org contains all the OpenStack based stoney cloud service data. The following LDIF shows the iaas entry for the stoney cloud service:

dn: ou=iaas,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
objectclass: top
objectclass: organizationalUnit
ou: iaas

Domains (resellers)

dn: ou=domains,ou=iaas,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org 
objectclass: top
objectclass: organizationalUnit
ou: domains
description: The sub tree for the domains (resellers) of the OpenStack based stoney cloud service.

objectclass: sstOpenStackDomain

To set the attribute sstNetworkHostnameFormat correctly, please read the Customer VM Naming Convention page first!

Questions

• Should we have a configuraton sub tree with sane default values?
• Should we store the current values in the LDAP (CPU, RAM, ...)?
• Will we store the network configuraton in the LDAP?
  • If yes, how will we store the additional networks in the LDAP (shared network)?
• How will we make sure, not to bill the IPv4 netwoks, belonging to a reseller and/or customer?
  • For example Fence IT AG?
• Will we have both sstBelongsToDomainID and sstBelongsToDomainUID or just one or the other?
