Zun in Kolla¶
“Zun is an OpenStack Container service. It aims to provide an OpenStack API for provisioning and managing containerized workload on OpenStack.” [1].
Preparation and Deployment¶
Zun requires kuryr and etcd services, for more information about how to configure kuryr refer to Kuryr Guide.
To allow Zun Compute connect to the Docker Daemon, add the following in the
docker.service file on each zun-compute node.
ExecStart= -H tcp://<DOCKER_SERVICE_IP>:2375 -H unix:///var/run/docker.sock --cluster-store=etcd://<DOCKER_SERVICE_IP>:2379 --cluster-advertise=<DOCKER_SERVICE_IP>:2375
Note
DOCKER_SERVICE_IP is zun-compute host IP address. 2375 is port that
allows Docker daemon to be accessed remotely.
By default zun is disabled in the group_vars/all.yml.
In order to enable it, you need to edit the file globals.yml and set the
following variables:
enable_zun: "yes"
enable_kuryr: "yes"
enable_etcd: "yes"
Deploy the OpenStack cloud and zun.
$ kolla-ansible deploy
Verify¶
Generate the credentials file.
$ kolla-ansible post-deploy
Source credentials file.
$ . /etc/kolla/admin-openrc.sh
Download and create a glance container image.
$ docker pull cirros
$ docker save cirros | openstack image create cirros --public \
--container-format docker --disk-format raw
Create zun container.
$ zun create --name test --net network=demo-net cirros ping -c4 8.8.8.8
Note
Kuryr does not support networks with DHCP enabled, disable DHCP in the subnet used for zun containers.
openstack subnet set --no-dhcp <subnet>
Verify container is created.
$ zun list

Start container.
$ zun start test
Request to start container test has been accepted.
Verify container.
$ zun logs test
