Supermarket Belongs to the Community

Supermarket belongs to the community. While Chef has the responsibility to keep it running and be stewards of its functionality, what it does and how it works is driven by the community. The chef/supermarket repository will continue to be where development of the Supermarket application takes place. Come be part of shaping the direction of Supermarket by opening issues and pull requests or by joining us on the Chef Mailing List.

Description

Installs lvm2 package and includes resources for managing LVM.

Requirements

  • Debian/Ubuntu
  • RHEL/CentOS
  • Suse Enterprise Linux (SLES)

Resources/Providers

There are three LWRPs in the LVM cookbook that can be used to perform operations
with the Logical Volume Manager.

lvm_physical_volume

Manages LVM physical volumes.

Actions

  • :create - Creates a new physical volume. Default.

Attribute Parameters

  • name The device to create the new physical volume on. Required, name parameter.

Example

lvm_physical_volume '/dev/sda'

lvm_logical_volume

Manages LVM logical volumes

Actions

  • :create - Creates a new logical volume

Attribute Parameters

  • name - The name of the logical volume. Required, name parameter.
  • group - The volume group in which to create the new volume. Required unless the volume is declared inside of an lvm_volume_group block (<a href='#volume_group'>see below</a>).
  • size - The size of the volume. This can be any of the size specifications supported by LVM—SI bytes (e.g. 10G), physical extents, or percentages of all the extents in the volume group, all the free extents, or of the physical volumes assigned to the volume.
  • filesystem - The filesystem to format the volume as. The appropriate tools must be installed for the filesystem.
  • mount_point - Either a string containing the path to the mount point, or a Hash containing the following keys:
    • location - the directory to mount the volume on. Required.
    • options - the mount options for the volume.
    • dump - the dump field for the fstab entry.
    • pass - the pass field for the fstab entry.
  • physical_volumes - An array of physical volumes that the volume will be restricted to.
  • stripes - the number of stripes for the volume.
  • stripe_size - the number of kilobytes per stripe segment. Must be a power of 2 less than or equal to the physical extent size for the volume group.
  • mirrors - the number of mirrors for the volume.
  • contiguous - whether or not volume should use the contiguous allocation policy. Default is non-contiguous.
  • readahead - the readahead sector count for the volume. Can be a value between 2 and 120, 'auto', or 'none'

Example

lvm_logical_volume 'home' do
    group 'vg00'
    size '25%VG'
    filesystem 'ext4'
    mount_point '/home'
    stripes 3
    mirrors 2
end

<a name='volume_group' />

lvm_volume_group

Manages LVM volume groups.

Actions

  • :create - Creates a new volume group. Default.

Attribute Parameters

  • name - The name of the volume group. Required, name parameter.
  • physical_volumes - A device or list of devices to use as physical volumes. If they haven't already been initialized as physical volumes, they will be initialized automatically. Required.
  • physical_extent_size - The physical extent size for the volume group.
  • logical_volume - A shortcut for creating a new lvm_logical_volume definition. The logical volumes will be created in the order they are declared.

Example

lvm_volume_group 'vg00' do
    physical_volumes [ /dev/sda, /dev/sdb, /dev/sdc ]
    logical_volume 'logs' do
        size '1G'
        filesystem 'xfs'
        mount_point :location => '/var/log', :options => 'noatime,nodiratime'
        stripes 3
    end
    logical_volume 'home' do
        size '25%VG'
        filesystem 'ext4'
        mount_point '/home'
        stripes 3
        mirrors 2
    end
end

Usage

Make sure the lvm package is always up to date with this recipe. Put
it in a base role that gets applied to all nodes.

Note that this cookbook depends on the
di-ruby-lvm and
di-ruby-lvm-attrib gems.
The di-ruby-lvm-attrib gem in particular is a common cause of failures when
using the providers. If you get a failure with an error message similar to

No such file or directory - /opt/chef/.../di-ruby-lvm-attrib-0.0.3/lib/lvm/attributes/2.02.86(2)/lvs.yaml

then you are running a version of lvm that the gems do not support. However,
getting support added is usually pretty easy. Just follow the instructions on
"Adding Attributes" in the di-ruby-lvm-attrib README.
