How to Configure the Swift Proxy Controller Service Node

This task assumes that you have already installed the OpenStack packages on the node designated for Swift. See the install command to use in Configuring the Storage Node.

1. Install the Swift packages.

   proxy-node # pkg install swift swiftclient

2. Create ZFS datasets.

   proxy-node # /usr/sbin/zfs create -o mountpoint=none rpool/export/swift
   proxy-node # /usr/sbin/zfs create -o mountpoint=/srv rpool/export/swift/srv
   proxy-node # /usr/sbin/zfs create -p rpool/export/swift/srv/node/disk0
   proxy-node # /usr/bin/chown -R swift:swift /srv
   

3. Perform the following octal dumps.

   Retain the values of the dumps. These two values are referred to as $OD_1 and $OPD_2 in subsequent steps.

   proxy-node # od -t x8 -N 8 -A n < /dev/random
   proxy-node # od -t x8 -N 8 -A n < /dev/random

4. Edit the /etc/swift/swift.conf file with the following parameters.

   [swift-hash]
   swift_hash_path_suffix = $OD_1
   swift_hash_path_prefix = $OD_2

5. Edit the /etc/swift/proxy-server.conf file with the following parameters.

   [DEFAULT]
   bind_port = 8080
   
   [filter:tempauth]
   use = egg:swift#tempauth
   
   operator_roles = admin, swiftoperator 
   
   [filter:authtoken]
   auth_uri = http://$CONTROLLER_IP:5000/
   identity_uri = http://$CONTROLLER_IP:35357
   admin_tenant_name = service
   admin_user = swift
   admin_password = swiftpass
   
   [filter:cache]
   memcache_servers = $CONTROLLER_IP:11211
   

6. Enable the memcached daemon.

   proxy-node # svcadm enable -rs memcached

7. Build the rings.

   proxy-node # cd /etc/swift
   proxy-node # swift-ring-builder account.builder create 18 3 1
   proxy-node # swift-ring-builder container.builder create 18 3 1
   proxy-node # swift-ring-builder object.builder create 18 3 1
   proxy-node # swift-ring-builder account.builder add r1z1-$STORAGE_IP_1:6002/disk0 100
   proxy-node # swift-ring-builder container.builder add r1z1-$STORAGE_IP_1:6001/disk0 100
   proxy-node # swift-ring-builder object.builder add r1z1-$STORAGE_IP_1:6000/disk0 100
   proxy-node # swift-ring-builder account.builder add r1z1-$STORAGE_IP_2:6002/disk0 100
   proxy-node # swift-ring-builder container.builder add r1z1-$STORAGE_IP_2:6001/disk0 100
   proxy-node # swift-ring-builder object.builder add r1z1-$STORAGE_IP_2:6000/disk0 100
   proxy-node # swift-ring-builder account.builder rebalance
   proxy-node # swift-ring-builder container.builder rebalance
   proxy-node # swift-ring-builder object.builder rebalance
   proxy-node # chown -R swift:swift /etc/swift
   

8. Enable the Swift service.

   proxy-node # svcadm enable swift-proxy-server
