Universal Agent Quick start#

This page provides a quick start guide for the Universal Agent. How to run, configure and work with it.

Install & run#

The agent is embedded into Genesis base image and the simplest way to test it just to run a VM from the base image or its inherited images.

For manual installation prepare a virtual environment and install the gcl-sdk.

python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install gcl-sdk

Run the agent:

genesis-universal-agent --config-file /etc/genesis_universal_agent/genesis_universal_agent.conf

The configuration file will be described later.

Configuration#

The agent uses a configuration file in the ini format. The default path to the configuration file is /etc/genesis_universal_agent/genesis_universal_agent.conf. The main agent section is universal_agent:

[universal_agent]
orch_endpoint = http://localhost:11011
status_endpoint = http://localhost:11012
caps_drivers = CoreCapabilityDriver,PasswordCapabilityDriver
facts_drivers = CoreFactDriver
  • orch_endpoint, status_endpoint are endpoints to orchestrator services.
  • caps_drivers- the list of capability drivers.
  • facts_drivers- the list of fact drivers.

For the universal scheduler:

[universal_agent_scheduler]
capabilities = em_core_*,password
  • capabilities - the list of capabilities to schedule. You can use wildcards like em_core_* to schedule all capabilities starting with em_core_.

If any of drivers use a database it should be configured in the [db] section. Example:

[db]
connection_url = postgresql://genesis_core:genesis_core@127.0.0.1:5432/genesis_core
connection_pool_size = 2

Also you may specify specific configuration for each driver, for example, for the CoreCapabilityDriver:

[CoreCapabilityDriver]
username = test
password = test
user_api_base_url = http://localhost:11010
project_id = 12345678-aaaa-bbbb-cccc-f691897b8145
em_core_compute_nodes = /v1/nodes/
em_core_config_configs = /v1/config/configs/
