Nuage VRS
Overview
The principle use of this charm is with the nova-compute charm as a subordinate and used within an OpenStack deployment .
This charm should be used with other principle charms to install and configure
the service units as Transport Nodes within a Nuage controller cluster.
NOTE: this charm relies on binaries that are distributed to customers of Nuage Networks VSP solution.
Usage
The VRS repositories are as an URL (http/ppa) by Nuage Networks to customers to download and deploy using Juju deployer..
The charm expects to find deb's; if they are missing the install hook will error out.
To deploy:
juju deploy nuage-vrs
juju add-relation nuage-vrs nova-compute
juju add-relation nuage-vrs nuage-vsc
Note that the nuage-vsc relation is optional if the nuage services are not deployed using JUJU chanrms.
Below Configuration are must for Nuage-VRS deployment:
vrs-repository-url: description: Nuage VRS repository containing Debian packages.This is must for installing vrs-packages Note : You must give this configuration as your deployment will fail is this parameter is not provided. This will have all the vrs-packages as debians.
Configuration

- vsc-controller-standby
- (string) Optional Standby VRS controller to use ( this is for redundant VSCs). This is mainly used when your Nuage-VSC is not deployed via JUJU, then you can mention your Standby VSC IP. When Nuage-VSC is being deployed via juju charm and then configuration is optional as vsc-controller-standby ip is being retrieved form relation-get and it will override this vsc-controller-active config value
