Flux Terraform AMI

Terraform module to create Amazon Machine Images (AMI) for Flux Framework HashiCorp Packer and AWS CodeBuild. We are mirroring functionality from GoogleCloudPlatform/scientific-computing-examples. Thank you Google, we love you!

Usage

Build Images with Packer

Let's first go into build-images to use packer to build our images. You'll need to export your AWS credentials in the environment:

export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

You'll need to first install packer You can use the Makefile there to build all (or a select set of) images.

cd ./build-images

$ make
# this builds a shared node setup
$ make node

Note that the build takes about 50 minutes (why we use an AMI and don't build Flux on the fly!

==> flux-compute.amazon-ebs.flux-compute: Deleting temporary keypair...
Build 'flux-compute.amazon-ebs.flux-compute' finished after 50 minutes 39 seconds.

==> Wait completed after 50 minutes 39 seconds

==> Builds finished. The artifacts of successful builds are:
--> flux-compute.amazon-ebs.flux-compute: AMIs were created:
us-east-1: ami-0ff535566e7c13e8c

make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/vanessa/Desktop/Code/flux/terraform-ami/build-images/node'

A previous design (building separate images for login, compute, and manager) was started, but not finished in lieu of the simpler design. It's included in build-images/multi for those interested.

Deploy with Terraform

Once you have images, choose a directory under examples to deploy from:

$ cd examples/autoscale

And then init and build:

$ make init
$ make fmt
$ make validate
$ make build

And they all can be run with make:

$ make

You can then shell into any node, and check the status of Flux. I usually grab the instance name via "Connect" in the portal, but you could likely use the AWS client for this too.

$ ssh -o 'IdentitiesOnly yes' -i "mykey.pem" [email protected]

Check the cluster status, the overlay status, and try running a job:

$ flux resource list
     STATE NNODES   NCORES NODELIST
      free      2        2 i-012fe4a110e14da1b.ec2.internal,i-0354d878a3fd6b017.ec2.internal
 allocated      0        0 
      down      0        0

[rocky@i-012fe4a110e14da1b ~]$ flux run -N 2 hostname
i-012fe4a110e14da1b.ec2.internal
i-0354d878a3fd6b017.ec2.internal

You can look at the startup script logs like this if you need to debug.

$ cat /var/log/cloud-init-output.log

That's it. Enjoy!
