Fedora 19 is when OpenShift Origin first became a feature.

This page is here to show how to setup OpenShift Origin on Fedora 19 using the packages in Fedora, as opposed to the packages published from upstream. These steps are written out to be done by hand. Yes, people can script and/or puppetize these steps. But these are written out so that people can see, and fine tune them.

Goal: By the end of this, you should have two machines. A broker machine, and one node machine. You should be able to create applications, that will be put on the node machine. You should be able to check the status of those applications. You should be able to point your web browser to the URL of those applications.

Note: There is no web console in Fedora 19. That will be in Fedora 20.

These instructions were created most from the following two places.

Initial Setup of Broker and Node Machines

ON BOTH BROKER AND NODE

# Start with a Fedora 19 minimal install
yum -y update
# avoid clock skew
yum -y install ntp
/bin/systemctl enable ntpd.service
/bin/systemctl start  ntpd.service

ON BROKER

export DOMAIN="example.com"
export BROKERIP="$(nm-tool | grep Address | grep -v HW | awk '{print $2}')"
export BROKERNAME="broker.example.com"
export NODEIP="--- IP Address from Node machine ---"
export NODENAME="node.example.com"
# Here is the IP Address from Broker machine
nm-tool | grep Address | grep -v HW | awk '{print $2}'

ON NODE

export DOMAIN="example.com"
export BROKERIP="--- IP Address from Broker machine ---"
export BROKERNAME="broker.example.com"
export NODEIP="$(nm-tool | grep Address | grep -v HW | awk '{print $2}')"
export NODENAME="node.example.com"
# Here is the IP Address from Node machine
nm-tool | grep Address | grep -v HW | awk '{print $2}'

Setup and Configure Broker
