Although OpenShift was not a feature for Fedora 18, it is possible for you to setup and install it in the same way you can for Fedora 19.
This page is here to show how to setup OpenShift Origin on Fedora 18 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.
Note: And now they have been written into scripts. https://github.com/tdawson/oo-install-scripts
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 18. That will be in Fedora 20.
These instructions were created most from the following two places.
- https://www.openshift.com/wiki/build-your-own

Initial Setup of Broker and Node Machines
ON BOTH BROKER AND NODE
# Start with a Fedora 18 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 $2}'
Setup and Configure Broker
Broker: Bind DNS
yum -y install bind bind-utils KEYFILE=/var/named/${DOMAIN}.key
setup DNSSEC key pair
cd /var/named/ dnssec-keygen -a HMAC-MD5 -b 512 -n USER -r /dev/urandom ${DOMAIN} KEY="$(grep Key: K${DOMAIN}*.private | cut -d ' ' -f 2)" cd - rndc-confgen -a -r /dev/urandom echo $KEY
setup permissions for the DNSSEC key pair
restorecon -v /etc/rndc.* /etc/named.* chown -v root:named /etc/rndc.key chmod -v 640 /etc/rndc.key
setup forwarders
echo "forwarders { 8.8.8.8; 8.8.4.4; } ;" >> /var/named/forwarders.conf restorecon -v /var/named/forwarders.conf chmod -v 755 /var/named/forwarders.conf
setup initial DNS database
rm -rvf /var/named/dynamic mkdir -vp /var/named/dynamic cat <<EOF > /var/named/dynamic/${DOMAIN}.db \$ORIGIN . \$TTL 1 ; 1 seconds (for testing only) ${DOMAIN} IN SOA ns1.${DOMAIN}. hostmaster.${DOMAIN}. ( 2011112904 ; serial 60 ; refresh (1 minute) 15 ; retry (15 seconds) 1800 ; expire (30 minutes) 10 ; minimum (10 seconds) ) NS ns1.${DOMAIN}. MX 10 mail.${DOMAIN}. \$ORIGIN ${DOMAIN}. ns1 A 127.0.0.1 EOF
Install the DNSSEC key
cat <<EOF > ${KEYFILE} key ${DOMAIN} { algorithm HMAC-MD5; secret "${KEY}"; }; EOF
Check the key and database
cat /var/named/dynamic/${DOMAIN}.db cat /var/named/${DOMAIN}.key
Set permissions for key and database
chown -Rv named:named /var/named restorecon -rv /var/named
Create the named configuration file
mv /etc/named.conf /etc/named.conf.openshift cat <<EOF > /etc/named.conf // named.conf // // Provided by Red Hat bind package to configure the ISC BIND named(8) DNS // server as a caching only nameserver (as a localhost DNS resolver only). // // See /usr/share/doc/bind*/sample/ for example named configuration files. // options { listen-on port 53 { any; }; directory "/var/named"; dump-file "/var/named/data/cache_dump.db"; statistics-file "/var/named/data/named_stats.txt"; memstatistics-file "/var/named/data/named_mem_stats.txt"; allow-query { any; }; recursion yes; /* Path to ISC DLV key */ bindkeys-file "/etc/named.iscdlv.key"; // set forwarding to the next nearest server (from DHCP response forward only; include "forwarders.conf"; }; logging { channel default_debug { file "data/named.run"; severity dynamic; }; }; // use the default rndc key include "/etc/rndc.key"; controls { inet 127.0.0.1 port 953 allow { 127.0.0.1; } keys { "rndc-key"; }; }; include "/etc/named.rfc1912.zones"; include "${DOMAIN}.key"; zone "${DOMAIN}" IN { type master; file "dynamic/${DOMAIN}.db"; allow-update { key ${DOMAIN} ; } ; }; EOF
Check the named config file
cat /etc/named.conf
setup permissions of named config file
chown -v root:named /etc/named.conf restorecon /etc/named.conf
Setup firewall
firewall-cmd --add-service=dns firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=dns firewall-cmd --list-all
Setup and start service
/bin/systemctl enable named.service /bin/systemctl start named.service
add entries using nsupdate
nsupdate -k ${KEYFILE} > server 127.0.0.1 > update delete broker.example.com A > update add **your broker full name ** 180 A **your broker ip address** (example: update add broker.example.com 180 A 192.168.122.220 ) > send > quit
Test DNS server This is best done before hostname has been set.
ping broker.example.com dig @127.0.0.1 broker.example.com
Broker: DHCP client and hostname
Setup dhcp client
echo "prepend domain-name-servers **your broker ip address**;" >> /etc/dhcp/dhclient-eth0.conf echo "supersede host-name \"broker\";" >> /etc/dhcp/dhclient-eth0.conf echo "supersede domain-name \"example.com\";" >> /etc/dhcp/dhclient-eth0.conf
Setup hostname
echo "broker.example.com" > /etc/hostname
Broker: MongoDB
