IPAM

To learn more about this OneFuse module, refer to IPAM.

Prerequisites

1. Configure OneFuse Property Set(s) and OneFuse Module Policies.
2. Install OneFuse XUI per CloudBolt CMP.
3. Review an overview on OneFuse Modules with CloudBolt CMP.
4. Create a new Blueprint (if none exist) or determine which existing Blueprint(s) will utilize this OneFuse Module. Resource: Blueprints.

Configure the Blueprint

1. Verify Networks in CMP have certain fields set with values:

   1. Log in to CMP and go to Admin > Networks.

   2. Find and verify the following fields are set with values for all networks that OneFuse will provide IP Addresses for.

      For these networks, it cannot be assigned to another native CMP IPAM integration nor have an active IP Pool.

      Field Name	Notes
      Name	The Network name specified here must match the OneFuse IPAM Policy Network Name.
      Gateway	This field is required to have a value.
      Netmask	This field is required to have a value.
      Dns1	This field is optional. If there is a value defined, the OneFuse IPAM Policy will override this value with the one defined on the OneFuse IPAM Policy.
      Dns2	This field is optional. If there is a value defined, the OneFuse IPAM Policy will override this value with the one defined on the OneFuse IPAM Policy.
      DNS Domain	This field is optional. If there is a value defined, the OneFuse IPAM Policy will override this value with the one defined on the OneFuse IPAM Policy.
      Addressing schema	This field needs to be set to: DHCP only and is required for OneFuse Driven Networks.
      Poweron stage	This field needs to be set to: On VM Creation.

2. Know the name of the OneFuse Connection Info created via OneFuse XUI initial setup.

3. Determine which OneFuse IPAM Policies to run for this Blueprint.

4. Update the Blueprint to add in necessary parameters to invoke OneFuse IPAM Policies.

5. Deploy the Blueprint to provision a deployment and reserve IP Address(es).

6. Destroy the Deployment to remove the IP Address(es) for the destroyed resource(s).

Update the Blueprint

1. Log in to CloudBolt CMP.
2. If not already on the Catalog page, select Catalog from the main menu.
3. Search and find the desired CloudBolt Blueprint.
4. Edit the Blueprint by selecting the gear icon on the bottom-right of the Catalog Item.

Add in necessary parameters

The following Parameters need to exist on the Blueprint.

Learn more about CloudBolt Parameters for: Blueprints, Environments, and Groups.

Call an IPAM Policy for a specific NIC:

Example parameter:

OneFuse_IpamPolicy_Nic0: 'OneFuse:MyIpamPolicy'

Additional helpful properties passed to OneFuse module

Purpose: Relate OneFuse Policy executions from different OneFuse Modules together with a Tracking ID.

Purpose: Reference a specific NIC’s values to get hostname, IP Address, etc.

Replace <#> with a number from 0 to 9, one for each NIC.

Replace <value> with an appropriate key: assignment, dnsServers, dnsSuffix, fqdn, gateway, hostname, ipAddress, label, mac, network, nicLabel, target

Examples:

• OneFuse_VmNic0.dnsSuffix
• OneFuse_VmNic0.fqdn
• OneFuse_VmNic0.hostname
• OneFuse_VmNic0.ipAddress
• OneFuse_VmNic0.target: when DNS Suffix is provided, will be the FQDN; otherwise, will be the hostname (without domain).

Purpose: Reference VM hardware information: cpu, memory, etc.

Replace <value> with an appropriate key: cpuCount, memoryGB, memoryMB, platformUuid, powerState, totalStorageGB

Examples:

• OneFuse_VmHardware.cpuCount
• OneFuse_VmHardware.memoryGB
• OneFuse_VmHardware.platformUuid
• OneFuse_VmHardware.powerState
• OneFuse_VmHardware.totalStorageGB

Provision

Deploy a Blueprint with OneFuse IPAM Policies configured. IP Address(es) will get reserved in the desired IPAM Provider.

Outputs

The following parameter will have the generated OneFuse IPAM Managed Object as a JSON string on the resource.

Deprovision

Destroy an existing resource with OneFuse IPAM Policies configured. The IP Address(es) will be removed from the desired IPAM Provider.
