Ansible Roles to install Greenplum Database

Roles

There are a few predefined roles, they can be selected in install-host.yml.

The makefile offers to install all prerequisites on a host - only use this functionality in a trusted network! It will accept any ssh key without asking for further confirmation!

Instructions

Best start with this Ansible base repository and link the gpdb-ansible roles as new roles in the roles/ directory.

git clone https://github.com/andreasscherbaum/ansible-base greenplum-database
git clone https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-role-repo-epel.git greenplum-database/roles/epel
git clone https://github.com/andreasscherbaum/gpdb-ansible.git gpdb-ansible
for i in `cd gpdb-ansible/roles && ls`; do ln -s ../../gpdb-ansible/roles/$i greenplum-database/roles/$i; done

And add the new(s) role in install-host.yml, after the common role:

---

- hosts: all
  become: yes
  roles:
    - common
    - gpdb4

Finally initialize the build host, using:

make install

Configuration

The Greenplum Database version 4 information are in roles/gpdb4/vars/main.yml. Changing the version information will attempt an upgrade of the software. Always run a backup of your data first!
