Playbook

Pigsty provides three playbooks related to the INFRA module:

• deploy.yml: Deploy the NODE, INFRA, ETCD, MINIO, and PGSQL core modules on all nodes in one pass
• infra.yml: Initialize Pigsty infrastructure on infra nodes
• infra-rm.yml: Remove infrastructure components from infra nodes

deploy.yml

Deploy the NODE, INFRA, ETCD, MINIO, and PGSQL core modules on all nodes in one pass, resolving INFRA/NODE circular dependency issues.

This playbook interleaves subtasks from infra.yml and node.yml, completing deployment of the core components in the following order:

1. id: Generate node and PostgreSQL identities
2. ca: Create self-signed CA on localhost
3. repo: Create local software repository on infra nodes
4. node-init: Initialize nodes and HAProxy
5. infra: Initialize Nginx, DNS, VictoriaMetrics, Grafana, etc.
6. node-monitor: Initialize node-exporter, vector
7. etcd: Initialize etcd (required for PostgreSQL HA)
8. minio: Initialize MinIO (optional)
9. pgsql: Initialize PostgreSQL clusters and configure PostgreSQL monitoring

This playbook is equivalent to executing the following five playbooks sequentially:

./infra.yml -l infra    # Deploy infrastructure on infra group
./node.yml              # Initialize all nodes
./etcd.yml              # Initialize etcd cluster
./minio.yml             # Initialize MinIO cluster (optional)
./pgsql.yml             # Initialize PostgreSQL clusters

deploy.yml does not currently deploy the Docker module. If Docker is required, set docker_enabled: true and run docker.yml separately.

infra.yml

Initialize the infrastructure module on Infra nodes defined in the infra group of your configuration file.

This playbook performs the following tasks:

• Configures directories and environment variables on Infra nodes
• Downloads and creates a local software repository to accelerate subsequent installations
• Incorporates the current Infra node as a common node managed by Pigsty
• Deploys infrastructure components (VictoriaMetrics/Logs/Traces, VMAlert, Grafana, Alertmanager, Blackbox Exporter, etc.)

Playbook notes:

• This is an idempotent playbook - repeated execution will overwrite infrastructure components on Infra nodes
• To preserve historical monitoring data, set vmetrics_clean, vlogs_clean, vtraces_clean to false beforehand
• Unless grafana_clean is set to false, Grafana dashboards and configuration changes will be lost
• When the local software repository /www/pigsty/repo_complete exists, this playbook skips downloading software from the internet
• Complete execution takes approximately 1-3 minutes, depending on machine configuration and network conditions

infra-rm.yml

Remove Pigsty infrastructure from Infra nodes defined in the infra group of your configuration file.

Common subtasks include:

./infra-rm.yml               # Run all phases: deregister, stop, remove config/environment/data, and uninstall packages
./infra-rm.yml -t deregister # Only deregister monitoring targets, Grafana datasources, and Nginx log collection
./infra-rm.yml -t service    # Stop infrastructure services on INFRA
./infra-rm.yml -t config     # Remove INFRA config and systemd units
./infra-rm.yml -t env        # Remove the admin user's Pigsty/PostgreSQL environment files
./infra-rm.yml -t data       # Remove retained data on INFRA
./infra-rm.yml -t package    # Uninstall packages installed on INFRA
