CMP Automatic Deployment Process
The Ansible deployment process used to deploy CMP
Converged Monetisation Platform. The MDS Global product that supports customer care and billing for digital service providers. is as follows:
Step 1
Download and unzip the Ansible Playbook package to the control server (controller node) and prepare the inventory file using the Inventory Configuration Tool.
Step 2
Run the command to execute the deployment playbook.
Step 3
As Ansible runs step by step through each task in the playbook, it encounters deployment instructions for groups of hosts. It consults the inventory to determine the list of specific hosts and what configuration is required for each.
Step 4
Having identified the hosts, the control server communicates the configuration and deployment instructions to the hosts via SSH. The hosts access the CMP installation repository in the cloud and deploy the required packages and configuration.
