Steps to create a new duffy SSH key

Note

we'll start using the pkistore git-crypted git repo for this, so be sure to have that under git control

We'll just create the new ssh keypair directly into the pkistore repository :

project="samba"
ssh-keygen -f ocp/ssh/${project} -C ${project}@CI

Important

Don't forget to add and git commit && git push new keys in pkistore/ocp/ssh repo

This will create both private and public ssh keys, and you can now copy the public key to be inserted into Duffy DB

Steps to create a new duffy API key
  1. The Duffy database runs on the admin.ci node: ssh admin.ci.centos.org and once in the admin node, login in mysql - duffy db

  2. Create user in usertable

insert into users values(UUID(), '<projectname>', '<projectname>', NOW(), 5);`
  1. Retrieve the api key from the users table select * from users where projectname="projectname"; Copy the API key somewhere handy (we will need it)

  2. Using that api-key/UUID as project_id, enter ssh key of a user from the project so that they can ssh into the machines. This process must be repeated for every user we wish to add access to via SSH.

insert into userkeys (project_id,`key`) values(<project-UUID-var>, <ssh-key-var>);` 

This ssh key is pushed to duffy nodes - authorized keys when a tenant requests the node through api key.
