What is BOSH?

BOSH is an open source tool for releasing engineering, deployment, lifecycle management, and monitoring of distributed systems. ďƒ˜ BOSH will administer the infrastructure of the cloud foundry on any cloud providers. Once you want to install or remove products from cloud foundry, BOSH will do that.

ďƒ˜ Once you installed Ops Manager, you will be configuring BOSH Director for cloud foundry. A separate VM is created for BOSH Director and bosh components are installed on VM including bosh-cli tool. ďƒ˜ Ops Manager uses bosh-cli to install any products in cloud foundry. If you configured and installed new products on Ops Manager, BOSH will maintain the deployment file (.yml) for that new product.

ďƒ˜ You need to login to BOSH Director as director through Ops Manager VM. You can check details about installed deployment on cloud foundry. Details include status of deployment, how many VMs are running for that deployment and their types. ďƒ˜ In BOSH Director VM, you can handle deployment group of cloud foundry components. You can also start and stop the whole cloud foundry environment using bosh-cli tool. You can check the number of running VMs for the specific deployment.

ďƒ˜Each BOSH deployment needs to provide a specially structured configuration file – deployment manifest. This file defines what resources are going to be deployed, what services are going to be running on each of resources and properties that will be passed to services configuration files.
