Configuration

local.conf

DevStack configuration is modified via the file local.conf. It is a modified INI format file that introduces a meta-section header to carry additional information regarding the configuration files to be changed.

A sample is provided in devstack/samples

The new header is similar to a normal INI section header but with double brackets ([[ ... ]]) and two internal fields separated by a pipe (|). Note that there are no spaces between the double brackets and the internal fields. Likewise, there are no spaces between the pipe and the internal fields: :

'[[' <phase> '|' <config-file-name> ']]'

where <phase> is one of a set of phase names defined by stack.sh and <config-file-name> is the configuration filename. The filename is eval'ed in the stack.sh context so all environment variables are available and may be used. Using the project config file variables in the header is strongly suggested (see the NOVA_CONF example below). If the path of the config file does not exist it is skipped.

The defined phases are:

local - extracts localrc from local.conf before stackrc is sourced
pre-install - runs after the system packages are installed but before any of the source repositories are installed
install - runs immediately after the repo installations are complete
post-config - runs after the layer 2 services are configured and before they are started
extra - runs after services are started and before any files in extra.d are executed

The file is processed strictly in sequence; meta-sections may be specified more than once but if any settings are duplicated the last to appear in the file will be used.

[[post-config|$NOVA_CONF]]
[DEFAULT]
use_syslog = True

[osapi_v3]
enabled = False

A specific meta-section local|localrc is used to provide a default localrc file (actually .localrc.auto). This allows all custom settings for DevStack to be contained in a single file. If localrc exists it will be used instead to preserve backward-compatibility. More details on the contents of local.conf <local.conf> are available.

[[local|localrc]]
FIXED_RANGE=10.254.1.0/24
ADMIN_PASSWORD=speciale
LOGFILE=$DEST/logs/stack.sh.log

Note that Q_PLUGIN_CONF_FILE is unique in that it is assumed to NOT start with a / (slash) character. A slash will need to be added:

[[post-config|/$Q_PLUGIN_CONF_FILE]]

Also note that the localrc section is sourced as a shell script fragment and MUST conform to the shell requirements, specifically no whitespace around = (equals).

Minimal Configuration

While stack.sh is happy to run without a localrc section in local.conf, devlife is better when there are a few minimal variables set. This is an example of a minimal configuration that touches the values that most often need to be set.

no logging
pre-set the passwords to prevent interactive prompts
move network ranges away from the local network (FIXED_RANGE and FLOATING_RANGE, commented out below)
set the host IP if detection is unreliable (HOST_IP, commented out below)

[[local|localrc]]
ADMIN_PASSWORD=secrete
DATABASE_PASSWORD=$ADMIN_PASSWORD
RABBIT_PASSWORD=$ADMIN_PASSWORD
SERVICE_PASSWORD=$ADMIN_PASSWORD
SERVICE_TOKEN=a682f596-76f3-11e3-b3b2-e716f9080d50
#FIXED_RANGE=172.31.1.0/24
#FLOATING_RANGE=192.168.20.0/25
#HOST_IP=10.3.4.5

If the *_PASSWORD variables are not set here you will be prompted to enter values for them by stack.sh.

The network ranges must not overlap with any networks in use on the host. Overlap is not uncommon as RFC-1918 'private' ranges are commonly used for both the local networking and Nova's fixed and floating ranges.

HOST_IP is normally detected on the first run of stack.sh but often is indeterminate on later runs due to the IP being moved from an Ethernet interface to a bridge on the host. Setting it here also makes it available for openrc to set OS_AUTH_URL. HOST_IP is not set by default.

HOST_IPV6 is normally detected on the first run of stack.sh but will not be set if there is no IPv6 address on the default Ethernet interface. Setting it here also makes it available for openrc to set OS_AUTH_URL. HOST_IPV6 is not set by default.

Historical Notes

Historically DevStack obtained all local configuration and customizations from a localrc file. In Oct 2013 the local.conf configuration method was introduced (in review 46768) to simplify this process.

Configuration Notes

Installation Directory

The DevStack install directory is set by the DEST variable. By default it is /opt/stack.

By setting it early in the localrc section you can reference it in later variables. It can be useful to set it even though it is not changed from the default value.

DEST=/opt/stack

Logging

Enable Logging

By default stack.sh output is only written to the console where it runs. It can be sent to a file in addition to the console by setting LOGFILE to the fully-qualified name of the destination log file. A timestamp will be appended to the given filename for each run of stack.sh.

LOGFILE=$DEST/logs/stack.sh.log

Old log files are cleaned automatically if LOGDAYS is set to the number of days of old log files to keep.

LOGDAYS=1

The some of the project logs (Nova, Cinder, etc) will be colorized by default (if SYSLOG is not set below); this can be turned off by setting LOG_COLOR to False.

LOG_COLOR=False

Logging the Service Output

DevStack will log the stdout output of the services it starts. When using screen this logs the output in the screen windows to a file. Without screen this simply redirects stdout of the service process to a file in LOGDIR.

LOGDIR=$DEST/logs

Note the use of ``DEST`` to locate the main install directory; this is why we suggest setting it in ``local.conf``.

Enabling Syslog

Logging all services to a single syslog can be convenient. Enable syslogging by setting SYSLOG to True. If the destination log host is not localhost SYSLOG_HOST and SYSLOG_PORT can be used to direct the message stream to the log host. |

SYSLOG=True
SYSLOG_HOST=$HOST_IP
SYSLOG_PORT=516

Example Logging Configuration

For example, non-interactive installs probably wish to save output to a file, keep service logs and disable color in the stored files.

[[local|localrc]]
DEST=/opt/stack/
LOGDIR=$DEST/logs
LOGFILE=$LOGDIR/stack.sh.log
LOG_COLOR=False

Database Backend

Multiple database backends are available. The available databases are defined in the lib/databases directory. mysql is the default database, choose a different one by putting the following in the localrc section:

disable_service mysql
enable_service postgresql

mysql is the default database.

RPC Backend

Support for a RabbitMQ RPC backend is included. Additional RPC backends may be available via external plugins. Enabling or disabling RabbitMQ is handled via the usual service functions and ENABLED_SERVICES.

Example disabling RabbitMQ in local.conf:

::: disable_service rabbit

Apache Frontend

The Apache web server can be enabled for wsgi services that support being deployed under HTTPD + mod_wsgi. By default, services that recommend running under HTTPD + mod_wsgi are deployed under Apache. To use an alternative deployment strategy (e.g. eventlet) for services that support an alternative to HTTPD + mod_wsgi set ENABLE_HTTPD_MOD_WSGI_SERVICES to False in your local.conf.

Each service that can be run under HTTPD + mod_wsgi also has an override toggle available that can be set in your local.conf.

Keystone is run under Apache with mod_wsgi by default.

Example (Keystone)

KEYSTONE_USE_MOD_WSGI="True"

Example (Nova):

NOVA_USE_MOD_WSGI="True"

Example (Swift):

SWIFT_USE_MOD_WSGI="True"

Example (Cinder):

CINDER_USE_MOD_WSGI="True"

Libraries from Git

By default devstack installs OpenStack server components from git, however it installs client libraries from released versions on pypi. This is appropriate if you are working on server development, but if you want to see how an unreleased version of the client affects the system you can have devstack install it from upstream, or from local git trees by specifying it in LIBS_FROM_GIT. Multiple libraries can be specified as a comma separated list.

LIBS_FROM_GIT=python-keystoneclient,oslo.config

Virtual Environments

Enable the use of Python virtual environments by setting USE_VENV to True. This will enable the creation of venvs for each project that is defined in the PROJECT_VENV array.

Each entry in the PROJECT_VENV array contains the directory name of a venv to be used for the project. The array index is the project name. Multiple projects can use the same venv if desired.

PROJECT_VENV["glance"]=${GLANCE_DIR}.venv

ADDITIONAL_VENV_PACKAGES is a comma-separated list of additional packages to be installed into each venv. Often projects will not have certain packages listed in its requirements.txt file because they are 'optional' requirements, i.e. only needed for certain configurations. By default, the enabled databases will have their Python bindings added when they are enabled.

ADDITIONAL_VENV_PACKAGES="python-foo, python-bar"

A clean install every time

By default stack.sh only clones the project repos if they do not exist in $DEST. stack.sh will freshen each repo on each run if RECLONE is set to yes. This avoids having to manually remove repos in order to get the current branch from $GIT_BASE.

RECLONE=yes

Upgrade packages installed by pip

By default stack.sh only installs Python packages if no version is currently installed or the current version does not match a specified requirement. If PIP_UPGRADE is set to True then existing required Python packages will be upgraded to the most recent version that matches requirements.

PIP_UPGRADE=True

Service Catalog Backend

By default DevStack uses Keystone's sql service catalog backend. An alternate template backend is also available, however, it does not support the service-* and endpoint-* commands of the keystone CLI. To do so requires the sql backend be enabled with KEYSTONE_CATALOG_BACKEND:

KEYSTONE_CATALOG_BACKEND=template

DevStack's default configuration in sql mode is set in files/keystone_data.sh

Guest Images

Images provided in URLS via the comma-separated IMAGE_URLS variable will be downloaded and uploaded to glance by DevStack.

Default guest-images are predefined for each type of hypervisor and their testing-requirements in stack.sh. Setting DOWNLOAD_DEFAULT_IMAGES=False will prevent DevStack downloading these default images; in that case, you will want to populate IMAGE_URLS with sufficient images to satisfy testing-requirements.

DOWNLOAD_DEFAULT_IMAGES=False
IMAGE_URLS="http://foo.bar.com/image.qcow,"
IMAGE_URLS+="http://foo.bar.com/image2.qcow"

IP Version

IP_VERSION can be used to configure DevStack to create either an IPv4, IPv6, or dual-stack tenant data-network by with either IP_VERSION=4, IP_VERSION=6, or IP_VERSION=4+6 respectively. This functionality requires that the Neutron networking service is enabled by setting the following options:

disable_service n-net
enable_service q-svc q-agt q-dhcp q-l3

The following optional variables can be used to alter the default IPv6 behavior:

IPV6_RA_MODE=slaac
IPV6_ADDRESS_MODE=slaac
FIXED_RANGE_V6=fd$IPV6_GLOBAL_ID::/64
IPV6_PRIVATE_NETWORK_GATEWAY=fd$IPV6_GLOBAL_ID::1

Note: FIXED_RANGE_V6 and IPV6_PRIVATE_NETWORK_GATEWAY can be configured with any valid IPv6 prefix. The default values make use of an auto-generated IPV6_GLOBAL_ID to comply with RFC4193.

Service Version

DevStack can enable service operation over either IPv4 or IPv6 by setting SERVICE_IP_VERSION to either SERVICE_IP_VERSION=4 or SERVICE_IP_VERSION=6 respectively.

When set to 4 devstack services will open listen sockets on 0.0.0.0 and service endpoints will be registered using HOST_IP as the address.

When set to 6 devstack services will open listen sockets on :: and service endpoints will be registered using HOST_IPV6 as the address.

The default value for this setting is 4. Dual-mode support, for example 4+6 is not currently supported. HOST_IPV6 can optionally be used to alter the default IPv6 address

HOST_IPV6=${some_local_ipv6_address}

Multi-node setup

See the multi-node lab guide<guides/multinode-lab>

Projects

Neutron

See the neutron configuration guide<guides/neutron> for details on configuration of Neutron

Swift

Swift is disabled by default. When enabled, it is configured with only one replica to avoid being IO/memory intensive on a small VM. When running with only one replica the account, container and object services will run directly in screen. The others services like replicator, updaters or auditor runs in background.

If you would like to enable Swift you can add this to your localrc section:

enable_service s-proxy s-object s-container s-account

If you want a minimal Swift install with only Swift and Keystone you can have this instead in your localrc section:

disable_all_services
enable_service key mysql s-proxy s-object s-container s-account

If you only want to do some testing of a real normal swift cluster with multiple replicas you can do so by customizing the variable SWIFT_REPLICAS in your localrc section (usually to 3).

Swift S3

If you are enabling swift3 in ENABLED_SERVICES DevStack will install the swift3 middleware emulation. Swift will be configured to act as a S3 endpoint for Keystone so effectively replacing the nova-objectstore.

Only Swift proxy server is launched in the screen session all other services are started in background and managed by swift-init tool.

Heat

Heat is disabled by default (see stackrc file). To enable it explicitly you'll need the following settings in your localrc section

enable_service heat h-api h-api-cfn h-api-cw h-eng

Heat can also run in standalone mode, and be configured to orchestrate on an external OpenStack cloud. To launch only Heat in standalone mode you'll need the following settings in your localrc section

disable_all_services
enable_service rabbit mysql heat h-api h-api-cfn h-api-cw h-eng
HEAT_STANDALONE=True
KEYSTONE_SERVICE_HOST=...
KEYSTONE_AUTH_HOST=...

Tempest

If tempest has been successfully configured, a basic set of smoke tests can be run as follows:

$ cd /opt/stack/tempest
$ tox -efull  tempest.scenario.test_network_basic_ops

By default tempest is downloaded and the config file is generated, but the tempest package is not installed in the system's global site-packages (the package install includes installing dependences). So tempest won't run outside of tox. If you would like to install it add the following to your localrc section:

INSTALL_TEMPEST=True

Xenserver

If you would like to use Xenserver as the hypervisor, please refer to the instructions in ./tools/xen/README.md.

Cells

Cells is an alternative scaling option. To setup a cells environment add the following to your localrc section:

enable_service n-cell

Be aware that there are some features currently missing in cells, one notable one being security groups. The exercises have been patched to disable functionality not supported by cells.

Cinder

The logical volume group used to hold the Cinder-managed volumes is set by VOLUME_GROUP, the logical volume name prefix is set with VOLUME_NAME_PREFIX and the size of the volume backing file is set with VOLUME_BACKING_FILE_SIZE.

VOLUME_GROUP="stack-volumes"
VOLUME_NAME_PREFIX="volume-"
VOLUME_BACKING_FILE_SIZE=10250M

Keystone

Multi-Region Setup

We want to setup two devstack (RegionOne and RegionTwo) with shared keystone (same users and services) and horizon. Keystone and Horizon will be located in RegionOne. Full spec is available at: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Heat/Blueprints/Multi_Region_Support_for_Heat.

In RegionOne:

REGION_NAME=RegionOne

In RegionTwo:

disable_service horizon
KEYSTONE_SERVICE_HOST=<KEYSTONE_IP_ADDRESS_FROM_REGION_ONE>
KEYSTONE_AUTH_HOST=<KEYSTONE_IP_ADDRESS_FROM_REGION_ONE>
REGION_NAME=RegionTwo
