For kolla, kolla-ansible and bifrost, we are now using a stackhpc/<release> branch naming scheme rather than referencing tags in forked repos. It is recommended to override these branches to specific tags for repeatable builds. The Ironic Python Agent source version and tarball URLs have also been updated to point to the pike release artifacts. Finally, the kolla_openstack_release has been set to 5.0.0, following the kolla-ansible second pike release candidate on which the stackhpc/pike branches are currently based.
Kayobe
Deployment of Scientific OpenStack using OpenStack kolla.
Kayobe is an open source tool for automating deployment of Scientific OpenStack onto a set of bare metal servers. Kayobe is composed of Ansible playbooks, a python module, and makes heavy use of the OpenStack kolla project. Kayobe aims to complement the kolla-ansible project, providing an opinionated yet highly configurable OpenStack deployment and automation of many operational procedures.
