OpenStack playbooks
Figure 7.1. Installation work flow
The setup-openstack.yml
playbook installs OpenStack
services and performs the following operations:
- Installs Identity (keystone)
- Installs the Image service (glance)
- Installs Block Storage (cinder)
- Installs Compute (nova)
- Installs Networking (neutron)
- Installs Orchestration (heat)
- Installs Dashboard (horizon)
- Installs Telemetry (ceilometer and aodh)
- Installs Object Storage (swift)
- Installs Ironic
Running the OpenStack playbook
Change to the
/opt/openstack-ansible/playbooks
directory.Run the OpenStack setup playbook:
# openstack-ansible setup-openstack.yml
Confirm satisfactory completion with zero items unreachable or failed.
Utility container
The utility container provides a space where miscellaneous tools and software are installed. Tools and objects are placed in a utility container if they do not require a dedicated container or if it is impractical to create a new container for a single tool or object. Utility containers are also used when tools cannot be installed directly onto a host.
For example, the tempest playbooks are installed on the utility container since tempest testing does not need a container of its own.
Verifying OpenStack operation
Verify basic operation of the OpenStack API and dashboard.
Procedure 8.1. Verifying the API
The utility container provides a CLI environment for additional configuration and testing.
Determine the utility container name:
# lxc-ls | grep utility infra1_utility_container-161a4084
Access the utility container:
# lxc-attach -n infra1_utility_container-161a4084
Source the
admin
tenant credentials:# source /root/openrc
Run an OpenStack command that uses one or more APIs. For example:
# openstack user list +----------------------------------+--------------------+ | ID | Name | +----------------------------------+--------------------+ | 08fe5eeeae314d578bba0e47e7884f3a | alt_demo | | 0aa10040555e47c09a30d2240e474467 | dispersion | | 10d028f9e47b4d1c868410c977abc3df | glance | | 249f9ad93c024f739a17ca30a96ff8ee | demo | | 39c07b47ee8a47bc9f9214dca4435461 | swift | | 3e88edbf46534173bc4fd8895fa4c364 | cinder | | 41bef7daf95a4e72af0986ec0583c5f4 | neutron | | 4f89276ee4304a3d825d07b5de0f4306 | admin | | 943a97a249894e72887aae9976ca8a5e | nova | | ab4f0be01dd04170965677e53833e3c3 | stack_domain_admin | | ac74be67a0564722b847f54357c10b29 | heat | | b6b1d5e76bc543cda645fa8e778dff01 | ceilometer | | dc001a09283a404191ff48eb41f0ffc4 | aodh | | e59e4379730b41209f036bbeac51b181 | keystone | +----------------------------------+--------------------+
Procedure 8.2. Verifying the dashboard
- With a web browser, access the dashboard using the external load
balancer IP address defined by the
external_lb_vip_address
option in the/etc/openstack_deploy/openstack_user_config.yml
file. The dashboard uses HTTPS on port 443. - Authenticate using the username
admin
and password defined by thekeystone_auth_admin_password
option in the/etc/openstack_deploy/user_variables.yml
file.
Note
Only users with administrator privileges can upload public images using the dashboard or CLI.
