Overview of Configuring StarlingX OpenStack

is installed and managed as an Armada application.

See System Configuration: Application Management <system-config-helm-package-manager>, for a description of the application lifecycle commands for managing an Armada application.

Armada Applications are a set of one or more interdependent Application Helm Charts. In the case of , there is generally a Helm Chart for every OpenStack service.

The attribute values of an OpenStack Service's Helm chart represents the configurable parameters of the OpenStack Service. The OpenStack Services' helm charts are defined upstream here: https://opendev.org/openstack/openstack-helm. The specific attribute values supported by a helm chart can be found in the values.yaml file under the particular OpenStack Service, e.g. https://opendev.org/openstack/openstack-helm/src/branch/master/nova/values.yaml.

After uploading the application, applies 'system' overrides to the OpenStack helm charts, to specify a default configuration of containerized on . To display those 'system' overrides:

~(keystone_admin)]$ system helm-override-show -openstack nova openstack

You can specify helm overrides to update additional helm chart values and/or modify the overrides made by the system. The command syntax is:

system helm-override-update [--reuse-values] [--reset-values] [--values <file_name>] [--set <commandline_overrides>] app-name chart-name namespace

The optional arguments are:

--reuse-values

Determines if we should reuse existing helm chart user override values. If --reset-values is set, then this argument is ignored.

--reset-values

Replace any existing helm chart overrides with the ones specified.

--values <file\_name>

Specify a YAML file containing helm chart override values. Can specify multiple times.

--set <commandline\_overrides>

Set helm chart override values on the command line. Multiple override values can be specified with multiple --set arguments. These are processed after --values files.

The updated overridden helm chart values are applied to the OpenStack Application the next time -openstack is run.

As some examples of using helm chart overrides to configure OpenStack services of , the following sections show a few examples of some typical configurable changes to .
