Prerequisites ------------- Before you install and configure the ranger service, you must create a database, service credentials, and API endpoints. #. To create the database, complete these steps: * Use the database access client to connect to the database server as the ``root`` user: .. code-block:: console $ mysql -u root -p * Create the ``ranger`` database: .. code-block:: none CREATE DATABASE ranger; * Grant proper access to the ``ranger`` database: .. code-block:: none GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON ranger.* TO 'ranger'@'localhost' \ IDENTIFIED BY 'RANGER_DBPASS'; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON ranger.* TO 'ranger'@'%' \ IDENTIFIED BY 'RANGER_DBPASS'; Replace ``RANGER_DBPASS`` with a suitable password. * Exit the database access client. .. code-block:: none exit; #. Source the ``admin`` credentials to gain access to admin-only CLI commands: .. code-block:: console $ . admin-openrc #. To create the service credentials, complete these steps: * Create the ``ranger`` user: .. code-block:: console $ openstack user create --domain default --password-prompt ranger * Add the ``admin`` role to the ``ranger`` user: .. code-block:: console $ openstack role add --project service --user ranger admin * Create the ranger service entities: .. code-block:: console $ openstack service create --name ranger --description "ranger" ranger #. Create the ranger service API endpoints: .. code-block:: console $ openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne \ ranger public http://controller:XXXX/vY/%\(tenant_id\)s $ openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne \ ranger internal http://controller:XXXX/vY/%\(tenant_id\)s $ openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne \ ranger admin http://controller:XXXX/vY/%\(tenant_id\)s
