    set the ip/credentials of podm for which this Valence will interact

  6. Check the PYTHON_HOME and other variables in /etc/init/valence.conf

  7. Start valence service

    $ sudo service valence start

  8. Logs are located at /var/logs/valence/

GUI installation

Please refer to the installation steps in the ui/README file.

Components

Valence follows the typical OpenStack project setup. The components are listed below:

valence-api

A pecan based daemon to expose Valence REST APIs. The api service communicates to the controller through AMQP.

valence-controller --------------The controller implements all the handlers for Plasma-api. It reads requests from the AMQP queue, process it and send the reponse back to the caller.

valence-ui --------valence-ui provides a GUI interface to invoke Valence APIs.

Features

Please refer the Valence blueprints for supported and in-the-pipeline features. https://blueprints.launchpad.net/plasma
