source devstack/openrc admin admin openstack project create admin_v --domain=default --or-show -f value -c id openstack user create admin_v --password password --domain=default --email=alt_demo@example.com --or-show -f value -c id openstack role add admin --user <user-id> --project <admin-id>
- Or run:
-
devstack/tools/create_userrc.sh
