How to install OpenStack
We used DevStack to quickly bring up a complete OpenStack environment.
RECOMMENDED: 4 CPUs, 16 GB RAM, 80GB disk and a single interface with Internet access.
Note: We created a similar Virtual Machine in Google Cloud Plataform. Details can be found here.
On google shell, type:
gcloud compute instances start openstack
On google shell, type:
gcloud compute ssh --zone "southamerica-east1-b" "openstack" --project "intent-layer"
sudo useradd -s /bin/bash -d /opt/stack -m stack
sudo chmod +x /opt/stack
echo "stack ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" | sudo tee /etc/sudoers.d/stack
sudo -u stack -i
git clone https://opendev.org/openstack/devstack
cd devstack
[[local|localrc]]
ADMIN_PASSWORD=admin
DATABASE_PASSWORD=$ADMIN_PASSWORD
RABBIT_PASSWORD=$ADMIN_PASSWORD
SERVICE_PASSWORD=$ADMIN_PASSWORD
Note: The sample local.conf file should be under the samples directory in the devstack repository. The password to access
OpenStack GUIisadmin.
./stack.sh
Warning: The process takes around 30 minutes, largely depending on the speed of your internet connection. Many git trees and packages will be installed during this process.
Go to dashboard, and download the OpenStack RC File.
Create a new RC file and copy the content. Then, create a new file and paste the content. Finally, source the file to export environment variables.
Now, you can use openstack commands from terminal.
In dashboard, go to Project -> Network -> Security Groups. Click em Manage Rulesand add rule. In this case, we add two new rules to permit ICMP and SSHto VM instances.
