Introduction to the Fuel Installation
|

=====================================
|

|

This section provides an overview of the Fuel installation
|
||||
process. You can install Fuel on a server with an Internet connection or
|
||||
on a server that is isolated from the Internet for security reasons. Depending
|
||||
on your choice, the workflow differs.

Introduction to Fuel
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
Fuel is an open-source software application that simplifies the deployment of
|
||||
highly available OpenStack environments, as well as enables you to
|
||||
manage your OpenStack environments after deployment.
|
||||
|
||||
Fuel provides a web user interface (WUI), as well as a command-line user
|
||||
interface (CLI) and RESTful API for provisioning, configuration, and
|
||||
management of OpenStack environments. A link to the Horizon OpenStack
|
||||
Dashboard appears in the Fuel web UI after you deploy an OpenStack
|
||||
environment.
|
||||
|
||||
Using Fuel you can:
|
||||
|
||||
- Deploy multiple highly-available OpenStack environments on virtual or bare
|
||||
metal hardware.
|
||||
|
||||
- Configure and verify network configurations.
|
||||
|
||||
- Test interoperability between the OpenStack components.
|
||||
|
||||
- Easily scale your OpenStack environment by adding and removing nodes.
|
||||
|
||||
Fuel architecture includes:
|
||||
|
||||
* Fuel Master node
|
||||
A server with the installed Fuel application that performs initial
|
||||
configuration, provisioning, and PXE booting of the Fuel Slave nodes, as
|
||||
well as assigning the IP addresses to the Fuel Slave nodes.
|
||||
|
||||
* Fuel Slave node
|
||||
In the Fuel project terminology, a generic term that describes a server that
|
||||
is provisioned by the Fuel Master node. A Fuel Slave node can be a
|
||||
controller, compute, or storage node, among others. These terms are
|
||||
interchangeable with the OpenStack terminology.
