Preparing for deployment

Before you can deploy OpenStack, you will need to configure the site.pp file. While previous versions of Fuel required you to manually configure site.pp, version 2.1 includes the openstack_system script, which uses both the config.yaml and template files for the various reference architectures to create the appropriate Puppet manifest. To create site.pp, execute this command:

openstack_system -c config.yaml \
  -t /etc/puppet/modules/openstack/examples/site_openstack_ha_compact.pp \
  -o /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp \
  -a astute.yaml

The four parameters shown here represent the following:

-c: The absolute or relative path to the config.yaml file you customized earlier.

-t: The template file to serve as a basis for site.pp. Possible templates include site_openstack_ha_compact.pp, site_openstack_ha_minimal.pp, site_openstack_ha_full.pp, site_openstack_single.pp, and site_openstack_simple.pp.

-o: The output file. This should always be /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp.

-a: The orchestration configuration file, to be output for use in the next step.

From there you're ready to install your OpenStack components, but first let's look at what's actually in the new site.pp manifest, so that you can undersand how to customize it if necessary. (Similarly, if you are installing Fuel Library without the ISO, you will need to make these customizations yourself.)
