# Heat resources for working with the Rackspace Cloud
|
|
The resources and configuration in this module are for using Heat with the Rackspace Cloud. These resources either
|
|
allow using Rackspace services that don't have equivalent services in OpenStack or account for differences between
|
|
a generic OpenStack deployment and Rackspace Cloud.
|
|
|
|
### 1. Install the Rackspace plugins in Heat
|
|
|
|
NOTE: These instructions assume the value of heat.conf plugin_dirs includes the
|
|
default directory /usr/lib/heat.
|
|
|
|
To install the plugin, from this directory run:
|
|
sudo python ./setup.py install
|
|
|
|
### 2. Restart heat
|
|
|
|
Only the process "heat-engine" needs to be restarted to load the newly installed
|
|
plugin.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Resources
|
|
The following resources are provided for compatibility:
|
|
|
|
* `Rackspace::Cloud::Server`:
|
|
>Provide compatibility with `OS::Nova::Server` and allow for working `user_data` and `Metadata`. This is deprecated and should be replaced with `OS::Nova::Server` once service compatibility is implemented by Rackspace.
|
|
|
|
* `Rackspace::Cloud::LoadBalancer`:
|
|
>Use the Rackspace Cloud Loadbalancer service; not compatible with `OS::Neutron::LoadBalancer`.
|
|
|
|
* `Rackspace::Cloud::DatabaseInstance`:
|
|
>Use the Rackspace implementation of Trove. This is deprecated and should eventually be replaced with `OS::Trove::Instance` or similar.
