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.
