Development

This section describes how to set up an OpenStack controller in a virtual machine using Vagrant and Kayobe.

Preparation

First, ensure that Vagrant is installed and correctly configured to use virtual box. Also install the following vagrant plugins:

vagrant plugin install vagrant-vbguest vagrant plugin install vagrant-reload

Note: if using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, you may be unable to install any plugins. To work around this install the upstream version from www.virtualbox.org.

Next, clone kayobe:

git clone https://github.com/stackhpc/kayobe

Change the current directory to the kayobe repository:

cd kayobe

Inspect kayobe's Vagrantfile, noting the provisioning steps:

less Vagrantfile

Bring up a virtual machine:

vagrant up

Wait for the VM to boot.

Installation

SSH into the controller VM:

vagrant ssh

Source the kayobe virtualenv activation script:

source kayobe-venv/bin/activate

Change the current directory to the Vagrant shared directory:

cd /vagrant

Source the kayobe environment file:

source kayobe-env

Bootstrap the kayobe control host:

kayobe control host bootstrap

Configure the controller host:

kayobe overcloud host configure

During execution of this command, SELinux will be disabled and the VM will be rebooted, causing you to be logged out. Wait for the VM to finish rebooting and log in, performing the same environment setup steps as before:

vagrant ssh
source kayobe-venv/bin/activate
cd /vagrant
source kayobe-env

Run the host configuration command again to completion:

kayobe overcloud host configure

At this point, container images must be acquired. They can either be built locally or pulled from an image repository if appropriate images are available.

Either build container images:

kayobe overcloud container image build

Or pull container images:

kayobe overcloud container image pull

Deploy the control plane services:

kayobe overcloud service deploy

Source the OpenStack environment file:

source ${KOLLA_CONFIG_PATH:-/etc/kolla}/admin-openrc.sh

Perform post-deployment configuration:

kayobe overcloud post configure

Next Steps

The OpenStack control plane should now be active. Try out the following:

  • register a user
  • create an image
  • upload an SSH keypair
  • access the horizon dashboard

The cloud is your oyster!

To Do

Create virtual baremetal nodes to be managed by the OpenStack control plane.
