Installing Nova on a Single Host
================================
Nova can be run on a single machine, and it is recommended that new users practice managing this type of installation before graduating to multi node systems.
The fastest way to get a test cloud running is through our :doc:`../quickstart`. But for more detail on installing the system read this doc.
Step 1 and 2: Get the latest Nova code system software
------------------------------------------------------
Depending on your system, the mehod for accomplishing this varies
.. toctree::
:maxdepth: 1
distros/ubuntu.10.04
distros/ubuntu.10.10
distros/others
Step 3: Build and install Nova services
---------------------------------------
Switch to the base nova source directory.
Then type or copy/paste in the following line to compile the Python code for OpenStack Compute.
::
sudo python setup.py build
sudo python setup.py install
When the installation is complete, you'll see the following lines:
::
Installing nova-network script to /usr/local/bin
Installing nova-volume script to /usr/local/bin
Installing nova-objectstore script to /usr/local/bin
Installing nova-manage script to /usr/local/bin
Installing nova-scheduler script to /usr/local/bin
Installing nova-dhcpbridge script to /usr/local/bin
Installing nova-compute script to /usr/local/bin
Installing nova-instancemonitor script to /usr/local/bin
Installing nova-api script to /usr/local/bin
Installing nova-import-canonical-imagestore script to /usr/local/bin
Installed /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/nova-2010.1-py2.6.egg
Processing dependencies for nova==2010.1
Finished processing dependencies for nova==2010.1
Step 4: Create a Nova administrator
-----------------------------------
Type or copy/paste in the following line to create a user named "anne."::
sudo nova-manage user admin anne
You see an access key and a secret key export, such as these made-up ones:::
export EC2_ACCESS_KEY=4e6498a2-blah-blah-blah-17d1333t97fd
export EC2_SECRET_KEY=0a520304-blah-blah-blah-340sp34k05bbe9a7
Step 5: Create the network
--------------------------
Type or copy/paste in the following line to create a network prior to creating a project.
::
sudo nova-manage network create 10.0.0.0/8 1 64
For this command, the IP address is the cidr notation for your netmask, such as 192.168.1.0/24. The value 1 is the total number of networks you want made, and the 64 value is the total number of ips in all networks.
After running this command, entries are made in the 'networks' and 'fixed_ips' table in the database.
Step 6: Create a project with the user you created
--------------------------------------------------
Type or copy/paste in the following line to create a project named IRT (for Ice Road Truckers, of course) with the newly-created user named anne.
::
sudo nova-manage project create IRT anne
::

Data Base Updated
Step 7: Unzip the nova.zip
--------------------------
You should have a nova.zip file in your current working directory. Unzip it with this command:
::
unzip nova.zip
You'll see these files extract.
::
Archive: nova.zip
extracting: novarc
extracting: pk.pem
extracting: cert.pem
extracting: nova-vpn.conf
extracting: cacert.pem
Step 8: Source the rc file
--------------------------
Type or copy/paste the following to source the novarc file in your current working directory.
::
. novarc
Step 9: Pat yourself on the back :)
-----------------------------------
Congratulations, your cloud is up and running, youve created an admin user, retrieved the user's credentials and put them in your environment.
Now you need an image.
Step 9: Get an image
--------------------
To make things easier, we've provided a small image on the Rackspace CDN. Use this command to get it on your server.
::
wget http://c2477062.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/images.tgz
::
--2010-10-12 21:40:55-- http://c2477062.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/images.tgz

2010-10-12 21:40:59 (14.1 MB/s) - `images.tgz' saved [58520278/58520278]
Step 10: Decompress the image file
----------------------------------
Use this command to extract the image files:::
tar xvzf images.tgz
You get a directory listing like so:::
images
|-- aki-lucid
| |-- image
| `-- info.json
|-- ami-tiny
| |-- image
| `-- info.json
`-- ari-lucid
|-- image

Troubleshooting Installation
----------------------------
If you see an "error loading the config file './openssl.cnf'" it means you can copy the openssl.cnf file to the location where Nova expects it and reboot, then try the command again.
::
cp /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf ~
sudo reboot
