Install and configure controller node ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This section describes how to install and configure the Compute service, code-named nova, on the controller node. Prerequisites ------------- Before you install and configure the Compute service, you must create databases, service credentials, and API endpoints. #. To create the databases, complete these steps: * Use the database access client to connect to the database server as the ``root`` user: .. code-block:: console $ mysql -u root -p .. end * Create the ``nova_api`` and ``nova`` databases: .. code-block:: console mysql> CREATE DATABASE nova_api; mysql> CREATE DATABASE nova; .. end * Grant proper access to the databases: .. code-block:: console mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON nova_api.* TO 'nova'@'localhost' \ IDENTIFIED BY 'NOVA_DBPASS'; mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON nova_api.* TO 'nova'@'%' \ IDENTIFIED BY 'NOVA_DBPASS'; mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON nova.* TO 'nova'@'localhost' \ IDENTIFIED BY 'NOVA_DBPASS'; mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON nova.* TO 'nova'@'%' \ IDENTIFIED BY 'NOVA_DBPASS'; .. end Replace ``NOVA_DBPASS`` with a suitable password. * Exit the database access client. #. Source the ``admin`` credentials to gain access to admin-only CLI commands: .. code-block:: console $ . admin-openrc .. end #. To create the service credentials, complete these steps: * Create the ``nova`` user: .. code-block:: console $ openstack user create --domain default \ --password-prompt nova User Password: Repeat User Password: +---------------------+----------------------------------+ | Field | Value | +---------------------+----------------------------------+ | domain_id | default | | enabled | True | | id | 8a7dbf5279404537b1c7b86c033620fe | | name | nova | | password_expires_at | None | +---------------------+----------------------------------+ .. end * Add the ``admin`` role to the ``nova`` user: .. code-block:: console $ openstack role add --project service --user nova admin .. end .. note:: This command provides no output. * Create the ``nova`` service entity: .. code-block:: console $ openstack service create --name nova \ --description "OpenStack Compute" compute +-------------+----------------------------------+ | Field | Value | +-------------+----------------------------------+ | description | OpenStack Compute | | enabled | True | | id | 060d59eac51b4594815603d75a00aba2 | | name | nova | | type | compute | +-------------+----------------------------------+ .. end #. Create the Compute service API endpoints: .. code-block:: console $ openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne \ compute public http://controller:8774/v2.1/%\(tenant_id\)s +--------------+-------------------------------------------+ | Field | Value | +--------------+-------------------------------------------+ | enabled | True | | id | 3c1caa473bfe4390a11e7177894bcc7b | | interface | public | | region | RegionOne | | region_id | RegionOne | | service_id | 060d59eac51b4594815603d75a00aba2 | | service_name | nova | | service_type | compute | | url | http://controller:8774/v2.1/%(tenant_id)s | +--------------+-------------------------------------------+ $ openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne \ compute internal http://controller:8774/v2.1/%\(tenant_id\)s +--------------+-------------------------------------------+ | Field | Value | +--------------+-------------------------------------------+ | enabled | True | | id | e3c918de680746a586eac1f2d9bc10ab | | interface | internal | | region | RegionOne | | region_id | RegionOne | | service_id | 060d59eac51b4594815603d75a00aba2 | | service_name | nova | | service_type | compute | | url | http://controller:8774/v2.1/%(tenant_id)s | +--------------+-------------------------------------------+ $ openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne \ compute admin http://controller:8774/v2.1/%\(tenant_id\)s +--------------+-------------------------------------------+ | Field | Value | +--------------+-------------------------------------------+ | enabled | True | | id | 38f7af91666a47cfb97b4dc790b94424 | | interface | admin | | region | RegionOne | | region_id | RegionOne | | service_id | 060d59eac51b4594815603d75a00aba2 | | service_name | nova | | service_type | compute | | url | http://controller:8774/v2.1/%(tenant_id)s | +--------------+-------------------------------------------+ .. end Install and configure components -------------------------------- .. include:: shared/note_configuration_vary_by_distribution.rst .. only:: obs #.

To select packages, edit the ``/etc/default/nova-consoleproxy`` file or use the debconf interface. You can also manually edit the ``/etc/default/nova-consoleproxy`` file, and stop and start the console daemons. .. endonly 2. Edit the ``/etc/nova/nova.conf`` file and complete the following actions: .. only:: rdo or obs * In the ``[DEFAULT]`` section, enable only the compute and metadata APIs: .. path /etc/nova/nova.conf .. code-block:: ini [DEFAULT] ... enabled_apis = osapi_compute,metadata .. end .. endonly * In the ``[api_database]`` and ``[database]`` sections, configure database access: .. path /etc/nova/nova.conf .. code-block:: ini [api_database] ... connection = mysql+pymysql://nova:NOVA_DBPASS@controller/nova_api [database] ... connection = mysql+pymysql://nova:NOVA_DBPASS@controller/nova .. end Replace ``NOVA_DBPASS`` with the password you chose for the Compute databases. * In the ``[DEFAULT]`` section, configure ``RabbitMQ`` message queue access: .. path /etc/nova/nova.conf .. code-block:: ini [DEFAULT] ... transport_url = rabbit://openstack:RABBIT_PASS@controller .. end Replace ``RABBIT_PASS`` with the password you chose for the ``openstack`` account in ``RabbitMQ``. * In the ``[DEFAULT]`` and ``[keystone_authtoken]`` sections, configure Identity service access: .. path /etc/nova/nova.conf .. code-block:: ini [DEFAULT] ... auth_strategy = keystone [keystone_authtoken] ... auth_uri = http://controller:5000 auth_url = http://controller:35357 memcached_servers = controller:11211 auth_type = password project_domain_name = default user_domain_name = default project_name = service username = nova password = NOVA_PASS .. end Replace ``NOVA_PASS`` with the password you chose for the ``nova`` user in the Identity service. .. note:: Comment out or remove any other options in the ``[keystone_authtoken]`` section. * In the ``[DEFAULT]`` section, configure the ``my_ip`` option to use the management interface IP address of the controller node: .. path /etc/nova/nova.conf .. code-block:: ini [DEFAULT] ... my_ip = 10.0.0.11 .. end .. only:: debian * The ``.config`` and ``.postinst`` maintainer scripts of the ``nova-common`` package detect automatically the IP address which goes in the ``my_ip`` directive of the ``[DEFAULT]`` section. This value will normally still be prompted, and you can check that it is correct in the nova.conf after ``nova-common`` is installed: .. path /etc/nova/nova.conf .. code-block:: ini [DEFAULT] ... my_ip = 10.0.0.11 .. end .. endonly * In the ``[DEFAULT]`` section, enable support for the Networking service: .. path /etc/nova/nova.conf .. code-block:: ini [DEFAULT] ... use_neutron = True firewall_driver = nova.virt.firewall.NoopFirewallDriver .. end .. note:: By default, Compute uses an internal firewall driver. Since the Networking service includes a firewall driver, you must disable the Compute firewall driver by using the ``nova.virt.firewall.NoopFirewallDriver`` firewall driver. * In the ``[vnc]`` section, configure the VNC proxy to use the management interface IP address of the controller node: .. path /etc/nova/nova.conf .. code-block:: ini [vnc] ... vncserver_listen = $my_ip vncserver_proxyclient_address = $my_ip .. end * In the ``[glance]`` section, configure the location of the Image service API: .. path /etc/nova/nova.conf .. code-block:: ini [glance] ... api_servers = http://controller:9292 .. end .. only:: obs * In the ``[oslo_concurrency]`` section, configure the lock path: .. path /etc/nova/nova.conf .. code-block:: ini [oslo_concurrency] ... lock_path = /var/run/nova .. end .. endonly .. only:: rdo * In the ``[oslo_concurrency]`` section, configure the lock path: .. path /etc/nova/nova.conf .. code-block:: ini [oslo_concurrency] ... lock_path = /var/lib/nova/tmp .. end .. endonly .. only:: ubuntu * In the ``[oslo_concurrency]`` section, configure the lock path: .. path /etc/nova/nova.conf .. code-block:: ini [oslo_concurrency] ... lock_path = /var/lib/nova/tmp .. end .. endonly .. only:: ubuntu .. todo: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nova/+bug/1506667 * Due to a packaging bug, remove the ``log-dir`` option from the ``[DEFAULT]`` section. .. endonly .. only:: rdo or ubuntu or debian 3.
