  <para os="ubuntu;debian;rhel;fedora;centos">Most OpenStack
    services require a database to store information. These examples
    use a MySQL database that runs on the controller node. You must

  <para os="opensuse;sles">Most OpenStack services require a
    database to store information. This guide uses a MySQL database
    on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server and a compatible database on
    openSUSE running on the controller node. This compatible
    database for openSUSE is MariaDB. You must install the MariaDB
    database on the controller node. You must install the MySQL
    Python library on any additional nodes that access MySQL or MariaDB.
