OpenStack Installation Tutorial for Debian

Abstract

The OpenStack system consists of several key services that are separately installed. These services work together depending on your cloud needs and include the Compute, Identity, Networking, Image, Block Storage, Object Storage, Telemetry, Orchestration, and Database services. You can install any of these projects separately and configure them stand-alone or as connected entities.

This guide walks through an installation by using packages available through Debian 8 (code name: Jessie).

Note

This guide uses installation with debconf set to non-interactive mode. That is, there will be no debconf prompt. To configure a computer to use this mode, run the following command:

# dpkg-reconfigure debconf

If you prefer to use debconf, refer to the debconf install-guide for Debian.

Explanations of configuration options and sample configuration files are included.

Note

The Training Labs scripts provide an automated way of deploying the cluster described in this Installation Guide into VirtualBox or KVM VMs. You will need a desktop computer or a laptop with at least 8 GB memory and 20 GB free storage running Linux, MaOS, or Windows. Please see the OpenStack Training Labs.

This guide documents the OpenStack Ocata release.

Warning

This guide is a work-in-progress and is subject to updates frequently. Pre-release packages have been used for testing, and some instructions may not work with final versions. Please help us make this guide better by reporting any errors you encounter.
