Launch an instance on the provider network
Determine instance options
To launch an instance, you must at least specify the flavor, image name, network, security group, key, and instance name.
On the controller node, source the
demo
credentials to gain access to user-only CLI commands:$ . demo-openrc
A flavor specifies a virtual resource allocation profile which includes processor, memory, and storage.
List available flavors:
$ openstack flavor list +----+---------+-----+------+-----------+-------+-----------+ | ID | Name | RAM | Disk | Ephemeral | VCPUs | Is Public | +----+---------+-----+------+-----------+-------+-----------+ | 0 | m1.nano | 64 | 1 | 0 | 1 | True | +----+---------+-----+------+-----------+-------+-----------+
Note
You can also reference a flavor by ID.
List available images:

This instance uses the
cirros
image.List available networks:

provider network. However, you must reference this network using the ID instead of the name.Note
If you chose option 2, the output should also contain the

self-service network.List available security groups:
$ openstack security group list +--------------------------------------+---------+------------------------+----------------------------------+ | ID | Name | Description | Project | +--------------------------------------+---------+------------------------+----------------------------------+ | dd2b614c-3dad-48ed-958b-b155a3b38515 | default | Default security group | a516b957032844328896baa01e0f906c | +--------------------------------------+---------+------------------------+----------------------------------+
This instance uses the
default
security group.

provider network.Note
If you chose option 1 and your environment contains only one network, you can omit the
--nic
option because OpenStack automatically chooses the only network available.$ openstack server create --flavor m1.nano --image cirros \ --nic net-id=PROVIDER_NET_ID --security-group default \ --key-name mykey provider-instance +-----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+ | Field | Value | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+ | OS-DCF:diskConfig | MANUAL | | OS-EXT-AZ:availability_zone | | | OS-EXT-STS:power_state | NOSTATE | | OS-EXT-STS:task_state | scheduling | | OS-EXT-STS:vm_state | building | | OS-SRV-USG:launched_at | None | | OS-SRV-USG:terminated_at | None | | accessIPv4 | | | accessIPv6 | | | addresses | | | adminPass | PwkfyQ42K72h | | config_drive | | | created | 2017-03-30T00:59:44Z | | flavor | m1.nano (0) | | hostId | | | id | 36f3130e-cf1b-42f8-a80b-ebd63968940e | | image | cirros (97e06b44-e9ed-4db4-ba67-6e9fc5d0a203) | | key_name | mykey | | name | provider-instance | | progress | 0 | | project_id | 3f714c72aed7442681cbfa895f4a68d3 | | properties | | | security_groups | name='default' | | status | BUILD | | updated | 2017-03-30T00:59:44Z | | user_id | 1a421c69342348248c7696e3fd6d4366 | | volumes_attached | | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
Check the status of your instance:
$ openstack server list +--------------------------------------+-------------------+--------+------------------------+------------+ | ID | Name | Status | Networks | Image Name | +--------------------------------------+-------------------+--------+------------------------+------------+ | 181c52ba-aebc-4c32-a97d-2e8e82e4eaaf | provider-instance | ACTIVE | provider=203.0.113.103 | cirros | +--------------------------------------+-------------------+--------+------------------------+------------+
The status changes from
BUILD
toACTIVE
when the build process successfully completes.
Access the instance using the virtual console

Note
If your web browser runs on a host that cannot resolve the
controller
host name, you can replacecontroller
with the IP address of the management interface on your controller node.The CirrOS image includes conventional user name/password authentication and provides these credentials at the login prompt. After logging into CirrOS, we recommend that you verify network connectivity using
ping
.Verify access to the provider physical network gateway:
$ ping -c 4 203.0.113.1 PING 203.0.113.1 (203.0.113.1) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 203.0.113.1: icmp_req=1 ttl=64 time=0.357 ms 64 bytes from 203.0.113.1: icmp_req=2 ttl=64 time=0.473 ms 64 bytes from 203.0.113.1: icmp_req=3 ttl=64 time=0.504 ms 64 bytes from 203.0.113.1: icmp_req=4 ttl=64 time=0.470 ms --- 203.0.113.1 ping statistics --- 4 packets transmitted, 4 received, 0% packet loss, time 2998ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.357/0.451/0.504/0.055 ms

Access the instance remotely
Verify connectivity to the instance from the controller node or any host on the provider physical network:
$ ping -c 4 203.0.113.103 PING 203.0.113.103 (203.0.113.103) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 203.0.113.103: icmp_req=1 ttl=63 time=3.18 ms 64 bytes from 203.0.113.103: icmp_req=2 ttl=63 time=0.981 ms 64 bytes from 203.0.113.103: icmp_req=3 ttl=63 time=1.06 ms 64 bytes from 203.0.113.103: icmp_req=4 ttl=63 time=0.929 ms --- 203.0.113.103 ping statistics --- 4 packets transmitted, 4 received, 0% packet loss, time 3002ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.929/1.539/3.183/0.951 ms
Access your instance using SSH from the controller node or any host on the provider physical network:
$ ssh cirros@203.0.113.103 The authenticity of host '203.0.113.102 (203.0.113.102)' can't be established. RSA key fingerprint is ed:05:e9:e7:52:a0:ff:83:68:94:c7:d1:f2:f8:e2:e9. Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes Warning: Permanently added '203.0.113.102' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.
If your instance does not launch or seem to work as you expect, see
the Instance
Boot Failures section in OpenStack Operations Guide for more
information or use one of the many other options <common/app-support>
to seek
assistance. We want your first installation to work!
