Andreas Jaeger f80792b1ce Remove obsolete rstbash and '.. path'
The rst2bash tool used the ".. path" syntax to update files. Since we're
not using rst2bash anymore, remove all of this.

Remove also the rst2bash documentation.

SQL database for SUSE

Most OpenStack services use an SQL database to store information. The database typically runs on the controller node. The procedures in this guide use MariaDB or MySQL depending on the distribution. OpenStack services also support other SQL databases including PostgreSQL.

Install and configure components

  1. Install the packages:

    # zypper install mariadb-client mariadb python-PyMySQL
  2. Create and edit the /etc/my.cnf.d/openstack.cnf file and complete the following actions:

    • Create a [mysqld] section, and set the bind-address key to the management IP address of the controller node to enable access by other nodes via the management network. Set additional keys to enable useful options and the UTF-8 character set:

      [mysqld]
      bind-address = 10.0.0.11
      
      default-storage-engine = innodb
      innodb_file_per_table = on
      max_connections = 4096
      collation-server = utf8_general_ci
      character-set-server = utf8

Finalize installation

  1. Start the database service and configure it to start when the system boots:

    # systemctl enable mysql.service
    # systemctl start mysql.service
  2. Secure the database service by running the mysql_secure_installation script. In particular, choose a suitable password for the database root account:

    # mysql_secure_installation
