An OpenStack cloud does not have much value without users. This chapter
|
|
covers topics that relate to managing users, projects, and quotas. This
|
|
chapter describes users and projects as described by version 2 of the
|
|
OpenStack Identity API.
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
|
|
While version 3 of the Identity API is available, the client tools
|
|
do not yet implement those calls, and most OpenStack clouds are
|
|
still implementing Identity API v2.0.

Projects or Tenants?
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
In OpenStack user interfaces and documentation, a group of users is
|
|
referred to as a :term:`project` or :term:`tenant`.
|
|
These terms are interchangeable.
|
|
|
|
The initial implementation of OpenStack Compute had its own
|
|
authentication system and used the term ``project``. When authentication
|
|
moved into the OpenStack Identity (keystone) project, it used the term
|
|
``tenant`` to refer to a group of users. Because of this legacy, some of
|
|
the OpenStack tools refer to projects and some refer to tenants.
|
|
|
|
.. tip::
|
|
|
|
This guide uses the term ``project``, unless an example shows
|
|
interaction with a tool that uses the term ``tenant``.
