The OpenStack dashboard, also known as
|
|
`Horizon <https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/horizon>`__
|
|
is a Web interface that enables cloud administrators
|
|
and users to manage various OpenStack resources and services.
|
|
|
|
The dashboard enables web-based interactions with the
|
|
OpenStack Compute cloud controller through the OpenStack APIs.
|
|
|
|
Horizon enables you to customize the brand of the dashboard.
|
|
|
|
Horizon provides a set of core classes and reusable templates and tools.
|
|
|
|
This example deployment uses an Apache web server.

Next steps
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
Your OpenStack environment now includes the dashboard. You can
|
|
launch an instance or add
|
|
more services to your environment in the following chapters.
|
|
|
|
After you install and configure the dashboard, you can
|
|
complete the following tasks:
|
|
|
|
.. TODO: add link to "launch an instance" after creation.
|
|
|
|
* Provide users with a public IP address, a username, and a password
|
|
so they can access the dashboard through a web browser. In case of
|
|
any SSL certificate connection problems, point the server
|
|
IP address to a domain name, and give users access.
|
|
|
|
* Customize your dashboard. See section
|
|
`Customize the dashboad <http://docs.openstack.org/admin-guide-cloud/
|
|
content/ch_install-dashboard.html#dashboard-custom-brand>`__
|
|
in the `OpenStack Cloud Administrator Guide
|
|
<http://docs.openstack.org/admin-guide-cloud/content/>`__
|
|
for information on setting up colors, logos, and site titles.
|
|
|
|
* Set up session storage. See section
|
|
`Set up session storage for the dashboard
|
|
<http://docs.openstack.org/admin-guide-cloud/content/
|
|
dashboard-sessions.html#dashboard-sessions>`__
|
|
in the `OpenStack Cloud Administrator Guide
|
|
<http://docs.openstack.org/admin-guide-cloud/content>`__
|
|
for information on user session data.
|
|
|
|
* To use the VNC client with the dashboard, the browser
|
|
must support HTML5 Canvas and HTML5 WebSockets.
|
|
|
|
For details about browsers that support noVNC, see
