Launch an instance
launch-instance-neutron.rst launch-instance-nova.rst
An instance is a VM that OpenStack provisions on a compute node. This
guide shows you how to launch a minimal instance using the CirrOS
image that you added
to your environment in the glance
chapter. In these steps, you use the
command-line interface (CLI) on your controller node or any system with
the appropriate OpenStack client libraries. To use the dashboard, see
the OpenStack
User Guide.
Launch an instance using OpenStack Networking (neutron) <launch-instance-neutron>
or legacy networking (nova-network) <launch-instance-nova>
.
For more information, see the OpenStack
User Guide.
Note
These steps reference example components created in previous chapters. You must adjust certain values such as IP addresses to match your environment.
