Install and configure Placement for openSUSE and SUSE Linux Enterprise

This section describes how to install and configure the placement service when using openSUSE or SUSE Linux Enterprise packages.

Prerequisites

Before you install and configure the placement service, you must create a database, service credentials, and API endpoints.

Create Database

To create the database, complete these steps:

Use the database access client to connect to the database server as the root user:
```
$ mysql -u root -p
```

Create the placement database:

MariaDB [(none)]> CREATE DATABASE placement;

Grant proper access to the database:

MariaDB [(none)]> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON placement.* TO 'placement'@'localhost' \
  IDENTIFIED BY 'PLACEMENT_DBPASS';
MariaDB [(none)]> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON placement.* TO 'placement'@'%' \
  IDENTIFIED BY 'PLACEMENT_DBPASS';

Replace PLACEMENT_DBPASS with a suitable password.

Exit the database access client.

Configure User and Endpoints

Install and configure components

Note

As of the Newton release, SUSE OpenStack packages are shipped with the upstream default configuration files. For example, /etc/placement/placement.conf has customizations in /etc/placement/placement.conf.d/010-placement.conf. While the following instructions modify the default configuration file, adding a new file in /etc/placement/placement.conf.d achieves the same result.

Install the packages:
```
# zypper install openstack-placement
```
Edit the /etc/placement/placement.conf file and complete the following actions:
- In the [placement_database] section, configure database access:
```
[placement_database]
# ...
connection = mysql+pymysql://placement:PLACEMENT_DBPASS@controller/placement
```
  Replace PLACEMENT_DBPASS with the password you chose for the placement database.
- In the [api] and [keystone_authtoken] sections, configure Identity service access:
```
[api]
# ...
auth_strategy = keystone

[keystone_authtoken]
# ...
auth_url = http://controller:5000/v3
memcached_servers = controller:11211
auth_type = password
project_domain_name = Default
user_domain_name = Default
project_name = service
username = placement
password = PLACEMENT_PASS
```
  Replace PLACEMENT_PASS with the password you chose for the placement user in the Identity service.
  
  Note
  
  Comment out or remove any other options in the [keystone_authtoken] section.
  
  Note
  
  The value of user_name, password, project_domain_name and user_domain_name need to be in sync with your keystone config.
Populate the placement database:
```
# su -s /bin/sh -c "placement-manage db sync" placement
```
Note

Ignore any deprecation messages in this output.

Finalize installation

Enable the placement API Apache vhost:

# mv /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/openstack-placement-api.conf.sample \
  /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/openstack-placement-api.conf
# systemctl reload apache2.service
