Using Mistral without Authentication
====================================
Using Mistral to execute Workflows on an arbitrary cloud
========================================================
It is possible to execute a workflow on any arbitrary cloud without additional
configuration on the Mistral server side. If authentication is turned off in
the Mistral server (Pecan's `auth_enable = False` option in `mistral.conf`),
there is no need to set the `keystone_authtoken` section. It is possible to
have Mistral use an external OpenStack cloud even when it isn't deployed in
an OpenStack environment (i.e. no Keystone integration).

The `--os-target_cacert` parameter can be used to set a CA certificate for
SSL communication with the target cloud's Keystone service. The CA certificate
file is **NOT** transferred to the Mistral server. It is the responsibility of
the user to ensure that the SSL Certificate is accessible for the Mistral
Executor and SSL communication is possible with the target cloud. For testing
purposes it is suggested to use the `--target_insecure` parameter.
