[opensuse-cloud] Installing OpenStack on OpenSuSE 12.3
Hi folks, I have been playing around with OpenStack for quite some time and was trying to install it on CentOS 6.3. For various reasons I couldn't achieve success over it. So thought of trying it on a different distro. OpenSuse 12.3 is out and I thought it would be a good idea to install OpenStack on it. Is there any documentation that I can follow to install it ? Support is appreciated.

As Ralf was mentioning on IRC, a quick and dirty way is to use the openstack-quickstart package (it will install a /usr/sbin/openstack-quickstart-demosetup script). This will automatically install and configure everything. Be careful to not use this on a machine where you care about your configuration; best to try in a VM. Alternatively, just follow the upstream doc to know how to configure the OpenStack components. Btw, there's a maintenance update that should be published soon that comes with important fixes. If you don't want to wait for it, it's better to use the packages from https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=Cloud%3AOpenStack%3AFolsom Cheers, Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-cloud+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-cloud+owner@opensuse.org
Hi Vincent, You meant I should follow the below mentioned link http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Cloud_OpenStack_Quickstart to start installation of OpenStack once I have installed OpenSuse 12.3 ? I am going to install OpenSuSE 12.3 as a VM on a Xen-Server. I also need to add this repository via zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Cloud:/OpenStack:/Folsom/openSUSE_... to install OpenStack packages ? I am little confused on the last section that you mentioned which is to use packages from - https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=Cloud%3AOpenStack%3AFolsom Can you please elaborate and point me to a step by step documentation link to install OpenStack ?

Hi Vincent,
You meant I should follow the below mentioned link
http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Cloud_OpenStack_Quickstart
to start installation of OpenStack once I have installed OpenSuse 12.3 ?
I meant running the following commands (assuming that you're using the Cloud:OpenStack:Folsom repo, as mentioned later in this mail): 1) zypper in openstack-quickstart 2) openstack-quickstart-demosetup This should install and setup everything so that you end up with a cloud running on the computer. You can look at the openstack-quickstart-demosetup script to learn what it does.
I am going to install OpenSuSE 12.3 as a VM on a Xen-Server. I also need to add this repository via zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Cloud:/OpenStack:/Folsom/openSUSE_... to install OpenStack packages ?
I am little confused on the last section that you mentioned which is to use packages from - https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=Cloud%3AOpenStack%3AFolsom
This is the OBS project that you should add with the "zypper ar" command that you wrote above. And you should make sure to use packages from this project (especially python-keystoneclient and python-cinderclient) until the first update we sent for OpenStack packages will be out (should be the case in the next few days). If you're not comfortable with zypper there's some good doc on the wiki: http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Zypper
Can you please elaborate and point me to a step by step documentation link to install OpenStack ?
We don't have a step by step doc specific to openSUSE to install OpenStack right now, but the upstream OpenStack documentation should work rather well. Cheers, Vincent

It will setup some basic stuff for this. As I mentioned earlier, it's really just a quick & dirty way to setup OpenStack. It will probably not configure things the way you'd like -- if you have some specific setup in mind, better to do it by hand.

It will probably not configure things the way you'd like -- if you have some specific setup in mind, better to do it by hand. Ok. Let me see whether the basic stuffs works for me. I have a specific setup in mind where in I can launch a VM and do dynamic provisioning of VMs as and when required.

These two actually reference the same Cloud:OpenStack:Folsom repository. The first is the open-build-service side of things which has links to the 2nd under Repositories / openSUSE_12.3 Ciao Bernhard M. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-cloud+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-cloud+owner@opensuse.org

Okay, so we're talking about the same thing: first link points to the OBS for Cloud:OpenStack:Folsom. It gives you information about the packages there, and also contains links to repositories for different versions of openSUSE/SLE. Including the link to the 12.3 repository, which is the second link in your mail. So there's only one repository we're discussing about :-) Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-cloud+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-cloud+owner@opensuse.org

Thanks Vincent. I am now installing OpenStack demosetup from the repository mentioned by you :-) Will post questions if I run into problems.
