Now that we have a multi-node OpenStack environment spun up very easily using Vagrant, we can now take this further by using Vagrant to spin up OpenStack instances too using the Vagrant OpenStack P...
Cloud brains at HP, Red Hat, Piston, spill beans on the weak link in the OpenStack cloud
By Jack Clark, 13 May 2014
The OpenStack community is full of helpful tutorials to help you with installing, deploying, and managing your open source cloud.
"In this multi-part walkthrough series, I intend to dive into the various components of the OpenStack Neutron project, and to also provide working examples of multiple networking configurations for clouds built with Rackspace Private Cloud powered by OpenStack on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. When possible, I’ll provide configuration file examples for those following along on an install from source."
Having successfully installed OpenStack all-in-one with PackStack, I started to try out the multi-node deployment. It ended up much longer time than I thought
I was looking for an easy way to quickly deploy Openstack on my CentOS environment, I found that there are many tools available to accomplish this in Ubuntu but very few for CentOS.
This is a community to learn more about how OpenStack can be used with VMware technologies including vSphere, NSX, VMware Virtual SAN, etc.
A few months ago I put a good amount of working into learning more about OpenStack Swift and how to deploy it. I used Ansible as my configuration management system, and called the whole project Swiftacular.
"Rackspace Private Cloud, and OpenStack on its own, can be a formidable set of software to install. Rackspace Private Cloud uses Chef to deploy OpenStack, and while Chef itself has a high learning curve, its use does make deploying OpenStack easier and more scalable.
Despite this, I find a lot of installation confusion comes from how to setup the virtual machines. How many CPUs do I allocate? How much RAM do I allocate? How much storage should there be? How many NICs do I need and on what networks? Many people may give up at this point or attempt an install with incorrect virtual machine configurations which ruins their experience. However, Vagrant by Hashicorp makes it very easy to define the virtual machines all within a simple text file."
