OpenStack tenant configuration

We strongly advise you to dedicate an OpenStack tenant to tripleo-helper. You will need the following configuration in the tenant:

• a secgroup too allow the incoming SSH connections:

  nova secgroup-create ssh 'SSH'
  nova secgroup-add-rule ssh tcp 22 22 0.0.0.0/0
  

• a network called private with a subnet called private (192.168.1.0/24):

  neutron net-create private
  neutron subnet-create private 192.168.1.0/24 --name private --dns-nameserver 8.8.8.8
  

• a router called router with a public interface and an interface on the private network:

  neutron router-create router
  neutron router-gateway-set $(neutron router-show router -F id -f value) $(neutron net-show public -F id -f value)
  neutron router-interface-add $(neutron router-show router -F id -f value) $(neutron subnet-show private -F id -f value)
  

• two floating IP:

  neutron floatingip-create $(neutron net-show public -F id -f value)
  neutron floatingip-create $(neutron net-show public -F id -f value)
  

• a glance image of ipxe called ipxe.usb:

  curl -O http://boot.ipxe.org/ipxe.usb
  glance image-create --name ipxe.usb \
  --disk-format raw --container-format bare < ipxe.usb
  

• you need to create a SSH key without password and register it in your configuration file (ssh.private_key). You should then create a keypair with the associated SSH key and store its name in provisioner.keypair.
