Create Your ownCloud with Open Stack

               Creating Own Cloud  System with CentOS 6.5

Hello Guys,
This is Navneet again I will today writing this blog will help you to build your own cloud with Cent OS and open-stack
 To build it its not a rocket science. its simple follow the

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. Then I found this project packstack, packstack is a utility that uses Puppet modules to deploy various parts of OpenStack on multiple pre-installed servers over SSH automatically using python. I found that Redhat has started contributing to packstack and they have some very good documentation on how to quickly get going. For example, if you are installing an all in one configuration, meaning installing all the openstack modules in one server, you only need to run three commands to get the environment up and running. As of the date of this blog, packstack is only supported on Fedora, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and compatible derivatives of both.

[root@hq-openstack-control ~]# cat /etc/selinux/config
# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system.
# SELINUX= can take one of these three values:
#     enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced.
#     permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing.
#     disabled - No SELinux policy is loaded.
SELINUX=disabled
# SELINUXTYPE= can take one of these two values:
#     targeted - Targeted processes are protected,
#     mls - Multi Level Security protection.
SELINUXTYPE=targeted 

First add the fedora repo – you can also install from github – and install packstack using yum
[root@hq-openstack-control ~]# yum install -y http://rdo.fedorapeople.org/openstack/openstack-grizzly/rdo-release-grizzly-2.noarch.rpm
[root@hq-openstack-control ~]# yum install -y openstack-packstack
Configure NTP on the nodes. This is not a must but is a good to have. Install ntp and sync up with your ntp server. I used a public ntp server in my configuration.
[root@hq-openstack-control ~]# yum install ntp
[root@hq-openstack-control ~]# chkconfig ntpd on
[root@hq-openstack-control ~]# ntpdate pool.ntp.org
[root@hq-openstack-control ~]# /etc/init.d/ntpd start
Now, since I wanted to make modifications to the default packstack install, I generated a file that contained the install configuration. This file is called “answer file” and I put my configuration preferences in it. I then told packstack to use that file to do the install. This answer file is also used if you need to make changes to the openstack cluster, for example if you wanted to add a node. You would use the same process, make changes to the answer file to reflect that a new node has been added and again run packstack and point it to modified the answer file.
I generated the answer file
[root@hq-openstack-control ~]# packstack --gen-answer-file=/root/grizzly_openstack.cfg
[root@hq-openstack-control ~]# vi grizzly_openstack.cfg
The answer file defaults to putting all the openstack modules in one node.
I made changes to ensure that my swift node was installed in my compute node running on a UCS B200 blade. I left the swift proxy node in the control node. Node 172.17.100.71 is my compute node and node 172.17.100.72 is my control node.
# A comma separated list of IP addresses on which to install the
# Swift Storage services, each entry should take the format
# [/dev], for example 127.0.0.1/vdb will install /dev/vdb
# on 127.0.0.1 as a swift storage device(packstack does not create the
# filesystem, you must do this first), if /dev is omitted Packstack
# will create a loopback device for a test setup
CONFIG_SWIFT_STORAGE_HOSTS=172.17.100.71

#The IP address on which to install the Swift proxy service
CONFIG_SWIFT_PROXY_HOSTS=172.17.100.72
I installed Cinder in my compute node.
# The IP address of the server on which to install Cinder
CONFIG_CINDER_HOST=172.17.100.71
I installed nova compute in my compute node. If on a later date I wanted to add a second compute node, I would come make the changes here.
# A comma separated list of IP addresses on which to install the Nova
# Compute services
CONFIG_NOVA_COMPUTE_HOSTS=172.17.100.71
I also set public interface for Nova Network on the control node to be eth0
# Public interface on the Nova network server
CONFIG_NOVA_NETWORK_PUBIF=eth0
And set the private interface for Nova Network dhcp on the control nodes and private interface of the Nova
# Private interface for Flat DHCP on the Nova network server
CONFIG_NOVA_NETWORK_PRIVIF=eth1


# Private interface for Flat DHCP on the Nova compute servers
CONFIG_NOVA_COMPUTE_PRIVIF=eth1
At this point I was done and was ready to start the install. During the install, you will be prompted for the compute nodes root password.
[root@hq-openstack-control ~]# sudo packstack --answer-file=/root/grizzly_openstack.cfg

A few 5-15 minutes later the install will complete.

To log in, you naviage to glance on your browser from http://controler_node_ip. Username isadmin. Password would have been auto generated for you when you created the answer file. You can get it by greping for the keystone password
[root@hq-openstack-control ~]# cat /root/grizzly_openstack.cfg  | grep -i CONFIG_KEYSTONE_ADMIN_PW
CONFIG_KEYSTONE_ADMIN_PW=2asdaf559d32asdfasdfa234bd1
and thats it.

Open go to another system open web browser and type the ip address of machine like 172.16.100.72 .

and you will find some thing like this enter your credentials and enjoy like
user:admin password in my case
2asdaf559d32asdfasdfa234bd1
