Install Packstack : It’s utility that uses Puppet modules to deploy various parts of OpenStack

yum -y install openstack-packstack

Step 5:

               

Generate Packstack Answer File OR command used direct packstack

   

packstack --gen-answer-file=opnstacktest-answere-file.txt

vi opnstacktest-answere-file.txt

Change:

           

CONFIG_DEFAULT_PASSWORD=server

# Specify 'y' to install OpenStack Object Storage (swift). ['y', 'n']

CONFIG_SWIFT_INSTALL=n

# Specify 'y' to install OpenStack Metering (ceilometer). ['y', 'n']

CONFIG_CEILOMETER_INSTALL=n

# Specify 'y' to install OpenStack Telemetry Alarming (Aodh). Note

# Aodh requires Ceilometer to be installed as well. ['y', 'n']

CONFIG_AODH_INSTALL=n

# Specify 'y' to install Nagios to monitor OpenStack hosts. Nagios

# provides additional tools for monitoring the OpenStack environment.

# ['y', 'n']

CONFIG_NAGIOS_INSTALL=n

# Server on which to install OpenStack services specific to the

# controller role (for example, API servers or dashboard).

CONFIG_CONTROLLER_HOST=172.17.20.100

# List the servers on which to install the Compute service.

CONFIG_COMPUTE_HOSTS=172.17.20.100

# List of servers on which to install the network service such as

# Compute networking (nova network) or OpenStack Networking (neutron).

CONFIG_NETWORK_HOSTS=172.17.20.100

# Specify 'y' to provision for demo usage and testing. ['y', 'n']

CONFIG_PROVISION_DEMO=n
