Install and configure for Ubuntu

This section describes how to install and configure the openstack service for Ubuntu 14.04 (LTS).

Prerequisites

Before you install and configure the openstack service, you must create a database, service credentials, and API endpoints.

1. To create the database, complete these steps:

   • Use the database access client to connect to the database server as the root user:

     $ mysql -u root -p
     

   • Create the manila-tempest-plugin database:

     CREATE DATABASE manila-tempest-plugin;
     

   • Grant proper access to the manila-tempest-plugin database:

     GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON manila-tempest-plugin.* TO 'manila-tempest-plugin'@'localhost' \
       IDENTIFIED BY 'MANILA-TEMPEST-PLUGIN_DBPASS';
     GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON manila-tempest-plugin.* TO 'manila-tempest-plugin'@'%' \
       IDENTIFIED BY 'MANILA-TEMPEST-PLUGIN_DBPASS';
     

     Replace MANILA-TEMPEST-PLUGIN_DBPASS with a suitable password.

   • Exit the database access client.

     exit;
     

2. Source the admin credentials to gain access to admin-only CLI commands:

   $ . admin-openrc
   

3. To create the service credentials, complete these steps:

   • Create the manila-tempest-plugin user:

     $ openstack user create --domain default --password-prompt manila-tempest-plugin
     

   • Add the admin role to the manila-tempest-plugin user:

     $ openstack role add --project service --user manila-tempest-plugin admin
     

   • Create the manila-tempest-plugin service entities:

     $ openstack service create --name manila-tempest-plugin --description "openstack" openstack
     

4. Create the openstack service API endpoints:

   $ openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne \
     openstack public http://controller:XXXX/vY/%\(tenant_id\)s
   $ openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne \
     openstack internal http://controller:XXXX/vY/%\(tenant_id\)s
   $ openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne \
     openstack admin http://controller:XXXX/vY/%\(tenant_id\)s
   

Install and configure components

1. Install the packages:

   # apt-get update
   
   # apt-get install
   

2. Edit the /etc/manila-tempest-plugin/manila-tempest-plugin.conf file and complete the following actions:

   • In the [database] section, configure database access:

     [database]
     ...
     connection = mysql+pymysql://manila-tempest-plugin:MANILA-TEMPEST-PLUGIN_DBPASS@controller/manila-tempest-plugin
     

Finalize installation

Restart the openstack services:

# service openstack-manila-tempest-plugin-api restart
