In this installation guide, we cover the step-by-step process of installing Openstack Icehouse on Ubuntu.

OpenStack-Icehouse-Installation

In this installation guide, we cover the step-by-step process of installing Openstack Icehouse on Ubuntu 14.04. We consider a multi-node architecture with Openstack Networking (Neutron) that requires three node types:

• Controller Node that runs management services (keystone, Horizon…) needed for OpenStack to function.

• Network Node that runs networking services and is responsible for virtual network provisioning and for connecting virtual machines to external networks.

• Compute Node that runs the virtual machine instances in OpenStack.

We have deployed a single compute node (see the Figure below) but you can simply add more compute nodes to our multi-node installation, if needed.

The Installation guide is available here OpenStack-Icehouse-Installation.

If you want to create your first instance with Neutron, follow the instructions in our VM creation guide available here Create-First-Instance-with-Neutron.

Not able to ping or SSH to the instances from the router name space. But instance can ping the router

Hi,

I followed your installation guide but the instance is not reachable through ping or ssh from the router or dhcp name spaces. But the instance can ping the router and also the other instances in the same subnet. Please see the details below.

Install Software on Compute Node

Hi

I am a noobie as far as openstack with nebula is concerned, I last set up openstack in about 2007 using nova network. After looking through this guide I was wondering how do I install the software on the compute node with no internet connecting interface, do I install the software and then reset the interfaces to the ip addresses on the diagram the 10.0.0.31 & the 10.0.1.31 or do I need a temporary third nic just for the setup portion of the guide. If I am missing something really obvious please forgive me for my naivety.

Any help would be welcome

Thanks

Brendan

what is your graph maker?

Hi,may i ask you which graph maker are you use to make those figures?

nova-api & nova-compute should install in ComputeNode

Hello,I think nova-api and nova-compute should install in CompouteNode,
but OpenStack-Icehouse-Installation.rst not point,are you missing write it out?

the anchor is not working

hi,thank you for sharing this nice document!
but just one thing is not so good,its content anchor is not working when i reading it,
can you fix it?or why it is not working?
