Lab-28:Deploying Openstack Mitaka in VirtualBox

by sunnynetwork

For a long time I wanted to deploy Openstack in a Virtual box this became true after I purchased a new laptop with sufficient RAM

Precondition:

My laptop has Windows 7 64-bit, 16 GB RAM.

Download CentOS 7 virtual box image from this link. I downloaded 7.1-1511. Images come with usrname:osboxes, password:osboxes.org and root passward:oxboxes.org

Download virtualBox from this link.Start VirtualBox with CentOS image, I have given it 4 GB RAM

I have not changed network setting in VirtualBox, it is using default NAT mode. My VM came up with interface enp0s3 and IP address 10.0.2.15.

Make sure you can ping internet using domain name.

Follow below steps to prepare machine for Openstack deployment

Install yum-utils on both nodes

$yum install -y yum-utils

Set SELINUX in permissive mode on both nodes , edit file /etc/selinux/config

SELINUX=permissive

Disable Network Manager on both nodes

$systemctl disable NetworkManager

Disable firewall on both nodes

$systemctl disable firewalld

Perform update on both nodes

$yum update -y

reboot VM

$reboot

Set hostname

$hostnamectl set-hostname mitaka

Edit /etc/hosts with fqdn

[root@controller ~]# cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1   localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
::1         localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
10.0.2.15  mitaka.cloud.net mitaka

Try this link or below commands to install packstack

$sudo yum install -y centos-release-openstack-mitaka
$sudo yum update -y
$sudo yum install -y openstack-packstack

Procedure:
