Once Openstack cloud is deployed, user/admin needs to perform some steps to conclude installation is successful and cloud is accessible. Let us walkthrough some of steps:
Verify the API
- Determine the name of the utility container:
# lxc-ls | grep utility infra1_utility_container-111111
- Access the utility container:
# lxc-attach -n infra1_utility_container-111111
- Source the
admintenant credentials:# . ~/openrc
- Run any Openstack command
# openstack user list # openstack project list
Verify the Web GUI (Horizon dashboard)
- external_lb_vip_address option in the /etc/openstack_deploy/openstack_user_config.yml file will give the horizon dashboard IP address. The Dashboard uses HTTPS on port 443.
- keystone_auth_admin_password option in the /etc/openstack_deploy/user_secrets.yml file will give the password for admin user to login to dashboard.
