Overview
In this article we will setup an OpenStack environment based off Newton using the Red Hat OpenStack Platform. OpenStack is OpenStack but every distribution differs in what capabilities or technologies are supported and how OpenStack is installed, configured as well as upgraded.
The Red Hat OpenStack Platform uses OpenStack director based on the TripleO (OpenStack on OpenStack) project to install, configure and update OpenStack. Director is a lifecycle management tool for OpenStack. Red Hat’s approach is to make OpenStack easy to manage, without compromising on the “Open” part of OpenStack. If management of OpenStack can be simpler and the learning curve brought down then it has a real chance to be the next-gen virtualization platform. What company wouldn’t want to be able to consume their internal IT resources like using AWS, GCE or Azure if they didn’t give up anything to do so? We aren’t there yet but Red Hat is making bold strides and as you will see in this article, is on a journey to make OpenStack consumable for everyone!
Red Hat OpenStack Platform
The Red Hat OpenStack platform uses director to build, manage and upgrade Red Hat OpenStack. Director is in fact a minimal OpenStack deployment itself, with everything needed to deploy OpenStack. The main piece outside of the OpenStack core (Nova, Neutron, Glance, Swift and Heat) is Ironic. The Ironic project is focused on baremetal-as-a-service.
Director allows you to add physical nodes to Ironic and assign them OpenStack roles: compute, control, storage, network, etc. Once roles are assigned an OpenStack environment can be deployed, upgraded and even scaled. As mentioned director is a complete life-cycle management tool that uses OpenStack to manage OpenStack.
In this article we will deploy director (undercloud) on a single VM. We will add three baremetal nodes (VMs) and then deploy OpenStack (overcloud) in a minimal configuration (1 controller node and 1 compute node). I am able to run this on a laptop with just 12GB RAM.
Lab Environment
My idea for this configuration was build the most minimal OpenStack environment possible, something that would run on my laptop with just 12GB RAM using Red Hat OpenStack Director. In the end this experiment was successful and the configuration used is as follows:
- KVM Hypervisor Physical Laptop: RHEL 7.3, CentOS or Fedora, Dual core, 12 GB RAM and 250GB disk
- Undercloud VM: RHEL 7.3, 2x vCPUs, 4GB RAM, 1 x NIC 8(provisioning), 1 x NIC (external) and 40GB disk
- Overcloud Controller VM: RHEL 7.3, 2 x vCPUs, 6GB RAM, 1 x NIC (provisioning), 2 x NICs (external) and 30GB disk
- Overcloud Compute VM: RHEL 7.3, 2 x vCPU, 4GB RAM, 1 x NIC (provisioning), 2 x NICs (external) and 20GB disk
Networking Setup
In this configuration we are using virtual networks provided by the hypervisor host (my laptop). Create provisioning and external networks on KVM Hypervisor host. Ensure that NAT forwarding is enabled and DHCP is disabled on the external network. We run OpenStack overcloud on the external network. The provisioning network should be non-routable and DHCP disabled. The undercloud will handle DHCP services for the provisioning network and other IPs will be statically assigned.
[Hypervisor]
Create external network for the overcloud.
[ktenzer@ktenzer ~]$ cat > /tmp/external.xml <<EOF
<network>
<name>external</name>
<forward mode='nat'>
<nat> <port start='1024' end='65535'/>
</nat>
</forward>
<ip address='192.168.122.1' netmask='255.255.255.0'>
</ip>
</network>
Note: hypervisor is 192.168.122.1 and reachable via this IP from undercloud.
[ktenzer@ktenzer ~]$ sudo virsh net-define /tmp/external.xml [ktenzer@ktenzer ~]$ sudo virsh net-autostart external [ktenzer@ktenzer ~]$ sudo virsh net-start external
Create provisioning network for undercloud.
Note: gateway is 192.168.126.254 as we will use 192.168.126.1 as IP for the VM running our undercloud.
[ktenzer@ktenzer ~]$ cat > /tmp/provisioning.xml <<EOF <network> <name>provisioning</name> <ip address='192.168.126.254' netmask='255.255.255.0'> </ip> </network>
[ktenzer@ktenzer ~]$ sudo virsh net-define /tmp/provisioning.xml [ktenzer@ktenzer ~]$ sudo virsh net-autostart provisioning [ktenzer@ktenzer ~]$ sudo virsh net-start provisioning
Deploy Undercloud
First install Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 7.3 on undercloud VM. Register with subscription manager and configure required RPM repositories for Red Hat OpenStack Platform.
[Undercloud]
[root@director ~]# subscription-manager register
[root@director ~]#subscription-manager list --available \ subscription-manager attach --pool=
[root@director ~]# subscription-manager repos --disable=*
[root@director ~]# subscription-manager repos --enable=rhel-7-server-rpms \ --enable=rhel-7-server-extras-rpms \ --enable=rhel-7-server-rh-common-rpms \ --enable=rhel-ha-for-rhel-7-server-rpms \ --enable=rhel-7-server-openstack-10-rpms
Update all pacakges and reboot.
[root@director ~]# yum update -y
[root@director ~]# systemctl reboot
Install Director Packages.
[root@director ~]# yum install -y python-tripleoclient
Ensure host is defined in /etc/hosts.
[root@director ~]# vi /etc/hosts 192.168.122.90 ospd.lab.com ospd
Create Stack User.
[root@director ~]# useradd stack [root@director ~]# passwd stack # specify a password
Configure user with sudo permissions.
[root@director ~]# echo "stack ALL=(root) NOPASSWD:ALL" | tee -a /etc/sudoers.d/stack [root@director ~]# chmod 0440 /etc/sudoers.d/stack
Switch to new stack user.
[root@director ~]# su - stack [stack@director ~]$
Create directories for images and templates. Images are used to boot initial systems and provide baseline OS. Templates are used to customize deployment.
[stack@director ~]$ mkdir ~/images
[stack@director ~]$ mkdir ~/templates
Configure Director using the sample.
[stack@director ~]$ cp /usr/share/instack-undercloud/undercloud.conf.sample \ ~/undercloud.conf
In my environment the 192.168.126.0/24 network is the undercloud network and used for provisioning as well as deploying the overcloud.
[stack@undercloud ~]$ vi ~/undercloud.conf [DEFAULT] local_ip = 192.168.126.1/24 undercloud_public_vip = 192.168.126.2 undercloud_admin_vip = 192.168.126.3 local_interface = eth1 masquerade_network = 192.168.126.0/24 dhcp_start = 192.168.126.100 dhcp_end = 192.168.126.150 network_cidr = 192.168.126.0/24 network_gateway = 192.168.126.1 inspection_iprange = 192.168.126.130,192.168.126.99 generate_service_certificate = true certificate_generation_ca = local

Deploy Overcloud
There are two ways to deploy overcloud 1) default 2) customize. You will pretty much always want to customize your deployment but for starting out the default method can be a good way to simplify things and rule out potential problems. I recommend always doing default install just to get a baseline working environment and then throwing it away, redeploying with a customized install
[Undercloud]
Option 1: Default Deployment
The default deployment will put the overcloud on the provisioning network. That means you end up with one network hosting both undercloud and overcloud. The external network is not used.
[stack@odpd ~]$ openstack overcloud deploy --templates --control-scale 1 \ --compute-scale 1 --neutron-tunnel-types vxlan --neutron-network-type vxlan
Option 2: Customized Deployment
The really nice thing about director is you have a high degree of customization. In this example we are setting overcloud up on a single 192.168.122.0/24 network. However normally you would have separate networks for OpenStack management, API, public, storage, etc.

Troubleshooting Deployment
Let’s face it in OpenStack there is a lot that can go wrong. I like this quote from Dirk Wallerstorfer.
“In short, OpenStack networking is a lot like Venice—there are masquerades and bridges all over the place!”
-Dirk Wallerstorfer
source: https://www.dynatrace.com/blog/openstack-network-mystery-2-bytes-cost-me-two-days-of-trouble/
[Undercloud]
Red Hat is making it much easier to troubleshoot deployment problems.While the deployment is running you can follow along in Heat by showing nested steps.
[stack@odpd ~]$ heat stack-list --show-nested
If for some reason the deployment fails, there is now a command to gather up all the information to make it really easy to find out what happened.
[stack@odpd ~]$ openstack stack failures list --long overcloud
Summary
OpenStack is the way of the future for virtualization platforms and I think in the future many traditional virtualization environments will be moving to OpenStack. The choice is simple either they will stay on-premise and become OpenStack or move to public cloud. Of course there will be those that stick with traditional virtualization, there are still lots and lots of mainframes around but clear trend will be to public cloud or OpenStack. The only thing holding OpenStack back is complexity and manageability. Red Hat is focused on making OpenStack simple without losing the “Open” in OpenStack. In other words without compromising on what makes OpenStack a great cloud computing platform. As you have seen in this article Red Hat OpenStack Platform is making great strides and the fact that you can setup an OpenStack environment using enterprise production grade tooling on a 12GB RAM laptop is a good sign.
Happy OpenStacking!

OpenStack director runs a DHCP and PXE server. You basically configure the VMs to boot from network and then the PXE server (undercloud) installs image. Once this is done they are available and you can deploy openstack overcloud on those nodes and give node a role like conpute or mgmt. The commands above simply create the VMs and add a disk plus setup networking to boot DHCP.

instead of using a laptop, can I deploy 4 VMS on vcenter?
it says to create an external network on the hypervisor. My question is, I will install 4 centos7/thel7 vms and one of them will be KVM/hypervisor. I will install KVM on one of the vm and then will deploy under cloud.
LikeLike
Well if you already have hypervisor of Vms then you dont need an additional one. I had a single bare-metal system so I deployed KVM and on top the VMs but if you have virtualization already you can skip that. Then you just need at minimum 3 VMs (1 for undercloud and 2 for overcloud compute + mgmt).

Hi Keith,
For single vlan deployment, how tagged vlans are created ? did you created in KVM ? please shower some inputs on vlan tagging ( 201 – 204 ) are mentioned in your network-environment.yaml file? , please give some hints on vlan tagging for the overcloud deployment.
LikeLike
My environment was a lab setup so a single physical network, there was no tagging at KVM level. OpenStack overcloud has various networks for example public, API, mgmt, storage, storage mgmt. For each of these vlans are created on the overcloud nodes. If you do “ip a” you will see this. OpenStack uses openvswitch by default to setup the SDN and vlans. This is done automatically by OpenStack director. You simply need to specify the vlans and the interfaces you want to use. Typically for each external network where you have public IPs you will specify interface. The OpenStack communications are all done via SDN and Neutron.

Hi Keith,
Is it mandatory to have a non root user in hypervisor host ? or can I SSH as root user to hypervisor host instead of stack, because I am getting stuck during introspection of overclcloud vms, the introspection runs for long hours before it says socket already closed error , however I sshed as root user to hypervisor and gave root as user name in instack json file , any hint or suggestion for how to do successful introspection would be very helpful for me

Hi Keith,
I am trying to deploy rhel OSP 10 using this guide on KVM hypervisor , I am following steps from your guide , I have no problem till the introspection steps, whenever I am doing introspection it is not successful, that is , when the introspection starts the overcloud node goes to running state and it remains there , it is not automatically goes to shut off state. I think I am missing something here , please let me know some theory / tips behind the introspection step so that I can do successful introspection. I am trying this for 7th time till no success , hopefully after your clarification I will able to deploy successfully

Hi
there is a mis-configuration in udercloud.conf file
you have mentioned
dhcp_start = 192.168.126.100
dhcp_end = 192.168.126.150
and
inspection_iprange = 192.168.126.130,192.168.126.99
So it’s not vaild ……it’s overlapping the range with DHCP.
It should be as following:
dhcp_start = 192.168.126.100
dhcp_end = 192.168.126.150
and
inspection_iprange = 192.168.126.160,192.168.126.199
By the way………..this tutorial is awesome. thanks and keep it up

Hi Ashraf,
Looking at logs you are running into timeouts. Are you running things nested, meaning instrospection is happening on VMs (as blog is doing)? If so can you try disabling firewall on hypervisor. This looks to be communications issue.

Watch out for permissions on the overcloud vm disk files if you have placed them outside of /var/lib/libvirt/images. The best way to make sure VMs are bootable via virsh start overcloud-node1 on the baremetal node.

Hi ,
Please check if you are able to access your overcloud nodes manually .
Also see if your instackenv.json has all details entered correctly .
Then delete the nodes from ironic database #ironic delete-node and rerun #openstack baremetal import –json ~/instackenv.json

Does the “ironic” syntax actually belong to Red Hat Openstack 9 and prior version ? I suppose this guide is built around Red Hat Openstack 10 and, in this way, we should use “baremetal node list” command. Am I right ?

Try creating the networks manually and ensure you are using ‘NAT’. Then try and ping, if this doesnt work something is fundamentally wrong with your setup.

Hi Keith,
Thank you for the clear guide.
I tried to follow the first steps and I stucked somewhere in the internal networking setup.
I created the “external” and “provisioning” networks successfully by using virsh commands.
I then created the Undercloud VM by using Virtualbox.
Under “System” and “Acceleration” I selected “KVM” as “Paravirtualization Interface”.
Under “Network” I selected:
Adapter 1-> “Internal Network” -> Name: provisioning
Adapter 2-> “Internal Network” -> Name: external
I then launched the VM, and configured on the first nic the IP 192.168.122.90 with /24 mask and 192.168.122.1 as gateway.
I am unable to ping the gateway itself.
What I am doing wrong ?

Solved the above networking issue by myself by switching to virt-manager instead of virtualbox. There, it is easier to see networks!

Yeah don’t use virtual box basically;)

Hi, when launching the undercloud installation I obtain the following result:

Sounds like no dns or valid up for the host ocpd.öab.com?

Hi Ktenzer, thanks for the reply! Actually I missconfigured the networks but then I solved by using virt-manager instead of virtualbox. There, I could see “external” and “provisioning” networks much more easier. I still have another question in the meanwhile 🙂

Hi, I completed all parts before the baremetal import, and then I launched:
[stack@ospd ~]$ openstack baremetal import –json ~/instackenv.json
Started Mistral Workflow. Execution ID: 95fa7e74-cfc4-4dc1-847e-d5bd3de967cd
And it stays like that forever..
I checked:
/var/log/ironic/ironic-api.log
/var/log/ironic-inspector/ironic-inspector.log
/var/log/ironic/ironic-conductor.log
and I don’t find anything useful there.
Any suggestions ?

UPDATE: nodes are correctly registered but then it fails to switch them from state “enroll” to state “provide”

Hi ,
