On the controller node :
apt install -y openstack-dashboard
Update configurations as shown below in /etc/openstack-dashboard/local_settings.py
OPENSTACK_HOST = "controller"
You will find two entries of the following configuration – Change the one at the beginning of file
ALLOWED_HOSTS = 'controller'
Uncomment and update the configuration for session engine
SESSION_ENGINE = 'django.contrib.sessions.backends.cache'
Update CACHES configuration – Replaced 127.0.0.1 with ‘controller’
CACHES = {
'default': {
'BACKEND': 'django.core.cache.backends.memcached.MemcachedCache',
'LOCATION': 'controller:11211',
},
}
Add the following configurations
OPENSTACK_KEYSTONE_URL = "http://%s:5000/v3" % OPENSTACK_HOST
OPENSTACK_KEYSTONE_MULTIDOMAIN_SUPPORT = True
OPENSTACK_API_VERSIONS = { "identity": 3, "image": 2, "volume": 3, }
OPENSTACK_KEYSTONE_DEFAULT_DOMAIN = "Default"
OPENSTACK_KEYSTONE_DEFAULT_ROLE = "user"
Updated the following configuration in OPENSTACK_NEUTRON_NETWORK settings
OPENSTACK_NEUTRON_NETWORK = {
...
'enable_fip_topology_check': False,
...
'enable_ipv6': False,
...
}
Added the following to OPENSTACK_NEUTRON_NETWORK settings
OPENSTACK_NEUTRON_NETWORK = {
...
'enable_lb': False,
'enable_firewall': False,
'enable_vpn': False
}
Update time zone configuration
TIME_ZONE = "Asia/Kolkata"
Restart apache
systemctl reload apache2.service
If you plan to access the dashboard from a different system ensure ‘controller’ resolves to the management IP of the Openstack Host. In my case added one entry
10.99.1.3 controller
in my laptop C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file.
Access the dashboard, Domain = default, username is admin (or) homeuser, password is ‘password’ (credentials used while bootstrapping / installing)
Default landing page
Just a personal choice, switched to default theme (right top corner)
In the above overview we find that quotas as set to lower values – Change them
Admin -> System -> Defaults from LHS menu.
Then click on “Update Deafults” button on right top corner.
Update the values and clieck on “Update Defaults” at bottom on dialog to save.
