How can I install Tacker service while i have installed other openstack services using packstack?
I have tried the tacker using devstack(from the ground up) but with devstack I don't have floating ip address and others can not ping or ssh to my openstack instances!
Thanks
Best regards

I am a bit of a noob, and I am trying to install openstack (xena) on 3 debian machine, respectively named node1, node2 and node3.
By default, all those machines have a fixed ip address (in the dhcp server):
node1: 172.0.16.250
node2: 172.0.16.251
node3: 172.0.16.252
---
gateway: 172.0.16.2
mask: 255.240.0.0
---
dhcp server start->finish: 172.0.16.10 -> 172.0.16.249
My goal is to simply test openstack. I want to install the infra on node1, compute and storage on node2 & node3.
While following the installation procedure here, I have to add virtual network. The 3 computers only have 1 ethernet connection each. I use this configuration example for my nodes.
When restarting the node, I do not have any connection to internet anymore, nor to the local network.
I understand that I am doing something wrong, and I would like to contact internet from these machines, and contact them from any point in my LAN, so I can install openstack with ansible.
The steps I am following : https://docs.openstack.org/project-deploy-guide/openstack-ansible/latest/deploymenthost.html
If you are ruuning on Hypervisor like Virtualbox try to add a dedicated nat-mode interface for internet access. and multiple interface for your bridges like br-mgmt br-vxlan and ..
I have virtualbox 6.1 running a ubuntu 20.04 LTS guest on a windows 10 host.
I ran a jupyter notebook on the ubuntu guest. and it gave me this output
http://localhost:8888/?token=749e04f283016d.......
or http://127.0.0.1:8888/?token=749e04f283016d.......
I got to know that I have to setup host-only adapter to access the page on windows 10 browser so I have setup host-only adapter along with NAT adapter for the ubuntu guest.
accessing-your-virtualbox-guest-from-your-host-os
Post that I took the host-only adapter interface IP address using ip a command in ubuntu guest and I am able to ping guest from host as well using that IP. But when I replaced it in the above url, I am still unable to access the link and browser running on windows host says ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED.
What additional setup should I do to access the jupyter page from windows host.
I figured it out from the following post which tells the same thing about ipython notebook
Install IPython on Ubuntu 12.04 VirtualBox Guest and use it from the browser on the Windows Hostenter link description here
and finding out from this answer the main difference between jupyter and ipython notebooks.
What-is-the-difference-between-Jupyter-and-IPython-Notebook
The key thing to note here is that many applications when started eg. mongodb are accessible only on loopback interface IPs(localhost, 127.0.0.1) only. the reason being to avoid exposing by mistake any application on public IPs which u might have installed for testing, etc. So, in this case all you have to is generate a config file for jupyter server using :
jupyter notebook --generate-config
which will generate config file :
~/.jupyter/jupyter_notebook_config.py
where you have to change the following line:
c.NotebookApp.ip="localhost"
to
c.Notebook.ip="0.0.0.0" #for all IPs
Now run the jupyter notebook again and you will be able to access it on your host and even any interface IPs for any adapter you have setup for your guest OS.
A few things to review when running Jupyter inside a virtual machine.
Make sure you have added the Jupyter's port (i.e., 8888) to your Ubuntu firewall
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port 8888/tcp
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port 8888/udp
sudo firewall-cmd --reload
When using VirtualBox you should map ports to the VM.
I'm trying to install Openstack Mitaka via RDO packstack. I'm following this tutorial. It completely alligns with the official doc.
I'm making sure that I have internet connectivity and that my hostname is resolving (by putting it in the /etc/hosts file). When I install Openstack via packstack --allinone, I see the puppet scripts executing but after a while it hangs.
When I then try to ping my Centos machine it fails. I have no clue why this is as I verified the ping worked before I started the install. It must happen during the packstack installation process.
I have tried now 4 times, reinstalling Centos and Packstack and the behaviour is consistent. I'm running on Virtualbox and my network is in Bridge mode.
Any ideas?
I found out that packstack during installation changed my IP address. Not sure why or how, but it was different at some point in time. So the key is to set a static IP address in the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp0s3 file and also ensure your hostname resolves (by setting it in the /etc/hosts file)
I have two questions regarding devstack.
For the All-In-One Single Machine setup for devstack, there is a setting FLAT_INTERFACE=eth0. Where is this variable FLAT_INTERFACE used in the stack.sh script? I can see the variable FIXED_RANGE is used in stack.sh.
I have a Ubuntu on the company network with DHCP. I installed devstack on this Ubuntu. I want the VMs on this Ubuntu to get the same subnet ip address as the ubuntu PC from the company DHCP. How do I do that? It seems the All-In-One Single Machine setup requires the FIXED_RANGE to be configured and the VMs will get ip address from the FIXED_RANGE, which is not the same as the subnet on the company DHCP.
Check out http://docs.openstack.org/developer/devstack/configuration.html#local-conf at Minimal configuration section, it would guide you about a sample config of you devstack installation.
Mainly it says the following:
Minimal Configuration
While stack.sh is happy to run without a localrc section in local.conf, devlife is better when there are a few minimal variables set. This is an example of a minimal configuration that touches the values that most often need to be set.

I have installed Debian as a VirtualBox guest on Windows XP. Now I have installed ssh and apache on this virtualized Debian yet I couldn't find a way to connect. I have already tried "10.0.0.2", "10.0.2.2" and inet addresses I get from running "ifconfig". (I can get the "it works!" page of apache2 when I try 127.0.0.1 under guest Debian.
I will be greatful for any tips
You're going to want to refer to section 6.4.1 of the manual to set up port forwarding with the default NAT setup.
