Getting Started with OpenStack on Oracle Linux and Oracle VM hands-on Lab 1

Recently began to learn OpenStack, because there is no environment, so do not know how to get started, so download the OpenStack for Oracle Linux version, ready to play (with Oracle account, hehe). This reference is still a lot of information on the Oracle website, I refer to the Ronen Kofman hands-on lab:getting Started with OpenStack on Oracle Linux and Oracle VM , the link is as follows:

It is interesting to see the original text for use with OpenStack for Oracle Linux.

This lab mainly describes how to install OpenStack on Oracle Linux and uses some of the main features of OpenStack. The main tool is Oracle's virtual machine software VM VirtualBox.

First of all, do the translation according to the original text:

Introduced:

This article describes in detail the hands-on Lab 9870 that Oracle made in 2014 open world.

OpenStack is an open source cloud management software that has now become one of the most popular open source projects and has more than 2000 developers in different fields contributing to OpenStack. OpenStack provides a scalable, portable architecture for building private and public clouds. Users can use their own technology selectivity to select a wide variety of components including networking, storage and computing power to build and deploy OpenStack.

This lab will take you through the installation of the OpenStack Icehouse version and experiment with some of the main features of the software. This lab is specifically designed to run on an Oracle VM VirtualBox virtual machine clock, allowing you to run OpenStack without a server or storage condition.

Two options for doing this lab:

There are two options available for you to complete this lab:

The "short version.", I call it lite. In this release, a VM with OpenStack installed on Oracle Linux 6.5 has been built and provided to you. After accepting the Oracle License Agreement, you can download this VM directly and choose link Oracle OpenStack for Oracle Linux VirtualBox vm (download image f or hands-on Lab-short version).

If you do not want to try the installation and configuration steps, this VM is very useful for you and it will save you the time it takes to install the configuration. If you choose it, you do not need to have any Internet connection to complete the lab after you download the VM mentioned above. And you can go straight to the seventh step "Installing and Configuring OpenStack Icehouse" section (modify Novncproxy_base_url parameter), complete the changes Hu, direct Exercise 1 Exercise 1. And you do not need to upload images to the VM (Step 2 of Exercise 1) as there are already pictures uploaded to the VM.

The "long version.", I call it the full version. This version requires you to have an Internet network connection. If you choose this version, you must complete the "Creating the Oracle VM VirtualBox Virtual Machine", "Installing and configuring Oracle VM 3.3.1" and "I" before you begin the exercise. Nstalling and configuring OpenStack Icehouse "These chapters before you can start practicing.

This lab is comprehensive and contains many exercises. The first exercise helps you explore basic OpenStack operations. The next exercises Explore network functions, storage capabilities, and user interaction. It may take a few hours to complete all the exercises. Of course, you can also choose the parts you are interested in to complete them, and finish the rest of the exercises at other times. These exercises are independent and have no sequential continuity.

Today is the first step: building an Oracle VirtualBox virtual Machine

1. First, you need to start the Oracle VM VirtualBox and build a VM, which has the following features:

Type: Linux version:oracle Linux (64-bit)

Memory: 4 GB

Cpu:2

Network: A network is configured as "Bridge" and allows Internet network access to this VM.

HDD: 50GB, and automatically assigned.

2. Download the Oracle VM 3.3.1 Media Pack for x86, download from Edelivery.oracle.com/linux and mount it to your virtual machine.

After the virtual machine is established, it is basically as follows:

Well, it's here today, and the next chapter goes on tomorrow.
