Description Andrew Dahms 2018-07-04 23:07:29 UTC
Red Hat CloudForms 4.7 adds the ability to discover OpenStack cloud and infrastructure providers. Two procedures must be added to Managing Providers to outline how to do so.

Comment 1 Gilles Dubreuil 2018-07-18 06:34:37 UTC
The discovery feature for OpenStack is currently only available for the infra provider.

The process scan a network segment searching for the baremetal (Ironic) service which runs by default on prot 6385. Currently the discovery won't work if the service has been moved to a different port.

Select "Compute -> Infrastructure -> Providers" and then Select "Configuration -> Discover Infrastructure Providers" option.

Make sure the "Openstack infra" box is selected in the Discover section.
Then provide a network range, for instance from "192.0.2.1" to "192.0.2.10".
Then hit the "start" button. 

Please see provided screen capture.

Hi Gilles,

Thank you for the information!

This is great, and we'll use this in our work on the documentation.

Many thanks for the excellent input.

Kind regards,
